"And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved. Lord, by Thy favor Thou has made my mountain to stand strong: Thou didst hide Thy face, and I was troubled" (Psalm 30:6,7).
Prosperity comes and prosperity goes,
And we may be prideful when people applaud.
Our pride, like a cancer, unchecked surely grows;
Humility comes by remembering God.
Remember our Savior has made us to stand.
God freely gave us the gift of His grace.
All that we have is received from His hand.
We surely are troubled if He hides His face.
Lord, only Your favor has prospered our way.
You gave Your best in exchange for our worst.
So grant us prosperity's truest display
With hearts that are humble and putting You first.
