One day I was reading through Psalm 104 and when I came to verse 33, it really jumped out at me.
It read:
“I will sing to the Lord as long as I live;
I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.”
I thought this was a beautiful Scripture and I felt that the rhythm and sentiment of the verse lent itself perfectly well for a poem! Within a matter of seconds I found myself writing “As Long As I Live.”
