My Yoke (poem) Psalm 4:8 – devotional 8/5/2025

Audio Meditation 💕

Psalm 4:8 KJV — I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, Most High God , only makest me dwell in safety.

There is a burden I carry 

It is so heavy 

But the yoke weighs nothing 

Upon my shoulders 

It is as light as a feather 

But the responsibility I feel 

Nothing can measure 

As I do my best Most High King 

To walk like Christ,

Righteous and justly

Fulfilling every assignment You hand to me 

I do this cheerfully 

The work is not exhausting for me

Though it is never ending 

Still I find peace 

When I lay me down to sleep 

I know my soul You keep 

For in You is my safety 

And With You my Good Shepherd 

I shall never want 

And anything I want, probably isnt from You 

My God,

For if  I had everything that pleaseth the flesh of me 

My spirit would be in need 

But You give me everything 

Withhold no good from me 

Your grace is sufficient for me 

And I am blessed to rest in You  each sabbath evening

As I keep it Holy 

That rest  is needed to endure the next week 

But I am even more blessed to know this very thing 

That  everyday there is also a rest in You my King 

From this dark world 

For there is rest 

In Your comforting word 

There is a  rest in the name of You Son 

Yashaya 

In the power of your Holy Spirit 

A rest and a calm You place upon our spirits 

Exactly when we need it as long as to You 

Ahba we stay connected 

Especially thoses moments we fall 

For though we strive for perfection 

Sometimes we drop the ball

Miss the mark, and then the weight feels heavy on our hearts 

As we pray for forgiveness and repent daily Lord 

For a life without Your rest we do not want to come to know 

So I work zealously 

With all the strength within me 

For I know there is a cross only I can carry 

There is a cup only which I can drink 

But I trust You Father, so surely

For You are the Good shepherd 

That will lead me beside the still waters 

Maketh me to lay down in green pastures 

And if needed you will humble me and break me 

So that into darkness I will not wander 

And I thank You for all You give 

And I thank You for all the breaking 

And all the fixing 

For in You I shall never want and find everything I need 

For You have given me a healing word 

And from the prophets I have learned 

And I am still learning 

As on Your Son I am waiting 

For in You I am always trusting 

Underneath Your shadow, my King 

Is my secret place , my refuge my fortress 

As I find rest in precept upon Precept 

And take upon this yoke and burden 

With a heart lowly and meek 

Knowing that it is light for me 

It is so easy for me 

To work and pray without cease 

Lifting up praises continuously 

For I taste and see how Good is my Most High King 

And how blessed I must be 

To trust in Him 

And by His grace 

Be set free , and through my liberty 

Walk like Christ , 

Zealously

Daily

Fulfilling every assignment You give to me 

I do this cheerfully 

The work is not exhausting for me

Though it is never ending 

Still I find peace 

When I lay me down to sleep 

I know my soul You keep 

For You Most High God , 

only 

Makes me dwell in safety 

Faithfully 

💙
