NO GREATER LOVE!

Jesus, lover of my soul

In His Grace I am brave and bold,

His beauty I behold

Proclaiming it to the world

 

Troubled thoughts are no more

For He lives inside my door,

Walking on the seashore

He is my gore

 

I am delighting in my Lord

For He is El Shaddai – Almighty God,

His right hand is my Rod

His word is my two-edged sword

 

Dark shadows have flown away

In my Lord there I stay,

My love for Him must never stray

From earth to heaven, He is the way!

The union that subsists between our souls and the person of our Lord, is a narrow pipe through which a thread-like stream may wind its way, it is a channel of amazing depth and breath, along where glorious length a ponderous volume of living water may roll its floods!

WITHOUT GOD!  STILL WATERS

Without God, we are legends in our own mind

Certainly, the blind leading the blind

Never wanting to be sublime

High on worldly things, drugs and wine

 

No comprehension that “Still Waters” run deep

Miserable we are even in our sleep,

Sunlight is radiant, but we only see a peep

Sinking in miry clay, feet after feet

 

If this be your predicament today

Remember what the Lord did say,

Come my child, kneel and pray

I would remove your dismay

 

Still Waters will begin to run again

You will enjoy the sunshine and the rain,

Shadows and darkness from you, He would refrain

Life will go on, but without the strain!

The heart is as insatiable as the grave till Jesus enters it, and then it is a cup full to overflowing.  There is even a fullness in Christ that He alone is the believers all.  The true saint is so completely satisfied with the all-sufficiency of Jesus he thirsts no more – except it be for deeper draughts of the living fountain.

SEE HOW IT SHINES!

In the darkness pain was all around

No one to help, not even a sound,

Evening shadows fell so hard

No comfort to make me glad

 

Tears began to overflow my eyes

Suddenly, an unseen hand wiped it dry

I heard the words, “You are not alone

In my father’s house you have a home

 

Sail on son of mine

See how your future shines,

You dreams are being fulfilled it is stealing apace

Though life’s been rough, you have won the race

 

So sail on into the peace you earned

It was through affliction you have learned,

My love for you will never die

And you know the reason why!”

We have gone through many trials, but never to our detriment, always to our advantage; and the conclusion from our past experience is that He, who has been with us in ninety-nine troubles, will not forsake us in the hundredth!
