Depths of Love, Heights of Joy
“There are depths of love
That I cannot know
Til I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy
That I may not reach
Til I rest in peace with Thee.
Draw me nearer, nearer,
Nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died;
Draw me nearer, nearer,
Nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.”
Hymn- “I Am Thine, O Lord” – Fanny J. Crosby/ W.H. Doane
Pure Delight
“O the pure delight of a single hour, that before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee my God,
I commune as friend with Friend!”
Hymn- “I Am Thine, O Lord” – by Fanny J. Crosby/ W.H. Doane
Let My Soul Look Up…
“I am Thine O Lord, I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
But I long to rise in the arms of faith,
And be closer drawn to Thee.
Consecrate me now to Thy service Lord,
By the power of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine.”
Hymn- “I Am Thine, O Lord” – Fanny J. Crosby/ W.H. Doane
From a Need to be Accepted
From the love of my own comfort
From the fear of having nothing
From a life of worldly passions
Deliver me O God,
From the need to be understood
And from a need to be accepted
From the fear of being lonely
Deliver me O God,
Deliver me O God,
And I shall not want, no I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness, I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness, I shall not want
From the fear of serving others
Oh, and from the fear of death or trial
And from the fear of humility
Deliver me O God,
And I shall not want
Song Lyrics from “I Shall Not Want” – by Audrey Assad
Since Before The World Began
“In the beginning… the Spirit of God hovered over the waters…”
“… I have loved you with an everlasting love.
Therefore, with loving kindness,
I have drawn you.”
“He chose us in Christ,
[actually selected us for Himself as His own]
Before the world began…”
-Genesis 1:2 – Jeremiah 31:3 – Ephesians 4:1
God Will Wipe All Tears Away
“Tho’ the clouds may hover over us, There’s a bright and golden ray,
It’s the promise that in heaven God shall wipe all tears away.
No more sorrow, no more weeping, Peace and joy will hold full sway,
For beside life’s crystal river, God shall wipe all tears away.
Every care will be forgotten, All our burdens we shall lay,
Safe within the walls of jasper, God shall wipe all tears away.
O the joy of meeting Jesus, Mortal tongue cannot portray,
But we know when we behold Him, God shall wipe all tears away.”
Hymn- “God Shall Wipe All Tears Away” by Antonio L. Haskell
“My Lord ADONAI will wipe away tears from every face…” “He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes…”
– Isaiah 25:8- Revelation 21:4
