Oh how I love my Lord,
He nourishes my soul with his
Sweet grace,
He kindles my heart
With the fire of his love.
I am deeply saddened at my inability
To love him as I should.
For I am inconstant, selfish, and indifferent
To Him.
Though his mercy and faithfulness be like honey,
I have turned to evil, which is
Poison to my soul and hurtful to the
Heart of my Savior.
Oh my loving Savior, how you cry for me;
Your tears, like precious pearls,
Purchase the love of my heart.
How foolish I am to fall from your love;
How foolish I am to belief
deceit over the truth you have revealed
To me.
Though I shall fall I will rise to love again;
Though I will sin,
I will have hope in your saving grace.
You hold my soul as it swings
Within your arms.
It rests in a deep and uninterrupted sleep
Because it knows that your
Love will protect it from
Anything that looks to harm it.
Sleep my soul,
Sleep peacefully in the arms of the Lord.
Dream of the moment when you
Will finally meet Him face to face;
Yes, dream that wonderful dream.
My Lord and Savior shall be
At the fore front of my mind;
My only desire.
Sadly though, I think
And do things contrary to his will,
My vain pleasure taking your throne
Within my heart.
With your grace I will cast
Out such imaginations and inclinations.
There will be no place for them;
No response will be
Given at there first knock on the
Door of my soul.
Make me steadfast oh Lord,
It is your Love and Mercy I Seek.
May I be your bondslave of Love,
And Let nothing severe me from you,
But give me every opportunity to
Grow in love with you.
