I love the LORD with all my soul
with all my mind
with all my heart.
All that I am, I owe to HIM,
My life is HIS,
HE may do with itÂ
what pleases HIM.
I put my hand into HIS hand
and look out eagerly to where we will be going.
Though ways seem dark,
HE is the light at my side,
Though days seem lonely,
HE is the shadow at my righthand.
Though circumstances may be against me,
HE will turn them into something good,
Though the air is full of threatening,
HE will bounce off the arrows of the evil one.
I am saved for eternity,
I am set free from fear of death,
I will always live with the LIVING ONE,
I will lavish myself at HIS source,
that is filled with the purest water,
I will put on me a garment of righteousnessÂ
and drape myself in a dress of praise.
The blessing poured out upon me,
I may pass on in a variety of ways.
The richness granted to me,
I may share with whoever crosses my path.
The light that inhabits me,
I may let it shine.
With the love that has been given to me,
I am able to love others.
My expectation comes not from people,
but from HIM alone,
Who created the whole universe
Who is the Redeemer and Renewer of this world
Who has given me a place in HIS most intimate circle
of FATHER, SON and HOLY SPIRIT.
I sense the beating of HIS Father heart,
I am much aware of the nearness of my Redeemer,
and experience the presence of the Comforter,
again and again and again.
There lies an eternity ahead of me
in which HE will dry each tear shed over here,
in which HE will melt away all my painful memories,
and will fulfil all my unfulfilled wishes.
There lies an eternity ahead of me
to thank, to praise, to honour and to worship HIM.
I know GOD is at my side,
so whom shall I fear?!
