Oh, to know Your goodness,
Your holiness and grace
to have within my very reach
Your strength to embrace.
Then I shall never doubt,
or fall into dreaded fear
then I shall know what it’s like
to have You always near.
Oh, to understand Your anger,
Your judgments and Your wrath
to seize upon the truth
that leads to Your holy path.
Then I’d mount up on wings,
and like an eagle I’d fly and soar
then I would take off to heaven
and enter thru salvation’s door.
Oh, to find Your perfect rest,
from the weariness deep within
to find Your calm that settles me
when my life is in a tailspin.
Then I shall not be tossed,
by every wave or stormy gust
then I would find my Savior . . .
telling me in Him to always trust!
~~~~~~~~
I had fainted,
unless I had believed
to see the goodness
of the Lord in the land
of the living.
“But these are written,
that ye might believe
that Jesus is the Christ,
the Son of God; and that
believing ye might have life
through his name.”
He maketh the storm a calm,
so that the waves thereof are still.
