MY JESUS
I've been sad and even to the point of crying
But today I have looked to God and am happy even if I were dying
My Lord is with me and his love will see me through
He has been with me and helped me do what little I do.
My Jesus is there, he has always been
Even when I shunned him he was still my dearest friend.
I see the light, the salvation that God has given and I am redeemed
Riches untold have been given more than I ever dreamed.
My Lord took on the battle and won the victory
With his precious blood, he saved me.
Though I put on his mighty armor to fight the daily fight
Jesus paid the price, and he stands guard over me day and night.
When things of this world weakens me and my head is hanging low
I can always lift up my head and talk to Jesus for he is always there I know.
What love he has bestowed upon me, what sorrow he must endure
For I a lowly sinner, saved by grace by one that is so pure.
When weakness within me causes me to not do my best
My Jesus comforts me and holds me close to his breast
In my quite time, I take his hand and he takes mine
He leads me beside the still waters and how his love for me doth shine.
To thank my Lord, who means everything to me
Would be an impossible task if within my heart he could not see.
I shall strive more each day to give the praise to Jesus for his mercy and grace;
For all I have to do is bow my head in prayer and see his loving face.
