Delight in God - January 8, 1956


Photo by: Lucrecia Mouser

Delight thyself in Him, my dear,
Who loves and cares for you;
Who sends the sunshine and the rain,
Who gives the sparkling dew.
The desires of the heart shall then,
Be fulfilled every one;
This is the promise of His Word,
His promise shall be done.

How wonderful to know and love,
The one who is Divine;
Who gives to us so many things,
To bless the soul and mind.
When we delight ourselves in Him,
Then every heart’s desire;
Shall be for grace to keep us pure,
To set our souls afire.

No sinful thing can we desire,
When we delight in God;
Who gives us comfort by His staff,
And comforts by His rod.
How lovely and how beautiful,
Our lives can really be;
When we love Him and He loves us,
The Christ of Galilee.
~ J. J. Davis ~
