i am thinking of time shared with a Dear One this week. i hear her heart echoing in my thoughts, and i am filled with His delight in knowing His truth. she knows. i know. praise Him, in His mercy, in His grace - we know. what simple, divine beauty in knowing. knowing His grace. knowing His love. knowing Him. oh, praise Him! the joy in knowing.


The Valley of Vision, WORSHIP

Glorious God,

It is the flame of my life to worship thee,
the crown and glory of my soul to adore thee,
heavenly pleasure to approach thee.
Give me power by thy Spirit to help me worship now,
that i may forget the world,
be brought into the fullness of life,
be refreshed, be comforted, be blessed.
Give me knowledge of thy goodness
that I might not be over-awed by thy greatness;
Give me Jesus, Son of Man, Son of God,
that I might not be terrified,
but be drawn near with filial love,
with holy boldness;
He is my Mediator, Brother, Interpreter, Branch, Daysman, Lamb;
him I glorify,
in him I am set on high.
Crowns to give I have none,
but what thou hast given I return,
content to feel that everything is mine when it is thine,
and the more fully mine when I have yielded it to thee.
Let me live wholly to my Saviour,
free from distractions,
from carking care,
from hindrances to the pursuit of the narrow way.
I am pardoned through the blood of Jesus -
give me a new sense of it,
continue to pardon me by it,
may I come every day to the fountain,
and every day be washed anew,
that I may worship thee always
in spirit and truth.

I will bless the Lord at all times;
His praise shall continually be in my mouth. Psalm 34:1

as we walk with Him,
May He grant you according to your heart's desire,
And fulfill all your purpose. Psalm 20:4
