Hi Polly,
That reminds me of a favorite hymn.....
http://www.cyberhymnal.org/htm/n/e/neartoth.htm
There is a place of quiet rest,
Near to the heart of God.
A place where sin cannot molest,
Near to the heart of God.
Refrain
O Jesus, blest Redeemer,
Sent from the heart of God,
Hold us who wait before Thee
Near to the heart of God.
There is a place of comfort sweet,
Near to the heart of God.
A place where we our Savior meet,
Near to the heart of God.
Refrain
There is a place of full release,
Near to the heart of God.
A place where all is joy and peace,
Near to the heart of God.
I love that hymn too. It has settled my spirit more often than not, when I have allowed the enemy to crowd his way into my soul with frustration!
Praise God for our victory over sin, satan and death!!
I'm Listening to One of my Favorite Midi's that Works on this Dial-Up from the Beloved Song by our Brother Keith Green.
Resurrection Song {Lyrics and Composer: Keith Green}
Hear the bells ringing
They're singing that you can be born again
Here the bells ringing
They're singing Christ is risen from the dead
The angel up on the tombstone
Said He has risen, just as He said
Quickly now, go tell his disciples
That Jesus Christ is no longer dead
Joy to the word, He has risen, hallelujah!
He's risen, hallelujah!
He's risen, hallelujah!
Hear the bells ringing
They're singing that you can be healed right now
Hear the bells ringing, they're singing
Christ, He will reveal it now
The angels, they all surround us
And they are ministering Jesus' power
Quickly now, reach out and receive it
For this could be your glorious hour
Joy to the world, He has risen, hallelujah!
He's risen, hallelujah!
He's risen, hallelujah, hallelujah!
The angel up on the tombstone
Said He has risen, just as He said
Quickly now, go tell his disciples
That Jesus Christ is no longer dead
Joy to the world, He has risen, hallelujah!
He's risen, hallelujah!
He's risen, hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Glory to You, our Wonderful Redeemer and Lord!
In You is All our Salvation and Hope.
Our Heart's Desire is for You to be Glorified Forever!
We Love You, our Sovereign God and King.
All that He Makes and Does is Honest and True:
He Paid the Ransom for His People,
He Ordered His Covenant Kept Forever.
He's So Personal and Holy, Worthy of our Respect.
The Good Life Begins in the Fear or God.
Do that and you'll Know the Blessing of God.
His Hallelujah Lasts Forever! (Ps.111:7-10)
