"THEY THAT SEEK THE LORD SHALL NOT WANT ANY GOOD THING."                                                                                                                          Psalm 34:10

Speak softly to my heart Oh Lord, And calm my troubled spirit. Your voice a soothing melody, Oh, I long to hear it. Call me to Your side Oh Lord, And keep me safely there; That I may close by You abide, And never have to fear. Your presence close around me, A comfort to my soul. Your peace at once surrounds me, And draws me to the fold. Away from You is turmoil, But where You are is home. As long as I will seek You, I will never be alone.
