Notes About The Poem

My Greatest Delight

When my heart feels like breaking, And, on this road I’m taking, There comes a fear, dreaded forsaking, Causing such doubt – my soul is shaking! When my soul feels like it is dying, And, on this journey, I’m crying, Longing for solace, so gratifying, But, I feel all alone, beyond unsatisfying. When my spirit feels like I’m lost, Though, on this path, I’ll not count the cost, Because I know Jesus – love I’ll never exhaust… I’m so thankful He sent His spirit at Pentecost! When all hope it gone and I feel so alone, I look to the heavens, where He sits on His throne, Remember the loving Savior that I call my own, Because without Him, I can only grumble and groan. Listen to His spirit sing through the night, In melodies of grace, beauty so bright, When He came to us, our story to write, I realized my Jesus is my life’s greatest delight!
