Solace

We found solace in each other’s arms

Amidst the desolation and deceit

He comforted me with a new design

And all my needs did meet.

He is my eternal God and friend

My prophet, priest and king

Accepting all my fears and doubts

And turning my voice to sing.

I will not fear the darkest hour

He means it for the best

My ransomed soul- He leadeth me

To realms of glorious rest.

I will embrace His peaceful rest

And wait the day of sweet release

Building up my psyche for the final push

When activity will never cease.

Just a moment in your company

Restores my fainting soul

Jesus walk with me today

That I will rampant be…

Solace

There is a place – a precious place… just you and God … if you are not drawn to that place, you are not His… this place is fellowship and solace with the living God, and we are strengthened and renewed daily. There is no self-seeking here.

It is holy ground. It is the place of reverent and holy fear, and also the throne when our requests are heard and answered. It is the place of mercy, where justice and love meet between the wings of angels and the God of all the earth cleanses and strengthened His people.

None dare the approach without the living sacrifice of a Saviour, put to death for our sins and risen as the Living One – once dead and now alive forever. He chooses life and death for every soul, and His will is perfect. We approach with our sacrifice, of a contrite and a broken heart… ruined by sins too many to count, we give ourselves away to Him and become a sacrifice of praise to our dear Lord.

This is spiritual worship. This is the very room of heaven.
