Anyone who knows me, knows I love and appreciate good contemporary worship music. I thrill that the present generation has articulated their love and worship for the Lord in such heartfelt and profound ways… But I gotta tell you, we’ll be impoverished if we don’t preserve and use the great legacy of worship music of generations past. This morning I was reminded of one such “heritage song” that we dare not lose! I posted the lyrics for you today and a beautiful instrumental rendition by the Burchfield brothers for your reflection and worship… Anyone…I mean ANYONE who is a devoted follower of Jesus will identify with this song! You will want to set aside some time to enjoy this and simply WORSHIP!!!
“Who can cheer the heart like Jesus
By His presence all divine
True and tender, pure and precious
O, how blest to call Him mine
Chorus
“All that thrills my soul is Jesus
He is more than life to me
And the fairest of ten thousand
In my blessed Lord I see
“Love of Christ so freely given
Grace of God beyond degree
Mercy higher than the heavens
Deeper than the deepest sea
“What a wonderful redemption
Never can a mortal know
Ho my sin, though red like crimson
Can be whiter than the snow
“Every need His hand supplying
Every good in Him I see
On His strength divine relying
He is all in all to me
“By the crystal flowing river
With the ransomed I will sing
And forever and forever
Praise and glorify the King”
Thoro Harris – 1874-1955
