HAPPY SABBATH + PRAYER : Father, Draw Me Nearer!

Oh, Thou Who Hearest Prayer

I Acknowledge That Indeed

I Am Flesh - Weak

Daily Dying

Constantly Grieved

Often Crying

And

Come Before Thee

As One Humbled

In The Light Of Your Sacrificial Love

Thankful For Your Grace

Which - To Me -

Is Unmerited Favor

Praising You

For The Gift Of The Faith Of My Jesus

Bowing Before Your Free Mercy

Rejoicing In Your Love That Will Not Let Me Go

Claiming The Promises That Are Eternally True

Glorying In

And

Glorifying The Coming King

Resting In The Comfort

Correction

And

Teaching

Of The Holy Spirit

Walking The Narrow Way

Free

In The Protection Of The Holy Angels

Blessing The Eternal God

Who Is Jealous For My Love

And Saying

I Love You, Lord!

Help Me, Father

To Ever To Lift Up My Voice In Praise

And

Bow My Head In Worship

And

May In Ever Be So

For I Desire To Attain The Right

To Walk Through Heaven's Gate

Beckoned By Him

Who Is The Door!

Lord,

I Desire Cleansed Eyesight

Ordered By Your Oversight!

I Desire To Be Led

And

Sheltered

And

Protected

By Him 

-The Good Shepherd -

Who Gently Leads

The Little Flock

And

Who Carries The Young Ones In His Bosom!

I Desire, Lord

To Rest

In Peace

In The Bright Mansions

In Zion

And 

To Walk

- Unmolested -

On Streets Of Gold

In The Protected Fold!

I Desire To Drink Of The Water

Of The River Of Life

Knowing

That Never Again

Will My Life Know Man's Striving

Nor

The Devil's Strife!

Lord, Please Haste The Day!

Oh, Father

I Desire To Eternally Abide

In That Rest

Under Everlasting Arms

Sheltered With The Blessed

Some Of Whom Will Have Championed The Faith 

With The Martyr's Sacrifice

All 

Having Their Known-Sin Confessed!

Keep Us, Lord, Until The Day!

Father, 

You Are Able

To Prepare A Seat For Me

At Your Welcome Table

And I

- Believing That Your Promise

Can Never Be A Fable -

Ask You To Fix My Heart To Yours

With Christ's Shed-Blood Cable!

I Am Yours, Lord!

Father,

I Beseech You To Draw Me Nearer

And

Help Me To See You More Clearly

And

Hold Your Love To Me More Dearly

For

I Am Eager For The Great Day

When Home Is Where

I Am Forever Living

With You!

In That Name

The Worthy Name

- Jesus Christ The Righteous - 

I Stand And Plead

For

I Have No Other God But Thee!

AMEN.
