My Heart is Resting

Aug2

My Heart is Resting

My heart is resting, O my God,
I will give thanks and sing;
My heart is at the secret source
Of every precious thing.

Oh, peace of God that passeth thought,
I daily, hourly sing;
My heart is at the secret source
Of every precious thing.

Rivers of Living Water

Jul21

Rivers of Living Water

Rivers of living water,
Rivers that flow from the throne,
Rivers o’erflowing with blessing,
Coming from Jesus alone.

Refrain
Rivers of living water,
Rivers of life so free,
Flowing from Thee, my Savior,
Send now this life through me.

Whoso is thirsty come hither,
Here is abundant supply;
Water transparent as crystal,
Come without money and buy.
Refrain

Cleanse me, oh, cleanse me, my Savior,
Make me a channel today;
Empty me, fill me and use me,
Teach me to trust and obey.
Refrain

Then, and then only, Lord Jesus,
Through me the rivers can flow;
Thus and thus only will others
Learn Thy great fulness to know.
Refrain

Now I surrender to Jesus,
Here I lay all at His feet;
Anything, anywhere only,
Just for His service made meet!
Refrain
