This is my rest for ever: here will I dwell...Psalm 132:14
Utterly Abandoned
Utterly abandoned to the Holy Ghost
Oh the sinking, sinking, until self is lost
Until the emptied vessel lies broken at His feet
Waiting till His filling shall make the work complete
Utterly abandoned no will of my own:
For time and for eternity, His and His alone;
All my plans and purposes lost in His sweet will
Having nothing, yet in Him all things possessing still
Utterly abandoned tis so sweet to be
Captive in His bonds of love, yet so wondrous free;
Free from sins entanglements, free from doubt and fear
Free from every worry, burden, grief or care
Lo He comes and fills me, Holy Spirit sweet
I, in Him am satisfied I in Him complete
And the light within my soul shall nevermore grow dim
While I keep my covenant - Abandoned unto Him
Author Unknown
Amidst the worlds pains and troubles.... how sweet are His promises
Lo I am with you alway Matt 28:20
Dear reader abandon yourself to Him...there is no better place to rest.
