Delight In The Lord 03/25/1994 Love searches through life's agony,
finding places of rest in stormy seas.
In danger of leaving itself behind,
in this day's foaming brine.
It finds safety among sharp coral reefs,
and peace in calm waters beneath,
It comes to rest on white sandy beaches,
and caresses all the shores it reaches.
Those who encounter it's healing power,
seek it's nourishing substance to devour.
They are fed by it's cleansing waves,
and washed by it's waters that save.
Isaiah 58: 14 Then you shall delight in
the Lord, and I will make you ride upon the
heights of the earth; I will nourish you with
the heritage of Jacob, your father, for the
mouth of the Lord has spoken.
