Resting in Your Love

“Let all who put their trust in You rejoice. Let them shout for joy forever because You cover them. Let those who love Your name be joyful in You.” (Psalms 5:11).

My life is joyful, in Your love I rest,
Your boundless grace surrounds me, ever blessed.
Though trials rise and storm clouds fill the sky,
In You I stand, unwavering and high.

Your Word sustains me through each passing day,
It feeds my soul, it lights my narrow way.
Each sacred truth brings comfort, peace, and care,
And guides my steps to paths both straight and fair.

Forever, Lord, my heart will cling to You,
In worship pure, to You I’ll remain true.
Through pain and sorrow, hope will still remain,
For with Your strength, I’ll rise beyond all pain.

I trust that You will walk beside me near,
Your love will guide me, calm my every fear.
A Shepherd kind, You guard my every pace,
And lead me gently with unceasing grace.

Your love, O Lord, flows deeper than the sea,
It pours within and fills the depths of me.
No end in sight—forever it will stay,
Through every night, through every dawning day.

In Your embrace, my soul will rest secure,
Your love endures, eternal and pure.
And all my days, I’ll worship You alone,
Until I stand before Your holy throne.
