From a tape a friend of mine had..... I don't want to esacpe. I don't want to quit. I don't want sympathy. I don't even want a miracle. Just give me Jesus! He is enduringly strong. He is entirely sincere. He is eternally steadfast. He is immoratly gracious. He is imperily powerful. He is impartially merciful. He is the greatest phenomenon that has ever crossed the horizons of the globe. He is God's son. He is the sinner's saviour. He is the captive's ransom. He is the breath of life. He is the centerpiece of civilization. He stands in the solitude of Himself. He is august and He is unique. He is unparralled and He is unprecidented. He is undisputed and He is undefiled. He is unsurpassed and He is unshakeable. He is the lofty idea of philosophy. He is the highest personality and psychology. He is the supreme subject in literature. He is the unavoidable problem in high critism. He is the fundamental doctrine of theology. He is the cornerstone, the capstone, and the stumbling stone of all religions. He is the miracle of the ages. Just give me Jesus! No means measure can define His limitless love. No farreaching telescope can bring in the visibility the coastline of His shoreless supply No barrier can hinder Him from pouring out His blessings. He forgives and He forgets. He creates and He clenses. He restores and He rebuilds. He heals and He helps. He reconciles and He redeems. He comforts and He carries. He lifts and He loves. He is the God of the second chance, the fat chance, the slim chance, the no chance. Just give me Jesus! He discharges debtors. He delivers the captives. He defends the feeble. He blesses the young. He serves the unfortunate. He regards the aged. He rewards the diligent. He beautifies the meek. He is the key to knowledgge. He is the foundation of life. He is the well spring of joy. He is the storehouse of wisdom. He is the foundation of faith. He is the doorway to the deliverance. He is the pathway to peace. He is the roadway to righteousness. He is the gateway to glory. He is the highway to happiness. Just give me Jesus. He supplies strength to the weary. He increases power to the faint. He offers escape to the tempted. He sympathizes with the hurting. He saves the hopeless. He shields the helpless. He sustains the homeless. He gives purpose to the aimless. He gives reason to our meaningless. He gives fufillment to the empty. He gives light in the darkness. Comfort in the lonliness. Fruit in the barrens. Future to the hoplessness. Life to the lifeless. Just give me Jesus! He gaurds the young. He seeks the stray. He finds the lost. He guides the faithful. He rights the wrong. He avenges the abused. He defends the weak. He comforts the oppressed. He welcomes the prodicle. He heals the sick. He clenses the dirty. He beautifies the meek. He restores the failure. He mends the broken. He blesses the poor. He fills the empty. He clothes the naked. He satisfies the hungry. He elevates the humble. He forgives the sinner. He raises the dead. Just give me Jesus! His office is manifold, And His promise is sure. His life is matchless. And His goodness is limitless. His mercy is enough and his grace is sufficient. His reign is righteouisness His yoke is easy. His burden is light. He is imdestructible. He is indescribable. He is incomprehensible. He is inescapeable. HE is invisible. He is irrestible. He is irrefutable. I can't get Him out of my mind, And I can't get Him out of my heart. I can't outlive Him, And I can't live without Him. The pharasies couldn't stand Him but found they couldn't stop Him. Satan tried to tempt Him, but found he couldn't trip Him. Pilot examined Him on trial but found no fault in Him. The Romans crucified Him but couldn't take His life. Death couldn't handle Him and the grave couldn't hold Him. Just give me Jesus! He had no predecessor, and He will have no successor. He is the lion and the lamb. He is God and He is man. He is the seven way king. He is the King of the Jews. That's a racial king. He is the King of Israel. That's is a national king. He is the King of Righteousness. That's a moral king. He is the King of the ages. That's an eternal king. He is the King of heaven. That's a universal king. He is the King of Glory. That's a celestial king. He is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Please just give me Jesus! |
