In Sweet Communion

[116 words] In sweet communion, Lord, with TheeI constantly abide;My hand Thou holdest in Thine ownTo keep me near Thy side. Thy counsel through my earthly wayShall guide me and control,And then to glory afterwardThou wilt receive my soul. Whom have I, Lord, in heaven but Thee,To whom my thoughts aspire?And having Thee, on earth is naughtThat I can yet endure. Though flesh and heart should faint and fail,The Lord will ever beThe strength and portion of my heart,My God eternally. To live apart from God is death,’Tis good His face to seek;My refuge is the living God,His praise I long to speak. Author Unknown…
