“Jesus Lover of My Soul” by Charles Wesley
Jesus, lover of my soul, let me to Thy bosom fly.
While the nearer waters roll, while the tempest still is high.
Hide me O my Savior; hide, till the storm of life is past;
Safe into Thy harbor guide, O receive my soul at last.
Jesus said, “If I go and prepare a place for you. I will come again receive you to myself, and where I am you will be also.” (John 14:3)
What a blessing we have, knowing that no matter what life brings us, Jesus is with us and ultimately we will be with Him. Note the word, If.
Yours in Christ,
Carl
