How Delightful

How Delightful, Oh Lord! As I wake from my slumber
Without opening my eyes to know,
Beneath Thy Cross I dwell under!

No matter the time, no matter the occasion,
During the midnight, or with the sun’s rise,
No matter what the situation, no need for my eyelids to flutter,
Even when my spirit knows not what to mutter.

To know You are with me, Your Love and Your Care…
All authorities know and the powers of the air
That I am Yours, yes, one of Your Sheep.
Whether I’m awake, or deep in sleep;
That no matter what my soul, You will keep.

Thank You, Jesus for being who You are
Always, through the day; each night, with the stars.
Whether I’m wearing a smile or shedding a tear,
Thank You, for not ever being far, but always near.
Thank You, for to kneel and pray anytime, and
Tell You all, my heart must say.

And though You already know,
You are glorified as I pray.
To You, I can always go
Knowing no fear, only Your Love.
Thank You, Jesus, for ever coming from above.
How Delightful, Oh Lord! Amen.
