Near To The Heart Of God

 Psalm 73:26 My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.

The Lord is all we need in this life or in the life to come. 


A personal relationship with God will show us that our flesh is weak, but our Lord is strong.


A heart that desires nothing but the Lord is a heart that will never be disappointed. 


Near To The Heart Of God

_____________________________


There is a place of quiet rest, —  Near to the heart of God; —  A place where sin cannot molest,   —    Near to the heart of God.


CHORUS:

O Jesus, blest Redeemer, — Sent from the heart of God; —  Hold us, who wait before Thee,   —    Near to the heart of God.


There is a place of comfort sweet,— Near to the heart of God; —  A place where we our Savior meet, — Near to the heart of God.


There is a place of full release, — Near to the heart of God; — A place where all is joy and peace, — Near to the heart of God.


Cleland B. McAfee  1903
