Jesus Is All The World To Me

Philippians 1:21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

I came to this decision twenty-three years ago when I received a stage four breast cancer diagnosis. 


Either enjoy close fellowship with the Lord here or rejoice in Heaven. 


Other than peace through the treatment, I also had no nausea; an answer to prayer. 


Jesus Is All The World To Me

_________________________


Jesus is all the world to me, — My life, my joy, my all; — He is my strength from day to day,   —   Without Him I would fall.   —   When I am sad, to Him I go,   —   No other one can cheer me so;   —   When I am sad, He makes me glad,   —   He’s my Friend.


Jesus is all the world to me, — My Friend in trials sore; — I go to Him for blessings, and   —  He gives them o’er and o’er.  —   He sends the sunshine and the rain,   —   He sends the harvest’s golden grain; — Sunshine and rain, harvest of grain, — He’s my Friend.


Jesus is all the world to me, — And true to Him I’ll be; — Oh, how could I this Friend deny, — When He’s so true to me? — Following Him I know I’m right,   —   He watches o’er me day and night;   —   Following Him by day and night,   —   He’s my Friend.


Jesus is all the world to me, — I want no better Friend; — I trust Him now, I’ll trust Him when   —   Life’s fleeting days shall end.   —   Beautiful life with such a Friend,   —   Beautiful life that has no end; — Eternal life, eternal joy, — He’s my Friend.
