Song of Songs 2:1 I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.
1 Corinthians 1:30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
Whatever it is that you need today, you will find it in Jesus.
He is all we need..
The Lily of the Valley
________________________
I’ve found a friend in Jesus, He’s everything to me, — He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul; — The Lily of the Valley, in Him alone I see — All I need to cleanse and make me fully whole. — In sorrow He’s my comfort, in trouble He’s my stay; — He tells me every care on Him to roll.
CHORUS:
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star, — He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
He all my grief has taken, and all my sorrows borne; — In temptation He’s my strong and mighty tow’r; — I’ve all for Him forsaken, and all my idols torn — From my heart and now He keeps me by His pow’r. — Though all the world forsake me, and Satan tempt me sore, — Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal. - - -
He’ll never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here, — While I live by faith and do His blessed will; — A wall of fire about me, I’ve nothing now to fear, — From His manna He my hungry soul shall fill. — Then sweeping up to glory to see His blessed face, — Where rivers of delight shall ever roll. - - -
Charles W. Fry, 1881
