I have a playlist of songs I listen to most nights and this was one that spoke to me. Jesus is our refuge, our rock and the place we can hide. We can fly to Him when the storms are raging, the trials are difficult, and the way seems so long.<\/p>\n<p>Lord, help me to want only you. You are the source of all righteousness. The fountain of love, joy and peace. And Your grace is sufficient to cover my sins, and keeping me pure within. Spring up as a fountain in my heart. Thank you that you are Just and Holy. May Your name be glorified!<\/p>\n<p>I know I need to continue learning these lessons of trust and letting God take control of the discouraging times. So I hope by reading this hymn you all are encouraged to keep on. Keep Jesus in the forefront of your minds and hearts.<\/p>\n<p>Jesus Lover of My Soul, let me to Thy bosom fly!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jesus Lover Of My Soul || The Living Stones Quartet\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/H2yotTKAUpQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jesus, lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high.
