Give Me Jesus

This morning Jas Ingram led our worship team since Jacque Lederman was out of town. The worship team he put together did a good job leading us in our worship of the Lord Jesus. However, I was particularly blessed as I was leaving the worship center. I spoke to three ladies who were overcome by emotion when we sang the closing commitment song. They were not familiar with the song, but the simple message touched the chords of their hearts. I want to share the lyrics to this song, so we can all meditate on them. It is a Jeremy Camp song, Give Me Jesus.

In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise, give me Jesus

Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
You can have all this world,
But give me Jesus

When I am alone
When I am alone
When I am alone, give me Jesus

Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
You can have all this world,
But give me Jesus

When I come to die
When I come to die
When I come to die, give me Jesus

Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
You can have all this world,
You can have all this world,
You can have all this world,
But give me Jesus

It says it all, doesn't it?

Tomorrow, I intend to read Proverbs 19-21 and II Corinthians 7.
