Enthralled By Love Divine

Enthralled with heavenly love I’m nestling in the Almighty's divine amorousness Satiating my heart’s hunger for genuine peace From oppressive sin-inflicting guilt Quenching my soul’s thirst for freedom's contentment Against affliction-pangs of bitterness and greed While calming the vehemence of my mind attacked by doubts. Assured by God to delight in His perpetual love He vividly expressed in the Scriptures And unceasingly reverberated by Jeremiah 31:3 “The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee;” I seek Him worshipfully in His solace Midst disquietude of carnality, threatening my spirit So I can invite others to bask with no hesitation In the effervescence of His compassion. Thus, brewing in the fervidness of the Lord’s charity, I yield myself to His reviving grace Blessed to serve Him with reverence. As His faithful steward sealed with His loving kindness May I testify that I love God* with all my heart; And I’m striving to love others as myself… all by His gracious love.
