Showing posts with the label Give Me Jesus

Worship

I'm going to have my Wednesday posts be those that bring worship. They will consist of a verse from the Bible, or a song, something I saw, or a thought I had, etc. Anything that has caused me to pause and worship the Lord. In the hustle and bustle of our days I think we forget that God created us to worship him. And, he has given countless things to worship him. I don't want to forget his goodness to me. I don't want to forget that if something isn't going well there is still reason and cause to worship the Lord. Today I want to share with you a song that I love.  Give Me Jesus  is a fairly old hymn. It originated as an African-American spiritual written during the time of slavery in the Untied States. It's been made popular by  Fernando Ortega, as well as others. This song has done a lot to show me that no matter what, I need Jesus. I've posted a video of the song below the lyrics so you can hear it. The words are simple and yet so powerful.  GIVE ME JESUS...
