Loved with everlasting love

NT284
1
Loved with everlasting love,
Led by grace that love to know;
Spirit, breathing from above,
Thou hast taught me it is so.
Oh, this full and perfect peace!
Oh, this transport all divine!
In a love which cannot cease,
I am His, and He is mine.
2
Heaven above is softer blue,
Earth around is sweeter green;
Something lives in every hue
Christless eyes have never seen:
Birds with gladder songs o'erflow,
Flow'rs with deeper beauties shine,
Since I know, as now I know,
I am His, and He is mine.
3
Things that once were wild alarms
Cannot now disturb my rest;
Closed in everlasting arms,
Pillowed on the loving breast.
Oh, to lie forever here,
Doubt and care and self resign,
While He whispers in my ear,
I am His, and He is mine.
4
His forever, only His:
Who the Lord and me shall part?
Ah, with what a rest of bliss
Christ can fill the loving heart.
Heaven and earth may fade and flee,
Firstborn light in gloom decline;
But, while God and I shall be,
I am His, and He is mine.

Cannot now disturb my rest.."

"I have loved thee with an everlasting love." What a beautiful promise that transcends all human definitions of affection.

Our Savior LOVED us enough to die and He LOVES us enough to give us strength for today and hope for tomorrow!

Lord, You know that I love You. But You also know that my heart is prone to wander, to leave You and drift away every so often.

So draw me back to You! Thank You for loving me with Your ceaseless and unconditional love! I want to love You like You loved me. Lord, I choose to love You. Save me from loving You only in my feelings, because my feelings fluctuates by the hour. Keep me choosing You, to make the conscious decision to love You, on good days and bad days.

Lord I do love You! Make my consecration not just words, but a living!
