For once my heart was poor,
And I have found a treasury
Of love, a boundless store.

I knew not of His love;
And He had loved so long,
With love so faithful and so deep,
So tender and so strong.

And now I know it all,
Have heard and known His voice,
And hear it still from day to day.
Can I enough rejoice?

Melodee and I chose this as one of our wedding hymns in 1982. Can I enough rejoice that from a boundless store of love, our Lord invited me this morning to come and rejoice with Him?

Singing this hymn this morning, So deeply touching! Seeing saints I recognize in the comments (from Nashville)... What a rich prevailing flow of unstoppable Life we've all been baptized into together... Oh Lord. You Are indeed completing the good work in us You've begun! One might flow of God, from the Throne to the City! We love You Lord and worship You with One Voice!

I learned this hymn over 40 years ago and tonight will share it with our neighborhood group and we will all learn it and sing together. A rich tribute to our Lord.

Let us pray and sing to Jehovah—the El Elyon, Jehovah Shalom, Jehovah Nisi, Jehovah Jireh. Let us glorify Jesus with songs like this everyday.
Let us rejoice, for Christ has freed us from bondage.
