This is a hymn that has been on my mind. Consider it a post scriptum to the "Gift of Pain"
Oh that I might live this to the fullness for Christ!
"Jesus Is All I Wish or Want
For Him I pray, for Him I pant; Let others after earth aspire, Christ is the treasure I desire. 2. Possessed of Him, I ask no more; He is an all-sufficient store; To praise Him all my powers conspire Christ is the treasure I desire. 3. If He His smiling face but hide, My soul no comfort has beside; Distressed I after Him inquire Christ is the treasure I desire. 4. And while my heart is racked with pain, Jesus appears and smiles again. Why should my Savior thus retire? Christ is the treasure I desire. 5. Come, humble souls, and view His charms, Take refuge in His saving arms, And sing, while you his worth admire, Christ is the Savior I desire." |

About Me
- Anne of the grey submarine
- I started "Annalogies" as an outlet of creativity for an overly scientific, logically minded life. I love people. I enjoy the simple things in life. My aspiration is that this outlet can allow me to grow in expression. So go with me and grow with me, if you like. I am just a sculpture still in the making. annegirl46@gmail.com
