THE LOVE OF JESUS

I may not have everything
That money can buy
Like mansions and yaughts
And Lamborghinis that fly.

But I have had real love
And I know this is true.
The One Who still loves me?
Yes Jesus … it’s You.

You never let me forget
What’s important to me.
It’s not kept in a bank
Or floating on the high sea.

It’s nothing material
You can touch, see or smell.
It’s the Love of my Saviour
I now know so well.

You’ll never leave or forsake me
You promised You’d stay.
I know You live here inside me
I feel Your Presence each day.

Lord, please make me worthy
Of love You freely give.
A love like no other
My God, You died .. so I’d live.

Now You’re the One that I count on
To always be there.
Through the good times and bad times
You make me aware,

That no matter how much
Or how little I own.
My true treasure lies
At the foot of Your Throne.

Sounds like you know what it means when we pray "thy kingdom come", too many people think that means something altogether different. Thanks for this one.

I believe it is at the foot of His throne we must stay. Very good thoughts and very well said!
