Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires
(Psalm 37:4; NLT).
1. God’s love
Is within, for the taking,
His light
Is as free as the air.
2. His peace
Heals each heart that is aching,
His truth
Is both upright and fair.
3. God’s Son
Is his gift of salvation,
His Spirit
Is gracious and sweet.
4. His mercy
Is for all creation,
His joy
Makes our exile complete.
