I Want To Breathe In You
LORD, You are the joy that is set before me.
You hem me in, guard me from all sides, all my
Enemies are destroyed by Your breath.
Every moment of every day, I want to breathe in You…
You catch all my tears in Your bottle;
you write each one on Your scroll.
When my couch is drenched wet with my tears,
You wipe them away completely and comfort me.
Even though I am completely spent and weak from
Fear and pain,
You take away the fear with Your perfect love for me.
You cast my sins away from me;
As far as the East is from the West.
You are my Redeemer and the One
Who sanctifies me fully.
You alone are the balm for the pain I endure,
I have hopes of healing from You.
You make all my ways pleasant,
And send peace before me on my path.
Every moment of every day, I want to breathe in You…
You are the joy that is set before me.
