Pleasures Forevermore

“In His presence is fullness of joy and at His right hand are pleasures forevermore” (Psalms 16:11).

God you are my center. You are the place that I can go.

Make my day overflow because you alone know.

I have travelled and I have sought. And finally I have been caught.

I had tried to buy, but now I have been bought.

You are the One and Place I have sought.

May you continue to make me wrought.

There is no certainty in life, but suffering and trials are sure.

You are the only One in all the way and you alone are the cure.

I have run and I have hid from all the troubles that have flowed.

But you have made me see the truth, if only I had bowed.

But now I know the Way, the Life, and now I know the Truth.

You are those things and much, much more, you are the center of my life.

I have confessed and do repent of all my sins and grief.

And now I live in your presence where the joys all overflow, forevermore.
Oh, what wonders you have in store!
