Give Me Jesus


     On my morning walk, I thought about Jesus and what He has done for me.  I couldn't help but sing to myself.  Trust me.  That is the only way anyone would ever want me to sing, except to myself.  But, no matter how badly my singing is, Jesus can change it to an instrumental note to His ears.  At least, I hope He does!  
     I started off with "Give me Jesus" and added to it during the day; as follows: 

                     Give Me Jesus 

Give me Jesus in the morning through the bright and sunny day.
Give me Jesus through the damp and misty dew.
Let me place my hand in His;
Let my troubles pass on through.
  Ohhh-- yes! Give me Jesus every hour of every day.
  May He open up the doors;
  Giving blessings by the scores.
  Ohhh--yes!  Give me Jesus every hour of every day.
Give me Jesus in the noontime through the rain or troubling storm.
Give me Jesus through the warmth or cold of life. 
Let me follow in His footsteps;
Let our time not slip away.
  Ohhh-- yes!  Give me Jesus every hour of every day.
  May He direct my path;
  A refuge from His wrath.
  Ohhh--yes!  Give me Jesus every hour of every day. 
Give me Jesus in the dusty dark of night.
Give me Jesus through the calm of evening shade.
Let me listen for His voice;
Let my soul be not dismayed.
  Ohhh-- yes!  Give me Jesus every hour of every day.
  May my life not be in vain;
  Causing others undue pain.
  Ohhh--yes!  Give me Jesus every hour of every  day. 
Ohhh-yes!  Give me Jesus every hour.
