Sitting at the Feet of Jesus

Sitting At The Feet Of Jesus
Words: J. H. (or J. H. T.), 19th Century.

Sitting at the feet of Jesus,
Oh, what words I hear Him say!
Happy place! so near, so precious!
May it find me there each day.
Sitting at the feet of Jesus,
I would look upon the past;
For His love has been so gracious,
It has won my heart at last.

Sitting at the feet of Jesus,
Where can mortal be more blest?
There I lay my sins and sorrows
And, when weary, find sweet rest.
Sitting at the feet of Jesus,
There I love to weep and pray,
While I from His fullness gather
Grace and comfort every day.

Bless me, O my Savior, bless me,
As I sit low at Thy feet.
Oh, look down in love upon me;
Let me see Thy face so sweet.
Give me, Lord, the mind of Jesus;
Make me holy as He is.
May I prove I've been with Jesus,
Who is all my righteousness.

Just wanted to let you all know that I will be taking a break for awhile. I will be doing what the words of this song so beautifully states -- sitting at the feet of Jesus. It is where my focus needs to be as much as possible right now. I encourage you to find some time in your day to do the same...

In His Peace...Chris
