Jesus is My Comforter

[MIRIAM JACOB]

" Jesus is My Comforter "


When the load grows too heavy,
and my way in life seems so unclear;
my Heart is overburdened with
much uncertainty and fear.

When I feel so all alone,
and the night is closing in;
I'm yearning for the comfort
of a kind and loving friend.

"For This I Have Jesus"
who has promised to be;
A present help in trouble,
The "Way~Maker" ~ for me.

Who will carry each burden,
pressing me oh so low;
Be my mighty, strong Tower,
that security I may know.

Who never berates me nor
weaknesses condemns;
BUT enfolds me in Compassion,
draws me closer to Him.

Dries the tears of self ~ reproach,
that my eyes may clearer see;
As I hear Him gently whisper,
"My, child, for this you have Me".

Then doubts are displaced by
His reassuring touch;
And, such warmth floods my Heart,
to know He Loves me so much.

Mercy floats from His sweet Voice,
breathing Peace to this troubled mind:
" For This I Have Jesus"
and, for cares of any kind !
