Oh! Sweet Jesus Carry Me

Oh! My sweet Jesus do carry Me
To a place under a shady tree
Near a pond of cool tranquil waters
Oh! My spirit just never falters

As you touch my heart's last deep desire
You are my savior and my Sire
Carry me under a shady tree
So my sweet spirit can fly so free

Heal my yearning soul with your great gift
As you take my soul yonder and lift
Waiting with me as my mourners leave
To a place afar where love does achieve

The glory of God that comforts me
My flesh lays under a shady tree
Oh! My sweet Jesus do carry me
To that place of peace where all are free

A Yearning.

I sensed a longing in this piece, 'carry me' is what I picked up on the most. A certain desire for peace. A piece of mind that can be found somewhere away, from here.
Also a firm belief in the 'saviour' that he will come through for you.

I don't go to church like I used to, but my strong religious beliefs and needs
are just part of my bones, somewhere from another life....Jesus is my
friend, hope and guide... Thank you for reading and giving this
writer a review!

Your Welcome!

Any time. If Im free I will try to catch up on some of your work. If I forget, please remind me.

Deborah
