DESIRES OF MY HEART

written by Donna (Ensign) Woods

 

Psalm 37:4

"Delight yourself in the Lord

and He shall give you the desires of your heart."

 

What are the desires of my heart ?

Where, Oh where do I start??

Blessings and joy and wealth,

Long life and good health......

But, as I peel off the Earthly layers,

What is at the heart of my prayers?

Ask and I shall receive....

With all faith to believe.

In my Lord, I delight.

But what desires are in my sight??

I desire faith for each step

That leads me to where joy is kept.

I hunger for wisdom, so I will know

What direction I am to go.

If I seek His perfect will....

My cup, He will overfill.....

I desire a song to sing

A joyful noise for my King.

I want to make a difference some how....

For eternity, not just here and now

I desire Heavenly mansions for those I love.

Eternal dwelling places above.

I want to leave a powerful legacy

So others will know and see....

And I desire to hear God say....

"Well done" on judgement day.
