Jesus lowers Himself in His entirety to come into my heart as food for my soul so my love for Him is not exaggerated in the light of His love for me. - Myra |
I want nothing
more than Jesus,
Give me nothing
less than Him,
All I ask is all
of Jesus,
Other pleasures
now grow dim.
Having tasted of
His goodness,
Nothing
satisfies my soul,
I implore You
give me Jesus,
He alone can
make me whole.
Grant me naught
but all of Jesus,
Is the only
prayer I pray,
“Ask,” You said,
“It shall be given,”
All I ask is
Christ today.
Satisfy the zeal
of longing,
At the Fount of
Love whose Name,
Can enkindle
holy fire,
Ardor burns to
living flame.
Yes I know that
I am nothing,
And audacious I
may seem,
Some may call my
fervor foolish,
Deeming me much
too extreme.
Yet it’s God who
loves me madly,
Stooping in
humility,
As mere Bread descending in me,
Body, Soul,
Divinity.
