The Greatest Thing That Can Be!

What could I ask for more

If this You Yourself assure

That You will always be

There and for with me?

Did I hear Your words echo,

Telling me that this is so?

Deep within, in my mind,

Did this assurance I truly find,

Silent, yet spoken, as it were,

Putting at rest all of my fear?

If this all is really true

And these words were from You,

And not just my fancy mere,

A promise I invented to hear,

Then what room can there be

For anguish, worry, anxiety?

I can then sail through life ahead

With not a trace of fear or dread,

Firmly sure that I can calmly face

Every challenge with Your grace.

If truly I heard this in Your voice,

It’s the biggest cause to rejoice,

For the greatest thing that can be

Is to get from You this guarantee.
