Nothing’s quite so precious

1
Nothing’s quite so precious
As Jesus in my spirit.
He takes away the care
And fills me with His peace.
He never leaves me,
E’en as the days grow weary.
His presence goes with me.
My soul delights to hide in His arms.
  I call His name, “Lord Jesus,
Help me in my weakness.”
So faithfully each day in me
He proves His life is so sufficient.
2
Nothing’s quite so precious
As Jesus in my spirit.
He turns my heart to Him,
To feast upon His life.
It’s nothing I do—
His mercy’s just upon me.
And God’s free gift of grace
Becomes an endless joy to me.

The Lord is so faithful in many ways. He sufficiently supply us with His life. Nothing's quite so precious as the Lord is in our life. Praise the Lord!

It's so good to call LORD JESUS. HELP ME IN MY WEAKNESS.

I call His name, "Lord Jesus,

Help me in my weakness."

So faithfully each day in me

He proves His life is so sufficient.

He never leaves me,

E'en as the days grow weary.

His presence goes with me.

My soul delights to hide in his arms.

I just enjoy that God is always with us. He's always there to just comfort us. We just have to make a little turn, and then He's already there.

This song reminds me of the preciousness of the Lord Jesus in my spirit, and I was reminded again that nothing in this world can satisfy me and meet my need but Him in my spirit. He as the Spirit in my spirit is so sufficient. Now, I am encourage to always turn to my mingled spirit by calling on Him.

I learned this hymn many years ago, but it's not until now that I feel I have entered into the spirit of the hymn to really ponder and inhale each word and make it my own prayer. Oh Lord! Nothing is quite so precious!!!! How my soul delights to hide in Your arms....Lord Jesus!!! Help me in my weakness....so faithfully each day in me You prove Your life is so sufficient..Lord...bring this "endless joy" to me...

As I considered this thought - the value of something is usually what it is worth....I had to reconsider the things I treasure, what I spend my time on...The things that I consider to be so precious, if not on the Lord, it really becomes vanity. I just considered when you know the value of something precious you will not hesitate to pay whatever the price is to obtain it. Okay, what I'm trying to say is that I, just for a moment, had to re-evaluate our dear and precious Lord Jesus. This hymn helped me to truly turn my heart to Lord and say....

Lord grant to me/us a fresh revelation of Yourself so that we would be willing to pay the price, whatever it may be, to experience and gain You. We want to really appreciate You and the process You went through in order to enter into our spirit. But- O Lord, don't stop there, do spread and make Yourself at home in ALL our heart. Build us up together Lord.

Upon this rock (not only the revelation of the church but also the revelation of Christ) He promised to build His church!!!

This hymn is a classic because the reality is that there is absolutely nothing quite so precious as this Man-Savior Jesus in our spirit! If you check your experience you will see that no one or nothing can compare to this precious Person living and dwelling within you.
