Lord, how lovely and sweet to be in Your presence!

This is my true favorite song through which I met God twenty-two years ago.
Makati, Philippines
Lord Jesus, I and my family adore only You. Only You can manipulate our lives. For You are the living God. You work in a sevenfold intensified way. You came and died to bear our sins. Now, we are one with You. Sorry for the times we are doubtful. Sorry for the times we have a weak faith. Sorry for the times we hurt You. Cause us to be faithful and not live apart from You. Glory to You!
