Alone?

Without this Book, would I still be fine? 

Without it how desperate would I be

How confused, lost and hopeless?

Yes this is the thing I choose,

The one thing that will bring me close to You. 

If I were alone on that isle I could be

It is not the one thing I need, but the one I want

Drawing me closer, I am not my own.

In this Book, of my Savior, I read

Lifted by the words, encouraged by his suffering

Feeling my troubles fall into his hands

I pray to let it guide me

Let it remind me of hope and center me to Him

In my suffering I find you steady

Love, Love this Book reveals, here with me

How could I be without this treasure?
