One Small Candle

One Small Candle

The darkness hung so thick and black, I scarcely could believe— My very hand before my face, my eyes could not perceive!   I groped and found a candle that was lying by the way. I struck a match and lit it, and the darkness fled away!   ‘Twas such a little candle to dispel such heavy gloom! And yet, its tiny flame sent forth its rays throughout the room!   And as I watched it burn, a simple prayer arose within: Lord, let me be a candle in a world that’s dark... Read more

Just a Crumb

Just a Crumb

Just a crumb from Jesus’ table—just a crumb’s enough for me. If a crumb makes such a sumptuous feast, what must the table be!   Just a glimpse of Jesus’ glory—just a glimpse is all I see. If a glimpse so overwhelms my soul, how great His majesty!   Just a drop of His compassion—just a drop I comprehend.

I have a lot of tiny parts, all meant to give you pleasure, Like shiny eyes and dimpled knees and sweetness without measure. The most important part by far is one you cannot see-- There is a small eternal soul that's deep inside of me. The devil has his traps all laid--he wants my soul to keep; His darts are sharp; his lures are bright; he will not rest or... Read more

I Count My Wealth

I Count My Wealth

It is a common thing for folks to calculate their wealth In fancy cars, in grown-up “toys,” in products for their health, In stocks and bonds, in bank accounts, in lands and property, In grand and spacious homes, expensive clothes, and jewelry.   I must confess that few of these fine things to me belong, And when I count my worldly goods, it doesn’t take me long! And yet I feel so wealthy—and I revel in it, too! So if you will allow me, I will count my wealth for... Read more
