The One Who Loves Me Best
When my heart is overwhelmed
And my soul can find no rest,
When life is full of trials
And just living seems a test,
When hope is far from view
And I walk in weariness,
’Tis then that I go running
To the One who loves me best.
When joy renews my heart
And whene’er my life is blest,
When love seems all around
And my soul returns to rest,
And I walk in sweet communion
With the Lord of Life and Breath,
’Tis because I’m running
To the One who loves me best.
Day by day I’m finding
In Him is peace and rest.
For He is joy and grace untold,
And life in all its zest.
So it matters not the reason,
From joy to weariness,
Ever I’ll be running
To the One who loves me best.
Who is this One who loves me?
He who, for me and all the rest,
Shed His blood that we might live,
And loved us at our worst.
Unto us He’s calling, “Come,
I’ll give you rest,”
To anyone who’ll run to
The One who loves us best.
