Nothing Compares To You


I'm sitting here filled with wonder
At the amazing things you do
How the waters stay in the oceans
And the vast beauty of the view

How the stars are hung in the sky
Within them is written your word
How we are the following sheep
And you are the only Shepherd

How the sky is painted with color
Bursts of orange in the sunset glow
How much knowledge it took to make
And how little us humans know

How intricately you planned it
There was nothing you left unthought
From the delicacy of a baby
To all the sins of ours you bought

There's no other love that's out there
As deep and as faithful and true
No other comfort to be found
Because nothing compares to you

Nothing compares to your miracles
Or the listening time you spend
How you always take good care of us
And our broken hearts that you mend

To us, our problems like mountains
To you, they're no problem at all
You're ever so watchful and there
To help catch us, when we do fall

I'm just sitting here filled with wonder
At the awesome things that you do
At being our Lord and Savior
Because nothing compares to You!


 <*\\\><

When you can't make up your mind,
Which way is right for you,
Stop and softly ask yourself,
"What Would Jesus Do?"

Very lovely...he has risen here today...
he's no longer where he lay...
he has risen for I feel him in my soul...
and when his work on earth was ended..
back to glory he ascended..
he has risen for I feel him in my soul..

This is a song..not my writing.  Hope you and everyone have a lovely Easter.  James

Here I am again to see if my post
will 'take'.
This is simply a beautiful render
testifying to the love that He shares
with us all.
There is NOTHING to compare to His love.
