Mrs. Chas. Cowman suggests this translation of 1 Samuel 2:1:
My heart thrills over the Eternal:
My powers are heightened by my God.
Thoro Harris penned this hymn in 1931:
Who can cheer the heart like Jesus
By His presence all divine
True and tender, pure and precious
O, how blest to call Him mine
Chorus
All that thrills my soul is Jesus
He is more than life to me
And the fairest of ten thousand
In my blessed Lord I see
Love of Christ so freely given
Grace of God beyond degree
Mercy higher than the heavens
Deeper than the deepest sea
What a wonderful redemption
Never can a mortal know
How my sin, though red like crimson
Can be whiter than the snow
Every need His hand supplying
Every good in Him I see
On His strength divine relying
He is all in all to me
By the crystal flowing river
With the ransomed I will sing
And forever and forever
Praise and glorify the King
IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.
Grateful

This hymn by Thoro Harris should remind all of us that nothing should cheer, bless, and "thrill" us like Jesus Christ. He is indeed "more than life" to all of us who have accepted His offer of salvation.
The verses remind us of several aspects of our relationship with Christ: He loves us; He redeemed us; He supplies our needs
What wonderful comments. Many thanks. I say "YES".
Thanks. I haven't heard that song for a long time.
It's a golden goodie.
