All That Thrills My Soul

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!

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 heaven,
Deeper than the deepest sea!

What a wonderful redemption!
Never can a mortal know
How my sin, tho 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


Lyrics and Composer: Thoro Harris, 1931

-This hymn was in my head as I was cycling home at 9.30pm having spent about three hours with a friend and sharing the gospel with him. 'All that thrills my soul is Jesus'! He is the only One that can thrill my soul because He is truly more than life and more beautiful than all the world could offer. Proclaiming the gospel is thrilling and heals up more hurts, dispells more doubts, and feeds our souls more than we dare realise.
Having doubts? Share the gospel.

O how blessed to call Him mine!
