that pleasant feeling

It's hard to put your finger on.  But it's a good feeling.  And it comes after you have turned your eyes upon Jesus, having stopped your mind from thinking about all the doubts and fears which come when your attention settles upon yourself.  In Christ, all fears are truly relieved.  When the mind is fastened with faith upon the Sovereign, the heart must inevitably swell with trust, and immediately all the craziness of the day turns to powder and blows away.  I know it's always semi-cheesy to quote lyrics, but I must admit I am very partial to cheesines in this moment.

In you I have found the wealth of my life
Supreme in your beauty and grace
To my soul, you alone, are my portion and cup
my King and my Redeemer

In you, every hour, I shall strengthen my heart
You’re my rock, in the heart of the storm
Let the wind and the rain turn my fears into faith
My help and my deliverer

In you, there is peace for the darkest of days
There is rest, in the knowledge of God
Every fear, every doubt I surrender to You
To my Shepherd and my Sovereign

In you, is my crown, and my glory and name
I shall seek, what cannot fade away
Make me deep in my trust that your Chosen shall come
the Messiah and my Savior

In you, I shall find the release of my soul
When I sing with a body renewed
Every knee touch the ground, the whole earth shall resound
With the voices of all the redeemed
 
O In You, there is grace for the weakest of saints
For the downcast a joy that remains
There is rest for the broken and a hope for the faint
Our God and Our Salvation
