Minimizing the Multitude

"In the multitude of my thoughts within me Thy comforts delight my soul" (Psalm 94:19). "This is My beloved Son: hear Him" (Luke 9:35).

The multitude of thoughts replete
That vie for my attention,
Can never with my Lord compete;
Nor are they worth the mention.

The comforts that delight my soul
Are found in Jesus Christ.
I know He paid my debt in full
When He was sacrificed.

"This is My beloved Son;
Hear Him," God will say.
Thus distractions turn and run,
And comforts come to stay.

So this is how I minimize
And filter every thought:
I fix my heart, my ears, and eyes
On Jesus as I ought.
