Jesus is my foundation (Yesu ennadisthaanam, aasha avanilatre )

English Christian song translated from Malayalam.
Translated Punnoose John Malayattu.

Lyrics:

Jesus is my foundation, my hope is in Him only;
Fullness of peace and joy, I found in Jesus only.

How sweet's the name of Jesus, when I meditate upon
His name is sweeter to me; Taste and see the Lord is good.

Can poverty or sorrow have influence upon me?
No, He is holding my hand, He is guiding my footsteps.

Sickness or weakness of my body can't weaken my faith
Jesus is coming back soon, He will renew my body.

Jesus took away all my filthy garments stained by sin;
He has covered me with the robe of righteousness instead.

The world is my enemy, it may reject and hate me;
Why should I worry at all? He will lead me by His grace.

He will make me His bride soon, that is His promise I have;
Thank you Lord for the promise which shall never pass away.




Let me say a of a testimony, these songs I got as an answer to a longtime prayer, even when years before I got when we was passing through fire which didn't quench us, it was a time when Elijah's God became true in our life, when ever I used to hear and singalong the song, the line

Can poverty or sorrow have influence upon me?
No, He is holding my hand, He is guiding my footsteps."

How true that time the lines were in our life... "Can poverty or sorrow have infuence upon me?" What a true question.
"His name is sweeter to me; Taste and see the Lord is good."

That is what I and my parents had to say to ourselves and to others.

Just some days before I was so very happy in the Lord Jesus,ever since he gave me the answer to my 12years of prayer and search.

3days before, I had a desire, around us everyone was buying for their children Mango, since, now in India its Mango season, I just saw those ...but when I was praying in the night I prayed to Lord Jesus, actually more than a prayer it is a talk, I said, if I had my mother with me, she would have known my heart, she knows how much I wants mango, I never need to say to her, but Lord Jesus, you are my mother and anyway you know my desires."

Earlymorning, at four again I just remembered that everyone who has parents are buying for their children but me?

at seven again I remembered... then thought may be I must go through like this anyway may His will be done.

At nine To my surprise!! to my surprise! I couldn't believe myself.. Mango not one.. (I desired for one.. )but 10mango's our neighbour, brought and gave in my hand.. I am so thankful to my Lord Jesus, I have no words.. Lord Jesus who is more than my mother gave me the Mango, that I desired in my hands. ..I had read in the biography of Corrie Ten Boom, though it was long time before and now I had forgotten.. I think she prayed and desired for a Handkerchief..

Once I had my parents with me to taste the Love of God together, but now I am alone, and my Lord Jesus is more nearer than ever before, and I sing along with this song,

((How sweets the name of Jesus, when I meditate upon
His name is sweeter to me; Taste and see the Lord is good.

Can poverty or sorrow have influence upon me?
No, He is holding my hand, He is guiding my footsteps.))
