The Tassle of Your Cloak:
If I could but touch the tassle of Your cloak …
Speak only one word, Lord and …
Just Your glance toward me, O Jesus, and I am rescued and restored …
You said you would not lose what the Father has placed in Your hands
Let all my confidence rest in Your willingness to save me!Joneen Flemings
