Delight in Our Salvation and Grace

"For it is God's will
that we have true delight
with him in our salvation,
and therein he wills that we be
mightily comforted and strengthened,
and thus wills he joyfully
that our soul be occupied with his grace.
For we are his bliss,
for in us he delights without end;
and so shall we in him
with his grace."
