Thine I am, O spotless Lamb; I will suffer naught to hide Thee,  Ask for naught beside Thee. In Thine arm I rest me; foes who would molest me  Cannot reach me here. Though the earth be shaking, every heart be quaking,  God dispels our fear. Sin and hell in conflict fell With their heaviest storms assail us:  Jesus will not fail us. Hence, all thoughts of sadness! For the Lord of gladness,  Jesus, enters in: Those who love the Father, though the storms may gather,  Still have peace within; Yes, whate'er we here must bear, Still in Thee lies purest pleasure,  Jesus, priceless treasure!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6488</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A bad cause will never be supported by bad means and bad men. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5368]]></link><description><![CDATA[A bad cause will never be supported by bad means and bad men.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One with the law is a majority. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26211]]></link><description><![CDATA[One with the law is a majority.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The people who are under the illusion that they're going to take all the best from both programs are living ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28695]]></link><description><![CDATA[The people who are under the illusion that they're going to take all the best from both programs are living a fantasy.
