REMEMBERING HIM
TUNE: SOUTHGATE ("Peace Peace is mine;)
We approach Thy throne with singing,
Rememb'ring Him.
Our thanksgivings to Thee bringing,
Rememb'ring Him.
He in whom Thy heart found pleasure,
Every day increasing measure.
We these precious mem'ries treasure,
Rememb'ring Him.
His was total dedication,
To Thee His God.
All He gave in consecration,
To Thee His God.
He all worship is deserving,
Yet as man found daily serving,
Faithfully and never swerving,
To Thee His God.
By the Jordan see Him walking.
Behold the Lamb!
View His working, hear His talking.
Behold the Lamb!
Spotless Lamb of Thy providing,
Ever with Thyself abiding.
Always in Thyself confiding,
Behold the Lamb!
Matthew J. Cordner
The trains of religion are scheduled for derailment; There is not enough
power to reach their destination.
We are holding lightly and selling cheaply the inheritance that cost
our fathers
everything.
J. Douglas
God is a shade from the sun of prosperity, and a harbour from the storm
of adversity.
J. Douglas
CREATION AND REDEMPTION
Creation's work doth unto man display
God's Power Eternal and Divinity,
But yet a greater work by faith we see
Accomplished once upon Golgotha's tree.
There Christ Himself, God's well-beloved Son
Redemption's work so gloriously hath done,
That by His Blood to God are we brought nigh
Sweet fellowship forever to enjoy.
Our Lord Himself, the Firstborn from the dead
Now liveth ever as the Church's Head,
In Him complete are we by Grace divine
So truly one as branches in the vine.
When glorified our Lord the Spirit sent
To comfort us here in our mortal tent,
The things of Christ He to the saints doth show
While passing through the wilderness below.
But soon shall come our absent Lord again
And change us to His glorious image then,
Our ransomed tongues shall sing around the Throne
Forever worthy is the Lamb alone.
The late James H. Wilkinson (Co. Tyrone)
God is my strength and power; and He maketh my way perfect.
2 Sam. 22.33
As thy days, so shall thy strength be.
Deut.33.25
"As thy days" — oh, blessed promise!
Day by day His strength is mine;
Balm for evey bitter sorrow,
Grace to wait and not repine;
Strength to cast my care upon Him,
Faith to trust His power divine.
