Rock Of Ages (Hymn)

  Rock Of Ages (Augustus Toplady) Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood, From Thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure; Save me from its guilt and power. Not the labor of my hands Can fulfill Thy law's demands; Could my zeal no respite know, Could my tears forever flow, All for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and Thou alone. Nothing in my hand I bring, Simply to the cross I cling; Naked, come to Thee for dress; Helpless, look to Thee for grace; Foul, I to the fountain fly, Wash me, Savior, or I die. While I draw this fleeting breath, When mine eyes shall close in death, When I soar to worlds unknown, See Thee on Thy judgment throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee. Exodus 33:17-22 And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found grace in my sight, and I know thee by name. And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory. And he said, I will ...

He Hideth My Soul (Hymn by Fanny Crosby)

  He Hideth My Soul (Fanny Crosby) A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord, A wonderful Savior to me; He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock, Where rivers of pleasure I see. Chorus: He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock That shadows a dry, thirsty land; He hideth my life with the depths of His love, And covers me there with His hand, And covers me there with His hand. A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord, He taketh my burden away; He holdeth me up, and I shall not be moved, He giveth me strength as my day. With numberless blessings each moment He crowns, And filled with His fullness divine, I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God For such a Redeemer as mine! When clothed in His brightness, transported I rise To meet Him in clouds of the sky, His perfect salvation, His wonderful love I'll shout with the millions on high.

Springs Of Living Water - by John W. Peterson (Hymn)

  Springs Of Living Water (John W. Peterson) I thirsted in the barren land of sin and shame, And nothing satisfying there I found; But to the blessed cross of Christ one day I came, Where springs of living water did abound. Chorus: Drinking at the springs of living water, Happy now am I, my soul they satisfy. Drinking at the springs of living water, O wonderful and bountiful supply. How sweet the living water from the hills of God! It makes me glad and happy all the way. Now glory, grace, and blessing mark the path I've trod I'm shouting "Hallelujah" every day. O sinner, won't you come today to Calvary? A fountain there is flowing deep and wide. The Saviour now invites you to the water free, Where thirsting spirits can be satisfied. John 4:13-14 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a ...

Love Lifted Me (Hymn)

Love Lifted Me (Lyrics: James Rowe) I was sinking deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore, Very deeply stained within, sinking to rise no more, But the Master of the sea, heard my despairing cry, From the waters lifted me, now safe am I. Chorus: Love lifted me! Love lifted me! When nothing else could help Love lifted me! Love lifted me! Love lifted me! When nothing else could help Love lifted me! All my heart to Him I give, ever to Him I'll cling In His blessed presence live, ever His praises sing. Love so mighty and so true merits my soul's best songs; Faithful, loving service, too, to Him belongs. Souls in danger look above, Jesus completely saves, He will lift you by His love, out of the angry waves. He’s the Master of the sea, billows His will obey, He your Savior wants to be, be saved today. For a devotional on this theme, see: Sinking In The Mire Matthew 14:22-33 And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side...

Learning To Trust (Poem)

Image
Learning To Trust I am learning, Lord; Growing stronger day by day. There’s a closeness, there’s an intimacy With You, when I kneel and pray. I am leaning, Lord; Depending so much more upon You. When the world crowds in around me, You are the only one I long to view. I am loving, Lord; I’m no longer the person I used to be. Through Your Word, I am transformed, I see Your Holy Spirit working through me. I am listening, Lord; Whether these raging storms come or stay; Trusting in every trial, in every situation, I know in my heart, You will make a way. Making molehills out of mountains, With hind’s feet, I now have the victory. Growing in my faith, by leaps and bounds - I pray others can see Jesus Christ in me. I am learning, Lord. May 13th, 2026 Jerry Bouey (Dedicated to my Sister in life and Sister in Christ, Lori Tremblay. Happy Birthday, Sis!) He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places. Psalm 18:33 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the wor...

His Name Is Jesus (Song)

His Name Is Jesus In the shadows of our world, God sent forth a shining light; There’s a hope stirring within that breaks through the darkest night. He’s the Desire of the Nations - He’s the God who can see us. The prophets have proclaimed, thou shalt call His name Jesus. He is Jesus! Chorus: His name is Jesus - He came to seek and to save; He is Jesus - He will rescue from the power of the grave; When He knocks at your heart’s door, won’t you let Him come in? If you heed His Gospel call, He will save you from sin. He is Jesus. He came unto His own, but Him they would not receive. Jesus Christ is the Messiah - but they would not believe. He is the one we’ve been waiting for all of our days; He’s the only true Redeemer - He is worthy of our praise; His name is Jesus! Chorus. From the cross of Calvary to the silent, empty grave, He’s the only Saviour who has risen - the only one who can save. Won’t you trust in the Good Shepherd; can’t you hear Him calling you? From the realm of eternity...
