  • Morning & Evening

    What enemies are abroad? Errors are a numerous horde, and new ones appear every hour: against what heresy am I to be on my guard? Sins creep from their lurking places when the darkness reigns; I must myself mount the watch-tower, and watch unto prayer. Our heavenly Protector foresees all the attacks which are about…

  • OPEN MY EYES, THAT I MAY SEE

    Amazing Grace Words and Music by Clara H. Scott, 1841–1897 Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in Your law.

  • Morning & Evening

    Upon some points a believer is absolutely sure. He knows, for instance, that God sits in the stern-sheets of the vessel when it rocks most.

  • BREAK THOU THE BREAD OF LIFE

    Amazing Grace Benjamin Schmolck, 1672–1737Translated by Jane L. Borthwick, 1813–1897 I desire to do Your will, O my God; Your law is within my heart.

  • Morning & Evening

    Quietly contemplate the Lamb as the light of heaven. Light in Scripture is the emblem of joy. The joy of the saints in heaven is comprised in this: Jesus chose us, loved us, bought us, cleansed us, robed us, kept us, glorified us: we are here entirely through the Lord Jesus. Each one of these…

  • NOTHING BETWEEN

    Amazing Grace Words and music by Charles A. Tindley, 1851–1933 If our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from Him anything we ask, because we obey His commands and do what pleases Him. (1 John 3:21, 22) Born to slave parents and separated from them when only five years…

  • Morning & Evening

    Our belief in God’s wisdom supposes and necessitates that he has a settled purpose and plan in the work of salvation. What would creation have been without his design? Is there a fish in the sea, or a fowl in the air, which was left to chance for its formation? Nay, in every bone, joint,…

  • I AM THINE, O LORD

    Amazing Grace Fanny J. Crosby, 1820–1915 Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith.
