  • Morning & Evening

    Blessed is the fact that Christians can rejoice even in the deepest distress; although trouble may surround them, they still sing; and, like many birds, they sing best in their cages. The waves may roll over them, but their souls soon rise to the surface and see the light of God’s countenance; they have a…

  • HE KEEPS ME SINGING

    Amazing Grace Words and Music by Luther B. Bridgers, 1884–1948 If you obey My commands, you will remain in My love, just as I have obeyed My Father’s commands and remain in His love. I have told you this so that My joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. (John…

  • Morning & Evening

    The streams of living water which flow from Jerusalem are not dried up by the parching heats of sultry midsummer any more than they were frozen by the cold winds of blustering winter. Rejoice, O my soul, that thou art spared to testify of the faithfulness of the Lord. The seasons change and thou changest,…

  • WHY DO I SING ABOUT JESUS?

    Amazing Grace Words and Music by Albert A. Ketchum, 1894–1982 Shout with joy to God, all the earth! Sing to the glory of His name; offer Him glory and praise! (Psalm 66:1, 2) Fill me with gladness from above,Hold me by strength divine;Lord, let the glow of your great loveThrough my whole being shine.— Unknown…

  • Morning & Evening

    Behold the superlative liberality of the Lord Jesus, for he hath given us his all. Although a tithe of his possessions would have made a universe of angels rich beyond all thought, yet was he not content until he had given us all that he had. It would have been surprising grace if he had…

  • CHRIST LIVETH IN ME

    Amazing Grace Daniel W. Whittle, 1840–1901 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ liveth in me. (Galatians 2:20) “Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you?” (1 Corinthians 3:16). One can almost hear the apostle Paul exhorting the carnal Christians at…

  • Morning & Evening

    Let us not imagine that the soul sleeps in insensibility. “Today shalt thou be with me in paradise,” is the whisper of Christ to every dying saint. They “sleep in Jesus,” but their souls are before the throne of God, praising him day and night in his temple, singing hallelujahs to him who washed them…

  • THE HAVEN OF REST

    Amazing Grace Henry L. Gilmour, 1836–1920 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where Jesus, who went before us, has entered on our behalf. (Hebrews 6:19) What stabilizers are to a ship in stormy water, the conscious presence of Christ is…

  • Morning & Evening

    It is ever the Holy Spirit’s work to turn our eyes away from self to Jesus; but Satan’s work is just the opposite of this, for he is constantly trying to make us regard ourselves instead of Christ. He insinuates, “Your sins are too great for pardon; you have no faith; you do not repent…

  • MY SINS ARE BLOTTED OUT, I KNOW!

    Amazing Grace Words and Music by Merrill Dunlop, 1905–2002 I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions, for My own sake, and remembers your sins no more. (Isaiah 43:25) Forgiveness—when God buries our sins and does not mark the grave.— Louis Paul Lehman Many Christians have suffered great emotional, mental, and even physical…
