What I Believe
QUOTE OF THE WEEK

 

Compare yourself with those who on the Lord’s Day hear nothing except the dismal sound of the world. What a privilege it is for you to hear the proclamation of the gospel!

Sunday Hymn: When in His Might the Lord

When in His Might the Lord 

When in his might the Lord
Arose to set us free,
And Zion was restored
From her captivity,
In transports then of joy and mirth
We praised the Lord of all the earth.

The nations saw with fear
The might of God displayed,
When he at last drew near
To give his people aid;
Great things for us the Lord has wrought,
And gladness to our hearts has brought.

Again refresh us, Lord,
With thy reviving love,
And be thy blessing poured
In mercy from above;
By grace revive our hearts again,
As streams refreshed by copious rain.

Although with bitter tears
The sower bears his seed,
When harvest time appears
He shall be glad indeed;
For they that in the sowing weep
Shall yet in joy and gladness reap.

Blue Trinity Hymnal

From Psalm 126

Psalm 126

A Song of Ascents.
 1 When the LORD brought back the captivity of Zion,
         We were like those who dream.
 2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter,
         And our tongue with singing.
         Then they said among the nations,
         “The LORD has done great things for them.”
 3 The LORD has done great things for us,
         And we are glad.
         
 4 Bring back our captivity, O LORD,
         As the streams in the South.
 
 5 Those who sow in tears
         Shall reap in joy.
 6 He who continually goes forth weeping,
         Bearing seed for sowing,
         Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing,
         Bringing his sheaves with him.
