My Hymn Of Praise
“It is well with my soul;” “He keeps me singing” “Day by day.”
“His name is Wonderful,” “He took my sins away.”
“Standing on the promises” – “I am resolved” to “Trust and obey.”
“Jesus is coming again” – “What if it were today?”
“All hail the power of Jesus’ name,” “Oh, He’s done so much for me.”
“I know whom I have believed,” – “Saved by the blood” “At Calvary.”
“My faith has found a resting place,” “A shelter in the time of storm;”
“Safe am I” in “The Haven of rest,” “Leaning on the everlasting arms.”
“Onward, Christian soldiers,” “Hold the fort” “The fight is on;”
“Stand up, stand up for Jesus;” “We’re marching to Zion.”
“All hail the power of Jesus’ name;” There’s “Power in the blood.”
“Faith is the victory,” “When the enemy comes in like a flood.”
“‘Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,” “His name is Wonderful” to me.
“When we all get to heaven,” “Praise Him, praise Him,” “What a day that will be”!
“Face to face with Christ, My Saviour,” coming to Him “Just as I am;”
I will see “My Saviour first of all” – Oh, “Worthy is the Lamb”!

I love those old hymns of the faith. They are so precious to me. I know I could never hold a candle to their work, but I wanted to honour those songwriters and their faith. Here is my attempt to take just a few of my favourite hymns, and weave their titles into a song of sorts. I included one of my own poems in this song to make it flow, as I could not find a hymn ready at hand that would fit that stanza. Hope you don’t mind too much.
Psalm 33:3 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
