The Valley of Blessing

I have entered the valley of blessing so sweet,
And Jesus abides with me there;
And His Spirit and blood make my cleansing complete,
And His perfect love casteth out fear.

There is peace in the valley of blessing so sweet,
And plenty the land doth impart;
And there’s rest for the weary, worn traveler’s feet,
And joy for the sorrowing heart.

There is love in the valley of blessing so sweet,
Such as none but the blood-washed may feel,
When Heaven comes down redeemed spirits to greet,
And Christ sets His covenant seal.

There’s a song in the valley of blessing so sweet,
And angels would fain join the strain,
As with rapturous praises we bow at His feet,
Crying, Worthy the Lamb that was slain!

Oh, come to this valley of blessing so sweet,
Where Jesus will fullness bestow;
And believe, and receive, and confess Him,
That all His salvation may know.

As a tree beside the water,

Through the storm my Lord I see,
Pointing upward to that haven,
Where my loved ones wait for me.

When by grief my heart is broken,
And the sunshine steals away,
Then His grace, in mercy given,
Changes darkness into day.

When at last I stand before Him,
Oh, what joy it will afford,
Just to see the sinner ransomed,
And behold my sovereign Lord.

Anchored to the Rock of Ages,
I shall not be moved.

Hebrews 6:19

oly:


I’m Anchored In The Rock Of Ages

Some lives are anchored in houses or cars,
Others are clinging to loud and smoky bars,
Some have their money but still they lose their mind
And many, they're just dying on the vine.

Some people are anchored in too much food,
Others dream of moving to a nicer neighborhood,
Some keep shifting and building on the sand,
But me I'm building on The Man.

I’m anchored in The Rock of Ages,
I’m anchored in The Rock of Ages;
No matter how the storms of life thunders and rages,
I’m anchored in The Rock of Ages.

Our fathers and their seed enfold;
That ancient promise standeth sure,
And shall while heaven and earth endure.

Look down upon us while we pray,
And visit us in grace today;
These little ones in mercy take
And make them Thine for Jesus’ sake.

While they the outward sign receive,
Wilt Thou Thy Holy Spirit give,
And keep and help them by Thy power
In every hard and trying hour.

Guide Thou their feet in holy ways:
Shine on them through the darkest days;
Uphold them till their life be past,
And bring them all to Heaven at last.

Praising Him in love and wonder,

Following closely where He leads us,
None can hurt and naught can harm.

Step by step my feet can climb.

Jesus keep me closer — closer,
Step by step and day by day;
Stepping in Thy very footprints
Walking with Thee all the way.

All the day, all the way,
Keeping step with Jesus.

Help each to pay his sacred vow,
And fill us with Thy love.

Now let us come before Him, with song and prayer adore Him,

In woe we often languish and pass through times of anguish,
Of wars and trepidation alarming every nation.
As mothers watch are keeping o’er children who are sleeping,
Their fear and grief assuaging when angry storms are waging.

So God His own is shielding and help to them is yielding.
When need and woe distress them, His loving arms caress them.
O Thou who dost not slumber, remove what would encumber
Our work, which prospers never unless Thou bless it ever.

To all forlorn a Father, and Thine erring children gather.
Be with the sick and ailing, their Comforter unfailing;
Dispelling grief and sadness, oh, give them joy and gladness!

Above all else, Lord, send us Thy Spirit to attend us,
Within our hearts abiding, to Heav’n our footsteps guiding.
All this Thy hand bestows, Thy Life, whence our life flows.
To all Thy name confessing grant, Lord, Thy New Year’s blessing!

[Psalmist]

Praise the Lord III

just one question,

who is the Lord III?

keep shinin

jerm

First this about "Praise the Lord"

There was the original "Praise the Lord" thread in ECT - I had it closed because of a TOL forum member had posted disparaging, and I had the whole thread removed, and Knight or one of the mods took care of and removed the thread.

There was a "Praise the Lord II" thread in ECT - A continuation of of "Praise the Lord",the OP had a warning if there was any posting other than that of Praising the Lord, I would have it closed and removed. Last September Knight changed servers and did some house cleaning to make TOL more efficient, when Knight did the house cleaning "Praise the Lord II" was lost forever.

Now there is "Praise the Lord III" in ECT - A continuation of "Praise the Lord II", and as can be read it is thread with a Scripture verse(s) and a hymn, the "Praise the Lord" threads are meant to be sort of a TOL morning and evening devotional for our fellow TOL forum members, some I'm sure get encouragement from it and that is my goal.

I like reading daily devotional books and studying what the author has penned, I continue to do a daily study of the Book of Psalms as well as the N/T. I like reading old old hymns and gospel songs, the too are encouraging and up lifting.

Now to jeremysdemo's question...

Praise the Lord III

just one question,

who is the Lord III?

Who is the Lord III...There is no Lord III in the ranks of Christianity that I know of and so far as this thread is concerned it a continuing designation of "Praise the Lord"​

Galatians 2:20

Not I, But Christ

Not I, but Christ…

In every look and action, in every thought and word.

Not I, but Christ…
To gently soothe in sorrow, to wipe the falling tear;
To lift the weary burden, not I, but Christ, to hush away all fear.

Not I but Christ...
No idle words e’er falling, no needless bustling sound;
No self important bearing, no trace of I be found.

Not I, but Christ…
My every need supplying, my strength and health to be;
For body, soul, and spirit, here and eternally.

Christ, only Christ…
Ere long will fill my vision, glory excelling soon, full soon I’ll see,
Christ, only Christ, my every wish fulfilling — Christ, my all in all to be.

O to be saved from myself, dear Lord,
O to be lost in Thee, that it might be no more I,
But Christ, that lives in me.

Psalm 91:9-10

Because Thy Trust is God Alone

Will bear thee safely in their hands,
Will keep thee, lest, if left alone,
Thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Though fierce and treacherous foes assail,
Their power and wrath shall not prevail;
Their cruel strength, their venomed spite,
Thou shalt o’ercome with conquering might.
Because on Me he set his love,
I will his constant Savior prove,
And since to him My name is known,
I will exalt him as Mine own.

As oft as he shall call me on Me,
Most gracious shall My answer be;
I will be with him in distress,
And in his trouble I will bless.
Complete deliverance I will give,
And honor him while he shall live;
Abundant life I will bestow,
To him My full salvation show.
