Good afternoon!
Here's another conference highlight, hymn-wise. I loved this one even before the conference. It's one of my most favorite hymns. This is actually written by Calvin. Enjoy!
Have a great day! It's beautiful outside!
In our Sure Redeemer,
Sarah
I Greet Thee Who My Sure Redeemer Art
I greet thee, who my sure Redeemer art,
My only trust and Saviour of my heart,
Who pain didst undergo for my poor sake;
I pray thee from our hearts all cares to take.
Thou art the King of mercy and of grace,
Reigning omnipotent in every place:
So come, O King, and our whole being sway;
Shine on us with the light of thy pure day.
Thou art the life, by which alone we live,
And all our substance and our strength receive;
O comfort us in death's approaching hour,
Strong-hearted then to face it by thy pow'r.
Thou hast the true and perfect gentleness,
No harshness hast thou and no bitterness:
Make us to taste the sweet grace found in thee
And ever stay in thy sweet unity.
Our hope is in no other save in thee;
Our faith is built upon thy promise free;
O grant to us such stronger hope and sure
That we can boldly conquer and endure.

Oh Sarah - this is my all-time favorite hymn! Thank you so much for posting it! - Brielle <3
Brielle,
I thought of you as I was posting hoping that you would check the blog this week. I know you love this hymn and want it sung at your funeral. I'm with ya...one of my most favorites ever :) Such sweet comfort and precious promises! We sung it twice at the conference and I thought of you :)
Lovingly,
Sarah
