"After washing the hands and the bringing in of lights, each is asked to stand forth and sing, as he can, a hymn to God-either one from the Holy Scriptures or one of his own composing."
Tertullian, c.197 A.D.

What a God to offer up Himself! "Saved alone by God's good grace and pleasure: Filling me with peace I've never known. This my claim, my humble adoration: I am safe within my Father's home." Verse 2 Ever since creation He has called me To His presence where I'll find all joy. Forming me to be more like my Savior, By my side as Holy Comforter. "Sanctified! My God You're always working, Bringing me into your Presence. I see You beginning Your work on me; Now I'll watch for when You will complete." Verse 3 There are times when trials seem to take me From the safety of my Father's plan. When this world comes crushing down upon me May I come to Him with open hands: "Turn to me and heal my broken spirit! Give me grace because the night is long." Through the tears, I'll look up to my Savior, hear Him say, "I'm with you all along." Verse 4 This is peace, to see my growth that comes from All the trials that I so often fear. Evidence that God is at work in me; Now I'll sing with all the saints long passed: "Hope again, for God is always for us, Giving peace the world has never known. He to you will be a faithful Father If in faith you press into His grace." Free sheet music below:
