ukotmi:
And can it be that I should gain
An interest in the Savior’s blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain—
For me, who Him to death pursued?
Amazing love! How can it be,
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be,
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

’Tis mystery all: th’Immortal dies:
Who can explore His strange design?
In vain the firstborn seraph tries
To sound the depths of love divine.
’Tis mercy all! Let earth adore,
Let angel minds inquire no more.
’Tis mercy all! Let earth adore;
Let angel minds inquire no more.

Composed by Charles Wesley. I soar with the hymn

It's also a wonderful one. Any hymn reminding us of the great work at Calvary should be committed to memory, and sung over and over.

Charles Wesley was indeed a great Christian hymnist.

Yes, agreed. But to me, I keep singing one particular hymn almost all the day long.

I remember we used to sing this your hymn in.my sec school days. It's a great one also.

My faith is leaning on the Word,
The living Word of God;
Salvation through my Saviour's name,
Salvation through His blood.

Chorus:

I need no other argument,
I need no other plea;
It is enough that Jesus died,
And that He died for me...

Epic!!!!

Yes. Let me add one more stanza. Ponder the words.

Enough for me that Jesus saves,
This ends my fear and doubt;
A sinful soul I come to Him,
He will never cast me out.

You will rededicate your life if a classical pianist play this hymn on a solemn Sunday service.

Does Jesus care when my heart is pained
too deeply for mirth and song;
as the burdens press, and the cares distress,
and the way grows weary and long?
Chorus:
O yes, He cares, I know He cares!
His heart is touched with my grief;
when the days are weary, the long nights dreary,
I know my Saviour cares.

There are so many of them that it's hard to choose.
This one easily comes to mind though.

God give us Christian homes!
Homes where the Bible is loved and taught,
Homes where the Master?s will is sought,
Homes crowned with beauty Your love has wrought;
God give us Christian homes;
God give us Christian homes!

This song is now becoming hotter than I imagine. Maybe is now I settle down to read meaning to each words.

Christ Arose.
Low in the grave He lay,
Jesus, my Savior,
Waiting the coming day,
Jesus, my Lord!

Refrain:
Up from the grave He arose,
With a mighty triumph o’er His foes,
He arose a Victor from the dark domain,
And He lives forever, with His saints to reign.
He arose! He arose!
Hallelujah! Christ arose!

Vainly they watch His bed,
Jesus, my Savior;
Vainly they seal the dead,
Jesus, my Lord!

( Sing Chorus)

Death cannot keep his Prey,
Jesus, my Savior;
He tore the bars away,
Jesus, my Lord!

One of my favorite......

Spirit divine, attend our prayers
and make this house thy home
descend with all thy gracious power
oh come, great Spirit come!
