In times like this, you need a saviour
Re: Which Hymn Or Song Represents The True Essence Of Christianity by Nobody: 4:10pm On May 21, 2017
It pays to serve Jesus, I speak from my heart,
He'll always be with us, if we do our part
There's naught in this wide world can pleasure afford;
There's peace and contentment in serving the Lord.

CHORUS
I love Him far better than in days of yore
I'll serve Him more truly than ever before,
I'll do as He bids me, whatever the cost,
I'll be a true soldier, I'll die at my post.

And oft when I'm tempted to turn from the track,
I think of my Saviour, my mind wanders back
To the place where they nailed Him on Calvary's tree.
I heard a voice saying, "I suffered for thee."

A place I remember where I was set free,
'Twas where I found pardon, a heaven to me.
There Jesus spoke sweetly to my weary soul,
My sins were forgiven, He made my heart whole.

How rich is the blessing the world cannot give,
I'm satisfied fully for Jesus to live;
Though friends may forsake me and trial arise,
I am trusting Jesus, His love never dies.

There is no one like Jesus can cheer me today.
His love and His kindness can ne'er fade away,
In winter and summer, in sunshine and rain,
His love and affection are always the same.

Will you have this blessing that Jesus bestows,
A free full salvation from sin's bitter throes?
O come to the Saviour, to Calvary flee,
The fountain is opened, is flowing for thee

As a matter of fact, the Christian faith is a walk of and for life. Different hymns at different phases of the journey captures the true essence of the walk. For today, this....

Immortal! Invisible

Immortal, Invisible God only wise
In light inaccessible his from our eyes
Most blessed, most glorious, the ancient of days
Almighty, creator, thy great name we praise

Unresting unhasting and silent as night
Nor wanting nor wasting thou rulest in might
Thy justice like mountains high soaring above
Thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love

To all life thou givest to both great and small
In all life thou livest the true life of all
We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree
And wither and perish, but nought changeth thee

Great father of glory, pure father of light
The angels adore thee all veiling their sights
All laud we would render o help us to see
This only the splendour of light hideth thee

Though the world allure with its gilded charm,
CGS No.: 143


Verse 1
Though the world allure with its gilded charm,
I'm a child of God, whom it cannot harm;
He will me uphold by His mighty arm,
Every moment of my day.
Chorus
I've a friend who will ev'ry need supply,
I've a home far beyond the starry sky,
And you know, that is just the reason why,
I am singing Hallelujah!


Verse 2
I can ne'er forget how upon the tree
Laid the Son of God, there to die for me;
Yet to save my soul, thus it had to be,
There could be no other way.
Chorus
I've a friend who will ev'ry need supply,
I've a home far beyond the stary sky,
And you know, that is just the reason why,
I am singing Hallelujah!

Verse 3
I would e'er be true to my Lord and King,
Every waking hour praises to Him sing,
Knowing that at last He my soul shall bring,
Ever more with Him to stay.


Chorus
I've a friend who will ev'ry need supply,
I've a home far beyond the stary sky,
And you know, that is just the reason why,
I am singing Hallelujah!

Not related to topic but we Christians more than often blame Muslims for using the sword to spread their religion. I think Christianity has done the same, this below popular Christian hymn sounds like a war cry to me...

Stand up, stand up for Jesus! ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high His royal banner, it must not suffer loss:
From vict’ry unto vict’ry, His army shall He lead,
Till every foe is vanquished, and Christ is Lord indeed.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus! The trumpet call obey:
Forth to the mighty conflict, in this His glorious day;
Ye that are men now serve Him against unnumbered foes;
Let courage rise with danger, and strength to strength oppose.


Stand up, stand up for Jesus! Stand in His strength alone,
The arm of flesh will fail you, ye dare not trust your own;
Put on the gospel armor, and watching unto prayer,
Where calls the voice of duty, be never wanting there.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus! the strife will not be long;
This day the noise of battle, the next the victor’s song;
To him that overcometh a crown of life shall be;
He with the King of glory shall reign eternally.
the song isn't taking about a physical Battle but a spiritual one, it says " the arm of flesh shall fail you"

Jesus shall reign where ever the sun
Doth it's successive journey run
His kingdom spread from shore to shore
Till moon shall wax and wane no more.

My favorite.

It is a Psalm. A Psalm is a Hymn and a doxology.
