Amazing Grace, How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me

T'was blind but now I see

I need no other argument
I need no other plea
It is enough that Jesus died
And that he died for me


Only me today I have 4 FTC on front page. I wish this thing comes with monetary reward. But no Seun will never dash anybody N1.
Anyway this is a sign of better things to come. Just shower me with some likes and I'll be Ok

Finally you can be sure that most youths born from 1990 upwards cannot relate or know these wonderful hymns that were inspired by God through the writers and that inspired some of us while growing up.
Pls let us not allow these hymns to be lost in our Christian journey especially in this era of Pentecostal churches where noise and uninspiring and worldly songs has taken over the music ministry
This was my late dad's favourite. I always hummed it every morning

There is a green hill far away,
without a city wall,
where our Dear Lord was crucified,
who died to save us all.
We may - we may not know,
We Can't- we cannot tell,
What pains- what pains he had to bear
But we- but we believe
It was- it was for us
He hung- He hung and suffered there



Kai I so much love this hymn bk den in sec sch

1. Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in thee; Let the water and the blood, From thy wounded side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save from wrath and make me pure.

Shackled by an heavy burden Neath a load of guilt and shame Now the hands of Jesus touch me and now I am no longer the same
He touched me oh he touched me and oh that joy that floods my soul something happened and now I know He touched me and make me whole

Will your anchor hold in the storms of life
When the clouds unfold their wings of strife
When the strong tides lift and the cables strain
Will your anchor drift or firm remain

Chrs:
We have an anchor that keeps the souls
steadfast and strong when the the billows roll
fasten to the rock which cannot move
Standeth firm and deep in the saviour's love

I've realised that some words in some hymns change. Over time some of the words in some songs are changed and even their tune. What I know the word to be is 'evidence' not 'argument'. that's my take.

Then u should have factored in the fact that words in songs can change and not outrightly condemned my choice of words.
I have used the word argument for years so if anything changed maybe you changed it.

My other best hymn is 'oh the love of the lord is the essence but its verse three that makes me cry..

There’ve been times when I’ve turned from his presence,
and I’ve walked other paths, other ways.
But I’ve called on his name in the dark of my shame,
and his mercy was gentle as silence.

Mine too. We actually sang it today in church

Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me.

Purehuman:


This verse reminds of my childhood. Seriously, I missed those old days. There was this sweetness in being young and godly. As I read through this hymn, I just pictured where I used to sit in church and the people around me at the time.

Things have changed and life is moving so fast that we don't get to fully enjoy the moment.

I think that sweetness is more from lack of responsibilities and naivity.

I also remember the joy and fun then.... I am interesting remembering my parents too and I am realizing that it wasn't same for them and other parents.

While the kids could gather and discuss favorite bible character or what we learnt or planned elaborately for our Children's day and other church activities, our parents mostly discussed fees, businesses and how to raise money cûm create time from their busy schedule to sustain our interests.

@OP:

I love hymns so can't have a favorite.

I have plenty I love but today I’m loving

Above All by Micheal Smith


Above all powers
Above all kings
Above all nature and all created things
Above all wisdom and all the ways of man
You were here before the world began
Above all kingdoms
Above all thrones
Above all wonders the world has ever known
Above all wealth and treasures of the earth
There's no way to measure what you're worth

This is the hymn that usually melts my heart whenever I hear it being sung especially during Holy Communion. It goes like this:
Sweet Sacrament divine,
Hid in your earthly home,
Lo! round your lowly shrine,
With suppliant hearts we come,
Jesus, to you our voice we raise,
In songs of love and heartfelt praise,
Sweet Sacrament divine (2x).

My favourite in secondary school. It still moves me to tears

"Come Thou Fount Of Every Blessing"

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace
Streams of mercy, never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise
Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by flaming tongues above
Praise the mount, I'm fixed upon it
Mount of Thy unchanging love

Yu get mouth.

I just say make i search say person must type this hymn
