Hymn 619. I Sing The Mighty Power Of God

Posted on June 13, 2025 by Worldwide Prayer Point

I sing the mighty power of God,

That made the mountains rise,

That spread. the flowing seas abroad,

And built the lofty skies.

I sing the wisdom that ordained

The sun to rule the day;

The moon shines full at His command,

And all the stars obey.

I sing the goodness of the Lord

That filled the earth with food;

He formed the creatures with His word,

And then pronounced them good.

Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed,

Where’er I turn mine eye,

If I survey the ground I tread,

Or gaze upon the sky;

There’s not a plant or flower below

But makes Thy glories known,

And clouds arise and tempests blow

By order from Thy throne.

God’s hand is my perpetual guard,

He guides me with His eye;

Why should I then forget the Lord,

Whose love is ever nigh?

Thank You Jesus,

Hymn 780: There Is A Land Of Pure Delight

Posted on October 18, 2024 by Worldwide Prayer Point

Verse 1

There is a land of pure delight

Where saints immortal reign,

Infinite day excludes the night,

And pleasures banish pain.

We’re feeding on the living Bread,

We’re drinking at the fountain head;

And who-so drinketh, Jesus said,

Shall never, never thirst again.

Chorus

What! never thirst again?

No, never thirst again!

What! never thirst again?

No, never thirst again!

Verse 2

There everlasting spring abides,

And never withering flowers;

Death, like a narrow sea, divides

His heavenly land from ours.

Verse 3

O could we make our doubts remove

Those gloomy thoughts that rise,

And see the Canaan that we love

With unbeclouded eyes.

Verse 4

Could we but climb where Moses stood

And view the landscape o’er

Not Jordan’s stream, nor death’s cold flood,

Should fright us from the shore.

Chorus

And who-so drinketh, Jesus said,

Shall never, never thirst again!
