Amazing Grace

We sang this hymn today at choir. I really liked what we did today and I can see that I'm going to love Choir. I enjoyed the drama, but choir was defiantly my favourite of the two.



Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.


T'was Grace that taught...
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
the hour I first believed.


Through many dangers, toils and snares...
we have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
and Grace will lead us home.


The Lord has promised good to me...
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be...
as long as life endures.


When we've been here ten thousand years...
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
then when we've first begun.


Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

Firmly I Believe and Truly

Firmly I believe and truly
God is Three, and God is One
And I next acknowledge duly
Manhood taken by the Son;

And I trust and hope most fully
In that manhood crucified;
And each thought and deed unruly
Do to death, as He has died.

Simply to His grace and wholly
Light and life and strength belong;
And I love supremely, solely,
Him the holy, Him the strong.

And I hold in veneration,
For the love of Him alone,
Holy Church as His creation,
and her teachings, as His own.

Adoration aye be given,
With and through the angelic host,
To the God of earth and heaven,
Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

Jesus, my Lord, my God, my all,

Jesus, my Lord, my God, my all,
How can I love thee as I ought?
And how revere this Wonderful Gift,
So far surpassing hope or thought?
Sweet Sacrament, we Thee adore;
Oh, make us love Thee more and more.

Had I but Mary's sinless heart
to love Thee with my dearest King,
Oh, with what bursts of fervent praise
Thy goodness, Jesus, would I sing!
Sweet Sacrament, we Thee adore;
Oh, make us love Thee more and more.

We stand for God!

I'm going to start posting up one hymn every week. I love hymns, especially old ones. They're my favorite way to pour out my heart to God.

We stand for God! and for His glory;
The Lord supreme and God of all;
Against His foes we raise His standard;
Around the Cross we hear His call.

Strengthen our faith, Redeemer;
Guard us when danger is nigh;
To Thee we pledge our lives and service;
For God we live, for God we'll die,
To Thee we pledge our lives and service,
For God we live, for God we'll die.

We stand for God! Jesus our Master
Has died to save with love untold;
His law divine and truth unchanging
In this our land their place must hold.

Strengthen our faith, Redeemer, etc.

We stand for God! In ages olden
He placed "the Cross" our stars beside;
Oh may our land gracios and golden
Be faithful to the Crucified.

Stregthen our faith, Redeemer, etc.
