One of my favourite pastimes is reading through hymns, reading about hymns, listening to hymns. In a previous post I named a few of my favourite hymns, and thought it was time to name a few more. Each time I ponder the words of the following hymns I am reminded from where the Lord has brought me and how much further I have to go. Praise the Lord that He is Faithful and True! The hymns listed below are ones that challenge me in my walk with Christ:
“Be Still, My Soul” – words by Catharina A. D. von Schlegel, translated by Jane Borthwick, music by Jean Sibelius
“I’d Rather Have Jesus” – words by Rhea F. Miller, music by George B. Shea
“Take My Life and Let It Be” – words by Frances R. Havergal, music by Henri A. C. Malan
