    As a teenager - I loved - "I would love to tell you what I think of Jesus, Since I've found in Him a friend so strong and true .... "

    Since I found Christ at age 18 - it's "Amazing Grace - How sweet the sound - that saved a WRETCH like me .... "

    "My Lord Is Near Me All The Time"

    I've seen it in the lightning, heard it in the thunder
    and felt it in the rain; My Lord is near me all the time
    My Lord is near me all the time

    The Lightning/ I see His mighty power
    The Thunder/ He shakes me to my very foundation
    The Rain/ He sends me refreshing showers

    The Baptist Hymnal 1991/Barbara Gaultney

    and of course "There Is Power in the Blood"

    I can't pin it down to just one hymn and i dont think i would want to. Current favourites are:

    The Potters Hand, i think the words to this are really beautiful.

    The Lords My Shephered ( the modern version)

    Make me a Channel of your Peace

    Be Thou My Vision

    I Exalt Thee

    What a Faithful God Have I

    There are others, but i can't remember all the titles just now.

    It goes without saying that I love the old hymns,

    Love Divine
    He Keeps Me Singing
    To God Be the Glory, just to name a few.

    My favorite "newer" song (although it's not ccm) is "The King of Who I Am."

    You are my King, You are the Lamb
    Lion of Judah, Seed of Abraham,
    The Holy One, God's Only Son
    You are the King of who I am.

    Hosanna, Blessed be the Rock
    Blessed be the Rock of my salvation,
    Hosanna, Blessed be the Rock
    Blessed be the Rock of my salvation.

    If I could only pick one, it would have to be...The Midnight Call. I can hardly get through it without crying.

    "The Old Rugged Cross"
    "How Great Thou Art"
    "Count Your Blessings"
    "Leaning on the Everlasting Arms"

    The Lord `s my Shepherd (tune Crimond )
    I need The every hour
    I know whom I have believed

    It's probably a toss-up between "His voice as the sound of the dulcimer sweet"
    and Chuck Wesley's "Come away to the skies". Among those more widely known and sung I love (despite my not being a Biblical inerrantist!) "How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord" — preferably all seven verses. Among many many others.

    The Love of God
    by Fredrick Lehman


    The love of God is greater far
    Than tongue or pen can ever tell;
    It goes beyond the highest star,
    And reaches to the lowest hell;
    The guilty pair, bowed down with care,
    God gave His Son to win;
    His erring child He reconciled,
    And pardoned from his sin.

    Refrain

    O love of God, how rich and pure!
    How measureless and strong!
    It shall forevermore endure
    The saints’ and angels’ song.

    When years of time shall pass away,
    And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall,
    When men, who here refuse to pray,
    On rocks and hills and mountains call,
    God’s love so sure, shall still endure,
    All measureless and strong;
    Redeeming grace to Adam’s race—
    The saints’ and angels’ song.

    Refrain

    Could we with ink the ocean fill,
    And were the skies of parchment made,
    Were every stalk on earth a quill,
    And every man a scribe by trade,
    To write the love of God above,
    Would drain the ocean dry.
    Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
    Though stretched from sky to sky.

    Refrain


    ((I love "word pictures" and the last verse is an AWESOME word picture for me!!))
