• “Lead me, Lord, to the Rock that is higher than I. Let me hear your word, give me grace to obey, to build steadily, stone upon stone, day by day, to do what You say. Establish my heart where floods have no power to overwhelm, for Christ’s sake. Amen.” – Elisabeth Elliot

A Symphony of One by Alan Martin

Published June 21, 2011 | By womenofchristianity
Make us a symphony of One
Focused upon One conductor
Tuned to One concert pitch
Submitted to One tempo

Content to play One part
Perfected to One sound
Resulting in One purpose
The praise of our Composer

Free us from solo vain glory
Content us to watch as we rest
Ready to play our one measure
Trusting our Maestro knows best

Teach us love’s concert ambition
Cleanse us from comparing pride
Put to death vain competition
Let harmony’s fruit now abide

That Thou blessed Lord may have pleasure
Diverse yet through unity one
Accomplishing Your One true treasure
The summation of all in Your SON

  • “My soul remained in a kind of heavenly elysium. So far as I am capable of making a comparison, I think that what I felt each minute, during the continuance of the whole time, was worth more than all the outward comfort and pleasure, which I had enjoyed in my whole life put together. It was a pure delight, which fed and satisfied the soul. It was peasure, without the least sting, or any interruption. It was a sweetness, which my soul was lost in. It seemed to be all that my feeble frame could sustain, of that fulness of joy, which is felt by those, who behold the face of Christ, and share his love in the heavenly world.” – Sarah Edwards, wife of Jonathan Edwards

Verse of the Day

And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” — Joshua 24:15 (NKJV)
