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 was filled and overwhelmed with light, and love, and joy in the Holy Ghost, and seemed just ready to go away from the body. I could scarcely refrain from expressing my joy aloud, in the midst of the service. I had in the mean time, an overwhelming sense of the glory of God, as the Great Eternal All, and of the happiness of having my own will entirely subdued to his will. I knew that the foretaste of glory, which I then had in my soul, came from him, that I certainly should go to him, and should, as it were, drop into the Divine Being, and be swallowed up in God.” – Sarah Edwards, wife of Jonathan Edwards

Verse of the Day

Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others. — Philippians 2:3-4 (NKJV)
