Hump Day Hymns: Christian, Dost Thou See Them
Christian, dost thou see them On the holy ground, How the powers of darkness Rage thy steps around? Christian, up and smite them, Counting gain but loss, In the strength that cometh By the holy cross.

Hump Day Hymns: Come, Lord, and Tarry Not

If Christ is mine, then all is mine, And more than angels know; Both present things and things to come, And grace and glory too. If Christ is mine, let friends forsake, And earthly comforts flee; He, the full source of every good, Is more than all to me. If Christ is mine, unharmed I…

Hump Day Hymns: Alas! And Did My Savior Bleed
Alas! And did my Savior bleed, And did my Sovereign die! Would He devote that sacred dead For sinners such as I! Was it for sins that I have done He suffered on the tree! Amazing pity! Grace unknown! And love beyond degree! Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut its glories in, When Christ,…

Hump Day Hymns – Lent edition: The Glory of These Forty Days
The glory of these forty days We celebrate with songs of praise; For Christ, by whom all things were made, Himself has fasted and has prayed. Alone and fasting, Moses saw The loving God who gave the law; And to Elijah, fasting, came The steeds and chariots of flame. So Daniel trained his mystic sight,…
