Hello everyone. I have been intentionally spending less time on the internet
recently, which explains why my posts on here might be rather sporadic and not very frequent. I do hope you all are doing well, and while I have an upcoming post in the works,
just thought I would share a (new to me) hymn that I discovered in an old hymn book about a week ago. The words were encouraging to me, and I hope it encourages you as well.
Christ, My All
by Horatius Bonar
In the hour when guilt assails me,
On His gracious name I call,
Then I find the heavenly fullness,
Christ, my righteousness, my all.
Chorus:
All my song when standing yonder,
Shall be Christ, my joy, my all;
This shall ever be my anthem,
"Christ my glory, Christ my all";
This shall ever be my anthem,
"Christ my glory, Christ my all."
In the night when sorrow clouds me,
And the burning teardrops fall,
Then I sing the song of patience,
Christ, my Brother, and my all.
(Chorus)
In the day when this immortal,
Shall fling off its mortal thrall,
Then my song of resurrection
Shall be Christ, my all in all.
(Chorus)
Upon looking up this hymn to find a copy online to share, I discovered this page
that has several more verses and also more lines to each stanza. You can read that more complete version of it here.
