Hymns to Help Us Through: “Ask Ye What Great Thing I Know”

Hymns to Help Us Through - Day 15 - “Ask Ye What Great Thing I Know”...

Good Monday morning, friends!! Even if the world itself should stop tomorrow, there is this one great thing I know that delights and stirs me so: His name is Jesus Christ! Let him be your song and your delight today!!

(By the way, you'll definitely want to use headphones - the sound of this pipe organ is amazing!! The words for today's hymn are below, in case you want to sing along!) :)

“Ask Ye What Great Thing I Know”

Tune: Hendon

Ask ye what great thing I know
that delights and stirs me so?
What the high reward I win?
Whose the Name I glory in?
Jesus Christ, the crucified.

(Interlude...)

Who defeats my fiercest foes?
Who consoles my saddest woes?
Who revives my fainting heart,
healing all its hidden smart?
Jesus Christ, the crucified.

(Interlude...)

Who is life in life to me?
Who the death of death will be?
Who will place me on his right,
with the countless hosts of light?
Jesus Christ, the crucified.

(Interlude...)

This is that great thing I know;
this delights and stirs me so:
Faith in him who died to save,
him who triumphed o’er the grave,
Jesus Christ, the crucified.
Amen.

Blessings, my friends! :)
