Dear Friends,

How are things going for you? Do you feel you have something to sing about? If not, carefully meditate on today’s devotional and see if its words do not mirror your experience. If so, why aren’t you singing? Have you lost sight of what’s really important? God bless you.

Because of Calvary,

John Janney

• 1 Timothy 1:15

  1 Timothy 1:15  English Standard Version (ESV)
  15 The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost.

I Timothy 1:15

“I will sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me,
How He left His home in glory,
For the cross on Calvary.

I was lost, but Jesus found me,
Found the sheep that went astray;
Threw His loving arms around me,
Drew me back into His way.

I was bruised, but Jesus healed me;
Faint was I from many a fall;
Sight was gone, and fears possessed me,
But He freed me from them all.

Days of darkness still come o’er me,
Sorrow’s paths I often tread,
But the Savior still is with me,
By His hand I’m safely led.

Yes I’ll sing the wondrous story
Of the Christ who died for me,
Sing it with the saints in glory
Gathered by the crystal sea.”
