Dear Friends,
While I deeply love the glorious old hymns which teach us so much blessed truth, I also enjoy some of the choruses (not the ones that just keep repeating the same phrase over and over mindlessly but those which teach the grand truths of the gospel also). Here’s one that blessed me and I hope will bless you. May God use it to draw your heart towards Him.

Because of Calvary,
John Janney

• I Corinthians 2:9-10 (ESV)

  9 But, as it is written,
  “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
  nor the heart of man imagined,
  what God has prepared for those who love him”—
  10 these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.

“HOW HIGH AND HOW WIDE

“No eye has seen and no ear has heard
And no mind has ever conceived
The glorious things that You have prepared
For every one who has believed
You brought us near and You called us Your own
And made us joint heirs with Your Son

Objects of mercy who should have known wrath
We’re filled with unspeakable joy
Riches of wisdom, unsearchable wealth
And the wonder of knowing Your voice
You are our treasure and our great reward
Our hope and our glorious King

How high and how wide
How deep and how long
How sweet and how strong is Your love
How lavish Your grace
How faithful Your ways
How great is Your love, O Lord “

[Mark Altrogge]
