One of my parishioners gave me a collection of CD’s called Our Daily Bread. It is a four disc box set of the most beautiful instrumentals of hymns –the hymns that we know and resonate in our hearts. These hymns we learned as a child from hearing them over and over again as our mothers sweetly sang while standing next to us in the pew on Sunday mornings…
The churches one foundation is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is his new creation by water and the Word.
From heaven he came and sought her to be his holy bride;
And with his own blood he bought her, and for her life he died.
When I was a child my mother hummed these hymns around the house as she was working and they became ingrained in my soul. As I grew and became independent these hymns were ever-present with me, where I could easily grasp them in times when I was alone and sought comfort.

Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that thou art.
Thou my best thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, thy presence my light.
I still struggle with Ashley on this issue. He is adamant that “modern” people don’t connect with these “ancient” hymns. I beg to differ. Proof is held is the sweet, sweet hymn from 1860, Jesus Loves Me, which echoed freely through the halls of this tiny “antiquated” church. This week, Vacation Bible School was a pure listening treasure as the smallest child to the oldest adult joined in the familiar chorus and sang out in unison the words they all had committed to memory…
Jesus loves me! This I know, for the Bible tells me so.
Little ones to him belong; they are weak, but he is strong.
Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so.
Some things never become antiquated, like Jesus Christ, himself. With that thought I leave you as I hum another everlasting favorite of mine…
What a fellowship, what a joy divine, leaning on the everlasting arms;
What a blessedness, what a peace is mine,
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
Leaning, leaning, safe and secure from all alarms;
Leaning, leaning, leaning on the everlasting arms.
