A Sparrow's Home

How lovely is your dwelling place, O LORD Almighty! My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God. Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young, a place near your altar, O LORD Almighty, my King and my God. Blessed are those who dwell in your house; they are ever praising you. Psalm 84:1-4

vast as the ocean

DateThursday, July 2, 2009 at 10:54AM

(click to enlarge)Here is love vast as the ocean

Lovingkindness as the flood

When the Prince of Life, our ransom

Shed for us His precious blood

Who His love will not remember

Who can cease to sing His praise

He can never be forgotten

Throughout heaven's eternal days

A beautiful hymn - the love song of the Welsh revival.

Listen here.
