My Testimony As I walked inside the little church house my mind drifted back to a day when I was a lost sinner and didn't know how to pray. The church then begin singing of how Jesus wanted to save and on the old cross of Calvery to us his life he gave. Then in the back I heard shouting prasies to Jesus on high I know in my heart that moment Hell was my home if I died. Then something inside of me happened the spirit of Jesus took hold I knew the Altar was waiting and to it I must go. At the Altar I knelt on my knees and to the Lord I did pray then a small voice from Heaven said, get up my child you're saved. Today I'm so thankful that the Lord cared enough for me he gave me a home in Heaven he saved me and set me free..

There is hope in CHRIST JESUS, who gave HIS life to a world in need of hope and HIS light, a world lost in the darkness of sin and its depravity. There is life in the blood, and without its shedding, there would be no hope for the remission of sin. JESUS, who bore our stripes and took our place, the WORD made flesh, the SON of GOD, the ONLY WAY to the FATHER. It is because of HIM there is hope; and who the LORD sets free is free indeed, for GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Brokenness is what lead me to the cross of CHRIST. HE called me out of darkness, into the light of HIS love, to be a little light that would point to HIM, the ONLY WAY home. I confess HE is the LORD of my heart, and that because of HIS love for me, I am not who I once was. By HIS grace, I am saved though faith in the completed work of the cross and the pure love it took to think of me. We are in this journey together. Let's love one another along the way as we walk each other home.

"Be Thou my Song" is a line from seventeenth-century poet Edward Taylor. In his meditation on Philippians 2:9, Taylor finds that his ability to compose poetry falls short of his desire to glorify God, so he prays, “ That I thy glorious Praise may Trumpet right, / Be thou my Song, and make Lord, mee thy Pipe.” In one way or another, all of the poets included in the chapters of Be Thou My Song strive to convey their wonder for God' s unending grace and mercy in their own limited ways; He provides the content, the song, while the writers are merely the conduits, the pipe. By reading these poems carefully, we can share in their gratitude for how God cares for us, both here on earth and in our final heavenly home.In each chapter, you will find a poem, presented in its entirety, followed by an exploration of that poem and some questions to contemplate afterwards. The goal of these explorations is to provide readers with a deeper appreciation, a deeper understanding, and a deeper love of what each poet has given to us.
