Once again on Friday, we pause to GIVE THANKS to our Heavenly Father for His Goodness towards us and all of mankind. We have been doing a series of Hymns of Prayer these past few Fridays. We have observed that the present day church meetings do not always sing the Hymns of Faith and do not always sing certain scriptures that were set to music to encourage one another.
As PRAYER sets up the appropriate conditions for supernatural divine interventions in our lives, our songs and hymns and spiritual songs will positively CHARGE the atmosphere that surrounds us as we make melodies in our heart to the Glory of God our Heavenly Father!
We Gather Together to ask the Lord’s Blessings
We gather together to ask the Lord’s Blessings;
He chastens and hastens His Will to make known.
The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing.
Sing praises to His Name; He forgets not His own.
Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,
Ordaining, maintaining His Kingdom Divine;
So from the beginning the fight we were winning;
Thou, Lord, were at our side, all glory be Thine!
We all do extol Thee, Thou Leader triumphant,
And pray that Thou still our Defender will be.
Let Thy congregation escape tribulation;
Thy Name be ever praised! O Lord, make us free!
Words & Music: This song of praise was originally written in 1597 to celebrate a Dutch victory. It appeared in Nederlandtsche Gedenckclanck, by Adrianus Valerius (Haarlem, Holland: 1626) (Wilt heden nu treden). Arranged & translated from Dutch to Latin by Eduard Kremser in Sechs Altniederländische Volkslieder (Leipzig, Germany: 1877). Translated from German to English by Theodore Baker, 1894.
