TO ALL CHRISTIAN MOTHERS, AND zsrncmum T0 Tm: _NUMEROUS AND INTERESTING Maternal Auociations or THE UNITED STATES, THIS LITTLE VOLUME IS MOST RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED, With the hope That it may contribute TO THE Spiritual edification of Parents and Children of the Present Generation. THE COMPILER. PREFACE. Tm: wide circulation which the Mother’s Hymn Book has gained both in this country and in England, has induced the author to give it the advantages of a revision and enlargement. The work, though originally undertaken for the purpose of meeting the wants of Maternal Associations, has been adapted also to the use of private individuals and family circles. The character of the publication is peculiar; and we know of no other which can well supply its place. Many of the hymns were written by different hands expressly for the work; and in the present edition the number of original hymns has been much increased. The work is also now supplied with an appendix, embra sing a constitution for maternal associations, with hints upon the manner of establishing and conducting them. Much labor has been be stowed upon this undertaking; and that it may prove increasingly useful, is the devoutest wish of the author and publisher. 1 N0 61 INDEX OF FIRST LINES.

M. Anderson "Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation." Heb. 9:28. A most momentous event occurred in human history when the only begotten Son of God was once offered to bear the sins of many. His marvelous manifestation to redeem us will be equaled only by the supernal sunburst and ineffable splendor of His second appearing to receive us unto Himself at the climatic consummation of this age of the gospel. Christ's vicarious suffering on the middle cross gave Him the victor's garland and the monarch's diadem. It is written, "He must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet." II Cor. 15:25. Christ, the mighty Conqueror, is now seated on the mediatorial throne at the right hand of the Majesty on high, His crown radiant with the rays of the unsetting Sun of eternal revelation, and His scepter of sovereign righteousness sweeping the circumference of the whole created universe of God.

This is a work in progress and is constantly evolving. What works for the congregation I serve in will not work in every congregation. This book is not intended to teach ASL signs or grammar. It is assumed that anyone using this as a resource understands the different types of sentence structure with the accompanying NMM’s and can apply that knowledge to the gloss provided. This is intended to be a resource book; a starting place for anyone interpreting congregational hymns. Please use this as it fits your consumers; change what you need in keeping with the hymn context and meaning to best serve those in your congregation. These are NOT intended to be used for choir or any other performance as that requires a different approach. Through the process, my testimony has grown beyond measure. I truly began to understand why the Lord says a song of the righteous is a prayer. Growing up in the church, I sang these hymns at church, at home, in the car, or wherever I was. Even so, it wasn’t until I began to research and pray about them that my love for the hymns grew. As I have studied the lyrics along with the scriptures and the history of each hymn, I am in awe of the wealth of testimony and teaching we hold in our hands with the wondrous gift of music.

  • Isaac Watts - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Isaac Watts - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Isaac Watts(17 July 1674 – 25 November 1748) Isaac Watts (17 July 1674 – 25 November 1748) was an English hymnwriter, theologian and logician. A prolific and popular hymnwriter, he was recognised as the "Father of English Hymnody", credited with some 650 hymns. Many of his hymns remain in use today, and have been translated into many languages. Born in Southampton, England, in 1674, Watts was brought up in the home of a committed religious Nonconformist — his father, also Isaac Watts, had been incarcerated twice for his controversial views. At King Edward VI School (where one of the houses is now named "Watts" in his honour), Watts learned Latin, Greek and Hebrew. From an early age, Watts displayed a propensity for rhyme. Watts, unable to go to either Oxford or Cambridge on account of his non- conformity, went to the Dissenting Academy at Stoke Newington in 1690, and much of his life centred around that village, which is now part of Inner London. His education led him to the pastorate of a large independent chapel in London, where he found himself in the position of helping trainee preachers, despite his poor health. Taking work as a private tutor, Watts lived with the Nonconformist Hartopp family at Fleetwood House, on Church Street in Stoke Newington, and later in the household of their immediate neighbours Sir Thomas Abney and Lady Mary. Though a Nonconformist, Sir Thomas practised occasional conformity to the Church of England, as necessitated by his being Lord Mayor of London between 1700 and 1701.

  • Christ the Breaker - Part 1
    Christ The Breaker - Part 1 “I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob, I will surely gather the remnant of Israel. I will put them together like sheep in the fold; Like a flock in the midst of its pasture They will be noisy with men. The Breaker goes up before them; They break out, pass through the gate, and go out by it. So their king goes on before them, And the LORD at their head.” (Micah 2:12-13-note) CHRIST THE BREAKER - Have you ever heard our Lord Jesus Christ referred to as "The Breaker (Heb = happores fromp arats)?" Spurgeon said "He who has many crowns, has many titles. Jesus, the King of kings (Rev 19:16-note), has many Names, each of them fraught with meaning, and full of sweetness." The glorious Names of Jesus are like windows through which we see His attributes and character and in which we experience His power and presence, for the Name of Jehovah is forever and ever a Strong Tower for the righteous who run into it and make it their safe haven (lifted up above the fray) (Pr 18:10-note). The more we grow in the grace and knowledge of the great Names of Jesus (2Pe 3:18-note), the Name above every name (Php 2:9-note), the more we will gladly place our trust in His sufficiency to meet our every need (2Cor 9:8-John MacDuff), for as David learned through manifold trials "Those who know (experientially know, not just head knowledge but heart change) God's Name, will put their trust in Him" (Ps 9:10-note).

  • William Sears, Thief in the Night
    Thief in the Night or The Strange Case of the Missing Millennium by William Sears George Ronald Oxford, England First edition 1961 “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burnt up.” II Peter 3:10 The Problem. In the first half of the nineteenth century, there was world- wide and fervent expectation that during the 1840’s the return of Christ would take place. The story made the headlines and even reached the Congress of the United States. From China and the Middle East to Europe and America, men of conflicting ideas shared in the expectancy. Scoffers were many but the enthusiasm was tremendous, and all agreed on the time. Why? And what became of the story? Did anything happen or was it all a dream? The Solution. Patiently, and with exemplary thoroughness, William Sears set out to solve this mystery. In Thief in the Night he presents his fully detailed “conduct of the case” in an easy style which enthuses the reader with the excitement of the chase. The solution to which all the clues lead comes as a tremendous challenge. This is a mystery story with a difference: the mystery is a real one, and of vital importance to every human being. The author presents the evidence in The case of the missing millennium in such a way that you can solve it for yourself.

  • Foxe's Book of Martyrs
    FOXE'S BOOK OF MARTYRS CHAPTER I - History of Christian Martyrs to the First General Persecutions Under Nero Christ our Savior, in the Gospel of St. Matthew, hearing the confession of Simon Peter, who, first of all other, openly acknowledged Him to be the Son of God, and perceiving the secret hand of His Father therein, called him (alluding to his name) a rock, upon which rock He would build His Church so strong that the gates of hell should not prevail against it. In which words three things are to be noted: First, that Christ will have a Church in this world. Secondly, that the same Church should mightily be impugned, not only by the world, but also by the uttermost strength and powers of all hell. And, thirdly, that the same Church, notwithstanding the uttermost of the devil and all his malice, should continue. Which prophecy of Christ we see wonderfully to be verified, insomuch that the whole course of the Church to this day may seem nothing else but a verifying of the said prophecy. First, that Christ hath set up a Church, needeth no declaration. Secondly, what force of princes, kings, monarchs, governors, and rulers of this world, with their subjects, publicly and privately, with all their strength and cunning, have bent themselves against this Church! And, thirdly, how the said Church, all this notwithstanding, hath yet endured and holden its own! What storms and tempests it hath overpast, wondrous it is to behold: for the more evident declaration whereof, I have addressed this present history, to the end, first, that the wonderful works of God in His Church might appear to His glory; also that, the continuance and proceedings of the Church, from time to time, being set forth, more knowledge and experience may redound thereby, to the profit of the reader and edification of Christian faith.
