My Heart was Blessed Greatly by this Hymn I just Listened to:
According to Thy Gracious Word
According to Thy gracious word,
In meek humility,
This will I do, my dying Lord,
I will remember Thee.
Thy body, broken for my sake,
My bread from Heaven shall be;
The testamental cup I take,
And thus remember Thee.
Gethsemane can I forget?
Or there Thy conflict see,
Thine agony, and bloody sweat,
And not remember Thee?
When to the cross I turn mine eyes,
And rest on Calvary,
O Lamb of God, my sacrifice,
I must remember Thee;
Remember Thee, and all Thy pains
And all Thy love to me;
Yea, while a breath, a pulse remains,
Will I remember Thee.
And when these failing lips grow dumb
And mind and memory flee,
When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come,
Jesus, remember me.
Now Now unto the King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible, the Only Wise God,
Be Honour and Glory Forver and Ever. Amen. (1Tim.1:17)

Morning
You have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
How can we who died to sin still live in it?I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.He died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised.Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.
We are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ.Just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us.Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.Because I live, you also will live.
To the one who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, with a new name written on the stone that no one knows except the one who receives it.

Thou hidden source of calm repose,
Thou all sufficient love divine,
My help and refuge from my foes,
Secure I am if Thou art mine;
And lo! from sin and grief and shame
I hide me, Jesus, in Thy Name.
Thy mighty Name salvation is,
And keeps my happy soul above;
Comfort it brings, and power and peace,
And joy and everlasting love;
To me with Thy dear Name are given
Pardon and holiness and Heaven.
Jesus, my all in all Thou art,
My rest in toil, my ease in pain,
The healing of my broken heart,
In war my peace, in loss my gain,
My smile beneath the tyrants frown,
In shame my glory and my crown.
In want my plentiful supply,
In weakness my almighty power,
In bonds my perfect liberty,
My light in Satans darkest hour,
In grief my joy unspeakable,
My life in death, my Heaven in hell.
—Charles Wesley
