Thanks for joining us on
Your Favorites By Request.
00:00:01.36\00:00:03.77
We've been singing some
maybe obscure songs to you,
00:00:03.80\00:00:08.10
some that you're
not familiar with.
00:00:08.14\00:00:09.74
I'm certainly not familiar
with some of these hymns
00:00:09.77\00:00:13.04
that are some older hymns.
00:00:13.07\00:00:14.58
But it's a delight to get,
00:00:14.61\00:00:16.04
to get into the hymnal
00:00:16.08\00:00:17.68
and really find
out some new melodies.
00:00:17.71\00:00:20.78
And the lyrics are
wonderful, lyrics as always.
00:00:20.82\00:00:24.29
In Romans 8:35,
Paul reminds us that
00:00:24.32\00:00:27.46
nothing in the universe
has the power to diminish
00:00:27.49\00:00:30.89
God's love toward us.
00:00:30.93\00:00:33.36
Troubles, pressures,
problems, they're unable to come
00:00:33.40\00:00:37.17
between us and heaven's love.
00:00:37.20\00:00:39.43
And not even persecution,
deprivation, danger,
00:00:39.47\00:00:43.41
or death threats
00:00:43.44\00:00:44.81
can hinder the
omnipotent love of Christ.
00:00:44.84\00:00:48.44
I have a good
friend, Ellen in Oregon,
00:00:48.48\00:00:51.78
who requested this song,
00:00:51.81\00:00:53.72
O, love that will not let me go.
00:00:53.75\00:00:56.25
O, Love that will not let me go
00:01:08.76\00:01:14.54
I rest my weary soul in thee
00:01:14.57\00:01:20.38
I give thee back the life I owe
00:01:20.41\00:01:26.41
That in thine
ocean depths Its flow
00:01:26.45\00:01:31.35
May richer, fuller be
00:01:31.39\00:01:37.76
O, Light that
follow'st All my way
00:01:41.43\00:01:47.34
I yield my
flick'ring torch To thee
00:01:47.37\00:01:53.64
My heart
restores Its borrowed ray
00:01:53.68\00:01:59.65
That in thy
sunshine's blaze Its day
00:01:59.68\00:02:04.75
May brighter, fairer be
00:02:04.79\00:02:09.69
O, Cross That's
liftest up my head
00:02:45.49\00:02:51.87
I dare not ask to fly from thee
00:02:51.90\00:02:57.97
I lay in dust life's glory dead
00:02:58.01\00:03:04.05
And from the ground
00:03:04.08\00:03:07.28
There blossoms red
00:03:07.32\00:03:09.68
That life that shall endless be
00:03:09.72\00:03:16.02
Beautiful song.
00:03:26.03\00:03:28.47
Ellen, I hope you
enjoyed that song.
00:03:28.50\00:03:31.04
From Dell in
Monterey, Tennessee,
00:03:31.07\00:03:33.54
back in my area
comes a request for a song
00:03:33.58\00:03:36.68
with beautiful lyrics.
00:03:36.71\00:03:38.21
It's another
obscure song in my opinion,
00:03:38.25\00:03:40.75
but it gives a progressive look
at the maturity of our prayers
00:03:40.78\00:03:45.15
as we ultimately learn
our greatest need is to love.
00:03:45.19\00:03:50.19
This song enforces
the importance of singing
00:03:50.23\00:03:53.56
all of the verses
00:03:53.60\00:03:55.00
something that
many of you request,
00:03:55.03\00:03:57.37
no matter what
the song they say.
00:03:57.40\00:03:59.10
We want to hear all the verses.
00:03:59.13\00:04:00.84
So be sure and follow
along because this is a great...
00:04:00.87\00:04:04.61
The idea is a wonderful idea
00:04:04.64\00:04:06.88
when you follow
from verse 1 through 5.
00:04:06.91\00:04:09.58
It goes like this.
00:04:09.61\00:04:10.95
At first I prayed for light
00:04:29.00\00:04:32.97
Could I but see the way
00:04:33.00\00:04:37.21
How gladly, swiftly would
00:04:37.24\00:04:40.84
I walk To everlasting day
00:04:40.88\00:04:47.48
And next I prayed for strength
00:04:47.52\00:04:51.69
That I might tread the road
00:04:51.72\00:04:55.96
With firm,
unfalt'ring feet, And win
00:04:55.99\00:05:00.96
The heav'n's serene abode
00:05:01.00\00:05:06.80
And then I prayed for faith
00:05:06.84\00:05:11.17
Could I but trust my God
00:05:11.21\00:05:15.24
I'd live enfolded in His peace
00:05:15.28\00:05:20.42
Though foes were all abroad
00:05:20.45\00:05:26.29
But now I pray for love
00:05:26.32\00:05:30.63
Deep love to God and man
00:05:30.66\00:05:35.23
A living love That will not fail
00:05:35.26\00:05:40.17
However dark His plan
00:05:40.20\00:05:44.87
Listen to this.
00:05:44.91\00:05:46.54
And light and strength And faith
00:05:46.57\00:05:50.95
Are opening everywhere
00:05:50.98\00:05:54.95
God waited patiently until
00:05:54.98\00:06:00.19
I prayed the larger prayer
00:06:00.22\00:06:05.13
Isn't that neat?
00:06:08.50\00:06:09.90
That's really cool.
00:06:09.93\00:06:11.40
It's my prayer that your life
00:06:11.43\00:06:13.54
would be full of the
power of Christ's love,
00:06:13.57\00:06:16.24
so that you can make a
difference in this world
00:06:16.27\00:06:18.77
and bring honor to Him.
00:06:18.81\00:06:20.81
Remember, the
most important thing
00:06:20.84\00:06:23.35
is to love God
and to love others.
00:06:23.38\00:06:25.78
I want to send out this
song to Eva in Inman, Kansas
00:06:25.81\00:06:29.65
who requested In a
Little While We're Going Home.
00:06:29.68\00:06:32.85
Eva lives out
there in the Midwest,
00:06:32.89\00:06:35.29
close to where I
was born and raised.
00:06:35.32\00:06:37.33
I was in Missouri,
00:06:37.36\00:06:39.69
so we're right
next-door neighbors.
00:06:39.73\00:06:41.90
Missouri and Kansas are.
00:06:41.93\00:06:43.26
I don't know where Inman
is, but I'm sure it's close.
00:06:43.30\00:06:45.33
So hope you enjoy
00:06:45.37\00:06:47.04
In a Little
While We're Going Home.
00:06:47.07\00:06:48.40
Sing along now.
00:06:55.08\00:06:57.65
Let us sing a song
00:06:57.68\00:06:59.98
That will cheer us by the way
00:07:00.02\00:07:02.35
In a little
while We're going home
00:07:02.38\00:07:06.69
For the night will end
00:07:06.72\00:07:09.16
In the everlasting day
00:07:09.19\00:07:11.53
In a little
while We're going home
00:07:11.56\00:07:15.96
In a little
while, In a little while
00:07:16.00\00:07:20.50
We shall cross The billow's foam
00:07:20.54\00:07:25.07
We shall meet at last
00:07:25.11\00:07:27.34
When the stormy winds are past
00:07:27.38\00:07:30.75
In a little
while We're going home
00:07:30.78\00:07:35.22
And we will do the work
00:07:35.25\00:07:37.62
That our hands will find to do
00:07:37.65\00:07:39.95
In a little
while We're going home
00:07:39.99\00:07:44.39
And the grace of God
00:07:44.43\00:07:46.76
Will our daily strength renew
00:07:46.80\00:07:49.06
In a little
while We're going home
00:07:49.10\00:07:53.37
In a little
while, In a little while
00:07:53.40\00:07:58.07
We shall cross The billow's foam
00:07:58.11\00:08:02.58
We shall meet at last
00:08:02.61\00:08:04.95
When the stormy winds are past
00:08:04.98\00:08:08.35
In a little
while We're going home
00:08:08.38\00:08:11.89
You sing it now.
00:08:11.92\00:08:13.25
Oh, in a little while
00:08:30.37\00:08:32.87
In a little while
00:08:32.91\00:08:35.11
We shall cross The billow's foam
00:08:35.14\00:08:39.65
We shall meet at last
00:08:39.68\00:08:41.82
When the stormy winds are past
00:08:41.85\00:08:45.25
In a little
while We're going home
00:08:45.29\00:08:49.52
And let's do the last verse.
00:08:49.56\00:08:51.96
There's a rest beyond
00:08:51.99\00:08:54.26
There's relief from every care
00:08:54.30\00:08:56.56
In a little
while We're going home
00:08:56.60\00:09:00.90
And no tears shall fall
00:09:00.94\00:09:03.20
In that city bright and fair
00:09:03.24\00:09:05.34
In a little
while We're going home
00:09:05.37\00:09:09.58
Oh, in a little while
00:09:09.61\00:09:12.05
In a little while
00:09:12.08\00:09:14.25
We shall cross The billow's foam
00:09:14.28\00:09:18.69
We shall meet at last
00:09:18.72\00:09:20.99
When the stormy winds are past
00:09:21.02\00:09:24.56
In a little
while We're going home
00:09:24.59\00:09:29.60
In a little
while We're going home
00:09:29.63\00:09:34.34
I love that song.
00:09:38.17\00:09:39.51
That's a fun song.
00:09:39.54\00:09:41.11
And a good thought
00:09:41.14\00:09:42.48
in little while
we are going home.
00:09:42.51\00:09:44.15
I can't wait.
00:09:44.18\00:09:45.75
So a lot of the requests
that we're doing are songs
00:09:45.78\00:09:51.25
that have been requested
from quite a while back.
00:09:51.29\00:09:54.82
But just this morning,
00:09:54.86\00:09:56.52
I received a beautiful
request from this song,
00:09:56.56\00:10:00.80
and I think you'll recognize it.
00:10:00.83\00:10:03.80
And there's the third verse.
00:12:19.43\00:12:22.30
I'd stay in the garden
00:12:22.34\00:12:26.17
With Him
00:12:26.21\00:12:29.88
Though the night around me
00:12:29.91\00:12:34.02
is falling
00:12:34.05\00:12:37.42
But He bids me go
00:12:37.45\00:12:42.02
Through the voice of woe
00:12:42.06\00:12:46.46
His voice to me
00:12:46.49\00:12:50.77
Is calling
00:12:50.80\00:12:55.87
And He walks with me
00:12:55.90\00:13:01.34
And He talks with me
00:13:01.38\00:13:06.15
And He tells me
00:13:06.18\00:13:09.38
I am His own
00:13:09.42\00:13:14.82
And the joy we share
00:13:14.86\00:13:19.73
As we tarry there
00:13:19.76\00:13:26.00
None other has ever known
00:13:26.03\00:13:31.27
None other...
00:13:34.48\00:13:35.88
Thanks for
watching and come back
00:13:40.75\00:13:42.18
with more requests next time.
00:13:42.22\00:13:44.09
