Sunday Hymns – No Other Plea

Here is a song we sang last Sunday. This hymn reminds us that it is the Lord Jesus Christ we trust in, the words of our confessions and creeds are referring to someone who really exists.

No Other Plea
Words by Lidie H. Edmunds & music by Andre Gretry

1. My faith has found a resting-place,
Not in device or creed;
I trust the Ever-living One;
His wounds for me shall plead.

Chorus:
I need no other argument,
I need no other plea;
It is enough that Jesus died,
And that He died for me.

2. Enough for me that Jesus saves,
This ends my fear and doubt;
A sinful soul I come to Him,
He’ll never cast me out.

Chorus

3. My heart is leaning on the Word,
The written Word of God,
Salvation by my Saviour’s name,
Salvation thro’ His blood.

Chorus

4. My great Physician heals the sick,
The lost He came to save;
For me His precious blood He shed,
For me His life He gave.

Chorus

Sunday Hymns – Onward Christian Soldiers

Last Sunday we sang “Onward Christian Soldiers.” This hymn fits with the biblical teaching of the Christian life as a war.

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; and for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.” (Ephesians 6:10-20)

“Onward, Christian Soldiers”
Words by Sabine S. Baring-Gould & music by Arthur S. Sullivan

1. Onward, Christian soldiers,
marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
going on before!
Christ, the royal Master,
leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
see his banner go!

Chorus:
Onward, Christian soldiers,
marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
going on before!

2. At the sign of triumph
Satan’s host doth flee;
On, then, Christian soldiers,
on to victory!
Hell’s foundations quiver
at the shout of praise;
Brothers, lift your voices,
loud your anthems raise!

Chorus

3. Like a mighty army
moves the church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
where the saints have trod;
We are not divided;
all one body we,
One in hope and doctrine,
one in charity.

Chorus

4. Onward, then, ye people,
join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices
in the triumph song;
Glory, laud, and honor,
unto Christ the King;
This through countless ages
men and angels sing.

Chorus

Listen to “God, The Master Builder” (Apologetics for Kids) by “Grandma” Joelee

Listen to this children’s Bible Audios – Stories for Kids by “Grandma” Joelee – “God, The Master Builder”.

Listen to it on Children’s Bible Audios-Stories for Kids

In this apologetics audio, she gives arguments for the existence of God that a 4-5 year old can understand. She gibes the arguments from beginning of the universe (Cosmological), its design (Teleological), and continuance (Contingency). Of course, she doesn’t use the big words! It is connected to the gospel, as are all her audios.

This is part of her Apologetics for Kids series.

This and her other audios are on SermonAudio and many other podcast sites including iTunes Google Podcasts and Stitcher

This is the first audio she made over 15 years ago. Originally it was for her grandson. Now she has 97 audios that have been listened to in every state and over 100 countries around the world.

These can just be listened to or used for homeschooling or other formal instruction.
