Here is a truly great song setting forth the riches of our inheritance in CHRIST.
1. Prayer. "Unto thee, 0 Lord, do I lift up my soul."
2. Trust. "I trust in thee."
3. Instruction. "Teach me."
4. Guidance. "Lead me."
5. Communion. "On thee do I wait all the day."
6. Obedience. "Unto such as keep."
7. Illumination. "He will shew them his covenant."
8. Preservation. "He shall pluck my feet out of the net."
9. Forgiveness. "Forgive all my sins."
10. Protection. "0 keep my soul."
The missionaries to the Fiji Islands were threatened with destruction by the enraged natives, and had no means of defence except prayer. Their enemies heard them praying, and became fearful, and fled. The reason was given by one of them: "They found you were praying to your GOD, and they know your GOD is a strong GOD; and they are gone."
