Faith of our fathers, living still

This hymn touches my heart, it speaks of our earthly fathers, in the name of our heavenly Father and declares that we all will be true to Thee till death! Amen!!!

This hymn was on my heart this morning as I woke. Not only am I blessed by meditating on the lyrics, but my heart is really blessed by reading the comments of my brothers and sisters in the Lord all over the world. Despite differences of nationality, race, and denomination, we are all part of that cloud of witnesses. I praise God for each and every one of you

This song is evergreen, with a strong potential to ignite the fire of true faith. I pray to leave behind this kind of faith for the generations coming after me.

This song would not leave my mind this morning, so I looked up the words... and they blessed me. And even more so when I saw how many people have had the same experience. Thank You Holy Spirit!!!

This hymn always sends a message t my very person, I just reflect on every line and every word used.

It reflects on how very lazy many of have become, just bearing the title 'Christian'. A title that wasn't easily acquired. The Apostles lived nd died, protecting it, the most unimaginable way you could think of. But how do we treat it today? It will really hurt them to see how "Christians" live their lives today.

May God forgive us and grant us grace to do HIS will always.

This song is soul uplifting

Thanks to God for the writer of this hymn. It is a great blessing. It causes tears to well up in my eyes as it calls us to rededicate our lives to the faith our fathers of faith lived, preached and died for. It reminds us that the Christian faith we have today did not come on a platter of sweet comfort, but through sweat and swords as many of those who propagated the Word of God were persecuted and slaughtered. With this understanding, we must like the Apostles of old yield our lives to "contend earnestly for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints" (Jude 3). In our modern world of breath taking technology, many no longer see it necessary to maintain the pure and unsullied message of God's word forgetting that the truth of God's word doesn't change, but must be preached, believed and practiced as it is. To us the words of the hymns calls to change and follow the faith of our fathers on the narrow path which leads to Heaven.

I grew up in Liverpool UK and remember singing this hymn frequently both at school and in Church. I always found it both rousinf and uplifting. I don't hear it at all these days. Unfortunately!

We sang this when I was a child. How we need to be reminded TODAY!!!

AMEN!!!

Great hymn that always bring me to understanding that price was paid for me to live and serve God ❤️❤️❤️😭😭
