To all life Thou givest, to both great and small; In all life Thou livest, the true life of all; We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree, And wither and perish, but nought changeth Thee.

One of the songs in my heart as I awoke worshipping God this morning. It draws me to the awesomeness of God. How great is our God! And I am nothing but He loves me so much He lives in me. Glorious God.
This is my most loved hymn. I always feel the heavenly touch. Clouds and mists disappear, my whole being reverberates in acknowledgment of Yahweh the Holy One who gave me the breathe of life and saved me by Yeshua the Christ. I praise Yahweh for Dr Walter Chalmers Smith the writer for in life and in death he has been a blessing. It is indisputable that you left us a glorious legacy and one day the veil between us shall be removed and we shall see face to face in Yeshua the Christ.
Just sang this song in church for the first time in years. What wonderful lyrics even though you have to think about them as you sing them! God is so awesome. Praise the name of Jesus!

A wonderful tribute to our wonderful God.
So grateful to be His child. Because of His grace and the gift of His Son I can spend eternity with Him as all who believe and accept Him can also.

We used to sing it in the 60s. It always made me wonder about this Great God. Today it makes me cry. Thank you Google
