Devotional Guide This Week (April 6-11)

James 1:2-3 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.

1) What wondrous love is this, O my soul, O my soul,

what wondrous love is this, O my soul!
What wondrous love is this that caused the Lord of bliss
to bear the dreadful curse for my soul, for my soul;

to bear the dreadful curse for my soul!

2) To God and to the Lamb, I will sing, I will sing,

to God and to the Lamb, I will sing;
to God and to the Lamb, who is the great I AM,
while millions join the theme, I will sing, I will sing,

while millions join the theme, I will sing!

3) And when from death I’m free, I’ll sing on, I’ll sing on,

and when from death I’m free, I’ll sing on;

and when from death I’m free, I’ll sing and joyful be,
and through eternity I’ll sing on, I’ll sing on,

and through eternity I’ll sing on!

1) Jesus, keep me near the cross, There a precious fountain;
Free to all, a healing stream, Flows from Calv’ry’s mountain.

Refrain:
In the cross, in the cross, Be my glory ever,
Till my raptured soul shall find Rest beyond the river.

2) Near the cross, a trembling soul, Love and mercy found me;
There the Bright and Morning Star, Shed His beams around me. [Refrain]

3) Near the cross! O lamb of God, Bring its scenes before me;
Help me walk from day to day, With its shadow o’er me. [Refrain]

4) Near the cross! I’ll watch and wait, Hoping, trusting ever;
Till I reach the golden strand
