“Though swordless, these soldiers of Christ fought the might of imperial Rome and won…
Unlettered they unblushingly declared the whole counsel of God and eventually staggered the intellectual Greeks.”
– Leonard Ravenhill from his book Meat for Men

The greatest audience is not a packed auditorium (humans)
but
the “Audience” of the Triune God – The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

DON’T FORGET TO SING

Take your stand with words stout and strong
Against perceived and actual wrong
Blast the watch-trumpet loud and long
But don’t forget to sing.
Write your booklet or your tract
Marshall every “fact-let” and fact
Be both punctual and exact
But don’t forget to sing.
There’s no harm in a firm stand
In pronouncements precise, yet grand
In having a rather heavy hand
If you still, with luster, sing.
Much good has come from vocal prose
Backing not though nose to nose
By opposing all narrow-way foes
But don’t forget to sing.
Chorus
Sing of God’s salvation full and free,
Sing of Pentecost without gold or fee,
Sing “once though blind, now I see.”
Saints ought oft to sing!
Sing of grace to meet each trial,
Sing of love in the hardest mile,
Sing of Heaven’s up-coming smile.
Sing! God’s holy people sing!
