It failed and they went back to England.They realized that they were missing the joy that all the other Jesus followers had around them. And they remembered that they had never asked Jesus to come into their hearts so they did just that. On the 11th anniversary of their new relationship with Jesus, Charles wrote this hymn. It has been sung in thousands of churches worldwide and was remade into a contemporary Christian song by the Crowder band.<\/p>\n<p>For me it takes me back to a time when I was a child, standing in front\u00a0of the pew, holding my own hymnbook and singing with all my heart. \u00a0I just knew if I sang loud enough that God could hear me. \u00a0I remember thinking that at least 1,000 people were in that sanctuary singing His praises. Chills went over my arms as I sang for Him and about Him.<\/p>\n<p>I still love singing my great Redeemer&#8217;s praise and, yes, it never gets old. \u00a0He still sets captives free and breaks the power of sin. \u00a0His blood still cleanses the dirtiest sins and hearts rejoice as He is King. \u00a0He loves to hear us sing to Him and about Him. \u00a0And I am sure He has heard this very song sung in many languages. \u00a0So today is His Day&#8212;the Sabbath. \u00a0You may be singing this very song with a hymnal or maybe it is up on screens for all to see. \u00a0You may be worshipping with hands up in the air or maybe in quiet reverence. You see&#8230;that part doesn&#8217;t really matter to Him. \u00a0He just loves to hear His children&#8217;s voices in unison, singing to one God as one body. \u00a0 He hears all and smiles.<\/p>\n<p>Have a great Sunday! \u00a0Rejoice and sing His praises all day long!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\"> *\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0~ \u00a0 \u2665 \u00a0 ~\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u271e\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0~ \u00a0\u2665 \u00a0 ~ \u00a0 *<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dear Lord, we do want to sing Your praises all day long and we are so grateful that we are free to do so. \u00a0This hymn is so beautiful and we are reminded of all You have done to set us free. \u00a0And for all those today that are still in bondage, we pray for freedom and forgiveness.
