When times of trouble come my way,
When darkness never turns to day,
God’s love will guide my soul to say,
“It’s time to be remembering.”
When times of stress besiege my way,
When pain and strife both come to stay,
God’s love will guide my soul to say,
“It’s time to be remembering.”
When trials storm upon my way,
When living right seems not to pay,
God’s love will guide my soul to say,
“It’s time to be remembering.”
Chorus
Remembering Your love is best,
Remembering Your love brings rest,
Remembering that I am Thine,
How great the blessings, Lord, are mine!
M. Robbins
This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD. Lam 3:21-26
....As a general principle, if we would exercise our memories more wisely, we might, in our very darkest distress, strike a match which would instantaneously kindle the lamp of comfort. There is no need for God to create a new thing upon the earth in order to restore believers to joy; if they would prayerfully rake the ashes of the past, they would find light for the present; and if they would turn to the book of truth and the throne of grace, their candle would soon shine as aforetime. Be it ours to remember the loving-kindnesses of the Lord, and to rehearse His deeds of grace. Let us open the volume of recollection which is so richly illuminated with memorials of mercy, and we shall soon be happy..... C. H. Spurgeon
