On dark days when the only song
we feel like singing is a dirge, we can pray,
"Let the music of thy promises be on my tongue"
(Psalm 119:172).
(Psalm 119:172).
The promises of God will lift me right out of sad sentimentality
and put music in my mouth if I will think steadily on them.
Let the promise be the song you sing.
He will hear it and make it true for you.
-- Elisabeth Elliot

Hello my friends. I guess you've figured out by now that I have a thing for the old hymns. With good reason!! I have a few more to share with you today and want to also share a couple of sites with you about hymns.
Have you ever heard of cyberhymnal? This is a fantastic site that has thousands of hymns listed and searchable in various forms. You can find a little history on the hymn, read the lyrics, and hear the tune if you choose.

I am gathering free pintable hymns on one of my pinterest boards. There does not seem to be a lot available. So.... I'll try to regularly add some from my collection of old hymnbooks.

THANK YOU so much for visiting here today. Your comments warm my heart and are a great encouragement to me to keep persevering.

ReplyDeleteAbby, I too LOVE old hymns. I am sure you knew that already though. :) So sweet of you to offer printables and a link to my challenge. I will link your pinterest board in my next posting. I am sure many would love to have access to your printables. Thanks for the work you put into this! Blessing to you sweet friend!
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful hymn site - I will check that out. I love reading your blog - always uplifting. Abby, for another blessing, pop on over to A Gathering Place blog. Rebecca's post today is the perfect example of how good God is! Always love to visit you and Rebecca. A great start to my day.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love this old quilt background on your blog!
ReplyDeleteI love using hymns in my crafting -- thanks so much for hunting for them and making them available to us! So sweet of you to share!
ReplyDeleteI have never used a hymn in a layout, but, you have inspired me to do so here. Thanks for these printables! I also loved searching for my oldest favorite hymns--I am 68 this month--in the cyber link! Thanks, too, for that!
ReplyDeleteThese hymns are so cool! I am going to print them out and take them to my mom's house. She has stacks of hymnal books. She and I used to sing together at church all of the time, and were involved in at least two choirs when I was a young one. Singing with my mom is one of the fondest memories I have from childhood.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing! ♥
encouraging post and blog...im following now..God bless you friend...
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear Abbey,for these beautiful hymns. God bless.
