2: The Crucibles That Come – Singing with Inspiration
Having scanned through the lesson quarterly, there are so many hymns from which to choose a theme. In effect, there is a commencing theme hymn that changes through the quarter to the finale theme hymn. To start with, we could use:
Hymn 552 – The Lord’s My Shepherd or
Hymn 545 – Savior, Like a Shepherd.
Somewhere in the middle of the quarter one could change the theme and add in
Hymn 159 – On a Hill Far Away which is where we complete our studies in Lesson 13.
Sunday encourages us to request:
Hymn 315 – O For a Closer Walk With God,
Hymn 554 – O Let Me Walk With Thee,
Hymn 574 – O Master, Let Me Walk With Thee,
Hymn 624 – I Want Jesus to Walk With Me.
The outstanding statement at the end of Monday, “Christ’s victory is our victory” is found in
Hymn 608 – Faith is the Victory and
When We All Get to Heaven – Hymn 633 “We’ll sing and shout the victory!”.
Our refining (Wednesday) comes in many ways:
Hymn 263 – Fire of God Thou Sacred Flame (verse 1) and
Hymn 509 – How Firm a Foundation (verse 4).
