The line, "Thou my great Father and I Thy true son," means a great deal to me because my own father left my family when I was 2 and I haven't seen him for years. It is comforting to me to know that I have a Father who calls me His own and will never forsake me. I love Jesus
this song has touched my heart since the fist time i heard it on saturday. god is good and has given me three chances at walking with him. i am so grateful that he is so good. thank you lord
@dan4ETERNALPATH I never understood the meaning of the hymns at school, not until born again when I found the gift of singing/Worship, was granted...that same night!
Hey guys, I'm 12 and I'm gonna sing this song in front of my whole church, and it's a beautiful song and it's kind of nerve tracking cuz the girl next to me is really good:/ ant suggestions??
@ponandziify If you are thinking about how well you are singing, it's not honoring to God. It's not about a beautiful melody. But if you think about the lyrics you are singing, and sing with your heart, that is honoring to God. And what people will most enjoy is when you show them how to enjoy God and look to Him. He is much more enjoyable than a nice melody, and seeing the heart of a young person turned wholely to God is a great delight.
@ponandziify Here's what I do before and during performances: I work hard. Then, just before and sometimes during the performance, I remind myself of the following: that I have worked hard; God is in control; whatever happens, He gets the glory; and then I perform for His glory.
@SomeGuy859 . Surrender totally to God. Daily get up early to pray, read a verse and meditate about how it applies to you. Do a good deed to someone daily. Serve in your church. Serving others will connect you to God, helping your times alone with Him.
@thecindylorraine In the original Authorised Version, Isaiah 59, it says 'when the enemy comes in like a flood, the spirit of the Lord raises a standard against him'. This is true, and it's experience that grows confidence (=faith in the mercy of Jesus), so when you're having a hard time, remember it' s because you must be doing something right !
"Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, still be my vision oh ruler of all..."
I've been having a tough time in the 18 months or so since I got baptised, but time and time again just as I think I can't take anymore, the Lord does something to alleviate the problem. I feel so ungrateful when I am never content with what he gives me, but I'm doing my best. I don't know what the other side of these troubles is going to look like, but I know he will be with me there too- so it has to be beautiful!
Thank you very much. Always a most wonderful song of praise and appreciation for the most precious heart of Jesus and His vision, our Light in this world. Amen Lord
It's strange the Protestants sing this song, when it contains many Catholic doctrines, in both the Old Irish version and even in the popular translation.
Old Irish: "With the King of all, with him after victory won BY PIETY" - Salvation by works.
Popular Translation: "My victory won, May I reach heaven's joy" - Purgatory (notice the man is not in the Church Militant, since he has won victory, yet is not yet in heaven).
@ginsumaster 1 Timothy 3:4 - "He must manage his own household well, with all dignity keeping his children submissive." (ESV)
Titus 2:7-8 - "Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity and sound speech that cannot be condemned, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us."
Admittedly this is different to what many consider dignity, never the less there is Biblical precedent for the lyric
@ginsumaster I don't understand how I am attacking you, you asked for anywhere in the Bible where God cares about Dignity, I provided two... I said nothing about you
@Insaneplanetman Please excuse my earlier comment. I assumed you were making a personal attack on me, when in fact this was not true.
Yes, we as Christians should have a standard of behavior -- honestly, integrity, truth, "dignity", etc. However, what Robin Mark's lyrics state is "Be Thou my DIGNITY, Thou my delight" -- which is quite different..
Jesus is our righteousness, our holy sacrifice, etc. However, "dignity" is not an attribute I can find in the Bible that we spiritually inherit.
@ginsumaster No worries dude, all I'm saying is that Dignity isn't an anti Biblical concept, it may be a kinda obscure thing to mention, but its not un-biblical, considering everything that is not sin comes from Christ. So I don't think there's a problem mentioning it.
Robin Mark purposely changes the lyrics of this timeless hymn and makes it: theologycally incorrect. Let us compare the official CCLI lyrics with Mark's version:
Vss 5, 1:47:
1a. breastplate --> battle-shield Hmm, Ephesians 6 talks of the "breastplate of righteousness" and the "shield of faith" The two are TOTALLY DIFFERENT.
@evanray57 My goodness, it's evanray again. You like Irish music too? I recall one of your last messages to me was about when you can't sleep, & you're worried about atheists coming thru your bedroom window, you just pretend Jesus is by your side, in bed with you, holding your hand, comforting you, whispering in your ear, laying his big strong masculine hands on you, stroking, exploring, faster & faster, until suddenly, something explodes, & you feel all messy & guilt-ridden.
THANK YOU! we are using this track for our dad's funeral. he died at 93 and was in the milatary for 22 years. This is soo perfect it makes me cry thank you so much
It's awesome to finally find a version that still sings verse three - most artists seem to omit it for some unknown reason.
The call for God to be our strength in the face of attack is for me the strongest part of this song; by singing it, we are asking God to protect us, to command us, to fight for us and if necessary to cover our retreat.
Where God's banner flies, there will never be total defeat; we know that the ultimate victory will be his!
I completely agree with you. He is our strength in the times when we need him the most. One of the most improtant parts of the song. I to was looking for the 3rd verse because your right other artist ommit it. Sad It is.
@Booshman By verse 5, you are speaking of "battle-shield", right? I ask because as compared to the official CCLI lyrics Robin Mark changes the order of verses and some words.
In his version the verses are: 1, 2, 5, 3, 4, 1.
Some word changes he does:
vs 5: breastplate --> battle-shield
"Thou my whole armor, Thou my true might" --> "Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight"
@Booshman Whereas the lyrics convey very important truths, they don't fit well with the melody like the other verses. It's very forced. I think that's why many musicians skip that verse.
I love this song, I used to sing it with my old youth group before the youth leaders moved. It's such a beautiful song ^^ seldom get to hear it nowadays.
Maranatha loosely translated means "Lord come!" the New Testament writters us it when speaking of Jesus Christ's second coming. So it may be translated "Come Lord Jesus Christ!"
