“ King Asa - What a shame!!! ”
In listening to these sermons on King Asa I was led to write a hymn about it. This is certainly not of professional standard but it states some truths about God and some sad facts about king Asa:
A HYMN BASED ON
THE LIFE OF KING ASA
TO THE TUNE: BUCKLAND - 77 77
ASA CRIED IN PRAYER TO THEE
WE OUR GOD IN PRAYER WILL FLEE
KNOWING GOD WAS HIS DELIGHT
SEEKING GOD WITH ALL HIS MIGHT
NOTHING IS TO BIG FOR THEE
GOD OF HEAVEN, EARTH AND SEA
ASA’S LORD WAS HIS TRUE GOD
RESTING ON HIS NAME HE TROD
ASA SINNED AGAINST THE LORD
TRUSTED MEN AND NOT HIS GOD
NO PRAYER TO GOD HE DID MAKE
NOT TO GOD FOR SICKNESS SAKE
WE SHOULD LEARN FROM HIS DEMISE
HOW ALWAYS ON OUR GOD RELY
PRAYER ALWAYS THE RIGHT TRUE WAY
KNOW YOUR FATHER GOD IS WISE.
SO WE GO IN THY GREAT NAME
JESUS, IS THE NAME WE KNOW
FORWARD, INTO BATTLE GO
SEEING GOD AND NOT THE FOE
WE HIS PEOPLE KNOW HIS POWER
SEEING ALL, AND KNOWING MORE
GOD, OUR GOD, WILL USE HIS STRENGTH
FOR HIS PEOPLE, FOR THE HOUR. |
