New Hymns

Be Still and Know that I Am God

The text of this original hymn was written by Pastor Russ as he was preparing a sermon on Psalm 46. He gave the words to Tom to see if he could set them to music. At first Tom thought of making a grand, stately tune, but it just didn't seem to fit. Finally he came up with a melody that sounded somewhat like a lullaby. Russ assured him that this was fitting since the title of Psalm 46 says, "A Song upon Alamoth." 'Alamoth' means 'lilies'. Many scholars think that this might mean that it was to be sung by women or soprano voices. The Psalmist tells us that in the midst of horrendous catastrophes, we can be still and know that Jehovah is God.

O Depth of God

This hymn was composed by Andrew Boone and was inspired by Romans 11:33-36, “O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor? Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again? For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.”
