Welcome quote

Welcome!

"These hymns have brought cheer in the day of trial; comfort in the time of bereavement; encouragement to live a life of greater devotion to Christ; rebuke to our coldness and oft backslidings; stimulus to enter and continue in sacrificial service for our blessed Lord and Master; and inspiration and guidance in our adoring worship and praise to the Father, through the Son, and in the power of the Holy Spirit!"
- Alfred Gibbs (from 'Hymns: Their Use and Abuse')

All Power is given unto Me - Go ye into all the world


(First line: Far, far away in heathen darkness dwelling)


Ja-uh, ja-uh, kegelapan selubung,
Berjuta nyawa hilang s’lamanya,
Siapa, siapa? Yang akan menginjili,
Lihat pada Jesus, tak berkira.

“S’mua kuasa diberi Aku;
S’mua kuasa diberi Aku;
Pergilah s’luruh dunia b’ritakan injil,
Aku bersama mu s’lalu.”

Lihat dunia, pintu terbuka luas:
Prajurit Christ, bangkit dan masuklah;
Christian, bangun! 
Gabungkan ku-asamu,
Hantar Injil, putus rantai dosa.

M’ngapa mati? 
Suara Tuhan memanggil,
M’ngapa mati? ulang s’kali lagi;
Jesus mati, s’lamatkan dari maut;
Hidup dan kes’lamatan - isytihar!

Tuhan cepatkan hari semua bangsa,
‘Mulia Tuhan’ akan dinyanyikan;
Yang ditebus, girang dalam selamat,
Jerit Hallelujah, Lord lah Tuhan!
