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')

And can it be


(First line: And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Saviour's blood)


Dan bolehkah aku  mendapat
Minat dalam darah Jurus’lamat ku?
Mati ‘tuk ku yang menyakiti Nya?
Untuk ku Di-a masuk maut;
Kasih hebat! Be-n-arkah ya-ng
Engk-au Tuh-an mat-i untuk ku?

Dia tinggalkan Takhta Bapa mulia,
Kas-ih k-urnia tidak terhingga,
Rendahkan Diri, tumpahkan darah;
Dan mati unt-uk bangsa Adam;
Kasih-ampun! Pe-n-uh  su-ngg-uh:
O Tu-han k-u  menju-mpai ku!

Lama sudah ku di-belenggu,
Dala-m d-osa dan kegelapan;
Mata Mu be-ri Terang Hidup,
Penjar-a menyal-a dengan terang;
Rantai putus! H-ati  be-b-as!
Ak-u bang-un, dan me-ngikut Mu!
