Felisol..Do You Like This Song?



this is one of my favourite southern gospel hymns.
the lord jesus deserves all of our praises for dying on the cross for us, taking our place and his blood washes us from all of our sins.

Dear Terry,
This hymn was unknown to me.
It was beautifully performed, but with four voices the lyrics wasn't easy to get hold of.
I googled and found the most wonderful lyrics.
Have a blessed Sunday, you and your family.
From Felisol

Bethlehem, Calvary, Olivet, tell,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
Mountain and plain with His praises shall swell,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!

Refrain

Oh, what a Savior!
Oh, what a Savior!
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
Unto the uttermost, wonderful, glorious!
Oh, what a Savior is mine!

There, on the cross, where He died for my sin,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
Giving His life a poor wand’rer to win,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!

Refrain

Rising again in His infinite grace,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
Shedding upon me the light of His face,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!

Refrain

Lifting my burdens, relieving my care,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!
Giving me courage to do and to dare,
Oh, what a Savior is mine!

oh aren't they both just lovely felisol.
here are the lyrics to the song the cathedrals sing..

Once I was straying in sin's dark valley,
No hope within could I see,
I searched Thru heaven and found a Savior, To save a poor lost soul like me

Chorus

Oh what a Savior! Oh Hallelujah
His heart was broken on Calvary,
HIs hands we nail scared: His side was driven,
He gave his life blood for you and me


He left the Father, with all his riches,
WIth calmess sweet and serene,
Came down from heaven and gave his life blood
To make the vilest sinner clean.

Chorus

Death's chilly waters I'll soon be crossing,
His hands will lead me safe o're
I'll join the chirus in that great city,
And sing up there for ever more

oh we are so blessed felisol!
won't it be so grand that we will all be singing this saviour's praises together in heaven!

oh why felisol were we ever chosen is beyond me..

"Why was I made to hear his voice
And enter while there's room,
While others make a wretched choice
And rather starve than come?
'Twas the same love that spread the feast
That sweetly drew me in;
Else I had still refused to taste
And perish in my sin.'' by r.l. dabney

love terry

Dear Terry,
So, I'm doubled blessed on a Sunday morning.
Else it is my firm belief that Christ died for all of us, Dad Golden and me the same.
I am double blessed that I may walk with Jesus and place my burdens, shortcomings and sorrows upon him. My life on earth is easier because I can "put my hands in the hand of the Man who calmed the water."
I will meet Dad Golden in heaven, I know for sure. God will never stop calling and caring for him.
I just wish my prayerchild could have the blessings of walking with the Lord now as well.
From Felisol

miss patty do you remember how rosey roselle used to boom out this song and did you see how bill gaither had him sing it on one of his gaither and friends videos?
he sang it, though weak in body, strong in voice.
a little while after this, he was singing it right in the lord's prescence in heaven...
