In the Sweet Fear of Jesus

As we begin a new day and new week, our theme song for this quarter in Sunday School seems to be most appropriate.

"In the sweet fear of Jesus
Let me begin each day,
Fearful lest I should grieve Him,
Fearful lest I should stray,
Fearful lest earthly longings
Ever my heart should share,
Taking the throne of Jesus
Placing an idol there.

"In the sweet fear of Jesus
Let me begin each day,
Serving or resting, always
Under His gentle sway;
All that I say, directed,
All that I plan conceived,
With the remembrance present
Jesus must not be grieved."
