C. He Keeps Me Steady In His Love. He holdeth me up, and I shall not be moved,

There is no wavering or shaking when we are in His hands.

D. He Is The Strength Of A Christian. He giveth me strength as my day.

III. THIRD STANZA

With numberless blessings each moment He crowns,

And filled with His fullness divine,

I sing in my rapture, O Glory to God

For such a Redeemer as mine!

A. Bountiful Blessings Are Announced. With numberless blessings each moment He crowns,

It’s very likely that we aren’t even aware of all the blessings He gives us. We always equate our desires and blessings with material or earthly surroundings, while the Lord is dealing with us in heavenly matters. Therefore often times we do not recognize what He is doing for us.

B. The Fullness Of His Power Is Felt. And filled with His fullness divine,

C. The Overflowing Of His Glory Is Expressed. I sing in my rapture, O Glory to God

D. He Is A Personal Redeemer. For such a Redeemer as mine!

He is not just the Redeemer of the world, He is my redeemer. He purchased my salvation. He died on the cross for me.

IV. FOURTH STANZA

When clothed in His brightness, transported, I rise

To meet Him in clouds of the sky,

His perfect salvation, His wonderful love,

I’ll shout with the millions on high.

A. The Changing Into His Likeness. When clothed in His brightness, transported, I rise

1Co 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. (KJV)

We will be changed from that sinful and corruptible body.

When this moment happens then we shall begin to experience what John was telling us in Rev. 4.

Re 4:1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.

2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.

3 And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.

4 And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.

5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God. (KJV)

B. The Jubilation Of Meeting Him In The Air. To meet Him in clouds of the sky

1Th 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
