nice rendition! would be good to use in gospel meetings. cross the separating line and let the world and it'd idle pleasures be far, far behind us!

I love this song! Thank You Lord we are made to be filled with You.

Though the World May Promise Me More

On and On

1-Little by little,
The Lord is cutting off all our natural life;
As we grow in Him,
He replaces us with more of His life divine.

	It is our destiny,
	To live a normal life
	In the divine dispensing,
	It is a blessing,
	To be satisfied with ordinary days 
	In the divine dispensing.

2-Day by day,
Our inward parts are being renewed by the Lord;
Every day,
Fresh and rich supply to us He does afford.

3-Here a little,
And there a little, Christ reveals Himself to us;
When we read His word,
We are satisfied and we enjoy Him thus.

4-Morning by morning,
Jehovah He is faithful to awaken us;
He instructs our ears,
With just a word, the weary to sustain we must.

5-From strength to strength,
We're on the highways to enter into our God;
Though Satan opposes,
We are strengthened to lay hold of more of God.

6-Grace upon grace,
The Triune God is processed for us to enjoy;
The law is over,
Now we can partake of His supply through grace.

7-From glory to glory,
We are in the process of being transformed;
Beholding, reflecting,
To God's image with all saints we'll be
conformed.

LOVE AND GOOD COMPANY

1
	My wandering days grew increasingly empty
As I searched for the way,
Just to fill this gap inside me—
Found my seeking vain.
Though all this dark earth would convince me life’s worthwhile,
Inside all my mirth
Was a cry for something real.
Don’t you lie to me, world!
  	For my heart tells me different
When I hear of contentment
Deep within a lack knew better
  Why not be honest, world.
2
	A flood of strong doubt as I heard the old story
Of a man they called Lord;
Yet my heart ne’er ceased to wonder,
Is He really Lord?
A search in His Word found my hardened heart softened,
And earth’s vanities faded.
In the brightness of His presence
Jesus came into me.
  	Now we’re always together
Growing into God’s fullness.
O Lord Jesus, how I love You!
  You brought life into me.

My Wandering Days

1. Lamb of God—our dear Redeeming One is Christ!
For our sins He paid the highest price
To redeem and to recover us
Who were lost and fallen far from God.
As the Lamb, He had no blemish;
He was meek, even submissive.
How can we like Him obedient be
Unto death, that even of the cross?

CHORUS: I want to follow Him,
Rest from all my wandering,
End all my endeavoring;
Even though I know not where or
How—I know He cares!
I know He’ll never err; I know He’ll lead me well.
I know His voice; this now my choice—
Follow where the Lamb would lead.

2. When He came, though many followed in the way,
Few remained who knew Him and His ways.
Lamb of God—He took  the narrow gate;
The constricted way to life He traced;
Sacrificed, though men denied Him;
Gave His life, though men forsook Him.
How can we t’ward Him still hardened be
When to us He gave all selflessly?

3. Lord we pray, preserve us faithful in the way
All our days, never to fall away.
By Your grace, keep us pursuing You,
Taking up the cross to follow You.
Consecrate we unreservedly,
Absolute for You entirely.
In our hearts, Lord, let the highways be
Unto Zion single-heartedly.

CHORUS 2: Now we will follow Him!
To His call we’re answering,
All we are we’re offering.
New Jerusalem we see
Come down from heav’n to earth!
God and man mingled now, our oneness we avow
Eternally, O gloriously!
This is where the Lamb would lead!

I Want To Follow Him

1. I’ve turned my back upon the world
  With all its idle pleasures,
And set my heart on better things,
  On higher, holier treasures;
No more its glitter and its glare,
  And vanity shall blind me;
I’ve crossed the separating line,
  And left the world behind me.
 	
CHORUS:
Far, far behind me!
  Far, far behind me!
I’ve crossed the separating line,
  And left the world behind me.

2. I’ve left the old sad life of sin,
  Its follies all forsaken;
My standing place is now in Christ,
  His holy vows I’ve taken;
Beneath the standard of the cross
  The world henceforth shall find me;
I’ve passed in Christ from death to life,
  And left the world behind me.
 	
CHORUS:
Far, far behind me!
  Far, far behind me!
I’ve passed in Christ from death to life,
    And left the world behind me.

3. My soul shall ne’er return again
  Back to its former station
For here alone is perfect peace,
  And rest from condemnation;
I’ve made exchange of masters now,
  The vows of glory bind me,
And once for all I’ve left the world,
  Yes, left the world behind me.

CHORUS:
Far, far behind me!
  Far, far behind me!
And once for all I’ve left the world,
    Yes, left the world behind me.

4. My choice is made forevermore,
  I want no other Savior;
I ask no purer happiness
  Than His sweet love and favor;
My heart is fixed on Jesus Christ,
  No more the world shall blind me;
I’ve crossed the Red Sea of His death,
  And left the world behind me.

CHORUS:
Far, far behind me!
  Far, far behind me!
I’ve crossed the Red Sea of His death,
  And left the world behind me.

1. I grew up hearing of You
By the hearing of the--
I grew up hearing of You
By the hearing of the ear,
But now my eye has seen you;
It’s settled, this is it:
I’ve touched reality.

2. You’ve become lovely to me,
So beautiful and--
You’ve become lovely to me,
So beautiful and sweet.
I’m seeing that One’s majesty.
I never did believe
You could win me like this.

3. I am so lovely to You,
Beautiful and--
I am so lovely to You,
Beautiful and sweet.
Though I do not know why
You fell in love with me,
How I ravished Your heart.

4. This is our story of love:
You were all alone;
I, too, needed Someone
To save me from a life
Of sin and misery
Into mutuality:
The romance divine.

The Bible states clearly and repeatedly that God created us as vessels and that He Himself wants to be our content. Just as a potter has absolute authority over the clay he shapes on his potting wheel, so God as our Potter has absolute authority over us, His creatures (see Jeremiah 18:1-6 and Romans 9:20-23).

When we believe in Christ Jesus, He comes into our human spirit and fills us with Himself. According to 2 Corinthians 4:7, Christ in us is the “treasure in earthen vessels,” and Romans 9:23 says that we are “vessels of mercy.”

We are vessels of mercy not because we sought God or because we are better or try harder than others; we are vessels of mercy because God loved us and chose us, even before the foundation of the world. Romans 9:16 says, “It is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.”

Now, we may be “vessels unto honor” by pursuing Christ with other believers (2 Timothy 2:20-22). May we all pursue Christ to be filled with Him!

The lyrics for this song were taken from ministry materials for a conference on the Old Testament book of Jeremiah given in June 2020.
