      Its the Comforter that led you here sir... Its one of the promises that the Lord Jesus gave us the Holy Spirit to guide us and continue to lead us to remember what we have been taught and received since that day... Still the Blood of Jesus that brings victory to me, to you sir, to all of us which received Him whom gave He power to become the sons of God...You'll get to see your wife sooner that we know... Let me be the first one or one of many to shake her hand for holding fast the name of our Lord and Saviour , and His Majesty Jesus Christ The King... "Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might" I will see you in the assembly area, sir!!!

I cannot wait for the good Lord to call me home one day and embrace my son again. This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. Thank you for this beautiful, reassuring hymn!!❤

I am 12 month post diagnosis of stage 4 brain cancer. It has been quite a year with surgery, radiation and lots of chemotherapy treatments. But I am still here praising and thanking God for every day, longing for His soon return. God bless as you continue to be a blessing and bringing hope to so many of us. Thank you.

    In the moment he appears
    And the light from Heaven shines
    I’ll forget every fear
    Every pain I’ll leave behind
    Then I’ll see Him as He is
    And I’ll know Him as I’m Known
    Every tear wiped away
    When I go home
    Ever present is the thought
    That a moment waits for me
    When, unworthy as I am,
    His glory I will see
    I will empty all my praise
    Before my Father’s throne
    Every tear wiped away
    When I go home
    If the trial I endure,
    And Your presence I can’t find
    Be near me Lord I pray
    Bring back unto my mind
    That your promises are firm
    And I’m never on my own
    Every tear wiped away

    I have been meditating on that phrase in the song, “ I will empty of my praise before my Father’s throne”
    At first, I thought it was wrong. The praises of God’s people will go on and on, like a stream forever flowing.
    Then it struck me… How can I hold back any praise to Him who loved me and gave Himself for me….HE deserves ALL my praise.
    Then I thought of something that set my mind at rest.… Just when I think I have emptied my reservoir of praise, God will refill it moment by moment through the ages!

    Hola, soy de Chile y no hable inglés, no obstante, las alabanzas las conozco casi todas, en mi idioma. Pero igual me gozo en el Señor por saber que la alabanza del pueblo de Dios no tiene fronteras territoriales no idiomáticas y menos de razas. Sueño con el día que juntos, de todas las naciones, alabemos en la eternidad al Cordero de Dios, nuestro Señor Jesucristo.

    Michael, thank you for this hymn. We sang it in worship this morning. I had never heard it, before. Many of us had not. It is quite rare that a hymn marries melody and harmony and lyrics so beautifully. It left our congregation speechless, as a hush - a holy hush - swept over us.
    Thank you for this blessing.

    Brother Michael, I praise God for this hymn. As I ponder the words, my heart's desire is that I may be true to Christ, to love Him with all of my heart that I may be with Him forever. Oh the much He has done and is willing to do, to conform us to His image that we may be partakers of His kingdom of glory.

    I sent this song to my aunt 2 weeks before she passed. She was in the last stages of bulbar ALS. It took away her ability to speak, walk, eat, and even support her own head and move at all. Before ALS, she was an incredible alto singer and hymns brought her comfort til the very end. She loved this one particularly and had visitors that came to their home listen to it. I'm thankful for the comfort it gave her and continues to give me. I know now she is 'emptying all her praise before our Father's throne."

    I heard about this channel when a girl from choir sent a link for “Sing To Me of Heaven” for a new song to learn, and we have all since been hooked! I found this song while just playing through a playlist while sewing, and listened to this over and over that night and it has been such a blessing to me the past several weeks!! I’ve probably listened to it 100 times. Also, very neat to learn you wrote it, and the sheet music was very helpful as I transpose it for a trio to sing at my church. Thank you!!! My favorite is verse 2 and the line, “I will empty all my praise, before my Father’s Throne!” Wow! I can’t wait.
