“The King of Glory comes the nation rejoices; Open the gates before him
lift up your voices. Who is this King of Glory how shall we call him? He is Emmanuel the promise of ages.”
The Chorus is one I fondly recall
from attendance at Mass during my primary school days in Fatima Elementary
School. (Our Lady of Fatima Elementary and High school was a premiere learning
institution in Harper Cape Palmas, Maryland County, Liberia West Africa.) The
song is one of my current favorites for “humming-along” singing devotion. My
friend, are you lifting up your voice in praise to the King of Glory? Is Jesus
on your mind throughout the day, notwithstanding the busy business of everyday
life? Do you make time to check in with the Lord—PRAY to God—in the Name of
Jesus Christ? Have you set yourself aside as living sacrifice to the Lord? Can
Almighty God count on you to exercise Godly restraint in your thoughts, words, deed,
actions and reactions? Are you content knowing that God shall supply all your
needs according to HIS riches in Glory? Do you trust Almighty God enough that
you can say, “Yes, Yes Lord” at the end of each day?
“The
King of Glory comes the nation rejoices; Open the gates before him lift up your
voices. Who is this King of Glory how shall we call him? He is Emmanuel the
promise of ages.”
My prayer for you and I is that
we would continually lift our voices in praise and say “I say Yes Lord. Yes I
will worship you with my time. Yes I will make you first in all I do. Yes you
are worthy, O Lord God. Yes to your perfect will. Yes to your glorious handling
of my circumstances. Yes I give my life to you.”
“The
King of Glory comes the nation rejoices; Open the gates before him lift up your
voices. Who is this King of Glory how shall we call him? He is Emmanuel the
promise of ages.”
Enjoy a wonderful weekend. Make
each moment memorable! Make it about Jesus. Do it for Christ.
Blessings and peace,
Servant Hortense Grimes
