BLACK, Paitor Jackson & Fellowship Presbyterian Churches Great hymns of faith have a way of drawing Christians to gether. As we listen reverently to soloist or choir, and as we lift our own voices to sing God’s praise at home or with the con gregation, we feel ourselves be ing drawn out of our own pre occupations into a fellowship which transcends the old dividing lines of race and nation and de nomination. One hymn which has such uni ersal drawing power that it is sung every Sunday by many churches is the “Doxology” by Thomas Ken. Probably you know its words and tune by heart: “Praise God, from whom all blessings flow. Praise Him, all creatures here below. Praise Him abo\e, ye heavenly host. Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.” In this Doxology we praise the God who created us and who daily blesses the life he has given. We acknowledge that his great | ness exceeds our undertanding, that much of the life of God is shrouded in mystery which we can only guess at in terms of heaven and heavenly host. But praise God, He has revealed him self to us sufficiently as a loving Father, a personal Saviour, and a life sustaining Spirit. The historical setting from which this Doxology comes is the turbulent Reformation period in 17th century England. Its author was Rev. Thomas Ken, a man short of stature but tall in courage, personal integrity, and faith. Once when the ruling monarch, Charles 11, brought his soldiers and camp followers to Winches ter, to visit the palace he was building there, the king decided to lodge his mistress in the home of the preacher. Thomas Ken re fused to take her. It is said that Ken put his house in charge of a builder for repairs and imme diately had the roof taken off.. For such courage Ken was event ually removed from his bishopric and thrown into prison. Before his imprisonment Ken served as professor and chaplain at the Winchester school for boys. As an aid to their devotions Ken wrote three hymns, one for morning—“Awake, My Soul;” one for evening—“All Praise to Thee my God this night;” and one for midnight. All three songs ended with the final stanza which Christians around the world now sing as the doxology: “Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Praise Him, all creatures here below. Praise Him above, ye heavenly host. Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.” CARD OF THANKS Many, many thanks to every body for their prayers, visits, cards, books, flowers, food, phone calls, and their time since 1 broke my leg.—Dale Rosser. The said Deed contains a power of sale authorizing the Grantee as Attorney-in-fact for Grantor therein to sell the property con veyed thereby in order to satisfy said Note, as well as subsequent advances. after advertising the same once a week for four (4) weeks in the official gazette of said County of Butts, and in ac cordance with said Power of sale and, by virtue thereof, NEWTON FEDERAL S A VINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION will sell the property described above at public outcry to the highest bid der for cash, on the first Tues day in December 19(59, before the Butts County Courthouse Door, the place of Public Sales in Jack son, Butts County, Georgia, and within and during the legal hours of sale.
