We're ready to receive the spirit when
they were filled with love of God. When
tteir eyes were fastened on Jesus the
spirit could descend upon them.
AT the conclusion of his address DR..
Sherman read the following lines, en-
tit /: Himself Hath Done It."
Once it was the blessing,
Now il is the Lord
Once it was the feeling,
Now it is His word.
Once His gifts | wanted,
Now Himself alone;
Once | sought for healing,
Now the healer own.
Once twas painful trying,
Now tbs perfect trust
Once half salvation,
Now to the uttermOSt:
Once twas ceaSeleSS holding,
Now He holds me fast;
Once twas constant drifting,
Now my anchors cast.
Once twas busy planning,
Now tbs trustful prayer;
Once twas anxious caring,
Now He has the care;
Once twas what | wanted,
Now what Jesus says;
Once twas constant asking,
Now 'tiS ceaSelesS praise.
Once it was my working,
His it hence shall be;
Once | tried to use Him,
Now He uses me;
Once the power / wanted,
Now the mighty one;
Once | worked for glory,
Now His will alone.
Once hoped in Jesus,
Now / know He's mine;
Once my lamps were dying,
Now they brightly SHINE;
Once for death | waited,
Now His coming hail,
And my hopes are anchored
Safe within the vail.
