I stand all amazed!

Click here to see my recording on youtube: I stand all amazed!

This is my all time favorite hymn. The Atonement of Jesus Christ is what brings me hope. I will be eternally grateful for my Savior. I will never be able to repay Him for all He has done for me. 'I stand all amazed' at the love He has shown for me. 

Bruce R. McConkie, in his last talk before he died said, "I am one of His witnesses and in a coming day I shall feel the nail marks in His hands and in His feet and shall wet his feet with my tears. But I shall not know any better then than I know now that He is God's Almighty Son, that He is our Savior and Redeemer, and that salvation comes in and through His atoning blood and in no other way. God grant that all of us may walk in the light as God our Father is in the light so that, according to the promises, the blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, will cleanse us from all sin."

Thanks to Annette Goode for sending this!!

From Wikipedia: "Called to Serve" is a hymn sung in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). The words were written by Grace Gordon and the music by Adam Giebel. It is hymn number 249 in the 1985 LDS Church hymnal[1]and is also song number 174 in the Primary's Children's Songbook.
The words to the hymn reflect a desire to serve God and consequently the hymn is generally associated with missionaries and missionary work. The hymn has been translated into many languages and LDS missionaries called to foreign-speaking missions are often taught this song early in their language training.
The phrase called to serve is associated with missionary work. Letters calling church members to full-time missionary service begin with the phrase "You are hereby called to serve...."

Lyrics:
1. Called to serve Him, heav'nly King of glory,
Chosen e'er to witness for his name,
Far and wide we tell the Father's story,
Far and wide his love proclaim.
(Chorus)
Onward, ever onward, as we glory in his name;
Onward, ever onward, as we glory in his name;
Forward, pressing forward, as a triumph song we sing.
God our strength will be; press forward ever,
Called to serve our King.
2. Called to know the richness of his blessing--
Sons and daughters, children of a King--
Glad of heart, his holy name confessing,
Praises unto him we bring.
