[hometext] => If ever Christ should call my name
[bodytext] => If ever Christ should call my name, and appear to me, as some maintain; I know for certain what I would do, before this earthly life is through. I know, I would His will obey, believe His word in every way. I'd also love Him much, much more; though tribulation cut me sore. I'd gladly travel 'cross the sea, if that's where He'd have me be - defend the faith, evil wrath endure, when of His will, I would be sure. What's this arrogance, I profess? Ah.... just proud boasting to excess. Is not His Holy word a sure command? It slips by me like wind blown sand. Oh woe is me of little faith, so oft, His Holy word forsake. I'll make no more claims I can't keep, Did not Christ liken us as sheep? 1 Cor. 1:26 thru 29 " For ye see your calling brethren, how that not many wise men, after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things to confound the mighty and base things that are not, to bring to nought the things that are: that no flesh should glory in His presence.
