القرار
ألقي حملي على يسوع لأنه يهتم بي

1- يا تُرى أيُّ صديقٍ
مثلُ فادينا الحبيبْ
يحملُ الآثامَ عنا
وكذا الهمَّ المذيبْ
يا لإِنعامٍ تسامى
مِن لدُنْ ربِّ النجاهْ
إننا نلقي عليهِ
كلَّ حِملٍ بالصلاهْ

2- كم لقِينا من كروبٍ
واكتئاباتٍ الحياهْ
حيث لم نُلقِ عليهِ
كلَّ حملٍ بالصلاهْ
إنْ تجاريبٌ وضيقٌ
مثلَ أمواجِ المياهْ
لاطمتنا ورمتنا
فعلينا بالصلاهْ

3- هل صديقٌ كيسوع
قادرٌ بَرٌّ أمينْ
ورقيقُ القلبِ يرثي
لبلاءِ المؤمنينْ
فإذا كنا غُلِبنا
من جرى حملِ الهمومْ
فلْنُصَلى ليسوع
نجدِ النصرَ العظيمْ

Because his life was filled with grief and trials, Scriven often needed the solace of the Lord as described in his famous hymn. Educated at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland, he enrolled in a military college to prepare for an army career. However, poor health forced him to give up that ambition. Soon after came a second blow—his fiancée died in a drowning accident on the eve of their wedding in 1844. Later that year he moved to Ontario, where he taught school in Woodstock and Brantford. His plans for marriage were dashed again when his new bride-to-be di… Go to person page >
