Guide me, O Thou great Redeemer, Pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but Thou art mighty; Hold me with Thy pow’rful hand;
Bread of heaven, Bread of heaven, Feed me till I want no more;
Bread of heaven, Bread of heaven, Feed me till I want no more.

Open now the crystal fountain, Whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar Lead me all my journey through;
Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer, Be Thou still my strength and shield;
Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer, Be Thou still my strength and shield.

When I tread the verge of Jordan, Bid my anxious fears subside;
Bear me through the swelling current, Land me safe on Canaan’s side;
Songs of praises, songs of praises, I will ever give to Thee;
Songs of praises, songs of praises, I will ever give to Thee.

In times of trials and tribulations, often we say ‘God will take care of you’ to our brethren in church. Thinking deeply, our Lord Jesus surely always take care all of us. He provides all our needs, devise a way out when we face difficulties and hardship. We should give thanks and praise to our Lord Jesus. Hallelujah!

For the Lord’s portion is His people; Jacob is the place of His inheritance.

He found him in a desert land and in the wasteland, a howling wilderness;

He encircled him, He instructed him, He kept him as the apple of His eye.

As an eagle stirs up its nest, Hovers over its young,

Spreading out its wings, taking them up, Carrying them on its wings.

(Deuteronomy 32:9-11)

Sound the Battle Cry! Are we all geared up for the spiritual battle? Put on the full armour of God so that we can stand firm against our enemy in the last day. With the grace and help from our might captain Lord Jesus, we will be victorious in the final battle. When this is done, eternal glorious crown we shall wear. Hallelujah, praise the Lord!

Thanks for the grace of our Lord Jesus that another piano trio is completed. Along with the similar theme of last arrangement Jesus loves me – We Rejoice with the Lord. Constantly we need to remind, examine and encourage ourselves in our spiritual journey. Do we have a joyous hearts when we pray in the Spirit? Do we have a joyous hearts when we read the Bible? Do we have a joyous hearts when we spread His perfect salvation gospel? If all these answers are Yes, we surely are bonded in His love and we are walking with the Lord. Like this joyous melody, we should rejoice and sing praises to our Lord Jesus. Hallelujah, praise the Lord!

Jesus came to reclaim our souls, and from the depths of sin and shame He lifted us. From far away in darkness, He brought us light and hope. All because of His great love and mercy. In this arrangement for Oboe and Piano, the melody kept very simple without much modification to illustrate the simple plan of God’s salvation. Hallelujah, praise the Lord!

Hallelujah, praise the Lord! Instrumental Trio arranged for Flute, Clarinet and Piano. This well known hymn tells how much Jesus loves everyone of us. When we wander far away from His mercy and grace, yet His great and wonderful love still showers upon us. The jolly, happy melody shows Jesus’ love. All of us should dance along to this delightful music.

Hallelujah, Praise the Lord! This hymn paints a beautiful description between the Lord Jesus and us in the True Church – We are joined and bound in His loving bond as one. The violin serenades this wonderful calm soothing melody, drawing us even closer to our Lord Jesus.

1 Jesus, dear Lord of grace, I am Your own!
More fair than wine is sacred cherished love;
Your name perfumes, such sweetnesses now known,
My feet will dance to music from above.

2 He spoke to me, “I long to see your face,
Fairer are you above the floral bed;
O speak to Me your softened tones of grace,
You bring delight upon My heart and head.”

3 I’m my Beloved’s just as He is mine,
Enjoined and bound in loving bond as one;
The head and body give a tender shine,
The Church in Christ— a glorious mystery.

Have you found a friend that means everything to you? Our Lord Jesus takes care of our grief and sorrows. He is our strong and mighty tower during times of temptation and trials. He promised not to leave and forsake us. Can you find such a friend in this unsettle world? Jesus is our Redeemer and true Friend!

The jolly, light and dance-like melody of this arrangement for Flute and Piano brings us hope and joy. With Jesus being our best Friend, we are so happy to dance along with this spirited melody.

The sun goes down, another draws to a close. Time for us to lay down our toil and troubles for the day. We should give thanks for His mercy, grace and love that He has shown to us daily. With our Lord Jesus’ protection and guidance, we will reach that final destination to be with Him forever. The calm, gentle and peaceful melody of the French Horn draws us closer to our Lord Jesus, meditating His constant care and wonderful love in our daily life.

The tenth article of faith of the True Jesus Church: The Lord’s Second Coming will take place on the Last Day when He descends from heaven to judge the world: the righteous will receive eternal life, while the wicked will be eternally condemned. “Jesus will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other” (Mt 24:31). What more fitting than using the trumpet to announce the second coming of our Lord Jesus for this arrangement.
