We see Jesus,
who was made a little lower than the angels
for the suffering of death,
crowned with glory and honour.
Hebrews 2:9
We continue to send our monthly mailing with the simple desire that the material sent would be a help and encouragement to all.

The Old-Fashioned Meeting
By Herbert Buffum
1
Oh, how well I remember in the old-fashioned days,
When some
old-fashioned people had some old-fashioned ways;
In the
old-fashioned meetings as they tarried there,
In the
old-fashioned manner, how God answered their pray'r.
Chorus:
'Twas
and old-fashioned meeting, in an old-fashioned place,
Where some
old-fashioned people had some old-fashioned grace:
As an
old-fashioned sinner I began to pray,
And God heard me, and
saved me in the old-fashioned way.
2
There was singing, much singing, of those old-fashioned airs!
There
was power, such power in those old-fashioned pray'rs,
An
old-fashioned conviction made the sinner pray,
And the Lord
heard and saved Him, in the old-fashioned way.
Chorus:
'Twas
and old-fashioned meeting, in an old-fashioned place,
Where some
old-fashioned people had some old-fashioned grace:
As an
old-fashioned sinner I began to pray,
And God heard me, and
saved me in the old-fashioned way.
3
Well, they say it is better, "Things have changed, don't you
know,"
And the people in gen'ral, seem to think it is
so;
And they call me old-fashioned when I dare to say,
That
I like it far better in the old-fashioned way.
Chorus:
'Twas
and old-fashioned meeting, in an old-fashioned place,
Where some
old-fashioned people had some old-fashioned grace:
As an
old-fashioned sinner I began to pray,
And God heard me, and
saved me in the old-fashioned way.
4
If the Lord never changes, as the fashions of men,
If He's
always the same, why, He is old-fashioned, then!
As an
old-fashioned sinner saved thro' old-time grace,
Oh, I'm sure He
will take me to an old-fashioned place.
Chorus:
'Twas
and old-fashioned meeting, in an old-fashioned place,
Where some
old-fashioned people had some old-fashioned grace:
As an
old-fashioned sinner I began to pray,
And God heard me, and
saved me in the old-fashioned way.
