Hymns are magnificent, because they help us focus on that which is of most worth to us. As we listen to the melodies, we think of the inspired words of each hymn. They help us do our best each as we strive to do our part to help those around us.

The order of the hymn selections in this book has a deliberate order. As we look at the beauty of this earth, our souls are stilled. We have imperfections, but we strive to be nearer to God. By doing so, we stand amazed and ask God to abide with us. We need Him and His light in our lives, because He gives us more holiness. We hear His voice and come to Him because He loves us and we are His.
