Product Description
This composition, a hymn of praise to my heroines from the Old and New Testament, is particularly special to me. I am especially fond of the lyrics:
Make me, Lord, like Abigail,
That I may calm the hearts of the embittered and with love prevail.
Make me as the prophetess,
That I may be as Anna and to all the world Thy name confess.
Give me, Lord, a mother's heart
Like Pharaoh's daughter may I feel compassion and my love impart.
Hear, oh Lord, a mother's plea,
Like Hagar in my wilderness may angels find and rescue me.
As Rebekah I will go,
I'll trust Thy word and will despite uncertainties and great unknowns.
As the widows I shall be,
When meal and mites and oil run low I'll consecrate my all to Thee.
Like the women at the cross,
I'll stand by Thee and ne'er retreat though I may feel that all is lost.
And as Mary Magdalene
I'll find Thee, Jesus - certain of the Living Savior I shall be.
