This hymn, by (Mrs) Manie P. Ferguson (1850-1932), of Ireland and later Los Angeles, appears at No. 699 in the Redemption Hymnal of 1952, and I first heard it as a student when attending a Pentecostal church in Manchester. I almost decided against recording it, on the ground that some of the words almost verge on sentimentality. But then I thought of John Bunyan's marvellous poem, uttered by Christian at the foot of the Cross, when his burden falls away -
"... Blest cross! blest sepulchre! blest rather be
The Man that there was put to shame for me."
and then I thought, if it was good enough for Bunyan, it's good enough for me. Truly "God shows his love for us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us", Romans 5.8; and I hope I never lose that sense of gratitude.
