Praising God While We Can
Psalm 63:4-7
Thus will I bless you while I live: I will lift up my hands in your name.…


I went one day with Billy Bray, says the Rev. F.W. Bourne, to see a dying saint whose character had been unblemished for many years, but whose natural disposition was modest and retiring almost to a fault. His face wore a look of ineffable dignity and repose, lit up with a strange unearthly radiance and glory. He was just on the verge of heaven. He could only speak in a whisper. He said, "I wish I had a voice, so that I might praise the Lord." "You should have praised Him, my brother, when you had one," was Billy's quiet but slightly satirical comment.
