This recording is a collection of extracts from the other Charles Spurgeon recording on “Christ’s Connection with Sinners the Source of His Glory.”

The sacrifice of praise
Indispensable necessity
The splendor of His holiness
Abound in, filled with righteousness
To enthrone
Chosen, precious
O Lord, resting place, arise
To be forever glorified
Undying worship, continued offering
Christ above all, wisdom exalting
O Lord, a resting place
Our God, to be forever glorified

–Living Sacrifice, “Enthroned ’98”–

Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy.
–Psalm 126:5 (NKJV)–
