The book of Genesis offers us so many vast topics from which to choose a theme hymn. As we are starting at the very beginning, I would like to give praise to our Creator of heaven and earth in singing
Hymn 320 – Lord of Creation and
Hymn 2 – All Creatures of Our God and King. The stories that follow creation will lean back towards our amazing God and what He has done for each of us in creation.
Sabbath afternoon’s introduction to our week of study brings back to us our previous studies during this quarter, reiterating the great patriarchs of Genesis prior to Joseph:
Hymn 11 – The God of Abraham Praise and
Hymn 645 – God of Our Fathers. Sunday continues looking back to Isaac who “was only a ‘stranger’ “:
Hymn 445 – I’m But a Stranger Here.
On following the example of Joseph (Monday) all will be well with our fellowmen if we ask
O For a Heart to Praise My God – Hymn 323 and
Hymn 639 – A Diligent and Grateful Heart.
The outcome for Judah and Tamar (Tuesday) shows God’s Amazing Grace – Hymn 108 and Hymn 109 – Marvelous Grace.
Wednesday shares the story of Joseph as a servant/slave in Egypt showing his trust in God. Today we are able to be a servant for our God: Hymn 256 – Ye Servants of God and Hymn 597 – Ye Servants of The Lord. “The Lord acts, and it has an impact on Joseph’s relationship with the officer of the prison. Here, too, as in his master’s house, the Lord blesses”: Hymn 195 – Showers of Blessings.
The dreams continue on Thursday, this time for the butler, the baker and Pharoah. We can request dreams in
Hymn 47 – God, Who Made the Earth and Heaven (verse 1) or not request as in
Hymn 266 – Spirit of God. One of the most beautiful aspects of our dreams is to be
Nearer My God, to Thee – Hymn 473 (verse 2). At the end of Thursday, Joseph could be found singing
I Sing the Mighty Power of God – Hymn 88.
God’s abundant blessings this quarter as we study through the first book of the Bible which our gracious God has given. May we be faithful and all say “Come, Lord Jesus, come – very soon” so we are able to go to our new home in Heaven, as
We Have This Hope – Hymn 214.
To learn unknown hymns, you will find the accompaniment music for each one at: https://sdahymnals.com/Hymnal/
Another great resource is for when there is a hymn you wish to sing, but can’t find it in your hymnal. Go to https://www.sdahymnal.org and in the search bar type a special word in that is in the hymn. I am sure you will be amazed at the help you will be given.
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV – “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
