A
Methodist preacher by the name of Luther
Bridges, was born in
1884, he married Sarah Veatch and three
lovely sons were born of their union.
Pastor Bridges accepted an invitation to
minister at a conference in Kentucky in
the year 1910, so he left his family in
the care of his
father-in-law and made the trip to
Kentucky. There, two wonderful weeks of
ministry resulted. The last service
closed with great joy and he was excited
to be called to the telephone. He
couldn't wait to tell his wife about all
the blessings.
But it wasn't her voice on that long
distance line. He listened in silence to
the news that a fire had burned down the
house of his father-in-law and his wife
and all three of his sons had died in
the blaze. That distraught father leaned
heavily on His Savior and expressed his
faith in God during a tearful moment by
penning these words:
There's within my heart a melody
Jesus whispers sweet and low,
Fear not, I am with thee, peace,
be still, In all of lifes ebb and flow.
All my life was wrecked by sin and
strife,
Discord filled my heart with pain,
Jesus swept across the broken strings,
Stirred the slumbering chords again.
Feasting on the riches of His grace,
Resting beneath His sheltering wing,
Always looking on His smiling face,
That is why I shout and sing.
Though sometimes He leads through waters
deep,
Trials fall across the way,
Though sometimes the path seems rough
and steep,
See His footprints all the way.
Soon He's coming back to welcome me,
Far beyond the starry sky;
I shall wing my flight to worlds
unknown,
I shall reign with Him on high.
Chorus: Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Sweetest
Name I know,
Fills my every longing, Keeps me singing
as I go.
