Tune & Hymn: Amazing Grace

Hosea 1 v.6-9 and 2 v.1 parts

*******

Hosea speaks, Restoration

Shall be to the nation

People of Israel shall be

Numbered as sand's grains, see

 

It shall come to pass in the place

Where 'twas said to the race

Of Israel, you are not my

People, not to me nigh

 

There it shall be said, My people

You are, even you all

The people of the living God

Which on this land have trod

 

For once you were named Lo-ammi

'Not my people' you be

But now you are named Ammi, for

You are my people sure

 

And once were named Lo-ruhamah

I put you from me far

'No mercy' to you I would show

So troubles, grief you know

 

But now you are named Ruhamah

For to you my desire

Has rekindled, mercy I shall

Have on you, do you well

      Thanks N. You know any Ammi's and Ruhamah's?
      KP gives me Lo-Ruhamah - No mercy, that is. No mercy in me saving any money. She has most of it for botox! lol.
