Sweet. John 3:16. SM Lockridge

Thank you for compiling and posting these classic Haven of Rest Hymns. I still remember distinctly how I discovered their broadcast when i was 17 years old in the Philippines. We had a black out that night. I had nothing to do then but to turn on our battery operated transistor radio and "channel surfed". I chanced upon the voice of Ray Orland speaking, then he introduced The Haven of Rest. Their barber shop quartet style, singing a classic hymn was new and sounded very attractive to me. Little did I know, this would be the start of my early Christian walk. I was a "baby Christian" then and I was looking for a way to be led to the Lord much deeper. Ray Ortlund, The Haven of Rest Quartet and the messages from the program became a big part of my Christian growth. I still have some of their original recordings in cassette! This touched a part of me that can only be described as predestined. Thanks once again.

Can I have a CD copy of this heavenly album?

This song has blessed my heart tremendously.

Thanks for posting these. I wish these recordings were available on DV or MP3.

You ask me why I'm happy so I'll just tell you why, Because my sins are gone; And when I meet the scoffers who ask me where they are, I say, "My sins are gone." CHORUS: They're underneath the blood on the cross of Calvary, As far removed as darkness is from dawn; In the sea of God's forgetfulness, that's good enough for me, Praise God, my sins are gone! 'Twas at the old-time altar where God came in my heart, And now my sins are gone; The Lord took full possession, the devil did depart, I'm glad my sins are gone! CHORUS: When Satan comes to tempt me and tries to make me doubt, I say, "My sins are gone, You got me into trouble but Jesus got me out." I'm glad my sins are gone! CHORUS: I'm living now for Jesus, I'm happy night and day, Because my sins are gone; My soul is filled with music, with all my heart I say, "I know my sins are gone!"

One of my "go to" songs when I get discouraged.

As I reflect on the hymn "Abide in me," my heart is deeply stirred by the profound simplicity and earnest plea woven through its verses. This hymn has become a personal prayer, a cry from the depths of my soul, longing for the presence of my Lord to fill every crevice of my life. The words, "Abide in me, oh my Lord, you promised in your holy word," echo the promise Jesus Himself made in John 15:4, reminding me that my life, devoid of His presence, is like a branch cut off from the vine-lifeless and fruitless. The world around us often feels overwhelmingly empty and lost, a sentiment the hymn captures so poignantly. Yet, in the midst of this, it offers a beacon of hope-the invitation to let Christ make His home in our hearts, guiding us with His eternal light. This isn't just a passive wish but a call to action, a decision to open our lives wide to His transformative power and guidance. "My life I throw open wide. Won't you come and make your home inside?" These words challenge me to surrender all, to seek His guidance and light in every decision, acknowledging that without Him, I am utterly lost. To my fellow believers, I share this reflection not as mere words but as a testament to the life-changing truth it holds. Let us together invite the Lord to abide in us, to fill us with His presence, to guide our steps, and to illuminate our paths. May we embrace the cross, ready to follow wherever He leads, with hearts open to His teaching and correction. For in abiding in Him, we find true life, purpose, and the strength to face each day. Let this hymn not just be a song we sing, but a lived reality, as we daily choose to abide in Him and let His word richly dwell in us.

THE BEST QUARTET EVER.

THANKS FOR POSTING THIS. I AM TRULY BLESSED.

Brings back wonderful memories of waking up at Grandma’s house the summer I was 11. Three weeks hearing 8 bells.

Just beautiful! Amen! Come Lord Jesus, come!

Great music- never knew this album to a group I have been following over 30 years! Shame on me😄

Fantastic Harmony to enhance the wonderful truth of Jesus coming at anytime on any day. Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus!!!!

Does anyone know where I can find the music to the song? I have a vast collection of music and hymnals but can't seem to find it.

The beautiful godly blend of voices ✝️👑🙂🎶

We used to sing it as a christian family at church, years ago. We are still a christian family because we belong Jesus. Thanks for sharing this beautiful hymn. Greetings from Punta del Este, Uruguay.

This is my dad's favorite group!! I remember this playing in our house many times!! Precious memories!!!

A classic...glad I found this song.

Love the sound of sacred quartet music, and these brothers were blessed!! Thanks

Anyone remember a song with the lyrics about all creatures great and small. I heard it twice back in the 90s when listening to the radio program with Ray Ortlund. I never heard it ever after those 2 times. I loved it, and, can't find it. ???

🙌🏼PRAISE JESUS 🙌🏼🙌🏼 Worthy is the Lamb 🙌🏼

I appreciate this song more than ever. Being bought by Jesus blood has more meaning than ever to me now.

Out in the highways and byways of life, Many are weary and sad; Carry the sunshine where darkness is rife, Making the sorrowing glad. Make me a blessing, make me a blessing, Out of my life may Jesus shine; Make me a blessing, O Savior, I pray, Make me a blessing to someone today. 2 Tell the sweet story of Christ and His love, Tell of His pow’r to forgive; Others will trust Him if only you prove True, every moment you live. 3 Give as ’twas given to you in your need, Love as the Master loved you; Be to the helpless a helper indeed, Unto your mission be true.

Such beautiful harmonies! Truths for today...Lord make me a blessing! God bless!🙏

Anyone know where to find “Sail On” 1987/1988 by Haven Quartet?

Modern churches would think this too boring. These hymns are to spiritual for the average modern christian. Great hymn.!

Can't believe I found this wonderful channel. Thank you. 💕🎶

Praise the Lord .....

Love by all in the world

Amen bless the name of the Lord

Thanks for posting this. I’ve loved them and their exquisite harmonies since discovering them on a radio station that I could barely pick up that I’d listen to late at night. This was in my mid-teens back in the early 80s. I got practically every recording they made until sometime in the 2000s and still have and treasure that music. I liked their sound/ arrangements back in the era when this recording was made. I liked the feel that the accompanist (Ron something? 🙂) gave their sound compared to the guy who took over after him who seemed to have tried to make them sound more “cool”, though some great recordings were made then too. The lovely chord progressions they do with their vocals at 1:06 and 2:27 have been favorites for decades. They were masterful.

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Reminds me of the tape I played for my sons when they were toddlers! Thank you!

Lovely. A beautiful reminder of God's grace and also my dads record collection of the 1960s.

Heavenly. Thank you for posting.

How often do we cry, "Lord, bless me!" We sing, "Shine on me". When the Spirit of Christ would prompt us to pray, Lord make me a blessing, shine OUT of me into the lives of others. Matthew 20:28 "The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve others, and to give His life a ransom for many.” The Dead Sea is dead because it has no outflow. A light bulb only illuminates when the power flows through it. Break the circuit and darkness is the result. The nation of Israel wanted to be a terminus of God's blessings, not a channel. When the widow ran out of vessels, the miracle of oil ceased. 1 Out in the highways and byways of life, Many are weary and sad; Carry the sunshine where darkness is rife, Making the sorrowing glad. Refrain: Make me a blessing, Make me a blessing. Out of my life may Jesus shine; Make me a blessing, O Savior, I pray. Make me a blessing to someone today. 2 Tell the sweet story of Christ and his love, Tell of his pow'r to forgive; Others will trust him if only you prove True, ev'ry moment you live. [Refrain] 3 Give as 'twas given to you in your need, Love as the Master loved you; Be to the helpless a helper indeed, Unto your mission be true. [Refrain]

1 In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me; Lest by base denial, I depart from Thee. When Thou seest me waver, With a look recall, Nor for fear or favor Suffer me to fall. 2 With forbidden pleasures Would this vain world charm, Or its sordid treasures Spread to work me harm; Bring to my remembrance Sad Gethsemane, Or, in darker semblance, Cross-crowned Calvary. 3 Should Thy mercy send me Sorrow, toil, and woe, Or should pain attend me On my path below, Grant that I may never Fail Thy hand to see; Grant that I may ever Cast my care on Thee. 4 When my last hour cometh, Fraught with strife and pain, When my dust returneth To the dust again, On Thy truth relying, Through that mortal strife: Jesus, take me, dying, To eternal life. Amen.

I grew up listening to this record…my mom’s favorite.
