TODAY'S TOP STORY:
Schumer says Senate will hold vote on Equal Rights Amendment this week
|
|
|
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said on Monday that the Senate will hold a vote on the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) this week.
“In this ominous hour of American history, the Equal Rights Amendment has never been as necessary and urgent as it is today,” Schumer said in a statement.
The New York Democrat pointed to the Supreme Court’s decision last year overturning Roe v. Wade, as well as the current legal battle over the common abortion pill mifepristone, for the new vote on the ERA.
“Recent events like the Supreme Court’s horrible Dobbs decision, uncertainty with critical care drugs like Mifepristone, and a slew of proposed state actions have women in this country facing an uncertain future,” he said.
Fifty-two senators have signed onto the bill, including Republican Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), who introduced the legislation alongside Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.), and Susan Collins (R-Maine).
However, the inclusion of the ERA in the Constitution faces several barriers beyond a vote in Congress, including legal questions of whether Congress has the authority to remove the original deadline on the amendment’s ratification and whether states can rescind their ratification.
Five states — Idaho, Kentucky, Nebraska, Tennessee and South Dakota — have voted to rescind their ratification of the ERA. (The Hill) Read more

- Father God, we say NO to the out-of-hand passage of the Equal Rights Amendment!
NO!
Lord God, Chuck Schumer may think that he is god, and that he can twist our laws to serve His purposes, but he cannot! We call forth a groundswell of opposition to this measure, so that this vote will not take place in the Senate. We decree this in Your Name, amen and amen!

TOP STORY 2:
Top Republican Subpoenas FBI Official Over Refusal to Answer Questions
|
|
|
U.S. House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) subpoenaed a top FBI official on April 24 after he said she refused to answer questions.
Jordan subpoenaed Jennifer Leigh Moore, the FBI’s executive assistant director of human resources, after Moore “refused to answer questions during her transcribed interview about the FBI’s retaliation against brave whistleblowers who have come forward to raise concerns about abuses they have seen at the bureau,” according to Russell Dye, a spokesman for Jordan.
Jordan contacted Moore in 2022 as he investigated allegations of misconduct within the bureau, including allegations from whistleblowers that the FBI was working to purge employees with conservative views. The purge allegedly was taking place through security clearance revocations and indefinite suspensions.
“Many of the formal notices for these adverse personnel actions have been signed by you,” Jordan said at the time, adding that information suggested that Moore had also retaliated against at least one whistleblower who made disclosures to Congress.
Jordan requested a transcribed interview and the preservation of materials relating to the allegations.(The Epoch Times) Read more

TOP STORY 3:
Supreme Court Rejects Oil Companies’ Attempt to Move Climate Change Lawsuits to Federal Court
|
|
|
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday rejected a bid by major oil companies to move a series of climate change-related lawsuits against them out of state courts and into federal courts, where they hoped to have better odds.
The justices denied (pdf) a total of five petitions from BP, Chevron, Exxon Mobil, Shell, Suncor Energy, and Sunoco LP over lower court rulings that keep their cases in the state court where they were originally filed.
These companies are accused of causing climate change damages to properties owned or operated by the state of Rhode Island; the counties of Boulder, Colorado and San Mateo, California; and the cities of Baltimore, Maryland, Boulder, Colorado, and Honolulu, Hawaii.
A separate appeal by the oil companies challenging lower court decisions in climate accountability lawsuits brought by the states of New Jersey and Delaware is still pending before the Supreme Court.
Justice Samuel Alito, who owns oil stocks, recused himself from Monday’s decisions. Justice Brett Kavanaugh indicated that he would grant the petition for the case involving Colorado municipalities and Suncor and Exxon.
The lawsuits, backed by the Biden administration, are largely seen as an effort to force through environmental regulations from the bench, as opposed to having elected lawmakers craft and pass laws that address the issue. (The Epoch Times) Read more

2. Israel’s UN envoy walks out of Security Council to protest Memorial Day session -Times of Israel
NEW YORK — Israel’s envoy to the United Nations walked out of the Security Council and read the names of Israelis killed in the past year to protest the body holding a session critical of Israel on Memorial Day.
The periodic Security Council session on “the Palestinian question” was held at UN headquarters in New York and was led by Russia.
“Today is one of the most sacred days of the year for the State of Israel,” Gilad Erdan said. “We made numerous requests to reschedule today’s debate, describing the deep importance of the day, yet tragically, this council refused to budge. (Read more)

3. ‘We Are Moving Forward:’ Ukrainian Envoy to Tel Aviv Praises Israeli Government for Boosting Aid Provision - Algemeiner
Ukraine’s envoy to Israel praised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for reportedly personally approving the provision of a smart warning missile defense system to the democratic government in Kyiv as it battles the ongoing Russian invasion.
“I have to admire the current Israeli government for its assistance to Ukraine,” Ambassador Yevgen Korniychuk told The Algemeiner during an interview in New York on Tuesday. “And it’s important that I express my thanks to Netanyahu personally, because I know that he took charge and decided to allocate funds for this purpose.”
Both Israeli and Ukrainian media outlets reported last week that the Israeli authorities had agreed to supply Ukraine with a system that protects civilians from missile attacks by delivering a red alert warning to cellphones in targeted areas. Korniychuk had been lobbying Israel to provide the system, which it utilizes to protect its own population from missile attacks from Gaza, for more than a year, insisting in an earlier interview with The Algemeiner in his Tel Aviv office back in January that its provision would not contradict Israel’s reluctance to supply Ukraine with offensive weaponry, since “this is not a weapon at all…but a vehicle that would enable the saving of lives.” (Read more)

4. Turkey, Iran, Syria, Russia hold ‘constructive talks’ over rebuilding ties - i24News
The defense and intelligence envoys of Iran, Russia, Syria, and Turkey held talks in Moscow on Tuesday as part of efforts to rebuild ties between Ankara and Damascus after years of hostility during the Syrian war.
At the talks – which were described as “constructive” – the officials discussed strengthening security in Syria and the normalization of relations between Ankara and Damascus, according to the Turkish and Russian defense ministries.
They added that the countries reaffirmed their desire to preserve Syria's territorial integrity and the need to intensify efforts for the speedy return of Syrian refugees to their country.
NATO alliance member Turkey has backed political and armed opposition to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad during the 12-year civil war, and has sent its own troops into the country’s north. Moscow is Assad’s main ally and Russia has encouraged reconciliation with Ankara, but Damascus demands the full withdrawal of Turkish troops for relations to be restored. (Read more)

5. With ‘anti-Israel voices on the rise,’ group of Democrats call for conditioning US aid to Israel - JNS
(April 25, 2023 / JNS) Fourteen Democratic members of Congress, led by Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), urged U.S. President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken on April 13 to condition U.S. aid to Israel.
“We call on your administration to ensure that all future foreign assistance to Israel, including weapons and equipment, is not used in support of gross violations of human rights, including by strengthening end-use monitoring and financial tracking,” wrote the lawmakers.
The other signers were Reps. Cori Bush (D-Mo.), Andre Carson (D-Ind.), Summer Lee (D-Pa.), Betty McCollum (D-Minn.), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.), Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-N.J.), Jesus “Chuy” Garcia (D-Ill.) and Delia Ramirez (D-Ill.).
None of the 14 signatories responded to a query from JNS about whether they would support conditioning U.S. aid to Palestinians on the latter’s respect for Israeli and Jewish civil rights. (Read more)

1. State bill aims to impose stricter discipline in schools - Local 12
A bill moving through the general assembly in one state aims to improve discipline in schools. If it passes, North Carolina students could face suspension if they use inappropriate language, disrespect teachers, violent dress code or fight.
While some parents are concerned and believe other approaches, like therapy, would be more effective, others think stricter discipline is necessary.
"It's kids behavior, disrespecting teachers, they talk to the teachers like they're equals. That's the problem," one parent said.
The total number of short-term suspensions increased in the 2022 school year by 7.2 percent, and statistics show that Black and Native American students, students with disabilities and male students have the highest rates of short-term suspension. (Read more)

- We stand in agreement for this plan to implement discipline, structure and order. We pray for appropriate consequences for the students that will draw them to learn respect and honor, as well as improving academic achievement for them and all students as well as safety for the entire teaching staff, in Jesus name.

2. Coroner Rules Young Doctor Died from Blood Clot Due to COVID Vaccine -
Western Journal A London Coroner’s Court has ruled that the blood clot that killed British psychologist Stephen Wright in January 2021 was linked to the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine.The AstraZeneca vaccine is not approved for use in the United States. Wright, 32, died 10 days after receiving his first dose of the vaccine, according to the BBC.”
“Dr. Wright was a fit and healthy man who had the AstraZeneca COVID vaccination on 16 January 2021, awoke with a headache on the 25th and later developed left arm numbness,” coroner Andrew Harris said in his ruling, according to Fox News. “He attended an emergency department just after midnight, where he was found to have high blood pressure and a sagittal sinus venous thrombosis.”
“He was transferred to King’s College Hospital at 6:39 am but, because of the extent of the bleed and very low platelets, was unfit for surgery, dying at 6:33 pm. My conclusion as to the cause of death is unintended complications of vaccination,” he ruled. (Read more)

- Father, every single life lost involving the covid and vaxes is a needless tragedy and we pray for justice for every family, in Jesus name. We thank You that this one case has been proven to be the vax and we pray for more revelation regarding the high level of risk involved with them, especially for children and child-bearing aged women. Holy King, we command a halt to the chemicals, gain-of-function and viruses being released, in Jesus name.

3. ‘It’s Very Hard’: Sean Hannity Stunned By Tucker Carlson Leaving Fox - The Daily Caller
Fox News anchor Sean Hannity said Monday that he was stunned by Fox News’ announcement that Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson was leaving his primetime show.
Fox News announced Monday that Carlson and the network were parting ways. Hannity, whose show on Fox News starts immediately after Carlson’s now-former time slot, had no idea that Carlson would be leaving. Speaking on his radio show “The Sean Hannity Show” on Monday night, Hannity said “it’s very hard.”
“My phone has been blowing up all day. The hard part for me is I don’t have a clue … I have no idea. Was it Tucker’s decision? Was it Fox’s? Was it a mutual agreement that they had? I don’t know,” Hannity told his audience. “I guess people think that because I’ve been there the longest that I’d have some knowledge or understanding of what’s going on, but… I just don’t.” (Read more)

- Abba, we pray for a news station that is strong, stable and reliable that will release the unvarnished, unbiased truth, as journalists should. We thank You that Hannity has done his best, within the restrictions of his employer and we thank You also, that Tucker has been released from those restrictions. We pray for their safety and bless You for what You will do through them to release truth to the people of this nation and set the captives free, in Jesus name.
- "Then He said to them, 'Take heed what you hear. With the same measure you use, it will be measured to you; and to you who hear, more will be given. For whoever has, to him more will be given; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.'" (Mark 4:24-25)

4. Biden will veto McCarthy's debt limit package, White House announces - Washington Examiner
President Joe Biden will veto House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's (R-CA) debt limit bill, should it pass both chambers of Congress.
Biden's Office of Management and Budget released a Statement of Administration Policy Tuesday morning indicating that the administration "strongly opposes the Limit, Save, Grow Act of 2023, which is a reckless attempt to extract extreme concessions as a condition for the United States simply paying the bills it has already incurred."
"The President has been clear that he will not accept such attempts at hostage-taking. House Republicans must take default off the table and address the debt limit without demands and conditions, just as the Congress did three times during the prior Administration," the statement continued.
“The bill stands in stark contrast to the President’s vision for the economy. The President’s Budget invests in America, lowers costs for families, grows the economy, and reduces the deficit by nearly $3 trillion by asking the wealthy and large corporations to pay their fair share. Therefore, if the President were presented with the Limit, Save, Grow Act of 2023, he would veto it." (Read more)

- Holy King, we, the people will not be held hostage to the agenda destroying our national economy, in Jesus name. We declare that all citizens will hear what is being said out of the White House and use reasoning to recognize wisdom from foolishness. May there be a demand for unacceptable budget excesses to be brought under control and that there will be strength to override the veto, in Jesus name.

5. Dem mayor is ‘coming for your food,’ waging war on modern US diet to boost climate agenda, expert says - DML News
Climate warriors are waging war on the modern American diet with crackdowns on beef and dairy products, author Marc Morano said Monday, firing back at Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams after he announced an effort to push plant-based meals citywide.
“First, they came for your energy. Then they came for your gas-powered cars, your freedom of movement, your cheap flights. Now they’re coming for your food,” Morano, author of “The Great Reset: Global Elites and the Permanent Lockdown,” said on “Fox News Tonight.”
Last week, Adams and other city officials announced that they would begin cracking down on food production and consumption in an effort to curb greenhouse gas emissions and boost their climate agenda. The New York City Department of Environmental Protection released a so-called greenhouse gas inventory as part of the announcement, highlighting the carbon footprint of the city’s main sectors including the food industry.

- Mighty God, we put this mayor in Your holy hands and ask You to deal with His desire for control and domination of millions of people in New York and pave the wave for the nation and world. We reject his theories and propaganda and declare them null and void, as ashes, in Jesus name. We pray for the safety and security of our food supply and especially ask You Father to protect the small, independent farmers and their livestock from 2-legged predators and destroyers, in Jesus name, and send many angelic warriors.
- "That say, 'Let Him make speed and hasten His work, That we may see it; And let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, That we may know it.'" (Isaiah 5:19)

6. WHO official sounds alarm after fighters reportedly seize lab with samples of deadly viruses - DML News
The World Health Organization (WHO) Representative in Sudan reportedly warned Tuesday of a “high risk of biological hazard” after one of the sides fighting in the conflict seized a central public laboratory with samples of measles and polio, creating an “extremely, extremely dangerous” situation.
Dr. Nima Saeed Abid, assigned to the post of WHO Representative in Sudan, effective Aug. 4, 2020, addressed reporters in Geneva, Switzerland, via video link.
The report added that Abid also stated the technicians were not able to secure the materials in time from the National Public Health Laboratory. He said, “This is the main concern: no accessibility to the lab technicians to go to the lab and safely contain the biological material and substances available.”
According to reports, five aid workers have been killed and two U.N. agencies, the International Organization for Migration and the World Food Programme, have suspended their activities. (Read more)

- Father, we plead the blood of Jesus over Sudan, the people and the vulnerable sites at risk, such as this lab and others. Once again, we are learning of a lab with dangerous pathogens in it being in the center of war conflict. We ask You to put all the deadly things under Your feet and let no one gain access or control or just simply let things go, in Jesus name. We pray for a ceasefire and a dismantling of these labs for the safety of humanity, in Jesus name.

7. Biden’s HHS Moves Forward with Rule to Open Obamacare to DACA Illegal Aliens - Brietbart
President Joe Biden is moving forward with a proposed federal rule to open Affordable Care Act benefits, known as Obamacare and subsidized by American taxpayers, to illegal aliens enrolled in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
This month, Biden announced a plan to open Obamacare and Medicaid rolls, both subsidized by American taxpayers, to nearly 600,000 illegal aliens currently enrolled in DACA — the program created by former President Obama, via executive order, that has shielded more than a million illegal aliens from deportation through the years.
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra, whom Breitbart News reported has long sought to open taxpayer-funded healthcare benefits to illegal aliens, is overseeing the plan while Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Alejandro Mayorkas has said he hopes the plan leads to an amnesty for illegal aliens.

- Mighty God, we ask You to remove and replace those government officials who are not working for the benefit of the American people according to our Constitution, in Jesus name. We bind and rebuke every plan to degrade and diminish the quality of life for the citizens of this nation. We pray for the illegal aliens who are caught up in this agenda-driven challenge and pray for justice for them, in Jesus name.

8. Sudan factions agree to 72-hour ceasefire as foreigners are evacuated - Reuters
KHARTOUM, April 24 (Reuters) - Sudan's warring factions agreed to a 72-hour ceasefire starting on Tuesday, while Western, Arab and Asian nations raced to extract their citizens from the country. The Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) said the U.S. and Saudi Arabia mediated the truce. U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken announced the agreement first and said it followed two days of intense negotiations. The two sides have not abided by several previous temporary truce deals.
Fighting erupted between the SAF and Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary group on April 15 and has killed at least 427 people, knocked out hospitals and other services, and turned residential areas into war zones.
"During this period, the United States urges the SAF and RSF to immediately and fully uphold the ceasefire," Blinken said in a statement. He said the U.S. would coordinate with regional, international and Sudanese civilian interests to create a committee that would oversee work on a permanent ceasefire and humanitarian arrangements.

The Woke Target On Our Children
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, April 25, 2023
One way to destroy a country is to destroy the family core. The “woke” extremists, the current darlings of the Biden Administration and leftist news media, are taking aim at every kid in America. It’s a coordinated attack from the White House on down to state governments where the LGBTQ+ agenda has been turned loose on the sons and daughters of America in an all-out effort to evangelize, confuse, recruit, groom, and conscript into a lifestyle that leads to a lifetime of depression and often suicide. Joe Biden has endorsed this child predation saying on March 30, “We celebrate the activism and determination that have fueled the fight for transgender equality.” Every child is at risk to this activism. It must be stopped.
Biden thinks that every kid should have the opportunity to choose their sex. And some of the most liberal states in the Union are trying to codify in law the LGBTQ+ ability to prey on our children. It wasn’t enough in California to ban gas stoves and gasoline-powered vehicles, now the state is going after children. Already a “sanctuary” state for children fleeing from conservative states that protect minors from transgenderism, now the state’s Judiciary Committee passed the bill allowing mental health professionals to place children in residential facilities upon a minor’s request, even if the children are not experiencing abuse or neglect at home. And the mental health professional can determine whether parents are notified. Read More

Ex-Satanist, Ex-Witch React as SatanCon Arrives: ‘The Enemy Is Waging All Out War Right in Our Faces’
|
|
|
|
Christian leaders are responding to The Satanic Temple’s (TST) announcement about its second public convention – “a weekend of blasphemy” – to be held in Boston, Massachusetts this upcoming weekend.
The event known as “SatanCon 2023” will take place from April 28-30 at the Boston Marriott Copley Place. It’s being advertised by the TST as the “largest Satanic gathering in history.”
The official theme is “Hexennacht in Boston” or “Witches Night,” an ancient German holiday that occurs annually on April 30.
In response, Christians are sounding alarms and planning to fight a spiritual battle to push back against the darkness.
Three-Day Christian Revival Scheduled for Same Weekend
In what’s been described as a spiritual “counter-offensive” to SatanCon 2023, revivalist Dr. Jaymz Sideras, co-founder of ReviveBoston, and his wife Pascale have scheduled a three-day revival in Boston the same weekend.
Christian services will be held at 7:00 p.m. nightly on April 28-30 at the Revere Hotel Boston Common, 200 Stuart Street, which is less than a mile from the TST convention. A street evangelism campaign is also being planned by ReviveBoston to be held Saturday, April 29.
“Now make no mistake friends, this is an all-out war between the kingdom of Satan and the Kingdom of God for the soul of America,” Sideras said in a video trailer for ReviveBoston April 2023 posted to YouTube.
‘The Enemy Is No Longer Hiding’
Former Wiccan witch Jennie Weaver, who’s now a Christian worship artist and Bible teacher, warned in an email to CBN News that public events like Satancon mean “the enemy is no longer hiding.”
“As someone who has come out of witchcraft, and the demonic realm, I can say for sure that the enemy is no longer hiding. What we are seeing is a massive spiritual battle and the enemy is waging an all-out war right in our faces!! I think he’s overplayed this one because now Christians who have been silent on issues before are ‘Enough is enough’ – this is a SHOWDOWN!!!”
“As Christians, we must raise up and take back the land for Christ!” Weaver added. “These people are spitting on the biblical principles that our nation was founded on, and it’s time we take back the land.” (Faithwire) You can read all of this article by going here.

- Father God, we do not rejoice in the news of this event soon to take place in the City of Boston. Rather, we rejoice that the enemy's troops are now coming out of the darkness, that they may find Your light. We rejoice, too, that this action in Boston has now served as a national wake up call, that the sleeping church can no longer ignore this evil in our land but instead must confront these souls with the never-failing forgiveness and love of our Messiah.
Let us put on the full armor of God, and BIND the satanic forces that have enslaved these souls. Father God, we ask You to give us action plans and strategies so that we can overcome this evil with good. In Your Name, amen.
- "Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.…" (Ephesians 6:10-12)

'Abortion Is Never a Good Option':
Mobile Pregnancy Unit to Serve Pregnant Women in MS
|
|
Saving the lives of unborn babies: that's the mission of one Mississippi couple – using an RV to bring pregnancy care to expectant mothers. They're helping women in some of the poorest neighborhoods in America, as the couple seeks to transform the region. "This is a mobile pregnancy center – it's ministering and sharing the gospel with women here in the Mississippi Delta region," said Pastor Joseph Parker from Tupelo, MS. Guided by their faith – Pastor Parker and his wife, Birdie have raised nearly $20,000 to purchase an RV for helping pregnant women in the Delta choose life over abortion. "It's also sharing hope and compassion with those who would otherwise be hopeless," Parker said. "One of the priority goals is to share the gospel and do discipleship work – we provide free ultrasounds and free pregnancy tests."
The Parkers and their RV joined ICU Mobile, which supports mobile pregnancy units serving more than 40 cities across 20 states. The organization's data shows 3-out-of-5 women who enter an ICU Mobile pregnancy unit will choose life. Since 2004, they've reached over 18,000 women who've chosen life after seeing their baby on ultrasound – and over 1,400 women have dedicated their lives to Christ. The Mississippi Delta has unique challenges across the board, according to Parker. Those include being in a state scoring high in categories of poverty and mortality rates for both birthing mothers and infants. "I believe the church brings the answer to all these problems," Parker said. "Every problem is spiritual in nature first." Parker hopes to also connect moms with a local church to help with long-term care after their baby is born. (CBN) Read More

- Abba, we give You GLORY for women choosing LIFE through the development of mobile pregnancy units! Bless Pastor Parker and many others for being Christ's hands and feet to women in need. May the news of saved lives bring desire for expansion of mobile pregnancy units across our nation. In Jesus name we decree that many more babies will be saved and they will each grow to proclaim Christ as their Lord and Savior! Amen

Biden launches 2024 presidential reelection bid
|
|
|
President Joe Biden has decided to seek a second term, announcing his 2024 reelection campaign and ending months of speculation about his future.
Biden, 80, is already the oldest commander in chief after former President Ronald Reagan, who departed the White House in 1989 at 77. He rolled out his bid with a prerecorded video on the anniversary of his 2020 launch before addressing union members in Washington, D.C.
Biden's announcement coincides with his average 43%-54% approval-disapproval rating and polling that suggests voters, including Democrats, would prefer another nominee. An NBC News poll published last weekend, for example, found 26% of the public supported Biden running again, while 70% did not. A majority of Democrats similarly told pollsters the president should not be a candidate.
Biden's second campaign will be managed by top White House aide Julie Chavez Rodriguez and headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware, with wealthy donors gathering in Washington on Friday. (Washington Examiner) See more

We put Joe Biden firmly into Your righteous hands and ask You to do business with him. Amen.
- "You are of purer eyes than to behold evil, And cannot look on wickedness. Why do You look on those who deal treacherously, And hold Your tongue when the wicked devours A person more righteous than he?" (Habakkuk 1:13)

No, not one! No, not one!
None else could heal all our soul’s diseases,
No, not one! No, not one!
Refrain
Jesus knows all about our struggles,
He will guide till the day is done;
There’s not a friend like the lowly Jesus,
No, not one! No, not one!
No friend like Him is so high and holy,
No, not one! No, not one!
And yet no friend is so meek and lowly,
No, not one! No, not one!
Refrain
There’s not an hour that He is not near us,
No, not one! No, not one!
No night so dark but His love can cheer us,
No, not one! No, not one!
Refrain
Did ever saint find this friend forsake him?
No, not one! No, not one!
Or sinner find that He would not take him?
No, not one! No, not one!
Refrain
Was ever a gift like the Savior given?
No, not one! No, not one!
Will He refuse us a home in Heaven?
No, not one! No, not one!
