“Don't Lose Your Song” 10/02/2005 Dr. Dane Boyles

“Don't Lose Your Song” Psalm 139:1-9 1 By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept when we remembered Zion. 2 There on the poplars we hung our harps,

“Don't Lose Your Song” 3 for there our captors asked us for songs, our tormentors demanded songs of joy; they said, "Sing us one of the songs of Zion!“ 4 How can we sing the songs of the LORD while in a foreign land?

“Don't Lose Your Song” 5 If I forget you, O Jerusalem, may my right hand forget its skill. 6 May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth if I do not remember you, if I do not consider Jerusalem my highest joy.

“Don't Lose Your Song” 7 Remember, O LORD, what the Edomites did on the day Jerusalem fell. "Tear it down," they cried, "tear it down to its foundations!“ 8 O Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, happy is he who repays you for what you have done to us- 9 he who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks.

“Don't Lose Your Song”  Don’t Let Persecution Take Away Your Song. 33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33) “…Be take heart; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33)

“Don't Lose Your Song” The Lord reminds us that while we are in this world, we will have tribulation or trials. When persecution comes our way, sing anyway! Paul and Silas in Philippi.

“Don't Lose Your Song” 25 About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them. 26 Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open, and everybody's chains came loose. (Acts 16:25- 26)

“Don't Lose Your Song”  Don’t Let Pain Take Away Your Song. Pain comes in many forms. 17 To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat of it,’ “Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it

“Don't Lose Your Song” God is the God of all comfort. God uses our pain to prepare us to minister to others.

“Don't Lose Your Song” 3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. (2 Cor 1:3-4)

“Don't Lose Your Song” When pain and sorrow comes our way, sing anyway!  Don’t Let People Take Away Your Song. 22 So with you: Now is your time of grief, but I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy. (John 16:22)

“Don't Lose Your Song” The longer I live the more I am convinced of the sinfulness of man! People hurt each other. Even Christian people hurt one another! 10 Though my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will receive me. (Ps 27:10)

“Don't Lose Your Song” Don’t let people take away your song! Sing anyway!  Don’t Let Persecution Take Away Your Song.  Don’t Let Pain Take Away Your Song.  Don’t Let People Take Away Your Song.

“Don't Lose Your Song” How can we sing the songs of the Lord while in a foreign land? (Psa 137:4)
