THE HOLLOW OF GOD'S HAND

This collection brings together four classic hymns of assurance and divine providence: "The Hollow of God's Hand," "There Shall Be Showers of Blessing," "Count Your Blessings," and "Standing on the Promises." These are the kinds of songs that lift the spirit during a challenging week, reminding the congregation of God's steadfast love and protection.

In the choir loft, these hymns are often pulled out for moments of thanksgiving, revivals, or as recessional pieces that send the people out with confidence. Singing them in four-part harmony brings a deep sense of communal strength to the pews. The familiar, driving rhythms of "Standing on the Promises" contrast beautifully with the gentle, rolling melody of "Showers of Blessing," offering a well-rounded expression of faith.

The simple, concrete imagery in these verses gives them their enduring power. Singing about being held safely in the hollow of God's hand, feeling the refreshing rain of His grace, or literally naming our gifts one by one anchors the mind and spirit. They are songs we return to whenever we need to remember the solid ground of our beliefs.
