This is the first hymn I memorized. My sister Alida taught it to me when I was about four years old and she was ten or eleven. It was a Sunday afternoon. She was babysitting me at home while the rest of the family went to church for the pm service. We were both very proud when my parents and other siblings returned and we demonstrated what I had learned.
I remember especially enjoying the phrase "omnipotent to save." I loved the way the word "omnipotent" sounded and came out of my mouth and lips.
