The year was 1977. We had the most powerful revival on Penang Hill of which more than 30 young men & women responded to the Call to serve God
Among those who attended the Camp of about 150 people or more was Brother Amos Depasquale
Here is a man of great compassion and prayer.
He together with a number of us started confessing our sins publicly. And God poured out His Spirit. It was then a time of fervent confessions & reconciliations. Oh how blessed!
Next year Brother Amos visited us in Singapore & he fasted and prayed for 7 days on liquid only (no solid food)
We got him some packets of milk.
And one particular day I went up with Brother Amos to Mt Faber
Here beholding the pure pristine view from Mt Faber he asked me to sing
Holy, Holy, Holy
Holy, holy, holy
Lord, God Almighty
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee
Lord, God Almighty
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee
Holy, holy, holy
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons blessed Trinity
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons blessed Trinity
Holy, holy, holy
Though the darkness hide Thee
Though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see
Though the darkness hide Thee
Though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see
Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee
Perfect in power, in love, and purity
Perfect in power, in love, and purity
Holy, holy, holy…
When I came to the 2nd stanza
“Holy, holy, holy
Though the darkness hide Thee
Though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see”
Though the darkness hide Thee
Though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see”
Brother Amos broke down & wept at the glory of God!
I was so moved & my heart was full….
Too glorious to describe…
