This volume contains the five Royal books by Frances Ridley Havergal. My King was first published in 1877. Royal Commandments and Royal Bounty were published together later in 1877. The Royal Invitation was published in 1878. Loyal Responses was published later in 1878. As she wrote in her Prefatory Note to Loyal Responses (on page 372 of this book), she regarded these as a set. My King. The source of the Kingship of Christ is God Himself in the eternal counsels of His love. . . . Having provided, He appointed and anointed His King. The sections of this book are taken from Old Testament texts. Why has God made Jesus King? Because the Lord loved His people. He knows our need of a King. Royal Commandments. Some of His Royal Commandments are made so 'plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth.' . . . Some are engraved upon the gems of promise; and as we look closely into the fair colours of each jewel that the hand of faith receives, we find that it is enriched by an unerasable line of precept. But all are royal, and all are 'from Him, ' our King. And He has said, 'If ye love Me, keep My commandments.' Royal Bounty. The Lord shall open unto thee His good treasure. (Deuteronomy 28:12) This book describes the gracious provision of our King to His subjects, the benefits of the Christian life, the unsearchable riches of Christ in Whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. Faith is the key to this infinite treasury. The Royal Invitation. The human heart within us craves a personal, living rest and refuge. . . . The great word of Invitation, Royal and Divine, is given to us, 'Come unto Me.' This is the Son of God, mighty to save and ready to save all who come unto Him. In Him are life and peace. Loyal Responses. These are 31 poems, in which almost every line has been either directly drawn from Holy Scripture or 'may be proved thereby.' May not only our lips but our lives be filled with Loyal Responses to all the words of our King!
