He which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts. (2 Cor. 1:21‑22)
After that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise, which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of His glory. (Eph. 1:13‑14)
Thou hast bestowed the earnest
   Of that we shall inherit;
Till Thou shalt come to take us home,
   We’re sealed by God the Spirit;
We wait for Thine appearing,
   When we shall know more fully
The grace divine that made us Thine,
   Thou Lamb of God most holy!

I will praise the Lord according to His righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the Lord most high. (Psa. 7:17)
Be Thou exalted, Lord, in Thine own strength: so will we sing and praise Thy power. (Psa. 21:13)
Now in a song of grateful praise,
To our dear Lord the voice we’ll raise;
With all His saints we’ll join to tell,
“Our Jesus has done all things well.”
All worlds His glorious power
   confess,
His wisdom all His works express;
But oh, His love! What tongue can
   tell?
“Our Jesus has done all things well.”

Christ also loved the church, and gave Himself for it. (Eph. 5:25)
Our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world. (Gal. 1:3‑4)
I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me. (Gal. 2:20)
Lord, Thy love has sought and found
      us
   Wandering in this desert wide;
Thou hast thrown Thine arms around
      us,
   For us suffered, bled and died:
Sing, my soul! He loved thee;
Jesus gave Himself for me.

The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid. In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried unto my God: He heard my voice out of His temple, and my cry came before Him, even into His ears. (Psa. 18:4,6)
The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear Him, and delivereth them. (Psa. 34:7)
The billows that guarded my sea-girt path
   But carried my Lord on their crest;
When I dwell on the days of my
      wilderness march,
   I can lean on His love for the rest;
Like the golden pot of the wilderness bread
   Laid up with the blossoming rod,
All safe in the ark with the law of the Lord
   Is the wonderful care of my God.

Take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to them that are weak. (1 Cor. 8:9)
Let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. (1 Cor. 10:12)
O Master, let me walk with Thee
In lowly paths of service free;
Teach me the wayward feet to stay,
And guide them in the homeward
   way.
Teach me Thy patience; still with Thee
In closer, dearer company,
In work that keeps faith sweet and
   strong,
In trust that triumphs over wrong.

Mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as a heavy burden they are too heavy for me. (Psa. 38:4)
If Thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? But there is forgiveness with Thee, that Thou mayest be feared. (Psa. 130:3‑4)
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases. (Psa. 103:3)
Jesus only can impart
Peace of conscience, joy of heart;
Jesus only can proclaim
Pardon through His blessed name.
Jesus only — sweetest plea,
When the soul its state can see;
When its misery it can feel,
Jesus only then can heal.

I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb. (Rev. 12:10‑11)
What though the accuser roar
   Of ills that I have done!
I know them well, and thousands more:
   Jehovah findeth none.
There, in His book, I bear
   More than a conqueror’s name,
Of soldier, son and fellow-heir,
   Who fought and overcame.

What things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, and be found in Him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith. (Phil. 3:7‑9)
For this, oh, may we freely count
   Whate’er we have but loss;
The dearest object of our love,
   Compared with Thee, but dross.
Engrave this deeply on our hearts
   With an eternal pen,
That we may, in some small degree,
   Return Thy love again.

Four thousand praised the Lord with the instruments which I made, said David, to praise therewith. And to stand every morning to thank and praise the Lord, and likewise at even. (1 Chron. 23:5,30)
By Him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name. (Heb. 13:15)
To Thee, O God, our hearts we raise
In solemn songs of thankful praise;
Thee as our God and Father own,
And bow our souls before Thy throne,
While here below we seek to sound
Thy praise to earth’s remotest bound.

I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? (Isa. 6:8)
Go, I pray thee, see whether it be well with thy brethren, and well with the flocks; and bring me word again. (Gen. 37:14)
The works which the Father hath given Me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of Me, that the Father hath sent Me. (John 5:36)
This is life eternal, that they might know Thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent. (John 17:3)

Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with COMPASSION toward them, and He healed their sick. (Matt. 14:14)
If Thou canst do anything, have COMPASSION on us, and help us. (Mark 9:22)
When the Lord saw her, He had COMPASSION on her, and said unto her, Weep not. (Luke 7:13)
Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had COMPASSION on thee. (Mark 5:19)
But Thy COMPASSIONS, Lord,
   To endless years endure;
And all Thy people ever find
   Thy word of promise sure.

The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know His will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of His mouth. (Acts 22:14)
Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it. Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. (John 2:5,7)
Oh fill me with Thy fullness, Lord,
Until my very heart o’erflow
In kindling thought and glowing word,
Thy love to tell, Thy praise to show.
Oh use me, Lord, use even me,
Just as Thou wilt, and when, and where;
Until Thy blessed face I see,
Thy rest, Thy joy, Thy glory share.

If through the offense of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one Man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many. (Rom. 5:15)
Since by man came death, by Man came also the resurrection of the dead. (1 Cor. 15:21)
Ah! nothing to do, for the sinner that’s
   dead
Must needs have another to work in his
   stead:
And Jesus, in Calvary’s terrible hour,
Redemption accomplished in marvelous
   power,
Which shut up the world to its folly and
   strife,
But opened a passage from death unto life.

God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by His own power. (1 Cor. 6:14)
If we have been planted together in the likeness of His death, we shall be also in the likeness of His resurrection. (Rom. 6:5)
Quickened with Him with life
   divine,
Raised with Him from the dead;
His own and all His own are Thine,
Shall with Him in His glories shine,
His church’s living Head!
We, who were worthy but to die,
Now with Him, “Abba, Father,”
   cry.

The Lord did not set His love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people: but because the Lord loved you, and because He would keep the oath which He had sworn unto your fathers, hath the Lord brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Know therefore that the Lord thy God, He is God, the faithful God. (Deut. 7:7‑9)
God’s grace will to the end
   Clearer and brighter shine;
Nor present things, nor things to come,
   Can change His love divine.

O our God, hear the prayer of Thy servant, and his supplications, and cause Thy face to shine upon Thy sanctuary. (Dan. 9:17)
The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will receive my prayer. (Psa. 6:9)
My joyous colors faint and fade
   In cloudiness of dim distress;
And whispering doubts assail; afraid,
   I walk as in a wilderness.
Oh sweetness, move in me, renew;
   Look down from heaven, Thy
      dwelling place;
And do as Thou art wont to do:
   Show me the shining of Thy face.

As He sat at meat with them, He took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them, saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon. And they told what things were done in the way, and how He was known of them in breaking of bread. (Luke 24:30,33‑35)
Thou holy One and true,
   Our hearts in Thee confide,
And in the circle of Thy love,
   As brethren we abide.
In Thee we find delight,
   Firstborn ’mongst brethren Thou;
To Thy dear name alone we cling;
   To Thy sure word we bow.

Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. (John 15:20)
When the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, He shall testify of Me. (John 15:26)
In the dungeons and in the deserts
Have Thy saints by the world despised,
With joy untold and unmeasured,
Looked on the face of Christ;
In the torture or in the fire,
Midst the scorn and the hate of men,
They have seen but the light of His
   presence
Around them then.

Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by Him. (1 Peter 2:13‑14)
Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you. (Heb. 13:17)
While here, in the valley of conflict, we
   stay,
Oh give us submission and strength as
   the day:
Soon free from afflictions, to Thee we shall
   come,
And find with our Savior a heavenly
   home.

I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, saith the Lord. (Jer. 21:14)
Sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. (James 1:15)
Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. (Rom. 8:2)
Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death. (Jer. 21:8)
What though I might live without the
      Savior,
   When I come to die, how would it be?
Oh, to face the valley’s gloom without Him!
   And without Him for eternity!
Oh, the joy of having all in Jesus!
   What a balm the broken heart to heal!
Ne’er a sin so great, but He can cleanse it;
   Not a sorrow that He does not feel!

None of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. (Acts 20:24)
’Tis well when joys arise,
   ’Tis well when sorrows flow,
Or darkness seems to veil the skies,
   And strong temptations grow.
In every state secure,
   Watched by the Savior’s eye;
’Tis well with them should life
      endure,
   And well if called to die.

He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God. (Rom. 4:20)
That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. (Gal. 3:14)
Not by my faith I plead, for that can falter,
Aye, and has faltered in the days gone by;
But by Thy faithfulness that cannot alter,
And by Thine ordered promises on high,
Set safe and sure above time’s brief
   duration,
Beyond all change, eternally the same;
By these I dare my fervent supplication,
By Thy great mercies and Thy holy name.

The priests the Levites arose and blessed the people: and their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to His holy dwelling place, even unto heaven. (2 Chron. 30:27)
An odor of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, well-pleasing to God. (Phil. 4:18)
Much incense is ascending
   Before the eternal throne;
God graciously is bending
   To hear each feeble groan;
To all our prayers and praises
   Christ adds His sweet perfume,
And love the censer raises,
   These odors to consume.

The queen of the south … came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here. The men of Nineveh … repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here. (Luke 11:31‑32)
Thomas … was not with them when Jesus came. The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. And after eight days again His disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus … and stood in the midst. And Thomas … said unto Him, My Lord and my God. (John 20:24‑26,28)
Jesus is worthy to receive
   Honor and power divine:
And blessings more than we can give
   Be, Lord, forever Thine.

Quicken me, O Lord, for Thy name’s sake: for Thy righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble. (Psa. 143:11)
I will be glad and rejoice in Thy mercy: for Thou hast considered my trouble; Thou hast known my soul in adversities. (Psa. 31:7)
He was better to me than all my hopes;
He was better than all my fears;
He made a bridge of my broken dreams,
And a rainbow of my tears;
Never a watch on the dreariest halt,
But some promise of love endears;
I read from the past, that my future
   shall be
Far better than all my fears.

Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honor thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; that it may be well with thee. (Eph. 6:1‑3)
I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father. (1 John 2:13)
Fain I would be as Thou art;
Give me Thy obedient heart;
Thou art pitiful and kind;
Let me have Thy loving mind.
Meek and lowly may I be;
Thou art all humility;
Let me to my betters bow;
Subject to my parents now.

The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree. Him hath God exalted with His right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. (Acts 5:30‑31)
In whom we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins. (Col. 1:14)
Jesus is a mighty Savior,
Strong His outstretched arm to save;
He has vanquished death and Satan;
He has triumphed o’er the grave.
Jesus is a righteous Savior;
He has suffered once for sins;
Death He suffered, ere in triumph
He could bring redemption in.

He shall pray unto God, and He will be favorable unto him: and he shall see His face with joy. (Job 33:26)
Now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. (1 Cor. 13:12)
Eye has not seen, ear has not heard,
Nor entered in the heart of man,
The things that God delights to plan
For those who take Him at His word.
Now through a frosted pane we trace
The outline of His perfect will,
Content to trust His love until
We know and see Him face to face.

I have given them Thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. (John 17:14)
Sanctify them through Thy truth: Thy word is truth. (John 17:17)
Thy word, Thyself reflecting,
Does sanctify by truth,
Still leading on Thy children
With gentle, heavenly growth;
Thus still the work proceedeth,
The work begun by grace,
For each is meet, and training,
Father, to see Thy face.

Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. (Phil. 4:6)
Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving. (Col. 4:2)
Why should I ever careful be,
   Since such a God is mine?
He watches o’er me night and day,
   And tells me, “Thou art Mine.”
Ten thousand thousand precious gifts
   My daily thanks employ;
Nor is the least a cheerful heart
   To taste those gifts with joy.
