Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. (Psa. 26:2)
Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. (Psa. 139:23‑24)
If any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. (1 John 2:1)
Thy pure eyes do read me through;
   My soul is naked unto Thee;
And yet — oh wonder ever new —
   Thou, my Lord, lovest me.
So, O Lord, I come to Thee,
   Confess my sins — name them all,
Well knowing Thou shalt gracious be,
   Thou lover of my soul.

The ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord, and He pondereth all his goings. (Prov. 5:21)
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. (Eccl. 12:13‑14)
The judgment was set, and the books were opened. (Dan. 7:10)
Death and after death the judgment
   Will o’ertake you like a flood —
Jesus only can avail you,
   Jesus and His precious blood.
Let the story of His goodness
   Change your ways and your poor heart;
From the glory He descended,
   Here with man to take His part.

Thy beauty, Lord, and glory,
   The wonders of Thy love,
Shall be the endless story
   Of all Thy saints above.

I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me. (Psa. 40:17)
Thou, O God, hast prepared of Thy goodness for the poor. (Psa. 68:10)
There they were with David three days, eating and drinking: for their brethren had prepared for them. (1 Chron. 12:39)

A fullness abides to answer all need:

   store,
A plentiful treasure, to give to the poor.
Whatever distress awaits us below,
Such plentiful grace the Lord will bestow,
As still shall support us and silence our
   fear,
And nothing can hurt us while Jesus is
   near.

Ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto Me above all people: for all the earth is Mine: and ye shall be unto Me a kingdom of priests. (Ex. 19:5‑6)
Ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. (1 Peter 2:9)
One string there is of sweetest tone,
   Reserved for sinners saved by grace;
’Tis sacred to one class alone,
   And touched by one peculiar race.
Though angels boast their heavenly King,
   And Him their Lord adoring own,
We can with exultation sing,
   “He wears our nature on the throne.”

He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed. And there appeared an angel unto Him from heaven, strengthening Him. And being in an agony He prayed more earnestly: and His sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. (Luke 22:41,43‑44)
Though He were a Son, yet learned He obedience by the things which He suffered; and being made perfect, He became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey Him; called of God a high priest after the order of Melchisedec. (Heb. 5:8‑10)
Jesus, Captain of salvation,
   Conqueror both of death and hell!
Thou who didst as sin’s oblation
   Feel what Thou alone couldst feel:
Through Thy sufferings, death and merit,
We eternal bliss inherit.

Hide me under the shadow of Thy WINGS. (Psa. 17:8)

Because Thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of Thy WINGS will I rejoice. (Psa. 63:7)
He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His WINGS shalt thou trust. (Psa. 91:4)
Safe in the cleft of the rock do Thou hide us,
Shelter us far from the tempests’ wild roar;
Under Thy wings shall no evil betide us;
In Thy strong arm shall our confidence be;
Who can make trouble when Thou givest quiet?
Peace of the world, we are trusting in Thee.

A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are My disciples, if ye have love one to another. (John 13:34‑35)
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God. (1 John 4:7)
Be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only. (James 1:22)
God has given a standard of love to His own,
That His children should have for each other;
That as He unto us love unmeasured has
   shown,
We ought also to love one another.
Could we ever the marvels of that love
   discern?
Could we fathom the depths of His grace?
Through eternity more of its riches we’ll learn,
Of the One who has died in our place.

   Wrath’s awful cup He drained;
Laid down His life, and e’en the tomb’s
   Reproach sustained.

   Stands open now to heaven;
Thence, where the blood is seen alway,
   God’s gift is given.

Our earthen vessels break;
   The world itself grows old;
But Christ our precious dust will take
   And freshly mold:
He’ll give these bodies vile
   A fashion like His own;
He’ll bid the whole creation smile,
   And hush its groan.

The barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord. (1 Kings 17:16)
Is your cruse of comfort failing?
   Rise and share it with another,
And through all the years of famine
   It shall serve you and your brother;
Is your burden hard and heavy?
   Do your steps drag wearily?
Help to bear your brother’s burden:
   God will bear both it and thee.

Let Thy priests be clothed with righteousness; and let Thy saints shout for joy. I will also clothe her priests with salvation: and her saints shall shout aloud for joy. (Psa. 132:9,16)

Let all shout aloud, and honor the Son;
The praises of Jesus God’s saints will proclaim;
They’ll fall on their faces to worship the Lamb.
And soon shall we enter our own promised
   land;
Around His bright throne in glory shall stand:
Our song then forever and ever shall be,
All glory and blessing, Lord Jesus, to Thee!

His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; and declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead. (Rom. 1:3‑4)
Awake each soul! Awake each tongue!
   The subject is divine;
The Savior’s love demands our song;
   Let all His people join.
This Savior is the mighty God,
   The God of heaven above;
Revealed in flesh, He shed His blood,
   Blest proof of endless love.

Of safety, strength and beauty too;
’Tis all our rest and peace to see
Our SANCTUARY, Lord, in Thee.

Savior, guard me, lest I grieve Thee,
   Lest I cease to love Thy cross:
      This is treasure;
   All the rest I count but dross.

Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness. (Judg. 14:14)
After that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. We preach Christ crucified. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. (1 Cor. 1:21,23,25)
Thine the wisdom, in the manger,
   Thine the power, upon the cross,
Thine the glory as the stranger!
   Riches, though in utter loss.
In Thy Father’s house in glory,
   Sinners saved shall dwell with Thee;
Oh, the sweetness of the story,
   Love’s own record we shall be.

We know that, if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. (2 Cor. 5:1,4)
Green pastures are before me,
   Which yet I have not seen;
Bright skies will soon be o’er me,
   Where the dark clouds have been;
Ere yet another morning
   My spirit may be free,
As absent from the body,
   At home, O Lord, with Thee;
Oh sleep, oh rest, how precious!
   As guarded by Thy care,
I’m waiting for Thy promise
   To meet Thee in the air.

   All we can do or say,
As in Thy people Thou indeed
   Dost daily more display;
Let, for our happiness, O God,
   On us while here below,
By virtue of Christ’s death and blood,
   Thy richest blessings flow.

Thou, Israel, art My servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham My friend. (Isa. 41:8)

   O great High Priest of God!
My heart brought nigh to God’s own heart

   Reveals the Father’s heart —
Not what I am, or I must be:
   It tells me what Thou art.

Jesus! the name we love so well,
   The name we love to hear!
No saint on earth its worth can tell;
   No heart conceive how dear.
This name shall shed its fragrance still
   Along this thorny road,
Shall sweetly smooth the rugged hill
   That leads us up to God.

I read from the past that my future shall be
   Far better than all my fears.

Thy smile of love my highest bliss below!
With Thee transact life’s business — doing all
With single aim for Thee — as Thou dost call.

Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that He had spoken these things unto her. Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. And when He had so said, He showed unto them His hands and His side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord. (John 20:18‑20)
We hear the words of love;
   We gaze upon the blood;

   At God’s right hand above;
We know the throne on which He sits;
   We know His truth and love!
