| Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth. (Luke 21:26) |
| They shall look unto the earth; and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish. (Isa. 8:22) |
| Our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ. (Phil. 3:20) |
| After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither. (Rev. 4:1) |
Give us the light of the thought of Thy coming;
Dark is the night, and its shadows are nigh,
Dim, flaring lamps of man’s genius and learning —
All, all have failed us; they flicker and die;
Dark is the night, but above and beyond it
Soon shall the day break and shadows all flee;
Soon shall we see Thine ineffable glory;
Light of the world, we are following Thee. |
