Come To See our Cause To Sing

Read:  Psalm 13 / Proverbs 2 / Job 21 / Revelation 6

 

Psalm 13:6 ~ I will sing unto the LORD, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.

Proverbs 2:6 ~ For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.

Job 21:22 ~ Shall any teach God knowledge? seeing he judgeth those that are high.

Revelation 6:1 ~ And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals… saying, Come and see.

 

Now come to see our cause to sing

With all whom Jesus died to save,  

For He removed the deadly sting

That waited for us in the grave. 

 

We have cause for celebration! 

“Come, see the place,” as angels said,

Where He who died for our salvation

Is raised, as promised, from the dead!

Beauty of the Book

Read:  Psalm 12 / Proverbs 1 / Job 20 / Revelation 5

 

Psalm 12:6,7 ~ The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation forever.

Proverbs 1:33 ~ But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.

Job 20:20,29 ~ Surely he shall not feel quietness… which he desired… This is the portion of a wicked man from God.

Revelation 5:5 ~ Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book.

 

Behold the beauty of the Book

Preserved by God forevermore.

Within its pages we may look

Upon the Savior we adore.

 

This Book in times of deep distress

Holds promises that cannot fail,

And therefore we find quietness,

Assured that Jesus shall prevail.

Trust and Tell

Read:  Psalm 11 / Proverbs 31 / Job 19 / Revelation 4

 

Psalm 11:1 ~ In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?

Proverbs 31:8 ~ Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.

Job 19:25 ~ For I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth.

Revelation 4:1 ~ After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice… said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.

 

In God alone I put my trust:

Why should I flee, then, as a bird?

I’m called to tell, and tell I must,

The Gospel truth that I have heard.

 

I know that my Redeemer lives

And that He’ll come again to reign.

I will redeem the time He gives

To make His Gospel message plain.

Humble Hearts

Read:  Psalm 10 / Proverbs 30 / Job 18 / Revelation 3

 

Psalm 10:17 ~ LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear.

Proverbs 30:5 ~ Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

Job 18:18,21 ~ He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world... this is the place of him that knoweth not God.

Revelation 3:20 ~ Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

 

The Lord inclines His ear to hear

The cry of humble hearts He’s drawn

To call on Him while He is near

When every other hope is gone. 

 

His light is shining in this place,

Which some have chosen to ignore,

Yet still the Lord extends His grace:

Behold, He’s standing at the door!

Still Stronger

Read:  Psalm 9 / Proverbs 29 / Job 17 / Revelation 2

 

Psalm 9:10 ~ And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

Proverbs 29:25 ~ The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.

Job 17:8 ~ The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.

Revelation 2:4 ~ Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.

 

All those who know Christ’s reputation

And call upon His precious name

Shall find their refuge in salvation,

A hiding place from sin and shame.

 

Now as we look at Christ above

Who blesses us who once were cursed,

Should not our hearts yet burn with love

Which grows still stronger than at first?

Christ is Crowned

Read:  Psalm 8 / Proverbs 28 / Job 16 / Revelation 1

 

Psalm 8:5 ~ For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honor.

Proverbs 28:5 ~ Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things.

Job 16:10 ~ They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me.

Revelation 1:5 ~ Jesus Christ… the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth...  loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood.

 

Christ set aside His outward splendor

To thus accomplish our salvation.

He came to die as our Defender

And now is crowned with exaltation.

 

Behold the Lamb for sinners smitten,

The First Begotten from the dead!

He purged our sins, as it was written,

When He was wounded in our stead.

Consolations of Christ

Read:  Psalm 7 / Proverbs 27 / Job 15 / Jude 24,25

 

Psalm 7:10 ~ My defense is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.

Proverbs 27:12 ~ A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.

Job 15:11 ~ Are the consolations of God small with thee?

Jude 24,25 ~ Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Savior, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

 

How great the consolations are

From God who is our Hiding Place!

We know the Lord is never far

From those who humbly seek His face. 

 

These consolations are not small

That Christ so graciously extends,

For Jesus bore the sins of all,

And those who trust Him, He defends.
