Lord of Life and Love

Read:  Psalm 133 / Proverbs 7 / Ezekiel 41 / James 4

 

Psalm 133:1-3 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!...  It is like the precious ointment upon Aaron's beard... to the skirts of his garments... for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

Proverbs 7:2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.

Ezekiel 41:18-19 Every cherub had two faces; so that the face of a man was toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side: it was made through all the house round about.

James 4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

 

Behold, how good it is to feast

With those who think on things above,

Exalting Christ, our great High Priest,

The Lord of life, the Lord of love! 

 

Behold the Man, the King of kings,

The Lion out of Judah’s line!

Our hearts are fixed upon these things

And purified by love divine!
