Far Fairer

Read:  Psalm 45 / Proverbs 27 / Numbers 30 / 1 Tim. 4

 

Psalm 45:2-11 Thou art fairer than the children of men…  Hearken… Incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him.

Proverbs 27:11 My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.

Numbers 30:2 If a man vow a vow unto the LORD… he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth.

1 Timothy 4:16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.

 

The greatest heroes earth can call

Cannot compare with Christ our Lord. 

He is far fairer than them all

In every time and place explored.

 

His heart is glad when we are wise;

What tender care!  What wondrous love!

Let us be done with compromise

And set our hearts on Christ above.
