1 Peter 1:5-7

• [1Pe 1:5] Kept For Jesus

  Oh, to be “Kept for Jesus!” Kept, by the power of God; Kept from the world unspotted, Treading where Jesus trod. Refrain Oh, to be “Kept for Jesus!” Lord, at Thy feet I fall; I would be “nothing, nothing, nothing”; Thou shall be “all in all.” Oh, to be “Kept for Jesus!” Serving as He shall choose; “Kept” for the Master’s pleasure; “Kept” for the Master’s use. Refrain Oh, to be “Kept for Jesus!” Kept from the world apart; Lowly in mind and spirit, Gentle and pure in heart. Refrain Oh, to be “Kept for Jesus!” Oh, to be all His own; Kept, to be His forever, Kept, to be His alone! Refrain

1 Peter 1:9-10

• [1Pe 1:10] All Hail To Thee, O Blessed Morn!

  All hail to thee, O blessèd morn! To tidings long by prophets borne Hast thou fulfillment given. O sacred and immortal day, When unto earth, in glorious ray, Descends the grace of Heaven! Singing, ringing, sounds are blending, Praises sending unto Heaven For the Savior to us given. ’Tis God’s own Image and withal, The Son of Man, that mortals all May find in Him a Brother. He comes, with peace and love to bide On earth, the erring race to guide And help as could no other; Rather gather closer, fonder, Sheep that wander, feed and fold them, Than let evil powers hold them. He tears, like other men, will shed, Our sorrows share, and be our aid, Through His eternal power; The Lord’s good will unto us show, And mingle in our cup of woe The drops of mercy’s shower; Dying, buying through His passion Our salvation and to mortals Opening the heavenly portals. He comes, for our redemption sent, And by His glory Heaven is rent To close upon us never; Our blessèd Shepherd He would be, Whom we may follow faithfully And be with Him forever; Higher, nigher glory winging, Praises singing to the Father And His Son, our Lord and Savior.

• [1Pe 1:10] Hasten The Time Appointed

  Hasten the time appointed, By prophets long foretold When all shall dwell together, One Shepherd and one fold. Let every idol perish, To moles and bats be thrown And every prayer be offered To God in Christ alone. Let Jew and Gentile, meeting From many a distant shore Around one altar kneeling, One common Lord adore. Let all that now divides us Remove and pass away, Like shadows of the morning Before the blaze of day. Let all that now unites us More sweet and lasting prove A closer bond of union, In a blest land of love. Let war be learned no longer, Let strife and tumult cease, All earth His blessèd kingdom The Lord and Prince of Peace. O long expected dawning, Come with thy cheering ray! When shall the morning brighten, The shadows flee away? O sweet anticipation! It cheers the watchers on To pray, and hope, and labor, Till the dark night be gone.
