2 Corinthians 3:3

• [2Co 3:3] O Spirit Of The Living God (montgomery)

  O Spirit of the living God, In all Thy plenitude of grace, Where’er the foot of man hath trod, Descend on our apostate race. Give tongues of fire and hearts of love To preach the reconciling Word, Give power and unction from above, Whene’er the joyful sound is heard. Be darkness, at Thy coming, light; Confusion, order in Thy path; Souls without strength inspire with might; Bid mercy triumph over wrath. O Spirit of the Lord, prepare All the round earth her God to meet; Breathe Thou abroad like morning air, Till hearts of stone begin to beat. Baptize the nations; far and nigh The triumphs of the cross record; The Name of Jesus glorify, Till every kindred call Him Lord. God from eternity hath willed All flesh shall His salvation see: So be the Father’s love fulfilled, The Savior’s sufferings crowned through Thee.

2 Corinthians 3:6

• [2Co 3:6] Whether The Word Be Preached Or Read

  Whether the Word be preached or read, No saving benefit I gain From empty sounds or letters dead; Unprofitable all and vain, Unless by faith Thy Word I hear And see its heavenly character. Unmixed with faith, the Scripture gives No comfort, life, or light to see, But me in darker darkness leaves, Implunged in deeper misery, Overwhelmed with nature’s sorest ills, The Spirit saves, the letter kills. If God enlighten through His Word, I shall my kind Enlightener bless; But void and naked of my Lord, What are all verbal promises? Nothing to me, till faith divine Inspire, inspeak, and make them mine. Jesus, the appropriating grace ’Tis Thine on sinners to bestow. Open mine eyes to see Thy face, Open my heart Thyself to know. And then I through Thy Word obtain Sure present, and eternal gain.

2 Corinthians 4:18

• [2Co 4:18] O Holy Savior, Friend Unseen

  O holy Savior, Friend unseen, The faint, the weak on Thee may lean, Help me, throughout life’s varying scene, By faith to cling to Thee. Blessed with this fellowship divine, Take what Thou wilt, I’ll ne’er repine; E’en as the branches to the vine, My soul would cling to Thee. Far from her home, fatigued, oppressed, Here she has found her place of rest An exile still, yet not unblest, While she can cling to Thee. What though the world deceitful prove, And earthly friends and joys remove, With patient, uncomplaining love Still would I cling to Thee. Though faith and hope may long be tried, I ask not, need not aught beside; How safe, how calm, how satisfied, The souls that cling to Thee! Blessed is my lot, whate’er befall; What can disturb me, who appall, While as my Strength, my Rock, my All, All, Savior, I cling to Thee!

• [2Co 13:4] I’m Going There

  There is a land of wondrous beauty, Where the “Living Waters” flow, The Word of God to all has said it, And it surely must be so.

Refrain I’ve loved ones there who passed before me, They’ll rejoice to see me come, But best of all, I’ll see my Savior, Who will bid me “Welcome home.” Refrain

• [2Co 13:4] Jesus Lives

  Jesus lives! From riven tomb He arose, triumphant, glorious! Now hath He indeed become By His death for aye victorious, Lightnings flash, the earth is heaving; Rent the grave! The Lord is living! Christ arose! His victory’s mine! He from death can sure deliver, Whom the grave could not confine, ’Tis my peace and comfort ever. Open waits me heaven’s portal; He arose with life immortal. Jesus lives! No longer death With its terrors can appall me; I approach my tomb with faith, There to rest till He shall call me. On this truth my hope I anchor, Jesus lives! and I shall conquer.
