Luke 4:34

• [Luk 4:34] We Know Thee Who Thou Art

  We know Thee Who Thou art, Lord Jesus, Mary’s Son; We know the yearnings of Thy heart To end Thy work begun. That sacred Fount of grace, ’Mid all the bliss of Heaven, Has joy whene’er we seek Thy face, And kneel to be forgiven. Brought home from ways perverse, At peace Thine arms within, We pray Thee, shield us from the curse Of falling back to sin. We dare not ask to live Henceforth from trials free; But oh! when next they tempt us, give More strength to cling to Thee. We know Thee Who Thou art, Our own redeeming Lord; Be Thou by will, and mind, and heart, Accepted, loved, adored.

Luke 12:24

• [Luk 12:24] If Birds That Neither Sow Nor Reap

  If birds that neither sow nor reap Nor store up any food Constantly find to them and theirs A Maker kind and good; If man provide eke for his birds, In yard, in coops, in cage; And each bird spends in songs and tunes, His little time and age; What care will man, what care will God For wife and children take? Millions of birds and worlds will God Sooner than His forsake.

Luke 12:39

• [Luk 12:39] While Life Prolongs Its Precious Light

  While life prolongs its precious light, Mercy is found, and peace is given; But soon, ah soon, approaching night Shall blot out every hope of heaven. While God invites, how blest the day! How sweet the Gospel’s charming sound! Come sinners, haste, O haste away, While yet a pardoning God is found. Soon, borne on time’s most rapid wing Shall death command you to the grave, Before His bar your spirits bring, And none be found to hear or save. And in that land of deep despair No Sabbath’s heavenly light shall rise, No God regard your bitter prayer, No Savior call you to the skies. No wonders to the dead are shown, The wonders of redeeming love; No voice His glorious truth makes known, Nor sings the bliss of climes above. Silence, and solitude, and gloom, In those forgetful realms appear: Deep sorrows fill the dismal tomb, And hope shall never enter there.

Luke 15:6

• [Luk 15:6] ’twas A Glad Day When Jesus Found Me

  I was lost in sin when Jesus found me, But He rescued me, all glory to His Name! And the cords of worldly pleasure bound me, Till He saved me from sin and shame. Refrain ’Twas a glad day when Jesus found me, When His strong arms were thrown around me; When my sins He buried in the deepest sea, And my soul He filled with joy and victory. ’Twas a glad day, O hallelujah! ’Twas a glad day He claimed His own. I will shout a glad hosanna in glory When I see Him upon His throne. O the bells of heaven now are ringing, For I hear their tones within my ransomed soul; And my heart is filled with joyful singing Since the Savior has made me whole. Refrain O the joy when we shall meet in glory, In the mansions of my Father’s home above; And through endless ages tell the story Of the Savior’s redeeming love. Refrain

• [Luk 15:18] Last Prayer, A

  Father, I scarcely dare to pray, So clear I see, now it is done, How I have wasted half my day, And left my work but just begun. So clear I see that things I thought Were right or harmless were a sin; So clear I see that I have sought, Unconscious, selfish aims to win. So clear I see that I have hurt The souls I might have helped to save; That I have slothful been, inert, Deaf to the calls Thy leaders gave. In outskirts of Thy kingdoms vast Father, the humblest spot give me; Set me the lowliest task Thou hast, Let me repentant work for Thee.

  Lord, to Thee I make confession; I have sinned and gone astray, I have multiplied transgression, Chosen for myself my way. Led by Thee to see my errors, Lord, I tremble at Thy terrors.

Do not for my sins forsake me; Do not let Thy wrath o’ertake me.

Lonely I no longer roam Like the cloud, the wind, the wave; Where you dwell shall be my home, Where you die shall be my grave; Mine the God Whom you adore; Your Redeemer shall be mine; Earth can fill my soul no more— Every idol I resign.

Refrain Back to my Father and home, Back to my Father and home, I will arise and go Back to my Father and home. Why should I perish in dark despair, Here where there’s no one to help or care, When there is shelter and food to spare?

Refrain Sweet are the memories that come to me, Faces of loved ones again I see, Visions of home where I used to be, I will arise and go; Others have gone who had wandered, too, They were forgiven, were clothed anew, Why should I linger with home in view? I will arise and go. Refrain O that I never had gone astray! Life was all radiant with hope one day, Now all its treasures I’ve thrown away, Yet I’ll arise and go; Something is saying, “God loves you still, Tho’ you have treated His love so ill,” I must not wait, for the night grows chill, I will arise and go.

  O great God of nations, revive us, we pray, Raise prodigal hearts to contrition today; In pride have we turned from Your life giving Word, Embracing the darkness while truth goes unheard. Create deep within us a clean heart today, Renew a right spirit, and teach us to say: Awaken, my soul, and send anthems above, To Him Who is yearning to bless you in love. Forsake not Your people though far we do roam, As hedonists, spendthrifts, abandoning home; But finally, throwing our folly aside, We see You are waiting with arms open wide. We plead Your forgiveness, our Father, we pray, O heal prideful blindness and teach us to say: How mighty the love that can conquer our sin, And open the door to the banquet within. In faith and in gratitude, then, must we share The good news of Jesus with lands everywhere, With peoples still groping and stumbling in night; For them You command us to send out the light. To shout from the rooftops, proclaim o’er the wave, That Christ has redeemed from the depths of the grave: Pour out, then, Your Spirit, afresh in this hour, Enable our tongues to speak out with Your power.

  Faith is a living power from Heaven That grasps the promise God hath given, A trust that cannot be o’erthrown, Fixed heartily on Christ alone. Faith finds in Christ whate’er we need To save or strengthen us indeed, Receives the grace He sends us down, And makes us share His cross and crown. Faith in the conscience worketh peace, And bids the mourner’s weeping cease; By faith the children’s place we claim, And give all honor to one Name. Faith feels the Spirit’s kindling breath In love and hope that conquer death; Faith worketh hourly joy in God, And trusts and blesses e’en the rod. We thank Thee then, O God of Heaven, That Thou to us this faith hast given In Jesus Christ Thy Son, who is Our only fount and source of bliss. And from His fullness grant each soul The rightful faith’s true end and goal, The blessedness no foes destroy, Eternal love and light and joy.
