Luke 1:14

• [Luk 1:14] In Thee Is Gladness

  In Thee is gladness, amid all sadness, Jesus, sunshine of my heart. By Thee are given the gifts of Heaven, Thou the true Redeemer art. Our souls Thou makest, our bonds Thou breakest; Who trusts Thee surely hath built securely, And stands forever. Alleluia! If God be ours, we fear no powers, Not of earth or sin or death. God sees and blesses in worst distresses, And can change them in a breath. Wherefore the story tell of God’s glory With heart and voices; all Heaven rejoices, Singing forever: Alleluia!

Luke 4:32

• [Luk 4:32] His Word Was With Power

  There’s pow’r, mighty pow’r in the word of the King; He speaks, and the captive is free; The lips of the dumb with rejoicing shall sing; O speak, blessèd Savior, to me! Refrain O the pow’r, mighty pow’r, In the word of my Savior and King! O the pow’r, mighty pow’r! For Jesus salvation shall bring. There’s pow’r, mighty pow’r in the pardoning word; He said, “Go, and sin now no more!” How sweet was the hour when forgiveness I heard, And mercy had opened the door! Refrain There’s pow’r, mighty pow’r in the word of the Lord, And strength He will give, when we pray, To follow His footsteps, His goodness record, And walk in love’s beautiful way. Refrain

Luke 16:20

• [Luk 16:20] Dives And Lazarus

  As it fell out upon one day, Rich Divès made a feast, And he invited all his friends, And gentry of the best. Then Lazarus laid him down and down And down at Divès’ door: “Some meat and drink, brother, Diverus, Bestow upon the poor.” “Thou’rt none of my brothers, Lazarus, That liest begging at my door; No meat, nor drink will I give thee, Nor bestow upon the poor.” Then Lazarus laid him down and down, All under Divès’ wall: “Some meat, some drink, brother Diverus, For hunger starve I shall.” “Thou’rt none of my brothers, Lazarus, That liest begging at my gate; No meat, no drink will I give thee, For Jesus Christ His sake.” Then Divès sent out his hungry dogs, To bite him as he lay; They hadn’t the power to bite one bite, But licked his sores away. Then Divès sent to his merry men, To worry poor Lazarus away; They’d not the power to strike one stroke, But flung their whips away. As it fell out upon one day, Poor Lazarus sickened and died; There came two angels out of heaven, His soul therein to guide. “Rise up! rise up! brother Lazarus, And go along with me; For you’ve a place prepared in heaven, To sit on an angel’s knee.” As it fell out upon one day, Rich Divès sickened and died; There came two serpents out of hell, His soul therein to guide. “Rise up! rise up! brother Diverus, And come along with me; There is a place provided in hell For wicked men like thee.” Then Divès looked up with his eyes And saw poor Lazarus blest; “Give me one drop of water, brother Lazarus, To quench my flaming thirst.” “O, was I now but alive again The space of one half hour! O, that I had my peace again Then the devil should have no power.”
