Matthew 1:21

• [Mat 1:21] I Know Of A Name

  I know of a name, a beautiful name, That angels brought down to earth; They whispered it low, one night long ago, To a maiden of lowly birth. Refrain That beautiful name, that beautiful name, From sin has power to free us! That beautiful name, that wonderful name, That matchless name is Jesus! I know of a name, a beautiful name, That unto a Babe was given. The stars glittered bright throughout that glad night, And angels praised God in Heav’n. Refrain The One of that name, my Savior became, My Savior of Calvary. My sins nailed Him there; my burdens He bare. He suffered all this for me. Refrain I love that blest name, that wonderful name, Made higher than all in Heaven. ’Twas whispered, I know, in my heart long ago To Jesus my life I’ve giv’n. Refrain

Matthew 4:23

• [Mat 4:23] Galilee, Bright Galilee

  Galilee, bright Galilee, Hallowed thoughts we turn to thee! Woven through thy history, Gleams the charming mystery Of the life of One Who came, Bearing grief, reproach and shame, Savior of the world to be; “God with us” by Galilee. Once along that rugged shore He, who all our sorrows bore, Journeyed oft with weary feet, Through the storm or burning heat; Healing all who came in faith, Calling back to life from death; King of kings from heaven was He, Though so poor by Galilee! Wild the night on Galilee; Loudly roared the angry sea, When upon the tossing wave Jesus walked, His own to save: Calmed the tumult by His will, Only saying, “Peace, be still!” Ruler of the storm was He, On the raging Galilee! Still in loving tenderness Doth the Master wait to bless; Still His touch upon the soul Bringeth balm and maketh whole; Still He comforts mourning hearts, Life, and joy, and peace imparts; Still the Friend of all is He, As of old by Galilee!

Matthew 25:1

• [Mat 25:1] Behold The Bridegroom Draweth Nigh

  “Behold, the Bridegroom draweth nigh” Hear ye the oft repeated cry? Go forth into the midnight dim; For blest are they whom He shall find With ready heart and watchful mind; Go forth, my soul, to Him. “Behold, the Bridegroom cometh by,” The call is echoed from the sky: Go forth, ye servants, watch and wait: The slothful cannot join His train; No careless ones can entrance gain; Awake, my soul, ’tis late. The wise will plead with one accord, “O holy, holy, holy Lord, On us Thy quick’ning grace bestow, That none may reach the door too late, When Thou shalt enter at the gate And to Thy kingdom go.” “Behold, the Bridegroom draweth near,” The warning falls on every ear: That night of dread shall come to all: Behold, my soul, thy lamp so dim, Rise, rise the smoking flax to trim; Soon shalt thou hear His call.

• [Mat 25:1] Lamps Trimmed And Burning

  Let your lamps be trimmed and burning, Lest your feet may go astray! If you are the Lord’s disciple, Unto sinners show the way! Refrain We’ll go out with joy to meet Him, We’ll go out with joy to meet Him, At the midnight hour; If our lamps are trimmed and burning, When He cometh, when He cometh, At the midnight hour!

Refrain Let your lamps be trimmed and burning, Burning for eternity! Ready for the Lord’s appearing, Whensoever it may be!

• [Mat 25:1] Ten Virgins, The

  Once, forth to meet the bridegroom, At night ten virgins went; Five lamps were trimmed for burning, In five the oil was spent, And while they slept and slumbered, At midnight rose the shout Behold the bridegroom cometh, To meet him go ye out. Refrain Watch ye, therefore, watch I say, Watch ye, therefore, watch and pray; Ye know not the hour, ye know not the day The Son of Man may come. Then all the foolish virgins Their need began to tell; And all the wise ones answered, Go ye to them that sell. The foolish virgins hastened, In darkness, fear, and shame, The wise ones ready waited, And lo the bridegroom came! Refrain Lord, Lord, unto us open, The foolish virgins cried; “I know ye not,” unto them The bridegroom’s voice replied. O Christians, learn the lesson, Your lamps be wise and trim, And when the Bridegroom cometh, Go gladly in with Him. Refrain

• [Mat 25:1] When Descending From The Sky

  When descending from the sky The Bridegroom shall appear; And the solemn midnight cry, Shall call professors near: How the sound our hearts will damp! How will shame o’erspread each face! If we only have a lamp, Without the oil of grace. Foolish virgins then will wake And seek for a supply; But in vain the pains they take To borrow or to buy: Then with those they now despise, Earnestly they’ll wish to share; But the best, among the wise, Will have no oil to spare. Wise are they, and truly blest, Who then shall ready be But despair will seize the rest, And dreadful misery: Once, they’ll cry, we scorned to doubt, Though in lies our trust we put; Now our lamp of hope is out, The door of mercy shut. If they then presume to plead, “Lord open to us now; We on earth have heard and prayed, And with thy saints did bow:” He will answer from his throne, “Though you with My people mixed, Yet to Me you ne’er were known, Depart, your doom is fixed.” O that none who worship here May hear that word, Depart! Lord impress a godly fear On each professor’s heart: Help us, Lord, to search the camp, Let us not ourselves beguile; Trusting to a dying lamp Without a stock of oil.
