Matthew 19:6

• [Mat 19:6] O Perfect Love

  O perfect Love, all human thought transcending, Lowly we kneel in prayer before Thy throne, That theirs may be the love which knows no ending, Whom Thou forevermore dost join in one. O perfect Life, be Thou their full assurance, Of tender charity and steadfast faith, Of patient hope and quiet, brave endurance, With childlike trust that fears nor pain nor death. Grant them the joy which brightens earthly sorrow; Grant them the peace which calms all earthly strife, And to life’s day the glorious unknown morrow That dawns upon eternal love and life. Hear us, O Father, gracious and forgiving, Through Jesus Christ, Thy coeternal Word, Who, with the Holy Ghost, by all things living Now and to endless ages art adored.

Matthew 26:41

• [Mat 26:41] Christian! Seek Not Yet Repose

  Christian! seek not yet repose, Hear thy guardian angel say; Thou art in the midst of foes; “Watch and pray.” Principalities and powers, Mustering their unseen array, Wait for thy unguarded hours; “Watch and pray.” Gird thy heavenly armor on, Wear it ever night and day; Ambushed lies the evil one; “Watch and pray.” Hear the victors who o’ercame; Still they mark each warrior’s way; All with one clear voice exclaim, “Watch and pray.” Hear, above all, hear thy Lord, Him thou lovest to obey; Hide within thy heart His Word, “Watch and pray.” Watch, as if on that alone Hung the issue of the day; Pray that help may be sent down; “Watch and pray.”

• [Mat 26:41] Rise, My Soul, To Watch And Pray

  Rise, my soul, to watch and pray, from thy sleep awaken; Be not by the evil day unawares be taken. For the foe, well we know, oft his harvest reapeth, While the Christian sleepeth. Watch against the devil’s snares lest asleep he find thee; For indeed no pains he spares to deceive and blind thee. Satan’s prey oft are they who secure are sleeping And no watch are keeping. Watch! Let not the wicked world with its power defeat thee. Watch lest with her pomp unfurled she betray and cheat thee. Watch and see lest there be faithless friends to charm thee, Who but seek to harm thee. Watch against thyself, my soul, lest with grace thou trifle; Let not self thy thoughts control nor God’s mercy stifle. Pride and sin lurk within all thy hopes to scatter; Heed not when they flatter. But while watching, also pray to the Lord unceasing, He will free thee, be thy Stay, strength and faith increasing. O Lord, bless in distress and let nothing swerve me From the will to serve Thee.

• [Mat 26:41] Yield Not To Temptation

  Yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin; Each victory will help you some other to win; Fight manfully onward, dark passions subdue, Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through. Refrain Ask the Savior to help you, Comfort, strengthen and keep you; He is willing to aid you, He will carry you through. Shun evil companions, bad language disdain, God’s Name hold in reverence, nor take it in vain; Be thoughtful and earnest, kindhearted and true, Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through. Refrain To him that o’ercometh, God giveth a crown; Through faith we shall conquer, though often cast down; He Who is our Savior our strength will renew; Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through. Refrain
