Matthew 8:11

• [Mat 8:11] From North And South And East And West

  From north and south and east and west, When shall the peoples, long unblest, All find their everlasting rest, O Christ, in Thee? When shall the climes of ageless snow Be with the Gospel light aglow, And all men their Redeemer know, O Christ, in Thee? When on each southern balmy coast, Shall ransomed men, in countless host, Rise, heart and voice, to make sweet boast, O Christ, in Thee? O when in all the Orient lands, From cities white, and flaming sands, Shall men lift dedicated hands, O Christ, in Thee? O when shall heathen darkness roll Away in light, from pole to pole, And endless day by every soul Be found in Thee? Bring, Lord, the long predicted hour, The ages’ diadem and flower, When all shall find their refuge, tower, And home in Thee!

• [Mat 8:11] Full Many Shall Come

  Full many shall come from the east and the west And sit at the feast of salvation, With Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob the blest, Obeying the Lord’s invitation. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! But they who have always resisted His grace And on their own virtue depended Shall then be condemned and cast out from His face, Eternally lost and unfriended. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! May we too give heed when our Savior doth call In accents persuasive and tender, And may we be guests at His feast, one and all, Our praise and obeisance to render. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! Oh, that we the throng of the ransomed may swell, To whom He hath granted remission! God graciously make us in heaven to dwell And save us from endless perdition. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! God grant that I may of His infinite love Remain in His merciful keeping And sit with the King at His table above When here in the grave I am sleeping. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! Then ended will be, like a dream that is past, All trial and trouble and sorrow; All questions and doubts will be answered at last, When dawneth eternity’s morrow. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus! Then Heaven will ring with an anthem more grand Than ever on earth was recorded, When all of the saved shall receive at His hand The crown to the victors awarded. Have mercy upon us, O Jesus!

• [Mat 8:11] Gather Us In, Thou Love That Fillest All

  Gather us in, Thou Love that fillest all; Gather our rival faiths within Thy fold; Rend each man’s temple veil, and bid it fall, That we may know that Thou hast been of old. Gather us in—we worship only Thee; In varied names we stretch a common hand; In diverse forms a common soul we see; In many ships we seek one spirit land. Each sees one color of Thy rainbow light, Each looks upon one tint and calls it heaven; Thou art the fullness of our partial sight; We are not perfect till we find the seven. Thine is the mystic life great India craves; Thine is the Parsee’s sin-destroying beam; Thine is the Buddhist’s rest from tossing waves; Thine is the empire of vast China’s dream. Thine is the Roman’s strength without his pride; Thine is the Greek’s glad world without its graves; Thine is Judea’s law with love beside, The truth that censures and the grace that saves. Some seek a Father in the heav’ns above; Some ask a human image to adore; Some crave a spirit vast as life and love; Within Thy mansions we have all and more.

• [Mat 11:29] Come Unto Me (peterson)

  O weary one, weighed down by care, Come unto Me and rest. Cast all your burdens at My feet, And you will be refreshed. Come unto Me, come unto Me, For I am meek in heart. Take up My yoke and learn from Me, And let your cares depart. Come claim My strength, you faint in heart And you who have no might. I am the everlasting God; Through Me you can take flight. Mount up, mount up on eagles’ wings, Soar upward to the sky. Draw from My reservoir of power, A limitless supply. I am the Vine, you’re just a branch; You must remain in Me. Apart from Me you’ll bear no fruit; Your life will empty be. Remain in Me, remain in Me, And I’ll remain in you. By this will God be glorified; You’ll be My follower true. And never tire of doing good; Someday there’ll be reward. For at the proper time you’ll reap A harvest for your Lord. So don’t give up, don’t e’er give up, Do good to all mankind. Especially love God’s family and Eternal life you’ll find.

• [Mat 11:29] God’s Glory Is A Wondrous Thing

  God’s glory is a wondrous thing, Most strange in all its ways; And, of all things on earth, least like What men agree to praise. Workman of God, O lose not heart, But learn what God is like! And, in the darkest battlefield, Thou shalt know where to strike. O blest is he to whom is given The instinct that can tell That God is on the field when He Is most invisible! Blest too is he who can divine Where real right doth lie, And dares to take the side that seems Wrong to man’s blindfold eye. For right is right, since God is God; And right the day must win; To doubt would be disloyalty, To falter would be sin.

In all their erring, sinful years, Oh, let them ne’er forgotten be; Remember all the prayers and tears Which made them consecrate to Thee.

  There were ninety and nine that safely lay In the shelter of the fold. But one was out on the hills away, Far off from the gates of gold. Away on the mountains wild and bare. Away from the tender Shepherd’s care. Away from the tender Shepherd’s care. “Lord, Thou hast here Thy ninety and nine; Are they not enough for Thee?” But the Shepherd made answer: “This of Mine Has wandered away from Me; And although the road be rough and steep, I go to the desert to find My sheep, I go to the desert to find My sheep.” But none of the ransomed ever knew How deep were the waters crossed; Nor how dark was the night the Lord passed through Ere He found His sheep that was lost. Out in the desert He heard its cry, Sick and helpless and ready to die; Sick and helpless and ready to die. “Lord, whence are those blood drops all the way That mark out the mountain’s track?” “They were shed for one who had gone astray Ere the Shepherd could bring him back.” “Lord, whence are Thy hands so rent and torn?” “They are pierced tonight by many a thorn; They are pierced tonight by many a thorn.” And all through the mountains, thunder riven And up from the rocky steep, There arose a glad cry to the gate of Heaven, “Rejoice! I have found My sheep!” And the angels echoed around the throne, “Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His own! Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His own!”

Since you have been forgiven With them in peace now live. Go first to find your brother, Your sister or your friend. Do not reveal to others The hurt you need to mend. Confront in humble spirit The one whose sin caused pain That he might seek forgiveness And you a friend regain.

  God of the living, in Whose eyes Unveiled Thy whole creation lies, All souls are Thine, we must not say That those are dead who pass away; From this our world of flesh set free, We know them living unto Thee. Released from earthly toil and strife, With Thee is hidden still their life; Thine are their thoughts, their works, their powers, All Thine, and yet most truly ours; For well we know, where’er they be, Our dead are living unto Thee. Not spilt like water on the ground, Not wrapped in dreamless sleep profound, Not wandering in unknown despair, Beyond Thy voice, Thine Arm, Thy care; Not left to lie like fallen tree— Not dead, but living, unto Thee. Thy Word is true, Thy will is just; To Thee we leave them, Lord, in trust; And bless Thee for the love which gave Thy Son to fill a human grave; That none might fear that world to see Where all are living unto Thee. O Breather into man of breath, O Holder of the keys of death, O Giver of the life within, Save us from death, the death of sin, That body, soul, and spirit be Forever living unto Thee.

• [Mat 26:74] When Peter Boasted, Soon He Fell

  When Peter boasted, soon he fell, Yet was by grace restored; His case should be regarded well By all who fear the Lord. A voice it has, and helping hand, Backsliders to recall; And cautions those who think they stand, Lest suddenly they fall. He said, “Whatever others do, With Jesus I’ll abide;” Yet soon amidst a murd’rous crew His suff’ring Lord denied. He who had been so bold before, Now trembled like a leaf; Not only lied, but cursed and swore, To gain the more belief. While he blasphemed he heard the cock, And Jesus looked in love; At once, as if by lightning struck, His tongue forbore to move. Delivered thus from Satan’s snare He starts, as from a sleep; His Savior’s look he could not bear, But hasted forth to weep. But sure the faithful cock had crowed A hundred times in vain; Had not the Lord that look bestowed, The meaning to explain. As I, like Peter, vows have made, Yet acted Peter’s part; So conscience, like the cock, upbraids My base, ungrateful heart. Lord Jesus, hear a sinner’s cry, My broken peace renew; And grant one pitying look, that I May weep with Peter too.
