Lord Jesus, As Gathered Before Thee

Beloved, using all diligence to write to you of our common salvation, I have been obliged to write to you exhorting [you] to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints. Jude 1:3

If therefore one shall have purified himself from these, [in separating himself from them], he shall be a vessel to honour, sanctified, serviceable to the Master, prepared for every good work. But youthful lusts flee, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those that call upon the Lord out of a pure heart. 2 Timothy 2:21,22

  1. Matthew 18:20, 2 Thessalonians 2:1Lord Jesus, as gathered before Thee

    Matthew 18:18,19, Philippians 2:2Our thoughts and our hearts would combine

    Matthew 18:18,19, 2 Timothy 2:19To guard Thy great interests so holy,

    1 Peter 4:11, 2 Corinthians 3:18The glory and fame that are Thine:

    2 Timothy 2:7, Matthew 28:20Thy guidance and help we are needing,

    John 16:13, John 14:15-17Our words by the Spirit controlled,

    Acts 2:42, 1 Corinthians 14:40And thus we would now be proceeding -

    1 Corinthians 2:16O come, let Thy mind here unfold!

  2. Ephesians 6:12, John 12:35The darkness around we are feeling,

    Revelation 3:15,16, Matthew 24:12The love of the many grown cold,

    Ephesians 5:14, John 8:12O Lord, let Thy light, pure, revealing,

    Ephesians 5:14, Acts 8:32Shine forth as the truth now is told.

    Ephesians 5:26,27, Proverbs 31:11Thou art in th'assembly confiding,

    Ephesians 5:25-27, Colossians 1:18Her wifely affections so pure -

    Colossians 1:2,7, 2 Timothy 2:2May we be found faithful, abiding

    Romans 8:17, 2 Timothy 2:3In Thee, suff'rings here to endure!

  3. 2 Corinthians 6:14, 2 Timothy 2:15O Lord, grant the power of discernment,

    2 Corinthians 6:14, 2 Timothy 2:21Dividing 'twixt darkness and light,

    2 Timothy 2:19, 2 Timothy 4:2Refusing with holy resentment

    Ephesians 6:11, 2 Timothy 4:8Whatever may challenge Thy right.

    Matthew 24:45,46, 2 Timothy 2:2Thus faithfully would we be caring,

    Matthew 24:45,46, John 20:17Whilst Thou from this world art away,

    Revelation 3:21, 2 Timothy 2:12Until on Thy throne we are sharing

    Ephesians 1:22,23, 2 Timothy 2:12In headship in Thy coming day.
