O Jesus, Precious Saviour

In my Father's house there are many abodes; were it not so, I had told you: for I go to prepare you a place; and if I go and shall prepare you a place, I am coming again and shall receive you to myself, that where I am ye also may be. John 14:2,3

For *our* commonwealth has its existence in [the] heavens, from which also we await the Lord Jesus Christ [as] Saviour, who shall transform our body of humiliation into conformity to his body of glory, according to the working of [the] power which he has even to subdue all things to himself. Philippians 3:20,21

  1. 2 Timothy 4:8, 1 Peter 2:7O Jesus, precious Saviour,

    2 Timothy 4:8, Philippians 3:20,21O when wilt Thou return?

    John 16:20-22, Philippians 4:12Our hearts, with woe familiar,

    2 Timothy 2:21, Jude 1:4To Thee our Master turn.

  2. Hebrews 4:15Our woe is Thine, Lord Jesus;

    Philippians 4:4Our joy is in Thy love;

    Romans 8:35-39, 2 Corinthians 2:14But woe and joy all lead us

    1 Thessalonians 1:10, Colossians 3:1,2To Thee in heav'n above.

  3. Hebrews 2:8,9, 2 Corinthians 3:18To Thee we look, Lord Jesus,

    Ephesians 5:2, Ephesians 3:19To Thee whose love we know;

    Romans 8:23, Philippians 3:21We wait the power that frees us

    Romans 8:23, Philippians 3:21From bondage, sin and woe.

  4. 2 Timothy 4:8, Hebrews 9:28We look for Thine appearing,

    1 Corinthians 11:26, Psalms 98:9Thy presence here to bless;

    2 Peter 1:19, Zechariah 13:1We greet the day that's nearning,

    Revelation 21:4, 2 Timothy 4:18When all this woe shall cease.

  5. 1 Thessalonians 4:17, Philippians 3:20But O for us, blest Saviour,

    1 Thessalonians 4:17, Philippians 3:21How brighter far the lot,

    1 Thessalonians 4:17, Philippians 3:21To be with Thee for ever,

    Revelation 21:27, Revelation 21:4Where evil enters not!

  6. Ephesians 5:25, 1 John 3:2To see Thee who hast loved us,

    1 John 3:2, 1 Corinthians 13:12Then face to face above,

    2 Timothy 1:9, 2 Corinthians 8:9Whose grace at first had moved us

    1 Peter 2:3, 2 Thessalonians 2:16To taste and know Thy love!

  7. 1 Thessalonians 4:17, John 12:26With Thee, O Lord, for ever

    1 Thessalonians 4:17, 1 Thessalonians 4:18Our souls shall be content;

    Romans 8:35-39, Revelation 22:3Nor act, nor thought shall ever

    Romans 8:35-39, Revelation 19:7Full joy with Thee prevent.

  8. John 14:2,3, John 16:27Thy Father's perfect favour

    John 14:2,3, 1 John 4:16Our dwelling place shall be;

    Revelation 21:10, 2 Corinthians 4:6And all His glory ever

    2 Corinthians 4:6Shine forth on us through Thee.

  9. Revelation 22:20, John 14:3O come then soon, Lord Jesus,

    Romans 8:25, 2 Thessalonians 3:5In patience still we wait -

    Philippians 3:21, 1 Corinthians 15:52,53Await the power that frees us -

    Ephesians 2:6,7, Revelation 4:4Our longed-for heav'nly seat.
