Nought Is Detaining Us

Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenlies in Christ; Ephesians 1:3

Husbands, love your own wives, even as the Christ also loved the assembly, and has delivered himself up for it, Ephesians 5:25

  1. Ephesians 1:3, Hebrews 12:1Nought is detaining us,

    2 Corinthians 5:16,17, Philippians 3:20Lord, in earth's sphere;

    2 Corinthians 5:14, Hebrews 2:11Thy love constraining us,

    Hebrews 10:22, Hebrews 3:14We have drawn near.

    Ephesians 5:25, Ephesians 3:19Thou hast this love expressed,

    Isaiah 34:17, Luke 15:22Now in Thy beauty dressed

    Song of Songs 2:3, Hebrews 4:11We can be found at rest

    Philippians 4:4, Ephesians 5:19Joyfully here.

  2. John 17:24, Hebrews 2:12Lord, Thy desire we know

    1 Corinthians 2:13, John 14:26As Spirit-taught;

    Ephesians 3:19, Revelation 3:9That love which Thou dost show

    Matthew 13:45,46, Revelation 3:12Finds what it sought!

    Philippians 3:12, Song of Songs 6:12Our heart Thyself enthrones;

    1 Corinthians 15:48, 1 Corinthians 15:49Hark to the heav'nly tones!

    Ephesians 5:30, Genesis 2:23We, of Thy flesh and bones -

    Ephesians 5:32, Genesis 2:23O what a thought!

  3. 2 Corinthians 11:2, 2 Corinthians 5:9Lord, in this vessel chaste

    John 12:3, 2 Corinthians 2:15Incense is found;

    Genesis 2:22,23, Song of Songs 7:13All that delights Thy taste

    Genesis 2:23,24, Song of Songs 7:13Doth here abound.

    John 3:29, Matthew 25:6Thou, Lord, the bridegroom art!

    Ephesians 3:19, 2 Corinthians 11:2Now from the loving heart

    Ephesians 1:22,23, Genesis 2:18Of Thy blest counterpart

    Ephesians 5:19,20, Ephesians 1:14Praises resound.
