3 Wed.
(Exodus 8. 1-15; Acts 2. 14-28; Psalm 53)
My tongue shall tell of your righteousness and of your praise all day long. Psalm 35. 28
Seven whole days, not one in seven,
I will praise thee;
In my heart, though not in heaven,
I can raise thee,
Small it is, in this poor sort
To enrol thee:
E’en eternity’s too short
To extol thee. 434. 3
Paul wrote: I do it all for the sake of the gospel, so that I may share in it blessings. 1 Corinthians 9. 23
We bear the torch that flaming
Fell from the hands of those
Who gave their lives proclaiming
That Jesus died and rose.
Ours is the same commission,
The same glad message ours,
Fired by the same ambition,
To thee we yield our powers. 412. 3
