29 Mon.
(Exodus 18. 1-12; Acts 9. 1-9)
And this city shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and a glory before all the nations of the earth who shall hear of all the good that I do for them. Jeremiah 33. 9
O Thou not made with hands,
Not throned above the skies,
Nor walled with shining walls,
Nor framed with stones of price,
More bright than gold or gem,
God’s own Jerusalem! 370. 1
John wrote: Then one of the angels showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God. Revelation 21. 9. 10
Not throned above the skies,
Nor golden-walled afar,
But where Christ’s two or three
In his name gathered are,
Lo, in the midst of them,
God’s own Jerusalem! 370. 5
