For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life. Proverbs 6:23. For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. Romans 15:4. And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified. Acts 20:32.

I praise Thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that Thou hast given unto me Thy holy Word, in which Thou teachest me Thy will. O Father, hadst Thou not therein revealed Thyself, I would, as the heathen, have remained in my foolishness, and my heart, which is without understanding, would have continued in darkness. "Alas, Lord, before Thee do I complain that I have not sufficiently appreciated this Thy grace. I have not been constant in searching Thy Word, and in learning Thy will. And how slow am I in living up to what I know?

O Thou eternal Goodness, forgive me this sin. Let me remain in the sound Word of Jesus and know the truth, that it may set me free from the service of sin. Thy Word is a hammer; let it crush my hard heart; it is a light, let it expel the darkness; it is a fire, let it warm my cold heart, and consume everything which is contrary to Thy will. Cleanse my heart which is so full of worldly thoughts, that it may hear Thy Word, keep it, and bear fruit in patience by Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Lord.

Thanks we give and adoration

For Thy Gospel’s joyful sound.

May the fruits of Thy salvation

In our hearts and lives abound.

May Thy presence

With us evermore be found.
