19:1 In the third <07992> month <02320> after the Israelites <03478> <01121> went out <03318> from the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, on the very <02088> day <03117>, they came <0935> to the Desert <04057> of Sinai <05514>. 19:2 After they journeyed <05265> from Rephidim <07508>, they came <0935> to the Desert <04057> of Sinai <05514>, and they camped <02583> in the desert <04057>; Israel <03478> camped <02583> there <08033> in front <05048> of the mountain <02022>. 19:3 Moses <04872> went up <05927> to <0413> God <0430>, and the Lord <03068> called <07121> to <0413> him from <04480> the mountain <02022>, “Thus <03541> you will tell <0559> the house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, and declare <05046> to the people <01121> of Israel <03478>: 19:4 ‘You yourselves <0859> have seen <07200> what <0834> I did <06213> to Egypt <04713> and how I lifted <05375> you on <05921> eagles <05404>’ wings <03671> and brought <0935> you to <0413> myself. 19:5 And now <06258>, if <0518> you will diligently <08085> listen <08085> to me <06963> and keep <08104> my covenant <01285>, then you will be <01961> my special possession <05459> out of all <03605> the nations <05971>, for <03588> all <03605> the earth <0776> is mine, 19:6 and you <0859> will be <01961> to me a kingdom <04467> of priests <03548> and a holy <06918> nation <01471>.’ These <0428> are the words <01697> that <0834> you will speak <01696> to <0413> the Israelites <03478> <01121>.” 19:7 So Moses <04872> came <0935> and summoned <07121> the elders <02205> of Israel <05971>. He set <07760> before <06440> them all <03605> these <0428> words <01697> that <0834> the Lord <03068> had commanded <06680> him, 19:8 and all <03605> the people <05971> answered <06030> together <03162>, “All <03605> that <0834> the Lord <03068> has commanded <01696> we will do <06213>!” So Moses <04872> brought <07725> the words <01697> of the people <05971> back <07725> to <0413> the Lord <03068>. 19:9 The Lord <03068> said <0559> to <0413> Moses <04872>, “I <0595> am going to come <0935> to <0413> you in a dense <05645> cloud <06051>, so that <05668> the people <05971> may hear <08085> when I speak <01696> with <05973> you and so that <01571> they will always <05769> believe <0539> in you.” And Moses <04872> told <05046> the words <01697> of the people <05971> to <0413> the Lord <03068>. 19:10 The Lord <03068> said <0559> to <0413> Moses <04872>, “Go <01980> to <0413> the people <05971> and sanctify <06942> them today <03117> and tomorrow <04279>, and make <03526> them wash <03526> their clothes <08071> 19:11 and be <01961> ready <03559> for the third <07992> day <03117>, for <03588> on the third <07992> day <03117> the Lord <03068> will come down <03381> on <05921> Mount <02022> Sinai <05514> in the sight <05869> of all <03605> the people <05971>. 19:12 You must set boundaries <01379> for the people <05971> all around <05439>, saying <0559>, ‘Take heed <08104> to yourselves not to go up <05927> on the mountain <02022> nor touch <05060> its edge <07097>. Whoever <03605> touches <05060> the mountain <02022> will surely be put <04191> to death <04191>! 19:13 No <03808> hand <03027> will touch <05060> him– but <03588> he will surely <05619> be stoned <05619> or <0176> shot <03384> through <03384>, whether <0518> a beast <0929> or <0518> a human being <0376>; he must not <03808> live <02421>.’ When the ram’s horn <03104> sounds a long blast <04900> they <01992> may go up <05927> on the mountain <02022>.” 19:14 Then Moses <04872> went down <03381> from <04480> the mountain <02022> to <0413> the people <05971> and sanctified <06942> the people <05971>, and they washed <03526> their clothes <08071>. 19:15 He said <0559> to <0413> the people <05971>, “Be <01961> ready <03559> for the third <07969> day <03117>. Do not <0408> go near <05066> your wives <0802>.” 19:16 On the third <07992> day <03117> in the morning <01242> there was <01961> thunder <06963> and lightning <01300> and a dense <03515> cloud <06051> on <05921> the mountain <02022>, and the sound <06963> of a very <03966> loud <02389> horn <07782>; all <03605> the people <05971> who <0834> were in the camp <04264> trembled <02729>. 19:17 Moses <04872> brought <03318> the <0853> people <05971> out <03318> of the camp <04264> to meet <07125> God <0430>, and they took their place <03320> at the foot <08482> of the mountain <02022>. 19:18 Now Mount <02022> Sinai <05514> was completely <03605> covered with smoke <06225> because <06440> the Lord <03068> had <0834> descended <03381> on <05921> it in fire <0784>, and its smoke <06227> went up <05927> like the smoke <06227> of a great furnace <03536>, and the whole <03605> mountain <02022> shook violently <02729>. 19:19 When <01961> the sound <06963> of the horn <07782> grew <01980> louder <02390> and louder <03966>, Moses <04872> was speaking <01696> and God <0430> was answering <06030> him with a voice <06963>. 19:20 The Lord <03068> came down <03381> on <05921> Mount <02022> Sinai <05514>, on <0413> the top <07218> of the mountain <02022>, and the Lord <03068> summoned <07121> Moses <04872> to <0413> the top <07218> of the mountain <02022>, and Moses <04872> went up <05927>. 19:21 The Lord <03068> said <0559> to <0413> Moses <04872>, “Go down <03381> and solemnly warn <05749> the people <05971>, lest <06435> they force <02040> their way through to <0413> the Lord <03068> to look <07200>, and many <07227> of <04480> them perish <05307>. 19:22 Let the priests <03548> also <01571>, who approach <0413> <05066> the Lord <03068>, sanctify <06942> themselves, lest <06435> the Lord <03068> break through <06555> against them.” 19:23 Moses <04872> said <0559> to <0413> the Lord <03068>, “The people <05971> are not <03808> able <03201> to come up <05927> to <0413> Mount <02022> Sinai <05514>, because <03588> you <0859> solemnly warned <05749> us, ‘Set boundaries <01379> for the mountain <02022> and set <06942> it apart <06942>.’” 19:24 The Lord <03068> said <0559> to <0413> him, “Go <01980>, get down <03381>, and come up <05927>, and Aaron <0175> with <05973> you <0859>, but do not <0408> let the priests <03548> and the people <05971> force <02040> their way through <02040> to come up <05927> to <0413> the Lord <03068>, lest <06435> he break through <06555> against them.” 19:25 So Moses <04872> went down <03381> to <0413> the people <05971> and spoke <0559> to <0413> them.

• [Exo 19:5] Being His

  His oceans all rumble and batter His shore, But He will be new when its waves are no more. His mountains reach skyward to touch His sweet face; His forests burst forth as He showers their place. The mighty Leviathan leaps in His seas, The eagle mounts up on the joy of His breeze. The creatures of earth borrow life from His hand, Their days are all numbered by His firm command. Eternity springs from His Infinite Mind— All time and all space from His fingers unwind, His intricate, limitless, unbounded skill Spins threads of His sovereign, inscrutable will. The thunder of Sinai resounds in our ears, The judgment of God stirs the deepest of fears! But, awesome and wondrous—more staggering still— The flashes of lightning from Calvary’s hill! But O! How mighty, how perfect, how free, How blessèd, how precious, how lovely is He! And O! How grand, and how sweet to behold The trophies of grace He has won from of old! A radiant triumph illumines His face! He strides to His throne, the Colossus of Grace! He sits, and His Father proclaims Him True Son! His strife is now over; His battle is done. We bow, we adore, we fall down at His throne, He gathers us into His arms as His own! He seats us in glory beside Him above, To crown His achievement with splendors of love!

  Great God, the nations of the earth, Are by creation Thine; And in Thy works, by all beheld, Thy radiant glories shine. But, Lord, Thy greater love has sent Thy Gospel to mankind, Unveiling what rich stores of grace Are treasured in Thy mind. When, Lord, shall these glad tidings spread The spacious earth around, Till every tribe and every soul Shall hear the joyful sound? Smile, Lord, on each divine attempt To spread the Gospel’s rays, And build on sin’s demolished throne The temples of Thy praise.

  Lord of the lands, beneath Thy bending skies, On field and flood, where’er our banner flies, Thy people lift their hearts to Thee, Their grateful voices raise: May our dominion ever be A temple to Thy praise. Thy will alone let all enthrone; Refrain Lord of the lands, make Canada Thine own: Lord of the lands, make Canada Thine own! Almighty Love, by Thy mysterious power, In wisdom guide, with faith and freedom dower; Be ours a nation evermore That no oppression blights, Where justice rules from shore to shore, From lakes to northern lights. May love alone for wrong atone; Refrain Lord of the worlds, with strong eternal hand, Hold us in honor, truth and self-command; The loyal heart, the constant mind, The courage to be true, Our wide extending empire bind, And all the earth renew. Thy Name be known through every zone; Lord of the worlds, make all the lands Thine own: Lord of the worlds, make all the lands Thine own! Lord of the lands, beneath Thy bending skies, On field and flood, where’er our banner flies, Thy people lift their hearts to Thee, Their grateful voices raise: May e’er this thankful country be A temple to Thy praise.

  The Lord of might from Sinai’s brow Gave forth His voice of thunder; And Israel lay on earth below, Outstretched in fear and wonder; Beneath His feet was pitchy night, And at His left hand, and His right, The rocks were rent asunder. The Lord of love, on Calvary, A meek and suffering Stranger, Upraised to heaven His languid eye, In nature’s hour of danger; For us, He bore the weight of woe, For us, He gave His blood to flow, And met His Father’s anger. The Lord of love, the Lord of might, The King of all created, Shall back return to claim His right, On clouds of glory seated; With trumpet sound and angel song, And hallelujahs loud and long, O’er death and hell defeated.

  Not to the terrors of the Lord, The tempest, fire, and smoke; Not to the thunder of that word Which God on Sinai spoke; But we are come to Sion’s hill, The city of our God, Where milder words declare His will, And spread His love abroad. Behold th’innumerable host Of angels clothed in light! Behold the spirits of the just, Whose faith is turned to sight! Behold the blessed assembly there Whose names are writ in Heav’n! And God, the Judge of all, declares Their vilest sins forgiv’n. The saints on earth and all the dead But one communion make; All join in Christ their living Head, And of His grace partake. In such society as this My weary soul would rest: The man that dwells where Jesus is Must be forever blessed.
