  1. Makin dekat, Tuhan, kepadaMu; walaupun saliblah mengangkatku, inilah laguku: Dekat kepadaMu; Makin dekat, Tuhan, kepadaMu.

Genesis 24:1--29:35

• [Gen 24:31] Welcome, One And All

  We are gathered today in our Sunday school, With our hearts full of grateful praise; We rejoice, we rejoice, as we hither come, That the Lord doth direct our ways. Refrain We would join in the song of welcome: Welcome one and all today! Let us strive with our might e’er to do the right, And to seek for the lambs astray. We would go forth with zeal in our Master’s Name, And would bring many wand’rers in; We would tell them of Christ, who from glory came, E’en to save them from death and sin. Refrain One and all with a will let us work today, To restore to the Lord His own; Leading souls to the bright and the shining way, Serving Jesus, and Him alone. Refrain

• [Gen 24:56] In All My Lord’s Appointed Ways

  In all my Lord’s appointed ways My journey I’ll pursue; Hinder me not! ye much loved saints, For I must go with you. Through floods and flames, if Jesus lead, I’ll follow where He goes; Hinder me not! shall be my cry, Though earth and hell oppose. Through duty, and through trials too, I’ll go at His command; Hinder me not! for I am bound To my Immanuel’s land. And when my Savior calls me home, Still this my cry shall be, Hinder me not! come, welcome death; I’ll gladly go with Thee!

• [Gen 27:34] Poor Esau Repented Too Late

  Poor Esau repented too late That once he his birth-right despised; And sold, for a morsel of meat, What could not too highly be prized: How great was his anguish when told, The blessing he sought to obtain, Was gone with the birth-right he sold, And none could recall it again! He stands as a warning to all, Wherever the Gospel shall come; O hasten and yield to the call, While yet for repentance there’s room! Your season will quickly be past, Then hear and obey it today; Lest when you seek mercy at last, The Savior should frown you away. What is it the world can propose? A morsel of meat at the best! For this are you willing to lose A share in the joys of the blest? Its pleasures will speedily end, Its favor and praise are but breath; And what can its profits befriend Your soul in the moment of death? If Jesus for these you despise, And sin to the Savior prefer; In vain your entreaties and cries, When summoned to stand at His bar: How will you His presence abide? What anguish will torture your heart? The saints all enthroned by His side, And you be compelled to depart. Too often, dear Savior, have I Preferred some poor trifle to Thee; How is it Thou dost not deny The blessing and birth-right to me? No better than Esau I am, Though pardon and Heaven be mine; To me belongs nothing but shame, The praise and the glory be Thine.

• [Gen 28:11] Nearer, My God, To Thee

  Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me, Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee. Refrain Nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer to Thee! Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, Darkness be over me, my rest a stone. Yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God to Thee. Refrain There let the way appear, steps unto Heav’n; All that Thou sendest me, in mercy given; Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee. Refrain Then, with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise, Out of my stony griefs Bethel I’ll raise; So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to Thee. Refrain Or, if on joyful wing cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I’ll fly, Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee. Refrain There in my Father’s home, safe and at rest, There in my Savior’s love, perfectly blest; Age after age to be, nearer my God to Thee. Refrain

  I want Jesus to walk with me, I want Jesus to walk with me; All along my pilgrim journey, Lord, I want Jesus to walk with me.

• [Gen 28:17] Blest Hour, When Mortal Man Retires

  Blest hour, when mortal man retires To hold communion with his God; To send to Heaven his warm desires, And listen to the sacred word. Blest hour, when God Himself draws nigh, Well pleased His people’s voice to hear; To hush the penitential sigh, And wipe away the mourner’s tear. Blest hour, for, when the Lord resorts, Foretastes of future bliss are given; And mortals find His earthly courts The house of God, the gate of Heaven. Hail, peaceful hour! supremely blest Amid the hours of worldly care; The hour that yields the spirit rest, That sacred hour, the hour of prayer. And when my hours of prayer are past, And this frail tenement decays, Then may I spend in Heaven at last A never-ending hour of praise.

• [Gen 28:17] Lo, God Is Here!

  Lo, God is here! let us adore, And own how dreadful is this place! Let all within us feel His power, And silent bow before His face. Lo, God is here! Whom day and night United choirs of angels sing; To Him, enthroned above all height, The hosts of Heaven their praises bring. Gladly the toys of earth we leave, Wealth, pleasure, fame, for Thee alone; To Thee our will, soul, flesh, we give, O take, O seal them for Thine own! Disdain, not, Lord, our meaner song, Who praise Thee with a faltering tongue. To Thee may all our thoughts arise A true and ceaseless sacrifice. Being of beings, may our praise Thy courts with grateful fragrance fill! Still may we stand before Thy face, Still hear and do Thy sovereign will. In Thee we move. All things of Thee Are full, Thou Source and Life of all; Thou vast unfathomable sea! Fall prostrate, lost in wonder fall. As flowers their opening leaves display, And glad drink in the solar fire, So may we catch Thine every ray, And thus Thy influence inspire.

• [Gen 28:17] O Word Of God Above

  O Word of God above, Who fillest all in all, Hallow this house with Thy sure love, And bless our festival. Here from the font is poured Grace on each sinful child; The blest anointing of the Lord Brightens the once defiled. Here Christ to faithful hearts His body gives for food; The Lamb of God Himself imparts The chalice of His blood. Here guilty souls that pine May health and pardon win; The Judge acquits, and grace divine Restores the dead in sin. Yea, God enthroned on high Here also dwells to bless; Here trains adoring souls that sigh His mansions to possess. Against this holy home Rude tempests harmless beat, And Satan’s angels fiercely come But to endure defeat. All might, all praise be Thine, Father, co-equal Son, And Spirit, Bond of love divine, Where endless ages run.

• [Gen 28:17] Only Begotten, Word Of God Eternal

  Only begotten, Word of God eternal, Lord of Creation, merciful and mighty, List to Thy servants, when their tuneful voices Rise to Thy presence. Thus in our solemn Feast of Dedication, Graced with returning rites of due devotion, Ever Thy children, year by year rejoicing, Chant in Thy temple. This is Thy palace; here Thy presence-chamber; Here may Thy servants, at the mystic banquet, Daily adoring, take the Body broken, Drink of Thy chalice. Here for Thy children stands the holy laver, Fountain of pardon for the guilt of nature, Cleansed by whose water springs a race anointed, Liegemen of Jesus. Here in our sickness healing grace aboundeth, Light in our blindness, in our toil refreshment; Sin is forgiven, hope o’er fear prevaileth, Joy over sorrow. Hallowed this dwelling where the Lord abideth, This is none other than the gate of Heaven; Strangers and pilgrims, making homes eternal, Pass through its portals. Lord, we beseech Thee, as we throng Thy temple, By Thy past blessings, by Thy present bounty, Smile on Thy children, and with tender mercy, Hear our petitions. God in three Persons, Father everlasting, Son co-eternal, ever blessèd Spirit, Thine be the glory, praise and adoration, Now and forever.

Psalms 119:81

• [Psa 119:81] My Soul For Thy Salvation Faints

  My soul for Thy salvation faints, But still I hope in Thee; I long to see Thy promised help, When Thou shalt comfort me. Thy statutes I do not forget, Though wasting grief I know; Thy servant’s days are few, O Lord: When wilt Thou judge my foe? The proud, disdainful of Thy law, Entrap me wrongfully; O Thou, whose law is just and true, Help and deliver me. Almost consumed, yet from Thy law I have not turned away; In lovingkindness give me strength, That I may still obey.

Habakkuk 2:3

• [Hab 2:3] Lord, We Know That Thou Art Near Us

  Lord, we know that Thou art near us, Though Thou seem’st to hide Thy face; And are sure that Thou dost hear us, Though no answer we embrace. Not one promise shall miscarry Not one blessing come too late Though the vision long may tarry Give us patience, Lord to wait. While withholding—Thou art giving In Thine own appointed way And while waiting we’re receiving Blessings suited to our day. O the wondrous loving-kindness Planning, working out of sight, Bearing with us in our blindness, Out of darkness bringing light. Weaving blessings out of trials, Out of grief evolving bliss; Answering prayer by wise denials When Thy children ask amiss. And when faith shall end in vision, And when prayer is lost in praise, Then shall love, in full fruition, Justify Thy secret ways.
