Proverbs 8:22-24
Mari, Lihatlah Semua [KJ.114]
1. Mari, lihatlah semua tanda kasih Allahmu;
lihatlah harapan dunia dalam Bayi yang kudus!
Firman, namun tanpa kata, Tuan, namun tanpa hak,
Raja, namun tanpa takhta, Nur di malam yang gelap.
Lihat Dia, Yang Mulia, tidak diberi tempat.

Hidup oleh matiMu!Ibr 10:10, 14

[Pro 8:22] Ere God Had Built The Mountains
Ere God had built the mountains,
Or raised the fruitful hills;
Before He filled the fountains
That feed the running rills;
In me from everlasting,
The wonderful I Am,
Found pleasures never wasting,
And Wisdom is my name.When, like a tent to dwell in,
He spread the skies abroad,
And swathed about the swelling
Of Ocean’s mighty flood;
He wrought by weight and measure,
And I was with Him then:
Myself the Father’s pleasure,
And mine, the sons of men.Thus Wisdom’s words discover
Thy glory and Thy grace,
Thou everlasting Lover
Of our unworthy race!
Thy gracious eye surveyed us
Ere stars were seen above;
In wisdom Thou hast made us,
And died for us in love.And couldst Thou be delighted
With creatures such as we,
Who, when we saw Thee, slighted,
And nailed Thee to a tree?
Unfathomable wonder,
And mystery divine!
The voice that speaks in thunder,
Says, “Sinner, I am thine!”Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Pro 8:22] Shall Wisdom Cry Aloud?
Shall Wisdom cry aloud,
And not her speech be heard?
The voice of God’s eternal Word,
Deserves it no regard?“I was His chief delight,
His everlasting Son,
Before the first of all His works,
Creation, was begun.“Before the flying clouds,
Before the solid land,
Before the fields, before the floods,
I dwelt at His right hand.“When He adorned the skies,
And built them, I was there,
To order where the sun should rise,
And marshal every star.“When He poured out the sea,
And spread the flowing deep,
I gave the flood a firm decree
In its own bounds to keep.“Upon the empty air
The earth was balanced well:
With joy I saw the mansion where
The sons of men should dwell.“My busy thoughts at first
On their salvation ran,
Ere sin was born, or Adam’s dust
Was fashioned to a man.“Then come, receive My grace,
Ye children, and be wise;
Happy the man that keeps My ways;
The man that shuns them dies.”Play source: Cyberhymnal

Holy Father, God almighty,
Holy Jesus, God adored,
Holy Spirit, God of comfort,
Holy, holy, holy Lord!
All our praises rise before You,
God who made all that exists.
As You did with ancient offerings,
Send Your Spirit on our gifts.You gave us Your body, Jesus,
On the night You were betrayed—
Bread of heaven, earthly feasting—
Sacrifice for sins now paid.
And You gave Your blood to nourish
Body, spirit and the soul—
Cup of blessing that did heal us—
Liquid that did make us whole.We recall Your incarnation!
We recall Your earthly life!
We recall Your crucifixion
Full of agony and strife!
We recall Your resurrection
From the grave though sealed with stone!
This Your victory over death, Lord,
Gives us promise for our own.And recalling Your ascension,
We entreat You and implore
That You soon return and take us
To be with You evermore!
Send Your Spirit to be with us
As we pilgrim through this life.
Keep your church and all our loved ones
From all evil and all strife.With the saints and with the angels
We are longing, Lord, to be,
Where with praise and adoration,
Our Redeemer we shall see.
Through and with and in Christ Jesus,
In the Spirit’s unity,
Be all honor to the Father
Now and through eternity!Play source: Cyberhymnal

Veiled in this great mystery:
Keep us, holy Jesus.By Thy sitting down to meat,
That last Passover to eat:
Keep us, holy Jesus.Through the dread and holy rite,
Founded on that awful night:
Keep us, holy Jesus.Through Thy presence with us here,
When we draw Thine altar near:
Keep us, holy Jesus.Help us, guide us, make us pure,
Give us blessings which endure:

Shine on us, unending Day:

Feed us at the time of death:

Accomplishing His work on earth
Had reached at length life’s eventide.By false disciple to be given
To foemen for His life athirst

He gave to His disciples first.He gave Himself in either kind,
His precious flesh, His precious blood,
In love’s own fullness thus designed
Of the whole man to be the Food.By birth their fellow man was He;
Their Meat, when sitting at the board;

And fire our hearts with Thy strong love,

All fond desires may flee in dread;That when Thou comest from the skies,
Great Judge, to open Thine assize,
To give each hidden sin its smart,
And crown as kings the pure in heart,We be not set at Thy left hand,
Where sentence due would bid us stand,
But with the saints Thy face may see,
Forever wholly loving Thee.Praise to the Father and the Son,

In Heav’n above, to give,
Give me Thy only love to know
In Thee to walk and live.Fill me with all the life of love,
In mystic union join
Me to Thyself and let me prove
The fellowship divine.Open the intercourse between
My longing soul and Thee,

To all eternity.Grant this, O Lord: for Thou hast died

For which I merit Heav’n.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

By each temptation tried,
Who lived to yield our ills relief,

In dangerous wealth we dwell,

And lowly cottage cell.If pressed by poverty severe
In anxious want we pine,

Abide through faith in me,
Nor let me from Thee fall,

What cry hath mounted thither,
And reached Thy heavenly throne,
And drawn Thee, Savior, hither?
It was Thy wondrous love,

Made Thy compassions move,
Stronger than death indeed.Then let me give my heart
To Him who loved me, wholly;
And live, while here I dwell,
To show His praises solely;

This stony heart of mine,
Make it till death still true
To Thee, for ever Thine.Let nought be left within
But what Thy hand hath planted;
Root out the weeds of sin,
And quell the foe who haunted
My soul, and set the tares;
From Thee comes nothing ill,
O save me from his snares,
Make plain my pathway still.Thou art the Life, O Lord,
And Thou its Light art only!

Still leave me dark and lonely.

Or streaks the humblest flower that blows,
But God has placed it there.There’s not of grass a single blade,
Or leaf of loveliest green,
Where heav’nly skill is not displayed,
And heav’nly wisdom seen.There’s not a star whose twinkling light
Shines on the distant earth
And cheers the silent gloom of night,
But God has given it birth.There’s not a place on earth’s vast round
In ocean deep, or air,
Where skill and wisdom are not found,
For God is everywhere.Around, beneath, below, above,
As far as space extends,
There He displays His boundless love,
