Hidup oleh matiMu!Ibr 10:10, 14

Proverbs 2:1--9:18

[Pro 3:1] He Liveth Long Who Liveth Well
He liveth long who liveth well;
All other life is short and vain;
He liveth longest who can tell
Of living most for heavenly gain.He liveth long who liveth well;
All else is being flung away;
He liveth longest who can tell
Of true things truly done each day.Be what thou seemest; live thy creed;
Hold up to earth the torch divine:
Be what thou prayest to be made;
Let the great Master’s steps be thine.Fill up each hour with what will last;
Buy up the moments as they go;
The life above, when this is past,
Is the ripe fruit of life below.Sow love, and taste its fruitage pure;
Sow peace, and reap its harvest bright;
Sow sunbeams on the rock and moor,
And find a harvest-home of light.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Pro 3:3] Loyalty Unto Christ
“Loyalty unto Christ” the trumpet now is sounding,
And the echoes answer from the fields of sin;
Nations are awaking, idol thrones are shaking,
For the great millennium is coming in.
Like a mighty army,
The heralds of the cross are spreading over land and sea.
Bearing through the darkness,
The light that leadeth to salvation full and free.Refrain
Long and loud, “Loyalty unto Christ” we sing;
Till every human tongue shall hear His praises sung!
Let the hills, valleys and desert places ring,
With “Loyalty unto Christ, our Lord and King.”Loyalty, faith and works, in holy consecration,
Shall the scattered nations unto Him restore;
Then the world shall own Him, and with joy enthrone Him,
King of kings and Lord of lords forevermore.
See the darkness lifting!
The Gospel light of truth is spreading to the perfect day!
Clouds are backward drifting!
Renew endeavor! for the King prepare the way!Refrain
“Loyalty unto Christ!” O what a mighty power,
Were the hosts of God united in His Name!
Then would angels greet us, Christ Himself would meet us,
And baptize us with the Pentecostal flame.
Then would come the triumph,
And Christ be known and loved,
His praise be sung from shore to shore;
Earth would then, in glory,
Become the kingdom of the Lord forevermore.Refrain

Sailor, though the darkness gathers,
Though the cold waves surge and moan,
Trust thy bark to God’s great mercy,
Falter not; sail on, sail on.Refrain
Sailing into port, what matter,
Drooping sail or shattered mast?
Glory, glory fills the harbor,
There we’ll anchor safe at last.Sailor, though with streamers flying,
Yonder proud ship mounts the foam,
And with bands of music playing,
Gains the port and welcome home.Refrain

Though thy sails be rent and torn,

And deliverance with the morn.Refrain

Rest in the arms of His care;

Seeeth all things as they are,
Be it a birdling in its nest,
Or yonder uttermost star.Refrain

All thro’ your pathway ahead,

[Pro 3:6] Lead Us, O Father
Lead us, O Father, in the paths of peace:
Without Thy guiding hand we go astray,
And doubts appall, and sorrows still increase;
Lead us through Christ, the true and living Way.Lead us, O Father, in the paths of truth:
Unhelped by Thee, in error’s name we grope,
While passion stains, and folly dims our youth,
And age comes on, uncheered by faith or hope.Lead us, O Father, in the paths of right:
Blindly we stumble when we walk alone,
Involved in shadows of a darksome night;
Only with Thee we journey safely on.Lead us, O Father, to Thy heavenly rest,
However rough and steep the path may be,
Through joy or sorrow, as Thou deemest best,
Until our lives are perfected in Thee.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Pro 3:6] Leader Of Faithful Souls
Leader of faithful souls, and Guide
Of all who travel to the sky,
Come, and with us, even us, abide,
Who would on Thee alone rely;
On Thee alone our spirits stay
While held in life’s uneven sway.We’ve no abiding city here,
But seek a city out of sight;
Thither our steady course we steer,
Aspiring to the plains of light,
Jerusalem, the saints’ abode,
Whose founder is the living God.Through Thee, who all our sins hast borne,
Freely and graciously forgiven,
With songs to Zion we return,
Contending for our native heaven,
That palace of our glorious King,
We find it nearer while we sing.Raised by the breath of love divine,
We urge our way with strength renewed,
The Church of the first-born to join,
We travel to the mount of God;
With joy upon our heads arise,
And meet our Captain in the skies.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Pro 3:9] Fair Waved The Golden Corn
Fair waved the golden corn,
In Canaan’s pleasant land,
When full of joy, some shining morn,
Went forth the reaper band.To God so good and great
Their cheerful thanks they pour;
Then carry to His temple gate
The choicest of their store.Like Israel, Lord, we give
Our earliest fruits to Thee,
And pray that, long as we shall live,
We may Thy children be.Thine is our youthful prime,
And life and all its powers,
Be with us in our morning time,
And bless our evening hours.In wisdom let us grow,
As years and strength are given,
That we may serve Thy Church below,
And join Thy saints in Heaven.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

[Pro 3:10] How Blest The Matron, Who, Endued
How blest the matron, who, endued
With holy zeal and fortitude,
Has won through grace a saintly fame,
And owns a dear and honored name.Such holy love inflamed her breast
She would not seek on earth her rest,
But, strong in faith and patience, trod
The narrow way that leads to God.She learned, through fasting, to control
The flesh that weigheth down the soul,
And then, by prayer’s sweet food sustained,
To seek the joys she now has gained.O Christ, from Whom all virtue springs,
Who only doest wondrous things,
To Thee, the King of saints, we pray,
Accept and bless Thy flock today.All praise to God the Father be,
All praise, eternal Son, to Thee,
Whom with the Spirit we adore
For ever and for evermore.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Happy the man that finds the grace,
The blessing of God’s chosen race,
The wisdom coming from above,
The faith that sweetly works by love.Happy beyond description he
Who knows: The Savior died for me;
The gift unspeakable obtains,
And heavenly understanding gains.Wisdom divine! Who tells the price
Of wisdom’s costly merchandise;
Wisdom to silver we prefer,
And gold is dross compared to her.Her hands are filled with length of days,
True riches, and immortal praise,
Riches of Christ, on all bestowed,
And honor that descends from God.To purest joys she all invites,
Chaste, holy, spiritual delights;
Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
And all her flowery paths are peace.Happy the man who wisdom gains,
Thrice happy who his Guest retains!
He owns, and shall for ever own,
Wisdom, and Christ, and Heaven are one.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Pro 3:13] O Happy Is The Man Who Hears
O happy is the man who hears
Instruction’s warning voice;
And who celestial Wisdom makes
His early, only choice.For she has treasures greater far
Than east or west unfold;
And her rewards more precious are
Than all their stores of gold.In her right hand she holds to view
A length of happy days;
Riches with splendid honors joined
Are what her left displays.She guides the young with innocence,
In pleasure’s paths to tread,
A crown of glory she bestows
Upon the hoary head.According as her labors rise,
So her rewards increase;
Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
And all her paths are peace.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Who times and seasons dost divide,
Refresh at night with quiet rest,
Our limbs by daily toil oppressed.That while in this frail house of clay
A little longer here we stay,
Our flesh in Thee may sweetly sleep,
Our souls with Thee their vigils keep.We pray Thee, while we dwell below,
Preserve us from our ghostly foe;
Nor let his wiles victorious be
O’er them that are redeemed by Thee.O Lord of all, with us abide
In this our joyful Eastertide;

Though lowly here our lot may be,
High work have we to do,

Whose lot was lowly, too.Our lives, enriched with gentle thoughts
And loving deeds, may be
A stream that still the nobler grows,
The nearer to the sea.To duty firm, to conscience true,
However tried and pressed,
In God’s clear sight high work we do,
If we but do our best.Thus may we make the lowliest lot
With rays of glory bright;
Thus may we turn a crown of thorns

No compromise, no compromise,
This shall be our battle cry,
For God and right we will boldly fight,
We will keep the standard high.No compromise with error, for Bible truth we stand,
Let none remove the landmarks erected by God’s hand.
With loyalty our watchword and faith in Christ our stay,
We’ll bravely storm the forts of sin and thro’ Him win the day.Refrain
No compromise with worldliness, no yielding to the wrong,
No lowering the standard that’s stood thro’ ages long;

We’ll firmly stand for righteousness whatever may betide.Refrain

While others scorned me in their pride
She gently drew me to her side;
When all the world has turned away,

How shall I meet Thee? How my heart
Receive her Lord aright?
Desire of all the earth Thou art!
My hope, my sole delight!
Kindle the lamp, Thou Lord, alone,
Half-dying in my breast,
And make Thy gracious pleasure known
How I may greet Thee best.Her budding boughs and fairest palms
Thy Zion strews around;
And songs of praise and sweetest psalms
From my glad heart shall sound.
My desert soul breaks forth in flowers,
Rejoicing in Thy fame;
And puts forth all her sleeping powers,
To honor Jesus’ Name.In heavy bonds I languished long,
Thou com’st to set me free;
The scorn of every mocking tongue—
Thou com’st to honor me.
A heavenly crown wilt Thou bestow,
And gifts of priceless worth,
That vanish not as here below
The fading wealth of earth.Nought, nought, dear Lord, has power to move
Thee from Thy rightful place,
Save that most strange and blessèd love
Wherewith Thou dost embrace
This weary world and all her woe,
Her load of grief and ill
And sorrow, more than man can know—
Thy love is deeper still.O write this promise in your hearts,
Ye sorrowful, on whom
Fall thickening cares, while joy departs
And darker grows your gloom.
Despair not, for your help is near,
He standeth at the door
Who best can comfort you and cheer,
He comes, nor stayeth more.Nor vex your souls with care, nor grieve
And labor longer thus,
As though your arm could ought achieve,
And bring Him down to us.
He comes, He comes with ready will
By pity moved alone,
To soothe our every grief and ill,
For all to Him are known.Nor ye, O sinners, shrink aside,
Afraid to see His face,
Your darkest sins our Lord will hide
Beneath His pitying grace.
He comes, He comes, to save from sin,
And all its pangs assuage,
And for the sons of God to win
Their proper heritage.Why heed ye then the craft and noise,
The fury of His foes?
Lo, in a breath the Lord destroys
All who His rule oppose.
He comes, He comes, as King to reign!
And earthly powers may band
Against Him, yet they strive in vain,
His might may none withstand.He comes to judge the earth, and ye
Who mocked Him, feel His wrath;
But they who loved and sought Him see
His light o’er all their path.

And guide us on our way
To yon fair mansion in the skies
Of joyous cloudless day.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

[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!

Says, “Sinner, I am thine!”Play source: Cyberhymnal -

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 -
