      “You shall be as the Highest”?

      Or else “he died, he died”?

      Imagine This

      If you would stretch your vision

      Imagine if you can

      The glory of our Savior,

      The only Righteous Man,

      Forsaken of His Father

      For wretches such as I,

      Denied, condemned, and dying

      Beneath a darkened sky

      My guilt and sorrow bearing,

      The theanthropic man,

      That I might be forgiven:

      Imagine if you can.

      Bear Ye One Another’s Burdens

      If it weighs upon you, brother,

      It shall weigh upon me too.

      If my Lord has borne my burden,

      Then I must bear yours with you.

      Inverse

      (From Romans 14)

      If you think love is lawless,

      What are you dreaming of?

      To love is to fulfill the law,

      To keep the law, to love.

      On the Cancer of a Friend

      How awful and tragic is cancer!

      I hope against cancer we win,

      But more than a world without cancer,

      I long for a world without sin.

      The Perfect Church

      If you the perfect church should find

      Keep this one thought before your mind:

      If joining it you should think fit,

      That deed would surely ruin it.

      On the Attire of the High Priest

      Engrave me on the onyx stones

      That shall upon Thy shoulders be.

      Engrave me on the precious gems

      That on Thy heart the world shall see.

      For Thou didst bear my name on High

      Before the Judge and Majesty

      When Thou didst offer up Thyself,

      A Ransom and a Remedy.

      Who am I, Lord, that Thou should’st love

      The weak and wretched, vile and poor,

      That Thou should’st give Thyself for me

      That Thou my ruin might restore?

      Blest be the Father’s mighty Love,

      Blest be the Savior’s Mercy free,

      Blest be the Spirit, earnest given

      That I Thy blessed Face shall see.

      Thy Will be Done

      (I Samuel 3:18)

      Lord, let Thy will be done

      Whate’er Thou dost ordain,

      In peace and happiness and joy,

      In sorrow and in pain.

      O glorify Thy name

      E’en when we know not how.

      Submissively before Thy throne

      Thy chosen people bow.

      The priest of old discerned

      ‘Twas not Thy will to save,

      But when Thy glory did depart

      He lay down in his grave.

      Before the awful tree

      Did agonize Thy Son,

      But still submissively He prayed,

      “Thy will, not Mine, be done.”

      For Buttons, a Dachshund

      Sleep, little friend, from care set free.

      Know you were precious unto me.

      No pain or sorrow more to know,

      Where grief and anguish cannot go.

      If God on sparrows spends His care,

      In His safekeeping you must share.

      Know you were loved entirely.
