Just An Ordinary Day Sometime some ordinary day will come, A busy day like this—filled to the brim With ordinary tasks—perhaps so full That we have little thought or care for Him. And there will be no hint from silent skies, No sign, no clash of cymbals, roll of drums; And yet that ordinary day will be The very day in which our Lord will come. —Author unknown Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. I Thess. 5:6 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ. Titus 2:13

Just An Ordinary Day

Sometime some ordinary day will come,
A busy day like this—filled to the brim
With ordinary tasks—perhaps so full
That we have little thought or care for Him.

And there will be no hint from silent skies,
No sign, no clash of cymbals, roll of drums;
And yet that ordinary day will be
The very day in which our Lord will come.
—Author unknown

Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. I Thess. 5:6

Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ. Titus 2:13

Thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God. The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.—In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.—Who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die, and of the son of man which shall be made as grass; and forgettest the LORD thy maker? I am with thee to deliver thee.—Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.—Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. ————————————————————————————— Psalm 40:17; Psalm 37:23-24; Proverbs 14:26; Isaiah 51:12-13; Jeremiah 1:8; Deuteronomy 31:6; Psalm 59:16; Psalm 32:7 Copied from Daily Light on the Daily Path, compiled by Jonathan Bagster.

My Bible and I We've traveled together through life's rugged way, O'er land and o'ver water, by night and by day: To travel without it I never would try; We keep close together, my Bible and I. In sorrow I've proved it my comfort and joy, When weak my strong tower which nought can destroy; When death comes so near me 'tis thought I would die, We still are together, my Bible and I. If powers of evil against me would come, And threaten to rob me of heaven and home, God's Word then directs me to Him in the sky; And nothing can part us, my Bible and I. When evil temptations are brought to my view, And I in my weakness know not what to do, On Christ as my strength I am taught to rely; And so we keep company, my Bible and I. When life's path is ended; if Jesus should come And take all his blood-purchased brethren home; Or if, in long suffering, He waits till I die, We'll never be parted, my Bible and I. And when in the glory my Lord I behold, With all His redeemed gathered safe in the fold, My Bible and I close companions will be, FOR GOD'S WORD ABIDES FOR ALL ETERNITY. —Author unknown Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my Words shall not pass away. Matthew 24:35 But the Word of the Lord endureth for ever. 1 Peter 1:25a For Thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. Psalm 138:2b

My Bible and I

We've traveled together through life's rugged way,
O'er land and o'ver water, by night and by day:
To travel without it I never would try;
We keep close together, my Bible and I.

In sorrow I've proved it my comfort and joy,
When weak my strong tower which nought can destroy;
When death comes so near me 'tis thought I would die,
We still are together, my Bible and I.

If powers of evil against me would come,
And threaten to rob me of heaven and home,
God's Word then directs me to Him in the sky;
And nothing can part us, my Bible and I.

When evil temptations are brought to my view,
And I in my weakness know not what to do,
On Christ as my strength I am taught to rely;
And so we keep company, my Bible and I.

When life's path is ended; if Jesus should come
And take all his blood-purchased brethren home;
Or if, in long suffering, He waits till I die,
We'll never be parted, my Bible and I.

And when in the glory my Lord I behold,
With all His redeemed gathered safe in the fold,
My Bible and I close companions will be,
FOR GOD'S WORD ABIDES FOR ALL ETERNITY.
