THANKFUL BAPTIST CHURCH Sunday, October 8, 1972 - 1:00 P.M.
REV. N. T. YOUNG, Officiating
THE ETERNAL DWELLING PLACE "I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." (Ps. 23:6) We shall dwell forever; we shall never more go out, Never more be weary with sandering about; Never more be seeking for a place in which to rest, Never more be dreading "the stirring of the nest." How our hearts are turning, turning ever as we roam Toward the shinning portals of our Everlasting Home! Is any promise sweeterin our Fathers steadfast Word? "I shall dwell forever in the house of the Lord." We shall dwell forever where warfare never comes, Shrilling of the trumpets or boding roll of drums; In a quiet resting place and in a land of peace, Where all pain and sorrow forever more shall cease. In that abiding City of the rainbow jeweled wall, Set on sure foundations that shall never shake or fall.
Oh, the Joy of looking past the things that pass away To a habitation where our tired feet may stay! Is any promise sweeter in all our Fathers Word? "I shall dwell forever in the house of the Lord."
Annie Johnson Flint.
Out of the chill and the shadow Into the thrill and the shine!
Out of the dearth and the famine Into the fullness Divine!
Out of the sigh and the silence Into the deep-swelling song!
Out of the exile and bondage Into the home-gathered throng! Margaret E. Sangster.
