57. THEY THAT WAIT UPON THE LORD

1. Ho, reapers in the whitened harvest!

Oft feeble, faint, and few;

Come, wait upon the blessed Master,

Our strength he will renew.

For “they that wait upon the Lord.. shall

Renew… their strength, they shall mount up

Withwings, they shall mount up with wings as eagles:

They shall run.. and not be weary;

They shall walk and not faint;

They shall run… and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint;

They shall run and not be weary, shall walk and not faint.”

2. Too oft a-weary and discouraged,

We pour a sad complaint;

Believing in a living Saviour,

Why should we ever faint?

3. Rejoice! For He is with us alway,

Lo, even to the end!

Look up! Take courage and forward –

All needed grace He’ll send!

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
