tune: Kilmarnock, 75.
John 14:1-7
1-7 Let not your hearts with anxious thoughts
be troubled or dismay’d;
But trust in Providence divine,
and trust my gracious aid.
2 I to my Father’s house return;
there num’rous mansions stand,
And glory manifold abounds
through all the happy land.
3 I go your entrance to secure,
and your abode prepare;
Regions unknown are safe to you,
when I, your friend, am there.
4 Thence shall I come, when ages close,
to take you home with me;
There we shall meet to part no more,
and still together be.
5 I am the way, the truth, the life:
no son of human race,
But such as I conduct and guide,
shall see my Father’s face.
SONG 43

tune: St. Andrew, 93; Crimond, 50.
John 14:25-28
25-28 You now must hear my voice no more;
my Father calls me home;
But soon from heav’n the Holy Ghost,
your Comforter, shall come.
2 That heav’nly Teacher, sent from God,
shall your whole soul inspire;
Your minds shall fill with sacred truth,
your hearts with sacred fire.
3 Peace is the gift I leave with you;
my peace to you bequeath;
Peace that shall comfort you through life,
and cheer your souls in death.
4 I give not as the world bestows,
with promise false and vain;
Nor cares, nor fears, shall wound the heart
in which my words remain.
