The Kingdom, Op. 51: Ia. In The Upper Room (Seek first the kingdom)

Seek first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness. Peace be multiplied unto you. Peace peace be unto thee, and peace be to thine helpers. Where two or three are gathered together in My Name, there am I in the midst of them.' Remember the words of the Lord Jesus, Jesus, the Holy One. Surely they are My people': so He was their Saviour For while all things were in quiet silence, and that night was in the midst of her swift course, Thine almighty Word leaped down from heaven out of Thy royal throne. The Light of the world. The Dayspring from on high hath visited us, to guide our feet into the way of peace. The Way, the Truth, and the Life. Did not their heart burn within them, while He talked with them by the way? He took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave it to us. The true Vine the Bread of Life. All Let them give thanks whom the Lord hath redeemed He remembered His holy promise. In the concord of brethren, in the love of neighbours, O praise the Name of the Lord our God. The true Vine, the Bread of Life: He brake, and gave It to us. Praise the Name of our God, That hath dealt wondrously with us. Amen.
