5: Resurrections Before the Cross – Singing with Inspiration
The theme hymn for this quarter’s studies “On Death, Dying and the FUTURE HOPE” is
Hymn 214 – We Have This Hope.
Hymn 526 – Because He Lives shows that we are able to continue living today and tomorrow with great hope. It is wonderful to have Jesus who walks and talks with us, to keep encouraging us:
Hymn 251 – He Lives.
As in Martha’s amazing belief of the resurrection to come, we too, today, look forward to hearing the trumpet sound to take us all home with those loved ones who are now resting in their graves raised to new life:
Hymn 418 – Day of Judgment, Day of Wonders!,
Hymn 419 – Soon Shall the Trump of God and then
Hymn 442 – How Sweet Are the Tidings with Jesus coming soon.
Sunday’s story of Moses is brought to us in
Hymn 147 – Christ Upon the Mountain Peak verse 2. This is echoed on Monday with Elijah’s story. The ladies of Zarephath and Shunem show their faithfulness:
Hymn 100 – Great Is Thy Faithfulness.
On Wednesday Jesus encourages Jairus and us “Do not fear, only believe”:
Hymn 511 – I Know Whom I Have Believed and
Hymn 486 – I Do Believe.
We sing in
Hymn 2 – All Creatures of Our God and King that God’s word created life (Thursday) through His miracles:
Hymn 111 – It Took A Miracle
Today we look forward to Jesus coming again. Oh, what a day that will be
When We All Get To Heaven – Hymn 633.
