Selected Scripture

Psalms 69

7 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; confusion hath covered my face. 8 I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's sons; 9 For the zeal of thy house hath devoured me, and the reproaches of them that reproach thee have fallen upon me.

Selected Hymn Verse

Hymns and Spiritual Songs for the Little Flock (rev 1962), #13, Verse 1

The Father sent the Son
A ruined world to save;
Man meted to the sinless One
The cross - the grave.
Blest Substitute from God,
Wraths's awful cup He drained;
Laid down His life, and e'en the tomb's
Reproach sustained.
