God of salvation, by whose strong hand
we are led to freedom, led to escape from
death,
may your teaching forever be in our
hearts
and also on our lips.
Now are lives are perishable,
but you will raise us imperishable;
You have sown our lives in weakness;
in power you shall raise them,
with Jesus to the end
of the age.

Selected Verses
Ps. 47:68
Our God is a God
of salvation,
and to GOD, the Lord, belongs escape from death.
and to GOD, the Lord, belongs escape from death.
Exod. 13:9
"…It shall
serve for you as a sign on your hand and as a reminder on your forehead, so
that the teaching of the LORD may be on your lips; for with a strong hand the
LORD brought you out of Egypt. …"
[Moses to the people]
1 Cor. 15:42-43
So it is with
the resurrection of the dead. What is
sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable. It is sown in dishonor,
it is raised in glory. It is sown in
weakness, it is raised in power.
Matt. 28:20b
"…And
remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age." [The Risen Jesus to the eleven, in Galilee]
