  4. The souls of the just are in the hand of God, And no torment shall touch them. They seemed, in the view of the foolish, to be dead; And their passing away was thought an affliction And their going forth from us, utter destruction. But they are in peace. ~Wisdom 3:1-3

  5. We shall rise again on the last day with the faithful, rich and poor. Coming to the house of Lord Jesus, we will find an open door there, we will find an open door. ~”We Shall Rise Again”, by Jeremy Young

  8. Make known to me your ways, Lord; Teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, For you are my God my savior. For you I wait all the long day, Because of your goodness, Lord. Remember your compassion and love, O Lord; For they are ages old. Remember no more the sins of my youth; Remember me only in light of your love. ~Psalm 25:4-7

  9. On this mountain the Lord of hosts will provide for all peoples. On this mountain he will destroy the veil that veils all peoples, the web that is woven over all nations; he will destroy death forever.~Isaiah 25:6a, 7

  13. The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom do I fear? The Lord is my life’s refuge; of whom am I afraid? One thing I ask of the Lord; this I seek: To dwell in the Lord’s house all the days of my life ~Psalm 27: 1,4

  14. O God, you are my God – for you I long! For you my body yearns; for you my soul thirsts, Like a land parched, lifeless, and without water. So I look to you in the sanctuary to see your power and glory. For your love is better than life; My lips offer you worship! I will bless you as long as I live; I will lift up my hands, calling on your name. My soul shall savor the rich banquet of praise, With joyous lips my mouth shall honor you! ~Psalm 63:1-6
