The words rang out through the building with their message of hope and confidence and were answered by the people: "Praise the Lord, for He is good: for His mercy endureth forever. "Praise ye the God of gods: for His mercy endureth forever." Those who were nearest the Bishop pressed him to escape. "The shepherd's place is with his flock," he answered firmly.

In one of the mosques of Damascus, which has been a Christian church, and before that was a heathen temple, the portal bears, deep cut in Greek characters, the inscription, 'Thy kingdom, O Christ, is an everlasting kingdom, and Thy dominion endureth throughout all generations. The confident words seem contradicted by the twelve centuries of Mohammedanism on which they have looked down.

Eleanor was not in love with Bertie Stanhope, nor was she in love with Mr Arabin. But her devotion to her late husband was fast fading, when she could revolve in her mind, over the cradle of his infant, the faults and failings of other aspirants to her favour. Will any one blame my heroine for this? Let him or her rather thank God for all His goodness, for His mercy endureth for ever.

My heart endureth passion's pangs, my grief Continues. Where's thy remedy, O Taleb? Thy remedy is lost, my good Lord Taleb. Pray God for me, O Taleb, I implore. But how to cure the malady of love? There is no remedy, and all is lost. I die for lack of strength to bear my trials.

Satan's service is alluring it begins in pleasure and ends in sorrow "the dead are there!" Christ's service begins in duty and ends in delight "Blessed is the man who endureth temptation."

In the same spirit also faithfully worship and salute the emblem of the life-giving and venerable Cross, for the sake of him that hung thereon in the flesh, for the salvation of our race, Christ the God and Saviour of the world, who gave it to us as the sign of victory over the devil; for the devil trembleth and quaketh at the virtue thereof, and endureth not to behold it.

Under their leader, Moses, they began their long journey toward Palestine. The Jewish people never forgot what God did for them in Egypt. So in the spring of each year was held the Feast of the Passover, to give thanks to God for the help he had given them long ago. "O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: For his mercy endureth for ever."

There were the words: "Charity suffereth long and is kind, charity is not easily provoked;" and "Charity beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things." To be kind and patient, to hope and endure all things, was the duty love imposed upon her. When she had closed the bible and was preparing to go to Henrica, Barbara ushered Janus Dousa into the room.

How solemn, how true the words, whose melancholy haunts the more the memory dwells on them: "this world passeth away and the desire thereof, but he that doeth the Divine will endureth for ever"! As we said, the one changeless thing, beyond the doom of sun-stars and swarms of worlds, is the will of man nobly submissive to the Great Obedience of the Supreme Law the Law of Justice and of Truth.

Afterwards, when the Edomites, Ammonites, and Moabites came up against Judah, Jehoshaphat was commanded to have no fears, but to go out to meet them, with the Levites singing before him, "Praise the Lord, for His mercy endureth for ever!"
