     1 And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. 2 And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, 3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. 4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. 5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. 6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. 7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. 8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.(KJV)


Hymn: WS 761 :
In You Is Gladness

Hymnary.org

1. In Thee is gladness

Amid all sadness,
Jesus, sunshine of my heart.

By Thee are given
The gifts of heaven,

Thou the true Redeemer art.
Our souls Thou wakest,

Our bonds Thou breakest;
Who trusts Thee surely

Has built securely;
He stands forever: Allelujah!

Our hearts are pining
To see Thy shining,

Dying or living
To Thee are cleaving;

Naught can us sever: Allelujah!

2. If He is ours,

We fear no powers,
Not of earth nor sin nor death.

He sees and blesses
In worst distresses;

He can change them with a breath.
Wherefore the story

Tell of His glory
With hearts and voices;

All heav’n rejoices
In Him for ever: Allelujah!

We shout for gladness,
Triumph o’er sadness,

Love Him and praise Him
And still shall raise Him

Glad hymns forever: Allelujah!
