A Trip Through The Bible

A TRIP THROUGH THE BIBLE

BY

THE LATE BILLY SUNDAY

WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT AS MY GUIDE, I ENTERED THE WONDERFUL TEMPLE OF CHRISTIANITY.

I ENTERED AT THE PORTICO OF GENESIS, AND WALKED DOWN THROUGH THE OLD TESTAMENT ART GALLERIES WHERE THE PICTURES OF NOAH, ABRAHAM, MOSES, JOSEPH, ISAAC, JACOB AND DANIEL HUNG ON THE WALL.

I WALKED INTO THE MUSIC ROOM OF THE PSALMS, WHERE THE SPIRIT SWEPT THE KEYBOARD OF NATURE UNTIL IT SEEMED THAT EVERY REED AND PIPE IN GOD’S GREAT ORGAN RESPONDED TO THE TUNEFUL HARP OF DAVID, THE SWEET SINGER OF ISRAEL.

I ENTERED THE CHAMBER OF ECCLESIASTES, WHERE THE VOICE OF THE PREACHER WAS HEARD. AND INTO THE CONSERVATORY OF SHARON AND THE LILY OF THE VALLEY’S SWEET SCENTED SPICES FILLED AND PERFUMED MY LIFE.

I ENTERED THE BUSINESS OF PROVERBS AND THEN INTO THE OBSERVATORY ROOM OF THE PROPHETS, WHERE I SAW TELESCOPES OF VARIOUS SIZES POINTED TO FAR OFF EVENTS

BUT ALL CONCENTRATED UPON THE BRIGHT AND MORNING STAR WHICH WAS TO RISE OVER THE HILLS OF JUDEA FOR OUR SALVATION.

I ENTERED THE AUDIENCE ROOM OF THE

KING OF KINGS AND CAUGHT A VISION OF HIS GLORY FROM THE STANDPOINT OF

MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE AND JOHN.

I WALKED INTO THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES WHERE THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS DOING HIS WORK IN THE FORMATION OF THE INFANT CHURCH.

THEN INTO THE CORRESPONDENCE ROOM WHERE PAUL, PETER, JAMES AND JOHN PREPARED THEIR EPISTLES.

I STEPPED INTO THE THRONE ROOM OF REVELATION, WHERE TOWERED THE GLITTERING THRONE,

AND CAUGHT A VISION OF THE KING SITTING AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD,

IN ALL HIS GLORY, AND I CRIED.

ALL HAIL THE POWER OF JESUS NAME.

LET ANGELS PROSTRATE FALL.

BRING FORTH THE ROYAL DIADEM

AND CROWN HIM LORD OF ALL!

Bring forth the royal diadem,

And crown him lord of all.

Ye chosen seed of Israel’s race,

Ye ransomed from the fall.

Hail him who saves you by his grace

And crown him lord of all

Bring forth the royal diadem

And crown him lord of all

Let every kindred, every tribe

On this terrestrial ball

To him all majesty ascribe,

And crown him lord of all

To him all majesty ascribe

And crown him lord of all.

Oh that with yonder sacred throng

We at his feet may fall!

We’ll join the everlasting song,

And crown him lord of all

We’ll join the everlasting song,

And crown him lord of all
