Come, Ye Blessed
by John Prindle Scott

A much-loved old favorite with a distinctly old-fashioned style; but its datedness has never robbed it of its appeal. The text is one of the most loved from the Christian scriptures: a parabolic urging to brotherly love and the promise of God’s eternal goodness.

Text: Matthew 25: 34-36

Then shall the King say unto them upon his right hand:

Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

I was an hungred and ye gave me meat: I was athirst, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: naked and ye clothed me: I was sick and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

Therefore, ye come blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. Come.
