Isaiah 26:3a; Psalm 139:12; 1 John 1:5b; Psalm 119:175a; Matthew 6:13b

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

175 Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments help me.

13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace (c. 1850) by Samuel Sebastian Wesley (1810-1876)

29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

Zechariah 9:9-10

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.

10 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth.
