The Christology of John: In the Beginning

Daniel Segraves

July 31, 2024 | Daniel L. Segraves, Ph.D.

On the evening of July 24, 2024, I taught the third in a series of lessons on John’s Christology at The Sanctuary UPC in Hazelwood, Missouri, where Mitchell Bland is pastor. The previous two lessons in this series were taught by Jeffrey Brickle, Ph.D. and David Norris, Ph.D. Videos of all three lessons can be viewed by clicking on this link: The Sanctuary Live! – YouTube.

The following manuscript is the lesson I wrote and from which I taught. It includes information I didn’t have time to discuss while teaching the lesson.

Is Thy Heart Right With God?

Daniel Segraves
It has been a while since I have posted a piano video, but our friends ask for them. This morning Susan and I were going about the house singing “Is Thy Heart Right With God?” As she was preparing breakfast, I sat down at the piano to play this song. Here she came with her phone, so here it is! I hope you enjoy it.

“I Bowed on My Knees and Cried Holy”

VideoDaniel Segraves

This morning after breakfast I sat down at the piano to play a song written almost 100 years ago. Susan came into the room to record it. What a privilege we have to come into the presence of God to worship Him!

Verse 1

I dreamed I went to that city called glory

So bright and so fair.

When I entered the gate I cried Holy;

The angels all met me there.

They carried me from mansion to mansion

And Oh, the sights I saw.

But I said I want to see Jesus,

The One who died for all.

Chorus

Then I bowed on my knees and cried Holy, Holy, Holy

I clapped my hands and sang glory,

Glory to the Son of God

Verse 2

I thought when I entered that city,

My loved ones all knew me well.

They showed me all through heaven;

The scenes are too num’rous to tell.

They showed me Abraham, Isaac and Jacob!

Mark, Luke, and Timothy.

But I said I want to bow down and give praise

To the One who died for me.

Verse 3

I thought when I saw my Savior

Oh, glory to God!

I just fell right down before Him,

Singing praise the name of the Lord.

I bowed down and worshipped Jehovah,

My friend of ‘calvary,

For I wanted to give praise to Jesus

For saving a sinner like me.
