Song of Solomon 1:4
(third of series)
Pastor’s Opening
I do not think I can preach to-night; I feel so weary, and worn, and ill. Still, I can talk to you a little concerning the great love of Christ. If I were dying, I think I could speak upon that theme; and oh, when we rise again, how we shall talk forever and ever about Christ’s love! This will be our endless theme throughout the eternal ages, “His great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins.”

Pastor’s Poem
“There ye that love my Saviour sit,
There I would fain have place,
Among your thrones, or at your feet,
So I might see his face.”

Main Theme(s)
I. First, then, dear friends, as I may be helped by the Holy Spirit, I would remind you of THE PREPARATIONS FOR THIS HOLY MEMORY.
II. in the second place, as I may be strengthened, I would like to speak about THE DIVINE SUBJECT OF THIS HOLY MEMORY: “We will remember thy love.”
III. The last thing upon which I have to speak to you is this, THE DIVINE PRODUCT OF THIS HOLY MEMORY: “The upright love thee.”
