When David heard the voice of the Lord, he awaked and rose up, he gave thanks unto God, and poured out his heart before him, saying, O Lord our Lord, how wonderful is thy Name in all the world? And again, Praise the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, praise his holy Name. When the Apostles heard this voice of the Lord, they were awaked, they forsook all they had, they took up their Cross, and went over all the world preaching the Gospel of salvation. ⟨image 116⟩When Paul heard the voice of Christ from heaven above, he fell flat on the earth, and being astonied, said, Lord, what wilt thou that I do? I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid: make me to do that thou commandest me to do.
When Dauid heard the voyce of the Lorde, he awaked and rose vp, hee gaue thankes vnto God, and powred out his heart before him, saying, O Lorde our Lorde, howe wonderfull is thy Name in all the worlde? And againe, Prayse the Lorde, O my soule, and all that is within mee, praise his holie Name. When the Apostles hearde this voyce of the Lorde, they were awaked, they forsooke all they had, they tooke vp their Crosse, and went ouer all the worlde preaching the Gospell of saluation. ⟨image 116⟩When Paul heard the voyce of Christ from heauen aboue, he fell flat on the earth, and being astonied, sayde, Lord, what wilt thou that I do? I am thy seruaunt, and the sonne of thy handemayde: make me to doe that thou commandest me to doe.
Then could neither life, nor death, nor Angels, nor Principalities, nor Powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other Creature separate Paul from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord: then he esteemed not to know any thing saving Jesus Christ, and him crucified. He brake his sleep, rose up, and went forward. In like manner the Prophet Isaiah stirreth up Jerusalem, Arise, be bright for the light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
