<TITLE>13. Par 47-50</TITLE>L-47 What do you do when you raise your hand? You accept Christ. God bless you, sir, the man with his hand up in the back, gray hair. Oh my. Right quietly, let's just really pray. Let's just search out ourselves for a minute, while we sing "Jesus Keeps Me Near The Cross, there's a precious fountain." Real slowly now. Be in prayer.
 Jesus keep me near the cross,
 There (As He speaks to you, raise your hand.)... ious fountain,
 Free to all, (Without price.) healing stream,
 Flows from Calvary's fountain.
 In the cross, in the cross,
 Be my glory ever;
 Till my raptured soul shall find,
 Rest beyond the river.
[Brother Branham hums--Ed.]

L-48 Lord God, the services will be closing in a few moments. Be merciful now, God. Have I did my best? If I haven't, forgive me, O God. Take every lost soul here, down to the cross just now. Grant it, Lord. May they bathe in His goodness and His holiness just now. Forgive every sin in the building, Lord. We confess our sins. We've been wrong.
O Eternal God, before this song is played sometime in a funeral parlor, and mothers weeping over their children, father over mother, and mother over father, to know they'll never meet again, may they now settle it forever. May they find the cross just now, the Christ that was crucified, to open up a fountain in the house of David for the cleansing of the unclean. Grant it, Father.
 Rest beyond the river.
 In the cross (Will you raise your hand to Him now, you who want to find that rest?) the cross,
 (That's right. Keep your hands up.) glory... (God bless you way up here in front.)
 Till my raptured soul shall find
 Rest beyond the river.
 [Brother Branham begins humming--Ed.] cross I'll watch and wait,
 Hoping, trusting...
Now, Lord, this service is Yours. Save everyone way down deep in their heart. Make every soul to be aware of Christ. May there not be one sinner left in the building, Lord, but what would be saved, every backslider called back just now, while You stand with Your wings over the building. We can feeled Your presence. We know that Thou art here. We thank You for their salvation. May they stay sweet until the day they are called home. Let their... glory in the cross.
 ... glory ever;
 Till my... (All the way until.)... tured soul shall find...?...

L-49 With our heads bowed now, how many accepts Christ right now, freshly into their heart? Raise your hand to Him just now. "Brother Branham, my decision's made. I am going now, from this hour on, to serve Christ the best of my knowledge. I've been slothful and dilatory. I am now going to give Christ my heart, my life. All that I have belongs to Him now." Would you consecrate yourself by raising your hands? All over the building, everywhere now, put your hands up. God bless you. God bless you. That's very good. God bless you. That's good. [Brother Branham begins to hum--Ed.]
 Rest beyond the river.

L-50 Now, Lord God, this is all Yours now. They are the fruit of the message. I pray God that You'll keep them in perfect peace whose hearts are stayed upon you, for You promised You'd do it. May they live long, happy lives. And in that great day when the Rapture comes, if I never get to shake their hand here on earth, may I see them there in that Rapture as we meet to each other, just before going up to meet the Lord in the air. Grant, Lord, that they'll be kept under Your power. And they're love gifts to Your Son from the Father. No man can pluck them from His hand. We commit them to Thee in Jesus' Name. Amen. My...
