JOHN CHAMBERS'S FAVORITE PSALM
PSALM CXXXIII
Behold how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, That ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: That went down to the skirts of his garments: As the dew of Hermon, And as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: For there the Lord commanded the blessing, Even life forevermore.
TO ALL MY FELLOW ALUMNI MEMBERS OF THE FIRST INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF PHILADELPHIA WHO IN HALLOWED MEMORY OF THE PAST OR IN HOPE OF REUNION IN THE ETERNAL HOME GREET JOHN CHAMBERS AS THEIR FATHER IN GOD I DEDICATE THIS LITTLE BOOK
