SACRED REPOSITORY
OF
ANTHEMS AND HYMNS,
FOR
DEVOTIONAL WORSHIP AND PRAISE.
I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving. Psalms, Ixix. 30.
Canterbury, N. H. 1852.
PREFACE.
We are happy in the consideration of being able to present our kind gospel friends, a collection of sacred Anthems and Hymns, feeling assured that they will be cordially received by all who have embraced the gospel of our Savior Jesus Christ and blessed Moth- er Ann.
They have been selected from among the multiplicity of An- thems and Hymns with which we have been so bountifully favored. Many of these have been communicated to us by the holy gift of inspiration, from our Heavenly Parents, and also from saints and angels whose abode is in the region of perfect felicity; having been received at the different societies of Believers, while others have been composed by mortals sojourning to a more blissful home.
As the gift of songs has ever been esteemed one of the most precious blessings with which the people of God have been favored in this day, — holding a prominent place in the order of divine wor- ship, in which every true Believer takes a deep interest, we consid- er, that the time devoted to this service will be promoting the in- crease of the Zion of God's likeness, and aid in the perfecting of his only true Church.
We are also enabled in this work, to furnish the tunes, printed in musical form, which is the first of the kind ever issued among Believers. It will be observed that the music is placed on three lines, — viz : the intermediate or medium note occupies exclusively the middle line, while those above, are placed in a line above, and those below, in a line below.
As this work was not intended to be a treatise on music, a full explanation of the musical characters and rules cannot be expected; but as the method of placing the notes upon the staff is varied, in some respects, from the system generally adopted among us, it was considered necessary briefly to illustrate the principle in some few points, for the better understanding of those not thoroughly versed in reading music ; for we suppose that by a skillful annotator, the tunes can be as accurately and easily sung as those which rise and fall alternately.
IV
Some of the musical characters used in this work are as follows : A semibreve, or whole note, is represented by a capital letter—
Al IB IC ID IE IF IG A minim, or half note- ai lb ic dl
A crotchet, or quarter note- abed
A quaver, or eighth note- abed
A semiquaver, or sixteenth note- abed
Those who write notes, generally place them according to their respective order in the gamut or music scale, thus:
d e bc
a But in this work, the intermediate note occupies the center line through the tune, (unless when a change in the mi is made,) and all those notes contained in an octave, counting from the medium to the eighth note above it, are placed on a line above the center as follows, —
e tdfg° Medium note, c
which may be considered the same as if they were in their ascend- ing order, thus;
bc
g a f * e e d
Medium note, c c
If the tune ascend beyond the limits of one octave, those notes
so ascending, will be considrred as occupying a second line above
the center, thus ;
a c a a c e g g
Medium note, g g
The same explanation may be considered as applying to those notes which descend from the center or medium note.
As another example, we will take the anthem entitled, "Faithful Witness," Page 2, commencing at the repeat in the seventh line.
But I will confess his name before my Father and before

We believe the foregoing remarks concerning the order of the notes, may be sufficient for all to understand. And that the publi- cation of this collection of sacred Anthems and Hymns, may be the means of promoting that beautiful and divine gift, with which the true heirs of the kingdom of Christ are particularly noticed, is the ardent desire of the publisher. Canterbury, N. H. May, 1852. H. C. B.

ic
2 Against the foe they now advance, Each with his bow and glitt'ring lance, And though they're friends to all mankind, They crucify a carnal mind ;
They spare no idol, great nor small, But pass one sentence on them all, And cut and slash on every hand, To purge all evil from the land.
3 They're well equipt with gospel arms; And make no peace on any terms, Nor with the flesh will stand to treat, But strike at every lust they meet ; They will admit no vain excuse,
To let one vile affection loose,
But bind the captive fast in chains, While one flesh-pleasing tie remains.
4 Now every soul that would do right, Ts welcome to enlist and fight ; These weapons of victorious truth, Are for the aged and the youth ; No soul of man does God exclude From hating sin and doing good ; And in such souls, we do maintain, The God of truth will ever reign.
5 While living truth, like burning coals, Is purging evil from our souls,
We know we are in him that's true, And what he says we freely do : The empire of eternal bliss, Has its foundation laid in this, And all who gain this holy ground, With everlasting life are crowivd.

2 The Lord was not deaf to his people's complaints, When in former ages oppressed,
But graciously promised his innocent saints,
A day of salvation and rest.
When this blessed season has truly begun,
And God puts an end to the fray,
Must peaceable men to the wilderness run?
Each promise of God answers, Nay.
3 We have not the laws of a Nero to face, Nor the horrid edicts of Rome ;
This new dispensation has altered the case,
And fix'd us a peaceable home.
While men of sound reason are widely awake,
Asserting the rights of the day,
Must harmless believers their country forsake?
The good constitution says, Nay.
4 The righteous for their indispensable right, May lawfully enter their plea,
Yet they are not bound for their interest to fight,
Nor are they obliged to flee.
The laws of the country the wicked must meet,
And can their strong pillars give way?
Must all civil rulers before them retreat?
The voice of the nation is, Nay.
5 The law and the gospel do now harmonize, And each has its work to perform ;
To root out the gospel if wicked men rise, The law has to scatter the storm :
9
The gospel does honor the laws of the land, The law does the gospel survey; Then ask if this gospel may lawfully stand, The law has to answer us, Yea.
6 If all the transactions in heaven and earth, For almost these two thousand years, Have been to give virtuous liberty birth, How solid her standing appears! Then come, ye afflicted and scatter'd abroad, You ask, if in peace you may stay; From all the extensive dominions of God, The answer is pointedly, Yea.

Sacrifices of thanksgiving To his courts they daily bring; Songs of joy among the living, Make his sacred temple ring. Through the ranks of vast creation, Nothing can be deaf or dumb, All must give their approbation, That the day of God is come.
While his last loud call he utters, Nature can no more be still ; All creation moves and flutters, In obedience to his will. When his power is to be proved, To convince the stupid soul, If he says,"0 earth, be moved!" Lo, it rocks from pole to pole !
While the judgment is advancing, Satan's kingdom to destroy, Fields and forests fall to dancing, Dwelling houses crack for joy; Rivers heave and swell like Jordan, Water fowls ascend the air; Soon the earth shall loose her burden, All creation does declare.
God will sh ke this old creation, Rocks and mountains overturn, Fill the world with consternation, Till the way of truth the} learn.
Those who will nrt be restored, Sink to their respective hells; But our Gwl shall be adored, In his temple where he dwells.

Rise my soul, rejoice forever,
Prize the resurrection morn ;
Prize the hand that formed my Mother>
Prize the day that she was born.
3 Blessed way of free sarvation ! Blessed cross that we maintain ! Prize the holy habitation, Where these gifts of God remain.

Blessed food, how sweet and pleasant! Blessed is our heavenly fare ; When the love of God is present, It is heaven every where.
Can I ever fret or murmur, Or; be lifeless, dull or cold, Where an everlasting Summer Such fine beauties does unfold 1 Here's the oil and, wine inviting, Here the milk and honey flow ; Many precious gifts uniting, Here the blooming lilies grow.
Here the tender vine and myrtle Spread sweet odors all around; Lovely virgins dance in circles To the harp's melodious sound. Holy angels, guard my spirit In the path my Savior trod, That I may a right inherit On the. holy mount of God.

2 See Jerusalem descending, All adorned like a bride; Lovely virgins are attending, Who the flesh have crucified. See God's glory in the center, View her walls extended high; Surely nothing here can enter, That defiles or makes a lie.
3 Look and see her twelve foundations, Each is formed of pre-
cious stone ;
In this holy habitation, Nothing sinful can be done.
O how boundless are her treasures! Every gate's a precious gem;
Twelve times twelve complete the measure, Of the new Jerusa- lem.
4 See the living waters flowing, Like a river pure and wide; See the tree of life a growing, Wisely placed on either side. View her street that shines so clearly., Like the pure transparent
glass;
23
Those who keep the truth sincerely, In this golden street shall pass.
5 O the love and condescension, Christ the Lamb doth here display, In this day of full redemption, In this new and living way. Come ye souls who have been praying, For this bright millenni- um day ;
No excuses, no delaying, Come and enter while you may.
6 Who shall gain this habitation? Who shall dwell within this wall? Those who quit the old creation, And obey the gospel call. They shall safely be conducted Through her gates that shine so
clear ; But the filthy and corrupted, Shall in no wise enter here.

2 They've come to Mount Zion, an ark for the mind, A mountain that's flowing with milk and new wine; This hill of salvation their spirits renews, Where sweet consolation descends like the dew.
3 For thus saith the Lord, I've returned to be A comfort to all who will call upon me,
A lamp to the wand'ring, a couch to the frail, A certain protection that never will fail.
4 The desert of Zion begins to be seen Like Eden, a garden delightfully green, With fruits and with flowers of various kinds, And beautiful branches composing the vine.
5 Break forth into singing ye heavens above, Ye mountains rejoice in a sonnet of love; The hills and the valleys in rapture may tell, Jehovah hath comforted all that do well.
31
6 As dew saith the Lord, unto Israel I'll be, And he shall grow up as a young Olive tree,
His branches shall spread, and his beauty increase, His name shall be called the Arbor of Peace.
7 The children of Israel their voices shall raise, In songs of thanksgiving and anthems of praise, To heaven's Protector, and Zion's great friend, From whom all true blessings to mortals descend.

2 Thy chosen people, Lord, assist, In mercy, love and pity, And form in them the mind of Christ, Throughout the holy City.
32
Lord, let thy gifts and glory shine
Upon thy holy building, And form the lily and the vine
Within thy chosen children.
3 O God, thou savv'st the suffering Lamb
Upon the cross extended ; Thou art our Father still the same,
Who hast the seed descended. Thou saw'st his sorrow and his grief,
And gave him consolation ; For through thy strength and thy relief
He overcame temptation.
4 What sufTrings did our Mother bear,
In labor for her children! When like her Lord she did prepare
To found this glorious building. Her life was a continual death,
To bruise the old deceiver, Until she found that heavenly birth
The Lord Jehovah gave her.
5 Since God did call our Lord to bear
Such deep humiliation, Then let each member take their share,
With patient resignation. Our present sufTrings feel like toys,
And life when 'tis compared Unto the everlasting joys,
Our Father has prepared.
6 Our precious Parents in this place,
Great suff'rings have endured, To find that pure and spotless dress,
By righteousness procured. Let's fill the measure that's behind,
And follow their example; This is the way that God designed,
To purify his temple.
33
7 Now let us imitate the word,
Like Mother do our duty, That we may reap a full reward,
The glory and the beauty. Here are the virgins, shown to John,
By holy revelation, Who stand around Jehovah's throne,
In his pure habitation.
8 And here are they who have come out
Of bitter tribulation, Have wash'd their robes and made them white,
In deep humiliation. And God will wipe their tears away,
And comfort their affliction; They will, in everlasting day,
Possess the resurrection.

To do to others as I would Have others do to me. The way appears[exceeding straifi, More plain and yet more pure ; My former life I truly hate, Myself I can't endure.
3 Lord blot the things that are behind, While I in sin remained ;
Let grateful thanks employ my mind, For what I have obtained. Though tribulation rend my heart, And melt it soft as wax, May I with zeal perform the part That God of me exacts.
I will forget the things behind,
And in the truth increase ;
That righteousness may clothe my mind
With an abiding peace.
The work is short the Lord will make.
Among the faFlen race ;
Now every band I'll strive to break,

3 Let honesty, virtue and peace, Be printed so deep in my heart, That when earthly comforts do cease. My treasure can never depart.;
36
Let mercy and truth be my guide, And let me be faithful and just, In oneness with Christ to abide, And share in the heavenly rest.
4 O Lord keep me simple and low, To walk in humility's vale, Where peace, love and union do flow, And blessings that never will fail. Thy favor O Lord I entreat, My spirit completely refine ; Lord let me be wise and discreet, Let peace and submission be mine.

2 And as we may travel in true faithfulness, Partake of one bread that is pure, Through much tribulation we're called to progress, According as we can endure. This is a great blessing that God does bestow, This deep tribulation we feel, It leads to the valley that's humble and low, Remote from a hi^h minded zeal.
3 For down in this valley our Savior is found, Christ walks in this humble retreat;
Though sorrow and suffering may often abound,
Here grows the true genuine wheat.
We find here that fountain whose waters are sure,
The soil is not barren or dry;
How fresh that repentance which makes the soul pure,
Unseen and unknown by the high.
4 In humiliation is comfort and peace Unfelt by the great and the high ;
A sweet consolation that finds an increase,
Because the true Comforter's nigh.
Now let this true union increase and abound,
Let nothing our spirits divide;
But patiently travel quite through this low ground,
To reign with the Bridegroom and Bride.

There's heavenly comfort in Christ's love and favor,
'Tis comfort and blessing the foe to repel.
'Tis heavenly comfort to imitate Mother,
Sweet comfort we find to be little and low,
'Tis heavenly comfort to love one another,
In union there's heavenly comfort we know.
3 There's comfort attached to deep tribulation, Because the true Comforter then will be nigh; There's heavenly comfort in regeneration, To live in the spirit and let the flesh die. With comfort we feast on the heavenly manna, Though some tribulation is mixed therein; With heavenly comfort we'll shout the hosanna, When we are redeemed from the nature of sin.

2 A meek humble spirit is riches indeed, A treasure that God does bestow ;
On heavenly manna I always shall feed,
As long as I'm humble and low.
The soul that is humble can bear a full cross,
The burden so light he can run;
No turbulent tempest this vessel can toss,
All dangers they're careful to shun.
3 From those who are humble, vile passions are fled, Love enters, their bosoms to warm ;
Bright glorified spirits encamp round their head,
In Mother's angelical form.
The heavenly harpers awake a new song,
Bright angels their music resound ;
What comfort and blessing to children belong,
Where Christ's humble spirit is found.

4 All earthly tribulation is but a moment here,
And then if we are faithful, a Crown of life shall wear. We shall be called holy, and feed on angels' food Rejoicing in bright glory, before the throne of God.

2 Within the breast this pearl is placed, Well set and deeply rooted,
And virgins wise secure the prize And keep it unpolluted. We will not mar the radiant star, But thank the heavenly Donor And unto him that gave the gem, Give glory, praise and honor.
3 Come let us now with reverence bow To him who gave this blessing;
No earthly kings have seen such things As we are here possessing.
62
This pearl we hold more rich than gold, And none can take it from us; The lowly mind this gift will find, And be an heir of promise.
4 This heavenly grace gives us a place Beside the pleasant river,
Whose crystal stream shall be the theme
Of every true believer.
Let's join in thanks upon the banks
Of this celestial fountain,
And spend our days in songs of praise
On Zion's holy mountain.
5 Here we can see the living tree, Whose leaves will heal the nation, And virgins chaste its fruits can taste Here in the new creation.
This gospel wall encloses all Who do this pearl inherit, And in her street the virgins meet, In union of the spirit.
6 With-in this wall we cannot fall, Her streets are paved completely ; Here we can pass on shining glass, Where virgins sing so sweetly. Here we will sing to Zion's King, Here we will flow together,
Here we'll unite in Zion's height, And praise the Lamb forever.

3 In this dreadful day of trouble, Bitter vengeance to repay,
Let my watchfulness be double, In this great eventful day.
64
Let our blessed Mother's spirit Find in me a resting place, That I may a right inherit In the mansions of thy grace.
4 Let thy judgments be a warning Unto all who seek the light; Though it is so bright a morning, After morning comes the night. Shield my soul with Mother's spirit; Every evil to destroy,
That I may a right inherit In the mansions of thy joy.
5 This kind promise thou hast given, Like a father and a friend,
To continue with thy chosen, Till the world shall have an end. Come ihou sin-destroying spirit, Let my soul be thine abode, That I may a right inherit In the mansions of thy God.

2 Lord, still protect me night and day
That I turn not aside,
Guide me 'n the self-denying way, Where sin cannot abide.
71
Lord, wilt thou grant me my desire, And answer my request? O, cleinse me with thy gospel fire, And give my spirit rest.
3 May sweet repentance wash me clean, And make my garments white ;
May joys eternal close the scene And make me thy delight. O feed my soul from day to day With true and living bread, And lead me in the narrow way Unto the fountain head.
4 Lord, clothe me with a spirit meek And fill my soul with love,
That I m ly learn to act and speak As harmless as a dove. O Lord, be merciful, I pray, Give me a broken heart,
0 may the royal sceptre sway, Till safe I'm in the Ark.
6 All those who're in the sacred Ark Do hear the blessed sound, All ye that do from sin depart, Come now and gather round. Here's righteous robes prepared for all, Who've borne their daily cross, Who have obeyed their gospel call, And labored out of loss.
6 I've seen your works, and heard your prayers,
I've answered your request;
I've helped you out of Satan's snares, Come now and take your rest. I've clothed you with a spirit meek, And made your garments white:
1 gave you bread of Life to eat And you are my delight.

2 See the milk and honey flowing, Taste the clusters of the vine; Precious love and union growing, Here we have the choicest wine. We shall no more be ashamed, Pride has to be overthrown:
Here he calls the poor and maimed, All the humble God will own.
3 Fear not, says the God of Zion, Neither let thy hand be slack: Though the scenes are often trying, Strength the city shall not lack.
73
For the Lord thy God is holy, Mighty in the midst of thee; In his love shall rest the lowly, In his spirit they'll be free.
4 Though the fields should all be dried, Trying scenes afflict the fold, All that's in the furnace tried, Never can affect the gold. God has brought the restoration, We are fixed on the rock ; Strength and glory of the nation, — Praises sing, ye little flock.

Every one that would confound thee, Crush the viper into nought. Come sweet peace and fill my bosom, Let all jarring sounds be mute, Let the Olive spread and blossom, Fill us with the heavenly fruit.
3 Come sweet peace, for thee I'm calling, Come thy sacred banner spread ; Where all discord is a falling,
Boldly rear thy lovely head. Come sweet peace, thou art prevailing, Surely thou hast gained the palm, Bitter envy, strife and railing, Flee before the peaceful Lamb.
4 Come sweet peace and take possession, Bear the sceptre in thy hand ;
Feast the nations with thy blessing, Ride triumphant through the land. Come sweet peace and reign forever, Never more thy subjects leave ; Lovely pledge of Christ the Savior, Precious pearl that Mother gave.
5 Come sweet peace thou God-like spirit, Thou art humble meek and mild ; Who can clearly show thy merit? Thou art Heaven's lovely child. Come sweet peace thou lovely sister Of pure love and charity ;
Every feature, every gesture, Shows that heaven's found in thee.
6 Come sweet peace so mild and placid, Come sweet peace possess my mind ;
75
Let all evil be erased
That I may thy blessings find.
Come sweet peace and put behind me
All contention war and strife;
Come sweet peace in mercy join me
To the blooming tree of Life.

Here everlasting streams of love Flow gently through the vale, And here the little harmless dove No vultures dare assail. The tree of peace unfolds its leaves, And spreads its branches wide; Beneath the lovely shade it gives, The gentle lambs abide.
O what a lovely paradise !
This shall be my abode;
For this all else we'll sacrifice,
And spend our lives to God.
For this we leave old Egypt's shore,
Brave every wind and tide ;
Though Pharaoh's host against us roar,
In Zion we'll abide.

Of these precious gifts delighting, Make thyself a worthy heir ; Zealous be to keep thy union, And thy duty to perform; Strive to join that strong communion, Which will stand the rudest storm.
3 See the Lambs in love uniting, Fervent in the works of God ; In their motions how delighting! Freed from every sluggish clod. See each faithful soul engaged, Breaking every band away ; Joyful that the war is waged, Zealous every foe to slay.
4 See them clothed in robes of beauty, See them armed with zeal and love, All engaged in their duty, Pressing on to realms above.
Hear them sing celestial praises, See them join the hosts of bliss, See them sit in heavenly places, Filled with goodness, joy and peace.
5 O my soul awake, be joyful, Labor for more life and zeal ; Gospel zeal I know is lawful, — O what transports I do feel !

What a prize is set before me ! Life eternal, to my soul, — O my God I will adore thee, While unnumbered ages roll.

2 In this employ I'll spend my days, To God in prayer my voice I'll raise, I will not fear the host of hell, — Of God's eternal power I'll tell.
Fm called from the scenes of woe, To worship God while here below, — His power like fire runs through my soul, His blessings daily o'er me roll.
3 So here on Zion's chosen land
I'll boldly fight with sword in hand, And kill or conquer every foe That dare beset me as I go. The shield of faith and truth I'll wear, The perfect cross of Christ I'll bear, With all the righteous I'll unite, And worship God with sweet delight.

For the gates of salvation are open to me, —

Thy power shall make me stout and bold. Satan cannot my soul divert, God is my strength, my life, my all ; There's none that can me harm or hurt, While I in prayer on God do call.
5 Give me thy grace thy word to know, Let angels lead and guide me right ;
108
Let me not be, while here below,
A wandering pilgrim of the night.
The righteous thou wilt not despise,
But guard them, give them peace and rest;
£.ord thou wilt hear their humble cries,
And with thy power they shall be blest.
6 They'll grow and flourish in thy sight, Adoring thee who made the world, Protected by thy power and might, To them thy truths shall be unfurled. O gracious Lord, accept my prayer, My everlasting hope's in thee ; Save me from every tempting snare, O Lord do thou remember, me.

Free from bondage, Ah! I'm free, And I'll join with one accord Mother's lovely pretty band, In the songs of endless joy; — 1 am limber, I am free,

In each little simple gift

2 He has begun his work in time, He's set the plummet and the line, And every one that will obey
Must walk the strait and narrow way. His work is hoh . just and pure. And all who in it would endure. Must lay aside impurity, And keep their spirits bright and free.
3 A host of angels daily stand Around his chosen, holy band, And satan cannot overthrow
The work which he's begun below. Christ was the first through whom this way- He did reveal in mortal clay; The second heir was Mother Ann, Who now revived the gospel plan.
4 Ye children hear, and all ot^y,
O serve the Lord and love his way,
Unto his holy altar bring
A hearty and free offering.
Repeat his praise with heart and tongue,
Give honor where it doth belong,
Receive from heaven daily food,
Which freely flows to all the good.

5 O all ye saints in heaven, on earth, Your voices raise in shouts of mirth, In thanks and praise for this bright day, This ever new and living way. Praise Christ, your blessed Lord and king, To Mother Ann sweet praises sing, For this great glorious Jubilee, Which sets the soul completely free.

Ere the dawn is breaking; Then we all, both great and small,
All as one cemented, Work away every day,
Happy and contented.

'Tis our calculation, To perform them every way, —
Thus we find salvation. These we will well fulfill,

A permanent redeeming fountain.

Lay thy mighty strong arm bare, Sweep the earth and rule the waters,
May all feel thy wondrous power. Gracious Father, may conviction
Arrest the course of every creature, And in glowing colors contrast
The halls of freedom and of nature.

2 To God we have given our talents and time,
Our life we do freely lay down, To spend and be spent we our all do resign,
To win to our souls a bright crown. A precious reward is for those who endure,
Who firmly hold out to the end ; Their comfort is steadfast, redemption is sure,
Jehovah's their Father and Friend.

3 Secure from the reach of all robbers and thieves,
Our treasure in heaven shall be, Where Satan, the tempter, our souls cannot grieve,
From sorrows we there shall be free. So let us rejoice while together we move
Towards this pure peaceful abode, Where happified spirits are dwelling in love, —
O this is the city of God.

To mansions of glory, where the holy throng
Will sing endless praises of glory and love,
If while on the earth you your time well improve,

So press on with courage, yea press on with zeal, My true healing balsam your souls shall yet heal, True faith and obedience your strength e'er will be, And guide you through time unto eternity.

2 Through the furnace of affliction We may truly have to go, While we bring to crucifixion Every vile delusive foe;
Yet the word of God assures us, This affliction is but light; But the glory it secures us ! Crowns of gold, and robes of white.
3 Robes and crowns of royal beauty, Priceless treasures, these to us, We no more than do our duty, Yet are we rewarded thus !
Then how glorious the adventure Now to sacrifice our all ! Thus the courts of God we enter, WThere we never more can fall !
4 Holy life, for those who live it, These are mansions bright and fair, There's the crown! and God will give it To the souls who thus prepare.
Thus I'll live, while I continue On this mortal shore, my stay : Holy mansions, I have in you Treasures for eternal day.
5 Thus with those who are victorious, Self-denying happy souls!
I will join the songs so glorious, Which through endless ages roll.

2 Then Lord in mercy do draw near,
And calm the swelling tide; Forlo! the waves of death do foam,
And beat on every side. O can this spark of holy faith
My little bark defend, Without a tender Mother's aid,
My ever constant friend?
3 I hear her gentle whispers, say,
Press on in love, press on ; By faith pursue the narrow way,
'Tis so the prize is won. Then why should I delay one hour,
To 'ncrease this precious gem? To labor for that holy power,
Which will my soul redeem?
4 Come love and holy quickening power,
Do help me on my way ; Simplicity come flow around,
Thy beauties now display. Though Satan strive, with all his skill,
To turn my feet aside, Yet I will cleave unto my Lead,
And steadfast will abide.

2 Though bright is the diamond, the pure gold of Ophir, And brilliant the beams of the noon-risen sun ;
Yet, brighter by far is the name of my Mother, Than those in their splendor, united in one.
3 Though bright is the comet, and brilliant the meteor, That blazes and shines in the bright rolling spheres, Yet, brighter by far is the face of my Mother,
And sweeter the smitSes in which she appears.
4 Then tell me no longer of brightness and beauty, Since diamonds, and beauties, are rusty and wan, And fade like the mist mid the charms of my Mother, And vanish away in the presence of Ann.
5 Her store-house is treasured with raiment of jasper, With sapphire, and jewels, far finer than gold, And richer, and fairer, than earth's every kingdom, Or all the bright glories the heavens unfold.
6 Yea, faint are the charms, and dim' are the beauties, That glow in the diamond, and flush in the rose; And feeble the glories that sparkle the heavens, Compared with the treasures that Mother bestows.
7 All hail! blessed Mother, the pearl of creation, The daughter of Zion, loved child of I AM ; The ever dear Mother of peace and salvation, The Queen af fair Zion,, the Bride of the Lamb.

2 Farewell, yea forever, thy pleasures, I find, Have nought in them real, a sting leave behind; When these I pursued, remorse, O how keen! Would pierce my poor soul, as no mortal can pen,
3 Your vain siren charms can no longer allure, Nor carnal delights, which my soul does abhor; I'll turn from your pleasure, so worthless a«d vaiw, And seek for those riches that ever remain.

For all who their robes keep unspotted and pure; My soul does possess them, O this shall be mine, — A conscience unspotted all others outshines.

2 The meek and the humble inherit the earth; The merciful shall obtain mercy;
The perfect in heart can rejoice in sweet mirth,
For they are the ones that are worthy.
The blessings of heaven are surely pronounced
On all who are truly peace-makers ;
Such certainly are the true children of God,
With Christ they are made true partakers;
3 The sufferings of our blessed Lord were severe, He passed through great tribulation;
He felt our infirmity, weakness and care, And bore them with great resignation : Therefore, he hath said unto those who endure, And suffer like him in the spirit, Will find that his promise is ever secure, The kingdom they sure shall inherit.
4 When men shall revile you, declare of you false, And let loose upon you their slander And speak of you evil without a just cause, Christ's blessing will keep you from danger. Rejoice, and be glad, your reward will be great, The prophets were so persecuted : And all who endure it for righteousness' sake, With Christ will be self-executed.
192
5 Tis such that he calleth the "salt of the earth," The "light of the world" — of all nations, A "City set up," that can never be hid, But endureth to aft generations; Such are an example of faith and good works; They follow their Savior to glory ; With him they will rise above all earthly sports, To heavenly mansions that's holy.

2 No gloomy forebodings, no darkness is felt, The soul before God in repentance does melt;
And heaven's bright host seem to kneel with us there, So sacredly blest is the hour of prayer,
Is the hour of prayer.
3 What heavenly peace does our feelings impress ! When Christ is therelwith us our spirits to bless; For 'tis his delight, as his words do declare,
To meet with his saints at the hour of prayer, At the hour of prayer.
4 When he was on earth, worn with sorrow and grief, And no earthly power could afford him relief, How often did he to the desert repair,
And there by himself spend the hour of prayer, Spend the hour of prayer.
5 When through heavy trials our souls are weighed down, Our hopes seem to fail us and friends wear a frown, Then what joy of nature could ever compare
To what the soul feels in the hour of prayer? In the hour of prayer.
6 Blest hour of retirement! what joy is in thee! A season most precious of seasons to me,
A time in which I can for heaven prepare, — O blest of all hours is the hour of prayer,
Is the hour of prayer.

2 How solemn and serene the place, To which we may retreat, In calm reflection there to trace The windings of our feet, To see if daily we are in The holy heavenly way, And far from passion's restless din, In Mother's fold we stay.
3 How often we should call to mind The shortness of our days; That more and more we'll be inclined To walk in Wisdom's ways. O time! how swift thy moments roll ! Thy years glide swiftly on, Like shades and shadows, O my - >ul So soon forever gone.
205
4 Oar life on earth of shortest date Seems like a morning dream ; Eternal is our future state, And solemn is the theme. All earthly pleasures, when they're past. Leave but a sting behind, And hopeless pain and grief at last Must seize the guilty mind.
O let us then be wise in time,
And gain a heavenly store;
Flee vanity and every crime,
And follow those before.
Those blessed saints who pav'd the way,
And walk'd in sorrow deep,
We'll follow, to the realms of day,
And all their counsel keep.
Union Village, Ohio,
1850.
THE NEW KINGDOM.

dl d

2 Proud haughty man this low retreat, Must seek or never find it;
True happiness is not complete, Till self-will we resign it. Then count the cost ye noble, wise, Trust not the tide of nature; Beneath a haughty spirit lies This all important matter.
3 How cold the streams with icy chills, The highest mountains cover ; Unlike the pretty gentle rills,
We in this vale discover. Then will it not the cost defray To lower the gallant topsail, And seek for rest in milder day Where sweet repose cannot fail ?
4 Consider well, 'tis worth your time, The path ere you pursue it ; The way marked by the Son divine,' O will you step into it? The invitation's strong, come, come, Come volunteers and enter; The way's well trodden by the Son, You need not fear to venture.
207
5 Here is a lovely Daughter too, Kind Wisdom has provided — These have declared all things anew, The Kingdom's now divided.
The old and new are here displayed And set in proper order;
The old no longer can degrade *
The new, nor mar her border.
6 The new creation now does shine, Enrobed in clean white linen,
Here's Power and Wisdom's law divine ; The rock on which we're building. With Father, Mother in their place, The household is completed ; With sons and daughters filled with grace, Around their parents seated.
7 What joy and pleasure here do reign, All through this happy kingdom; Who would not give all to obtain
A right in this dominion 1 O raise your voices, shout with joy, Ye worthy sons of Mother ; Proclaim aloud this sweet employ, 5Tis ours, we want no other.

2 But when his power the heavens shall shake, When mountains sink and valleys quake, When wonder fills the starry skies, And scenes unknown their hearts surprise, While cities fall beneath the flood, •And when the moon remains as blood, When darkness veils the king of day, And stars shall seem to flee away, Then will repentance fill the earth, And millions, millions, own its worth.
S While Zion, pure and in the light, Shall be her Savior's chief delight, Her prayers like incense shall ascend, Her songs of praise with angfels blend, The humble soul secure shall stand, As in the hollow of God's hand; And though the elements should melt, Their fervent heat shall not be felt, But still in him their hearts repose, And deserts blossom like the rose.

And the fabricks of man as the dust I will fan,
For his systems I do despise.
And surely I, and surely I,
Who established the earth's foundation,
Will spread o'er her face the knowledge of grace,
And the kingdom of full salvation.
3 And ye unto whom I have given my will, And have called my cause to maintain,
If you are not true, from my mouth I will spew,
And your offerings I will disdain.
But surely know, but surely know,
If you are thus heaven-daring,
In deep regret you shall mourn, till the debt
You have paid to the uttermost farthing.
4 Then in mercy be warned, O my people, to walk In the strictness of my holy spirit;
And thus ye shall stand, when afflictions fill the land,
And my holy blessing inherit.
Yea surely know, yea surely know,
Though thousands arise to oppose you,
I will conquer the foe, turn inward the blow,
And my house shall remain unscathed.
