The publishers commend this little volume to Sunday-school workers as a collection of fresh, sweet songs, from the pen of one with whom most of them are familiar through similar works. We believe it to be the best of his works in this line.

To those who may have time for a hasty examination only, we point out some of the leading songs: Pages 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17, 21, 22, 24, 26, 37, 38, 40, 48, 53, 57, 58, 86, 100.

Rev. KoBERT LoaVrY. By per.

1. I am buund for the mansions of glory on liigli, Prepared by the Lord for his saints wlien they die,

2. The loved ones are there, who have passed on before, All waiting to grpet me on that happy shore ;

3. There prophets, apostles, and martyrs shall meet. Where the elders are casting their crowns at the feet

4. I am warring my warfare, and keeping the faith, I am running my race and preparing for death ;

1. There's a song the angels know, And we sometinaes here below, Catch its tones as if a harp attuned above,

2. Ev - 'ry gentle word we teach, Is a mel-o - dy of speech, We shall sing in yonder New Jeriir^alem ;

3. Glorv to our heavenly King, In our daily lives we sing. By our deeds of kindness to our fellow-men;

And by angol fingers tried, Ere its cadences had died. Dropped to earth vibrating still with chords of love.

And the angel bands rejoice, When they hear an earthly voice, Join tlie happy hallelujahs sung by them.

And around th'eternal throne, Where we make its praise our own, We shall but repeat our words of love again. I

Shall we disown tliat friend whose blood To man salvation brought?

2 With the glad news of love and peace, From heaven to earth he came;

For us endured the painful cross, For us despised the shame.

3 To his command let us submit Oui'selves without delay;

Our lives — yea, thousand lives of ours — His love can ne'er repay.

4 To bear his name — his cross to bear — Our highest honor this!

Alas ! and did my Savior bleed ?

And did my sovereign die? Would lie devote that sacred head . For such a worm as I ?

Chorus. Help me, dearvSavior, thee to own,

And ever faithful be ; And when thou sittest on thy throne,

Dear Lord, remember me.

Was it for crimes that I had done He groaned upon the tree?

Amazing pity! grace unknownl And love beyond degree 1

Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut his glories in,

When God's own Sou was crucified For man the creature's sin.

Thus might I hide my blushing face

While his dear cross appears, Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,

And melt mine eyes to tears. But drops of grief can ne'er repay

The debt of love I owe: Here, Lord, I give myself away :

' T is all that I can do.

Here and Yonder. Key of G

1 Here we are but straying pilgrims, Here our path is often dim;

But to cheer us on our journey, Still we sing this wayside hymn.

Chorus. Yonder, over the rolling river,

Where the shining mansions rise, Soon will be our home forever, And the smile of the blessed Giver

Gladdens all our longing eyes.

2 Here our feet are often weary

On the hills that throng our way; Here the tempest darkly gathers, But our hearts within us say:

3 Here our souls are often fearful Of the pilgrim's lurking foe;

But the Lord is our defender, And he tells us we may know.

4 Here our shadowed homes are transient. And we meet the stranger's frown ;

So we'll sing with joy while going. E'en to death s dark billow down.

1 There is a land of pure delight,

Where saints immortal reign, Infinite day excludes the night,

And pleasures banish pain. There everlasting Spring abides,

And never-with'ring flow'rs; Death, like a narrow sea, divides

This heav'nly land from ours.

2 Sweet fields, beyond the swelling flood,

Stand dressed in living green; So to the Jews old Canaan stood.

While Jordan rolled between. But timorous mortals start and shrink

To cross this narrow sea. And linger, shivering, on the brink,

And fear to launch av/ay.

3 Ocould we make our doubts remove,

Those gloomy doubts that rise, And see the Canaan that ^ e love,

With unbecloudedeyes; Could we but climb where Moses stood,

And view the landscape o'er, Not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,

Should fright us from the shore.

2 O, think of the friends over there, Who before us the journey have trod,

Of the songs that they breathe on the air, In their home in the palace of God. Over there, over there, O, think of the friends over there.

3 My Savior is now over there. There my kindred and friends are at rest ;

Then away from my sorrow and care,

Let me fly to the land of the blest. Over there, over there. My Savior is now over there. 4 I '11 soon be at home over there, For the end of my journey I see ; Many dear to my heart over there. Are watching and waiting for me. Over there, over there, I'll soon be at liome over there. ,

Assembled at thy mercy's door. Thy bounty to obtain.

For we no money have to buy, Nor righteousness to plead.

O, hear the prn ycr of faith, and grant That we ni;»y eat and live 1

1 Blest be the tie that binds Our hearts in Christian love;

The fellowship of kindred minds Is like to that above.

2 Before our Father's throne We pour our ardent prayers;

Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, Our comforts and our cares.

3 We share our mutual woes, Our mutual burdens bear;

And often for each other flows The sympathizing tear.

4 Though often called to part, Amid these scenes of pain ;

r^i — V-

Yet we shall still be joined in heart. And hope to meet again.

5 This glorioua hope revives Our courage by tlie way;

While each in exjiectation lives, And longs to see the day.

1 Blest Savior! Friend divine! Thou source of boundless love !

The hope of all thy saints on earth. The joy of all above.

2 How can I tell thy worth ! How make thy glories known ?

No language can tliy goodness speak, No tongue thy mercies own.

3 My words can not express The sweetness of tliy name 1

Nor can my feeble lips declare The wonders of thy fame.

4 Tlien take ray trusting heart, I can not give thee more:

Make rich my soul's deep poverty. From thine unwasting store !

The house of thine abode, The Cliurch our blest Redeemer saved

With his own precious blood. I love thy Church, OGod!

Her walls before thee stand Dear as the apple of thine eye,

And graven on thy hand.

2 For her my tears shall fall,

For her my prayers ascend; To her my toils and cares be given,

Till toils and cares siiall end. Beyond my highest joy

I prize her heavenly ways, Her sweet communion, solemn vows,

Her hymns of love and praise.

3 Jesus, thou friend divine.

Our Savior and our King! Thy hand from every snare and foe

Shall great deliverance bring. Sure as thy truth shall last,

To Zion shall be given The brigh test glories earth can yield,

And brighter bliss of heaven.

Under the sunset skies ; While their bright tints are glowing.

Work, for daylight flies. Work till the last beam fadeth,

1 Lord , with glowing heart I '11 praise thee

For the bliss thy love bestows. For the pardoning grace that save'' me,

And the peace that from it flows. Help, O God, my weak endeavor,

This dull soul to rapture raise; Thou must light the flame, or never

Can my love be warmed to praise.

2 Praise, my soul, the God that sought thee,

Wretched wanderer, far astray; Found thee lost, and kindly brought thee

From the paths of death away. Praise, with love' sdevou test feeling,

Him who saw thy guilt-born fear. And, the light of liope revealing,

Bade the blood-stained cross appear.

3 Lord, this bosom's ardent feeling

Vainly would my lips express; Low before thy footstool kneeling,

Deign thy suppliant's prayer to bless. Let thy grace, my soul's chief treasure,

Love's pure flame within me raise; And since words can never measure.

Let my life show forth thy praise.

1 Jesus, lover of my soul,

Let me to thy bosom fly, AVhile the billows near me roll,

While the tempest still is high; Hide me, O, my JSavior, hide,

Till the storm of life is past, Safe into the haven guide, —

O, receive my soul at last.

2 Other refuge have I none,

Hangs my helpless soul on thee! Leave, O, leave me not alone,

Still support and comfort me; All my trust on tliee is stayed,

All my help from thee I bring, Cover my defenseless head

With the Bhadovv of tliy wing.

3 Thou, O Clirist, art all I want,

Boundless love in thee I find, Raise the fallen, cheer the faint.

Heal the sick and lead the blind. Just and holy is thy name,

Prince of Peace and Righteousness; Most unworthy, Lord, I am,

Thou art full of love and grace.

1 Kock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in thee; Let the water and the blood, From thy riven side which flowed. Be of sin the double cure ; Cleanse me from its guilt and power.

2 Not the labor of my hands Can fulfill the law's demands; Could my zeal no respite know Could my tears forever flow. All for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and thou alone.

3 Nothing in my hand I bring, Simply to thy cross I cling; Naked, come to thee for dress; Helpless, look to thee for grace; Foul, 1 to the fountain fly; Wash me. Savior, or I die.

1 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,

Ye soldiers of the cross; Lift high his royal banner,

It must not suffer loss: From victory unto victory

His army sliall he lead. Till every foe is'vanquished

And Christ is Lord indeed.

2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,

The trumpet call obey; Forth to tlie mighty conflict,

In this his glorious day : "Ye that are men, now serve him,"

Against unnumbered foes; Your courage rise witli danger.

And strength to strength oppose.

3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus, Stand in his strength alone;

The arm of flesh will fail you, Ye dare not trust your own :

Put on the Gospel armor.

Each piece put on with prayer;

Where duty calls, or danger. Be never wanting there.

4 Stand up, stand up for Jesus, The strife will not be long;

Tills day the noise of battle, The next the victor's song :

To him that overcometh A crown of life shall be ;

He with the King of glory Shall reign eternally.

GEOKOE DUFFIELD, JR.

He Leadeth Me. Key of D. 1 He leadeth me ! O, blessed thought ! O, words with heavenly comfort fraught I Whate'er I do, where'er I be. Still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me!

Refrain. He leadeth me ! he leadeth me ! By his own hand he leadeth me ; Plis faithful follower 1 would be, For by his hand he leadeth me !

2 Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom, Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom, By waters still, o'er troubled sea — Still 'tis his hand that leadeth me 1

3 Lord, I would clasp thy hand in mine. Nor ever murmur nor repine — Content, whatever lot I see.

Since 'tis my God that leadeth me!

1 How firrn a foundation, yon saints of the Lord, Is laid for your faith in his excellent Word! What more can he say than to you he has said, You who unto Jesus for refuge have fled?

2 In every condition, in sickness, in health, In poverty's vale, or abounding in wealth; At home and abroad, on the land, on the sea.

As your days may demand, so your succor shall be.

3 Fear not — I am with you; O be not dismayed! I, I am your God, and will still give you aid; I'll strengtiien you, help you, and cause you to stand, Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.

4 When through the deep waters I cause you to go. The rivers of sorrow shall not you o'erflow:

For I will be with yon, your troubles to bless. And sanctify to you your deepest distress.

5 When through fiery trials your pathway shall lie, My grace, all-sufficient, shall be your supply: The flame shall not hurt you; I only design Your dross to consume, and your gold to refine.

6 E'en down to old age all my people shall prove My sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love;

And when hoary hairs shall their temples adorn. Like lambs they shall still in my bosom be borne.

Bethany. Key of O.

1 Nearer, my God, to thee,

Nearer to thee ! E'en though it be a cross

That raiseth me ; Still all my song shall be, Nearer, my God, to thee,

Nearer to thee!

2 Though like the wanderer,

Daylight all gone. Darkness be over me, My rest a stone;

Yet in my dreams I 'd be Nearer, my God, to thee — Nearer to thee !

3 There let the way appear,

Steps unto heaven ; All that thou senrie.-<t me,

In mercy given ; Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to thee

Nearer to thee.

4 Then, with my waking thoughts

Bright with thy praise.

Out of my stony griefs,

Bethel I'll raise; So by my woes to be Nearer, my God, to thee —

Nearer to thee.

5 Or, if on joyful wing.

Cleaving the sky Sun, moon, ami stars forgot,

Upward I fly; Still all my song shall bc^ Nearer, my (iod, to thee.

Nearer to thee.

MltS. S. F. ADAMS.

What hast Thou done for Me ? Key oj C.

1 I gave my life for thee, My precious blood I shed,

That thou might ransomed be, And quickened from the dead ;

1 gave, I gave my life for thee. What hast thou given for me?

2 My Father's house of light, My glory-circled throne,

I left for earthly night,

For wand'rings sad and lone; I left, I left it all for thee, Hast thou left aught for me?

3 I suffered much for thee, More than thy tongue can tell.

Of bit' rest agony.

To rescue thee from hell ; I've borne, I've borne it all for thee, What hast thou borne for me ?

4 And I liave brought to thee, Down from my home above,

Salvation full and free,

My pardon and my love. I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee ; What hast thou brought to me ?

Tarry with Me. Key of Eb.

1 Tarry with me, O my Savior,

For the day is passing by ; See, the shades of evening gather, . And the night is drawing nigh.

SELECT HYMNS.

Chorus. Tarry with me, blessed Jesus ;

Leave me not till morning light, For I 'm lonely here without thee —

Tarry with me through the night.

2 Many friends were gathered round me, In the bright days of the past;

But the grave has closed above them, And I linger liere at last.

3 Deeper, deeper grow the shadows; Paler now tlie glowing west ;

Swift the night of death advances — Shall it be the night of rest?

4 Feeble, trembling, fainting, dying, Lord, I cast myself on thee;

Tarry with me through the darkness ! While I sleep, still watch by me.

5 Tarry with me, O my Savior ! Lay my head upon thy breast,

Till the morning; then awake me — Morning of eternal rest?

DORRNANCE. J^ey of F.

1 Yes, for me, for me he careth With a brother's tender care ;

Yes, with me, with me he shareth Every burden, every fear.

2 Yes, o'er me, o'er me watcheth. Ceaseless watcheth, night and day,

Yes, e'en me, e'en me he snatcheth from the perils of the way.

3 Yes, for me he standeth pleading At the mercy-seat above ;

Ever for me interceding, Constant in untiring love.

155

4 Thus I wait for his returning, Singing all the way to heaven :

Such the joyful song of morning, Such the tranquil song of even.

We SHALii Know. Key of Eh.

1 When the mists have rolled in splendor From the beauty of the hills.

And the sunsliine, warm and tender, Falls in kisses on the rills ;

We may read love's shining letter In the rainbow of the spray,

We shall know each other better When the mists have cleared away.

Refrain. We shall know as we are known, Never more to walk alone. In the dawning of the morning, When the mists have cleared away.

2 If we are in human blindness, And forget that we are dust;

If we miss the law of kindness, AVhen we struggle to be just ;

Snowy wings of peace shall cover All the plain that hides away,

When the weary watch is over. And the mists have cleared away.

3 When the mists have risen above ns, As our Father knows his own,

Face to face with those that love us. We shall know as Ave are known;

Low beyond the orient meadows. Floats the golden fringe of day;

Heart to heart, we bide the shadows, Till the mists have cleared away.

156

I Love to Tell the Stoky. Key of Ah.

1 I love to tell tlie story

Of unseen tilings above, Of Jesus and his glory,

Of Jesus and his love ; I love to tell the story,

Eecause I know 'tis true; It satisfies my longings

As nothing else can do.

Chorus.

I love to tell the story, 'T will be nay theme in glory, .To tell the old, old story Of Jesus and his love.

2 I love to tell the story ;

'T is pleasant to repeat What seems, each time I tellit,

More wonderfully sweet. I love to tell the story ;

For some have never heard The message of salvation

From God's own holy Word.

3 I love to tell the story ;

For those who know it best Seem hungering and thirsting

To hear it like the rest. And when, in scenes of glory,

I sing the new, new song, 'Twill be — the old, old story

That I have loved so long.

SELECT HTMNS,

Shall we Gather? Key of Eb.

1 Shall we gather at the river,

Wiiere bright angel feet have trod, With its crystal tide forever Flowing by the throne of God ?

Chorus.

Yes, we '11 gather at the river, The beautiful, the beautiful river;

Gather with the saints at the river That flows by the throne of God.

2 On the margin of the river. Washing up its silver spray.

We will walk and worship ever. All the happy, golden day.

3 Ere we reach the shining river, Lay we every burden down;

Grace our spirits will deliver, And provide a robe and crown.

'T IS Keligiow.

1 'T is religion that can give Sweetest ])leasure while we live; 'T is religion must supply Solid comfort when we die.

2 After death, its joys will be Lasting as eternity !

Be the living God my friend, Then my bliss shall never end.

Eest. Key oj D.

1 Asleep in Jesus ! Blessed sleep, From which none ever wakes to weep ; A calm and undisturbed repose, Unbroken by the last of foes.

2 Asleep in Jesus ! O how sweet To be for such a slumber meetl With holy confidence to sing That death has lost its venomed sting.

3 Asleep in Jesus ! Peaceful rest. Whose waking is supremely blest; No fear, no woe shall dim the hour That manifests the Savior's power.

4 Asleep in Jesus I O for me May such a blissful refuge be ; Securely shall my ashes lie,

And wait the summons from on high.

5 Asleep in Jesus ! Far from thee Thy kindred and their graves may be ; But thine is still a blessed sleep, From which none ever wake to weep.

Old Hundred. Key of G.

1 From all that dwell below the skies Let the Creator's praise arise ; Let the Eedeemer's name be sung Through every land, by every tongue.

2 Eternal are thy mercies, Lord ; Eternal truth attends thy word; Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore, Till suns shall rise and set no more

Just as I am. Key of Eb.

1 Just as I am — without one plea, But that thy blood was shed for me, And that thou biddest nie come to thee,

O Lamb of God, I come.

2 Just as I am, and waiting not To rid my soul of one dark blot — To thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot,

O Lamb of God, I come.

3 Just as I am, though tossed about With many a conflict, many a doubt, With fears within, and foes without,

O Lamb of God, I come.

4 Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind, Sight, riches, healing of the mind, Yea, all I need, in thee to find,

O Lamb of God, I come.

5 Just as am, thou wilt receive. Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve, Because thy promise I believe —

O Lamb of God, I come.

6 Just as I am — thy love unknown Has broken every barrier down ; Now to be thine, yea, thine alone,

O Lamb of God, I come.

HouK OF Prayer. Key of D.

Sweet hour of prayer ! sweet hour of prayer ! That calls me from a world of care, And bids me at my Father's throne Make all my wants and wishes known! In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief. And oft escaped the tempter's snare, By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.

SELECT HYMNS.

Sweet hour of prayer ! sweet hour of prayer ! The joy I feel, the bliss I share, Of those whose anxious spirits burn With strong desires for thy return. With such I hasten to the place. Where God my Savior shows his face. And gladly take my station there. And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer.

De Fleury. Key of O.

1 My gracious Bedeemer I love 1 His praises aloud I '11 proclaim,

And join with the armies above To shout his adorable name.

To gaze on his glories divine Shall be my eternal employ.

And feel them incessantly shine, My boundless, inefiable joy.

2 Your palaces, scepters, and crowns, Your pride witli disdain I survey,

Your pomps are but shadows and sounds, And pass in a moment away.

The crown that my Savior bestows Yon permanent sun shall outshine;

My joy everlastingly flows — My God, my Bedeemer, is mine.

Iowa. Key of Bh.

1 We speak of the realms of the blest. That country so bright and so fair.

And oft are its glories confessed. But what must it be to be there?

2 We speak of its pathways of gold, Of its walls decked with jewels so rare.

Of its wonders and pleasures untold. But what must it be to be there?

157^

3 We speak of its freedom from sin, From sorrow, temptation, and care,

From trials without and within, But what must it be to be there?

4 O Lord, in this valley of woe. Our spirits for heaven prepare ;

Then shortly we also shall know And feel what it is to be there.

What a Friend is Jesus 1 Key of F.

1 What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear 1

What a privilege to carry

Every thing to God in prayer.

O, what peace we often forfeit I O, what needless pain we bear I

All because we do not carry . Every thing to God in praver.

2 Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere?

We should never be discouraged, Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness. Take it to the Lord in prayer.

3 Are we weak and heavy laden, Cumbered with a load of care?

Precious Savior, still our refuge — Take it to tlie Lord in prayer.

Do thy friends desi)ise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer;

In his arms he '11 take and shield thee — Thou wilt find a solace there. .
