Church     Hymns 

NEW    EDITION,    CONTAINING    658    HYMNS. 


The  present  New  and  Revised  Edition  of  CHURCH  HYMNS  has  occupied  the  careful  attention 
a  Committee  appointed  for  the  purpose  for  a  period  of  over  five  years. 

A  New  Book. — The  result  of  their  labours  is  not  merely  a  New  Edition  of  the  old  CHURC 
HYMNS,  but  in  reality  a  New  Book.  Some  250  Hymns  included  in  the  Old  Edition  have  been  omitte 
and  about  320  others  substituted  in  their  place.  The  number  of  Hymns  for  Children  has  been  mc 
than' doubled. 

Text.  —  Special  care  and  attention  have  been  bestowed  on  the  Text  of  the  Hymns,  and  it  is  confiden 
believed  that  the  present  Hymn  book  contains  the  most  accurate  reproduction  of  the  authors'  texts  to 
found  anyw  here. 

Music. — The  general  superintendence  of  the  musical  portion  has  been  entrusted  to  Dr.  C.  H.  LI03 
Precentor  and  Musical  Instructor  of  Eton  College.  Hymns  have,  as  far  as  possible,  been  connected  w 
those  tunes  with  which  they  are  popularly  associated.  The  number  of  alternative  tunes  is  exceptio 
a!ly  large.  A  special  feature  has  been  made  of  Plain  Song  Tunes,  some  sixty  of  which,  select 
and  harmonised  by  Dr.  Basil  Harwood,  of  Christ  Church,  Oxford,  have  been  included.  It  should  be  not< 
however,  that  in  all  cases  where  a  Plain  Song  Tune  has  been  allotted  to  any  hymn,  an  alternati 
modern  tune  is  also  given. 


A  Full  List  of  Editions  and  Styles  of  Binding  may  be  had  on  application.

by  Dr.  S.  S.  Wesley. 

The  Editor  expresses  his  regret  if  through  inadvertence  any  tunes  in  which 
copyright  exists  have  been  printed  without  permission. 

Some  250  hymns  included  in  the  old  edition  have  been  omitted,  carrying 
with  them  a  number  of  tunes  for  which  there  was  no  further  need.  At  the  same 
time  some  tunes,  which  had  failed  to  establish  themselves  in  popular  favour,  have 
been  replaced  by  others  which  it  is  hoped  may  prove  more  attractive.  In  the  task 
of  selection  and  rejection  the  Editor  has  had  the  assistance  of  the  Rev.  Canon 
Hutton  and  the  Rev.  W.  Abbott,  two  members  of  the  Committee  who  are  specially 
acquainted,  the  one  with  the  requirements  of  Cathedral  worship,  and  the  other 
with  the  practical  needs  of  ordinary  parishes.  If  here  and  there  a  tune  is  found 
which  has  no  special  musical  value,  it  has  been  inserted  on  account  of  associations 
which  could  not  be  ignored.  For  the  harmonies  the  Editor  is  mainly  responsible. 
Where  he  has  altered  those  of  the  earlier  edition,  his  aim  has  been  to  make  the 
different  voice  parts  more  interesting,  and  the  effect  fuller.  Open  notes  have 
generally  been  substituted  for  the  black  notes  of  the  old  edition,  as  being 
easier  to  read ;  and,  with  a  few  special  exceptions,  double  bars  have  been  placed 
to  correspond  with  the  end  of  each  line  of  the  words. 

A  special  feature  has  been  made  of  Plain  Song  tunes,  of  which  about  sixty 
have  been  included.  The  selection  and  harmonization  of  these  demanded 
technical  knowledge  of  an  exceptional  kind,  and  the  Editor  congratulates  himself 
on  having  secured  for  this  purpose  the  invaluable  assistance  of  Dr.  Basil 
Harwood,  of  Christ  Church,  Oxford. 

At  the  request  of  the  Committee  the  Editor  has  added  expression  marks ; 
but  they  are  intended  rather  as  suggestions  than  as  authoritative  interpretations. 

The  Editor  offers  his  warm  thanks  to  Mr.  Henry  King  for  much  valuable 
advice  on  many  difficult  points ;  and  he  is  deeply  grateful  to  his  niece,  Miss 
Kathleen  Lloyd,  for  her  ungrudging  help  in  copying  tunes,  verifying  references, 
correcting  proofs,  preparing  indexes,  and  supplying  composers'  dates. 

The  labour  expended  on  the  previous  edition  by  the  late  Sir  Arthur  Sullivan 
and  his  colleague  Mr.  J.  W.  Elliott  is  cordially  acknowledged.  The  present 
Editor  is  very  conscious  of  the  imperfection  of  his  own  work  ;  but  he  is  not 
without  hope  that  this  book  may  in  some  ways  tend  to  the  advancement  of  good 
and  worthy  music  in  the  service  of  the  Church.

mf     4  T  Thy  feet,  0  Christ,  we  lay 
^  Y     Thine  own  gift  of  this  new  day 
Doubt  of  what  it  holds  in  store 
Makes  us  crave  Thine  aid  the  more  ; 
p  Lest  it  prove  a  time  of  loss, 

Mark  it,  Saviour,  with  Thy  Cross. 

mf  If  it  flow  on  calm  and  bright, 
Be  Thyself  our  chief  delight ; 
If  it  bring  unknown  distress, 
Good  is  all  that  Thou  canst  bless  ; 
p  Only,  while  its  hours  begin, 
Pray  we,  keep  them  clear  of  sin. 


mf  We  in  part  our  weakness  know, 
And  in  part  discern  our  foe  ; 
Well  for  us,  before  Thine  eyes 
All  our  danger  open  lies  ; 
p  Turn  not  from  us,  while  we  plead 
Thy  compassions  and  our  need. 

mf  Fain  would  we  Thy  word  embrace, 
Live  each  moment  on  Thy  grace, 

cr  All  ourselves  to  Thee  consign, 
Fold  up  all  our  wills  in  Thine, 
/  Think,  and  speak,  and  do,  and  be 
Simply  that  which  pleases  Thee. 


p  Hear  us,  Lord,  and  that  right  soon  ; 

Hear,  and  grant  the  choicest  boon 
cr  That  Thy  love  can  e'er  impart, 

Loyal  singleness  of  heart ; 
/  So  shall  this  and  all  our  days, 

Christ  our  God,  show  forth  Thy  praise.

PART  I. 

/    i  WAKE,  my  soul,  and  with  the  sun 
XJL     Thy  daily  stage  of  duty  run ; 
Shake  off  dull  sloth,  and  joyful  rise 
To  pay  thy  morning  sacrifice. 

mf  Thy  precious  time  mis- spent,  redeem ; 
Each  present  day  thy  last  esteem; 
Improve  thy  talent  with  due  care ; 
For  the  great  day  thyself  prepare. 

In  conversation  be  sincere ; 
Keep  conscience  as  the  noon -tide  clear; 
Think  how  all -seeing  God  thy  ways 
And  all  thy  secret  thoughts  surveys. 

/  By  influence  of  the  light  divine, 
Let  thy  own  light  to  others  shine ; 
Reflect  all  heaven's  propitious  rays, 
In  ardent  love  and  cheerful  praise. 

Wake,  and  lift  up  thyself,  my  heart, 
And  with  the  Angels  bear  thy  part, 
Who  all  night  long  unwearied  sing 
High  praise  to  the  eternal  King.     Amen. 

PART  II. 

/    A  LL  praise  to  Thee,  Who  safe  has  kept, 
]\_     And  hast  refreshed  me  whilst  I  slept ; 
Grant,  Lord,  when  I  from  death  shall  wake, 
I  may  of  endless  light  partake ! 

mf  Lord,  I  my  vows  to  Thee  renew ; 
Disperse  my  sins  as  morning  dew ; 
Guard  my  first  springs  of  thought  and  will, 
And  with  Thyself  my  spirit  fill. 

Direct,   control,  suggest,  this  day, 
All  I  design,  or  do,  or  say; 
That  all  my  powers  with  all  their  might 
In  Thy  sole  glory  may  unite. 

/  Praise  God,  from  Whom  all  blessings  flow; 
Praise  Him,  all  creatures  here  below ; 
Praise  Him  above,  ye  heavenly  Host ; 
Praise  Father,   Son,   and  Holy  Ghost!     Amen.

And  labour  on  at  Thy  command, 
And  offer  all  our  works  to  Thee. 

Give  us  to  bear  Thy  easy  yoke, 

And  every  moment  watch  and  pray  ; 

And  still  to  things  eternal  look, 
And  hasten  to  Thy  glorious  day ;

And  run  our  course  with  even  joy, 

And  closely  walk  with  Thee  to  heaven.     Amen.

■U-l-     Of  quiet  sleep  and  rest, 
For  all  the  joy  of  morning  light, 
Thy  Holy  Name  be  blest. 

Now  with  the  new-born  day  I  give 

Myself  anew  to  Thee,

And  what  Thou  wiliest  be.

Thy  glory  may  I  seek  in  all, 
Do  all  in  Jesus'  Name. 

My  Father,  for  His  sake,  I  pray, 
Thy  child  accept  and  bless  ;

J-i      Our    wakening    and    uprising 

prove ; 
Through  sleep  and  darkness  safely 

brought, 
Eestored   to    life,    and    power,    and

New  mercies,  each  returning  day,

New  perils  past,  new  sins  forgiven, 
New  thoughts  of  God,  new  hopes  of 
heaven. 

If  on  our  daily  course  our  mind 
Be  set  to  hallow  all  we  find, 
New  treasures  still,  of  countless  price, 
God  will  provide  for  sacrifice.

As  more  of  heaven  in  each  we  see  ;

Some  softening  gleam    of  love    and 

prayer 
Shall  dawn  on  every  cross  and  care. 

The  trivial  round,  the  common  task, 
Will  furnish  all  we  ought  to  ask, 
Room  to  deny  ourselves,  a  road 
To  bring  us  daily  nearer  God. 

Only,  0  Lord,  in  Thy  dear  love, 
Fit  us  for  perfect  rest  above  ; 
And  help  us,  this  and  every  day, 
To  live  more  nearly  as  we  pray.

Once  again  to  God  we  bring 
Prayer's  most  lowly  offering  ;

In  Thy  strength  alone  we  stand  ; 
P  God  of  mercy,  God  of  might !

Folded  be  Thy  tender  love ;

J\.     The  sick,  0  Lord,  around  Thee  lay ; 
Oh,  in  what  divers  pains  they  met ! 
Oh,  with  what  joy  they  went  away ! 

Once  more  'tis  eventide,  and  we 

Oppressed  with  various  ills  draw  near  : 
What  if  Thy  form  we  cannot  see  ? 
cr      We  know  and  feel  that  Thou  art  here. 

p  0  Saviour  Christ,  our  woes  dispel ; 

For  some  are  sick,  and  some  are  sad, 
And  some  have  never  loved  Thee  well, 
And  some  have  lost  the  love  they  had  ; 

And  some  are  pressed  with  worldly  care  ; 

And  seme  are  tried  with  sinful  doubt  ; 
And  some  such  grievous  passions  tear 

That  only  Thou  canst  cast  them  out ; 

And  some  have  found  the  world  is  vain, 
Yet  from  the  world  they  break  not  free  ; 

And  some  have  friends  who  give  them  pain, 
Yet  have  not  sought  a  friend  in  Thee. 

And  none,  0  Lord,  have  perfect  rest, 
For  none  are  wholly  free  from  sin  ; 

And  they  who  fain  would  serve  Thee  best 
Are  conscious  most  of  wrong  within. 

mf  0   Saviour  Christ,  Thou  too  art  Man ; 

Thou  hast  been  troubled,  tempted,  tried; 
Thy  kind  but  searching  glance  can  scan 
The  very  wounds  that  shame  would  hide ; 

Thy  touch  has  still  its  ancient  power  ; 
r>o  word  from  Thee  can  fruitless  fall  ; 
p  Hear,  in  this  solemn  evening  hour, 

And  in  Thy  mercy  heal  us  all.     Amen.

Evening- 

mf  TUTHEB,  by  Thy  love  and  power 
_T      Comes  again  the  evening  hour : 
Light  has  vanished,  labours  cease, 
Weary  creatures  rest  in  peace  ; 
Thou,  Whose  genial  dews  distil 

On  the  lowliest  weed  that  grows, 
Father,  guard  our  couch  from  ill, 

Lull  Thy  children  to  repose : 
We  to  Thee  ourselves  resign, 
Let  our  latest  thoughts  be  Thine. 

Saviour,  to  Thy  Father  bear 
This  our  feeble  evening  prayer: 
Thou  hast  seen  how  oft  to-day 
We  like  sheep  have  gone  astray ; 
Wordly  thoughts  and  thoughts  of  pride . 

Wishes  to  Thy  Cross  untrue, 
Secret  faults  and  undescried 

Meet  Thy  spirit-piercing  view ; 
Blessed  Saviour,  yet  through  Thee 
Pray  that  these  may  pardoned  be. 

p  Holy  Spirit,  breathing  balm, 
Fall  on  us  in  evening's  calm  ; 
Yet  awhile,  before  we  sleep, 
We  with  Thee  will  vigils  keep. 
Lead  us  on  our  sins  to  muse, 

Give  us  truest  penitence  ; 
Then  the  love  of  God  infuse, 

Breathing  humble  confidence  ; 
Melt  our  spirits,  mould  our  will, 
Soften,  strengthen,  comfort  still. 

mf  Blessed  Trinity,  be  near 

Through  the  hours  of  darkness  drear  ; 
Then  when  shrinks  the  lonely  heart, 
Thou,  0  God,  most  present  art. 
Father,  Son,  and  Holy  Ghost, 

Watch  o'er  our  defenceless  head  ; 
Let  Thy  Angels'  guardian-host 
Keep  all  evil  from  our  bed, 
cr  Till  the  flood  of  morning  rays 
/  Wakes  us  to  a  song  of  praise.     Amen.

mf  TTEAR    our   prayer,    0    heavenly 
■"■     Father, 

Ere  we  lay  us  down  to  sleep ; 
Bid  Thine  Angels,  pure  and  holy, 

Eound  our  bed  their  vigils  keep. 

Heavy  though  our  sins,  Thy  mercy 
Far  outweighs  them  every  one  ; 

Down  before  the  Cross  we  cast  them, 
Trusting  in  Thy  help  alone. 


mf  None  can  measure  out  Thy  patience 
By  the  spau  of  human  thought ; 
None  can  bound  the  tender  mercies 
Which  Thy  Holy  Son  has  bought. 

p  Pardon  all  our  past  transgressions, 
cr       Give  us  strength  for  days  to  come ; 
mf  Guide    and    guard    us    with    Thy 
blessing 
dim       Till  Thine  Angels  bear  us  home. 


p  Keep  us  through  this  night  of  peril  /  Honour,  glory,  might,  dominion, 
Safe  beneath  its  sheltering  shade  ;  To  the  Father  and  the  Son, 

Take  us  to  Thy  rest,  we  pray  Thee,  With  the  Everlasting  Spirit, 

When  our  pilgrimage  is  made.  While  eternal  ages  run.     Amen.

The  light  and  darkness  are  of  His  disposing,

Thy  praise  pursuing.

Oh  may  no  earth-born  cloud  arise 
To  hide  Thee  from  Thy  servant's  eyes. 


p  When  the  soft  dews  of  kindly  sleep 
My  wearied  eyelids  gently  steep, 
Be  my  last  thought,  how  sweet  to  rest 
For  ever  on  my  Saviour's  breast. 

mf  Abide  with  me  from  morn  till  eve, 
For  without  Thee  I  cannot  live  ; 
Abide  with  me  when  night  is  nigh, 
For  without  Thee  I  dare  not  die. 

p  If  some  poor  wandering  child  of  Thine 
Have  spurned,  to-day,  the  voice  divine, 
Now,  Lord,  the  gracious  work  begin ; 
Let  him  no  more  lie  down  in  sin. 

Watch  by  the  sick ;    enrich  the  poor 
With  blessings  from  Thy  boundless  store ; 
Be  every  mourner's  sleep  to-night 
Like  infant's  slumbers,  pure  and  light.

Evening, 


mf  rpHE  day  departs  ; 

-L      Our  souls  and  hearts 
Long  for  that  better  morrow, 
When  Christ  shall  set  His  people  free 
From  every  care  and  sorrow. 

The  sunshine  bright 
Is  lost  in  night ; 
0  Lord,  Thyself  unveiling, 
Shine  on  our  souls  with  beams  of  love, 
All  darkness  there  dispelling. 

Be  Thou  still  nigh, 

With  sleepless  eye, 
While  all  around  are  sleeping, 
And  Angel-guards,  at  Thy  command, 
Afar  all  danger  keeping. 

The  land  above, 

Of  peace  and  love, 
No  earthly  beams  need  brighten ; 
For  all  its  borders  Christ  Himself 
Doth  with  His  glory  lighten. 

/  May  we  be  there, 

That  joy  to  share, 
Glad  Hallelujahs  singing : 
With  all  the  ransomed  evermore 
Our  joyful  praises  bringing. 

p  Lord  Jesu,  Thou 

Our  Refuge  now, 
Forsake  Thy  servants  never ; 
cr  Uphold  and  guide  that  we  may  stand 
Before  Thy  throne  for  ever.     Amen.

Evening. 

p  rpHE  day  is  gently  sinking  to  a  close, 

Fainter  and  yet  more  faint  the  sunlight  glows 
mf  0  Brightness  of  Thy  Father's  glory, — Thou 
Eternal  Light  of  Light,  be  with  us  now ; 
Where  Thou  art  present,  darkness  cannot  be, 
Midnight  is  glorious  noon,  0  Lord,  with  Thee. 

p  Our  changeful  lives  are  ebbing  to  an  end, 

Onward  to  darkness  and  to  death  we  tend ; 
mf  0  Conqueror  of  the  grave,  be  Thou  our  Guide, 
Be  Thou  our  Light  in  death's  dark  eventide ; 
Then  in  our  mortal  hour  will  be  no  gloom, 
No  sting  in  death,  no  terror  in  the  tomb. 

mf  Thou,  Who  in  darkness  walking  didst  appear 

Upon  the  waves,  and  Thy  disciples  cheer, 
p  Come,  Lord,  in  lonesome  days,  when  storms  assail, 
And  earthly  hopes,  and  human  sucoours  fail ; 
When  all  is  dark,  may  we  behold  Thee  nigh, 
And  hear  Thy  voice, — (/) "  Fear  not,  for  it  is  I." 

p  The  weary  world  is  mouldering  to  decay, 
Its  glories  wane,  its  pageants  fade  away ; 
mf  In  that  last  sunset,  when  the  stars  shall  fall, 
May  we  arise,  awakened  by  Thy  call, 
With  Thee,  0  Lord,  for  ever  to  abide 
In  that  blest  day  which  has  no  eventide.     Amen.

J_      The  darkness  falls  at  Thy  behest ; 
/  To  Thee  our  morning  hymns  ascended, 
Thy  praise  shall  hallow  now  our  rest. 

mf  We  thank  Thee  that  Thy  Church  unsleeping, 
"While  earth  rolls  onward  into  light, 
Through  all  the  world  her  wratch  is  keeping, 
And  rests  not  now  by  day  or  night. 

As  o'er  each  continent  and  island 

The  dawn  leads  on  another  day, 
The  voice  of  prayer  is  never  silent, 

Nor  dies  the  strain  of  praise  away. 

The  sun,  that  bids  us  rest,  is  waking 
Our  brethren  'neath  the  western  sky, 

And  hour  by  hour  fresh  lips  are  making 
Thy  w7ondrous  doings  heard  on  high. 

/  So  be  it,  Lord ;  Thy  throne  shall  never, 
Like  earth's  proud  empires,  pass  away  ; 
But  stand,  and  rule,  and  grow  for  ever, 

Till  all  Thy  creatures  own  Thy  sway.     Amen.

Upon  the  fragrance  of  the  flowers 

The  dews  of  evening  lie : 
Before  Thy  throne,  0  Lord  of  heaven, 

We  kneel  at  close  of  day ; 
Look  on  Thy  children  from  on  high, 

And  hear  us  while  we  pray. 

The  sorrows  of  Thy  servants,  Lord,

Before  Thy  mercy  rise :

Upon  the  darkness  rolls; 
With  hopes  of  future  glory  chase 

The  shadows  on  our  souls.

So  fade  within  our  heart 
The  hopes  in  earthly  love  and  joy, 
That  one  by  one  depart : 
cr  Slowly  the  bright  stars,  one  by  one, 
Within  the  heavens  shine  ; 
Give  us,  0  Lord,  fresh  hopes  in  heaven, 
And  trust  in  things  divine. 

p  Let  peace,  0  Lord,  Thy  peace,  0  God, 

Upon  our  souls  descend  ; 
From  midnight  fears  and  perils  Thou 

Our  trembling  hearts  defend; 
Give  us  a  respite  from  our  toil, 

Calm  and  subdue  our  woes  ; 
Through  the  long  day  we  labour,  Lord,-

p  rpHE  sun  is  sinking  fast, 

J-      The  daylight  dies  ; 
/  Let  love  awake,  and  pay 
Her  evening  sacrifice. 

p  As  Christ  upon  the  Crots 
His  head  inclined, 
And  to  His  Father's  hands 
His  parting  soul  resigned, 

mf  So  now  herself  my  soul 
Would  wholly  give 
Into  His  sacred  charge, 
In  Whom  all  spirits  live ; 

So  now  beneath  His  eye 

Would  calmly  rest, 
Without  a  wish  or  thought 

Abiding  in  the  breast, 

Save  that  His  will  be  done, 

Whate'er  betide, 
Dead  to  herself,  and  dead 

In  Him  to  all  beside. 

/  Thus  would  I  live ;  yet  now 
Not  I,  but  He 
In  all  His  power  and  love 
Henceforth  alive  in  me. 

One  Sacred  Trinity ! 

One  Lord  Divine  ! 
May  I  be  ever  His, 

And  He  for  ever  mine.     Amen.

mf  mHEOUGH  the  changes  of  the  day 
Kept  by  Thy  sustaining  power, 
Offerings  of  thanks  we  pay, 

Father,  in  this  evening  hour. 
Praises  to  Thy  Name  belong, 

Source  and  Giver  of  all  good ; 
While  we  lift  our  evening  song, 
Fill  our  souls  with  gratitude. 

From  the  dangers  which  have  frowned, 

From  the  snares  in  secret  set, 
We  have,  through  Thy  mercy,  found 

Safety  and  deliverance  yet. 
All  the  day  that  mercy  hath 

Guarded  us  from  ills  untold, 
All  the  day  along  our  path 

Scattered  blessings  manifold. 

Spirit,  Who  hast  been  our  Light 

And  the  Guardian  of  our  way, 
Let  Thy  mercy  and  Thy  might 

Keep  us  to  another  day : 
Help  us,  Father,  so  to  spend 

All  our  moments  as  they  flee, 
That,  when  life  and  labour  end, 

We  may  fall  asleep  in  Thee.     Amen.

And  round  us.when  we  speak  Thy  Name,  We  say,  "  A  perfect  God  is  He,

Till  e"en  the  dull  cold  work  of  earth,  the  earth  which  Christ  hath  trod, 
Shall  be  itself  a  silent  prayer,  to  raise  us  up  to  God. 
So  lead  us  on  to  heaven,  where  in  Thy  Presence  blest 
The  wicked  cease  from  troubling,  and  the  weary  are  at  rest, 
Where  faith  is  lost  in  vision,  where  love  hath  no  alloy, 
And  through  eternity  there  flows  the  deepening  stream  of  joy.

No  sighs  shall  mingle  with  the  songs 
Resounding  from  immortal  tongues.

No  cares  to  break  the  long  repose  ; 
No  midnight  shade,  no  clouded  sun, 
But  sacred,  high,  eternal  noon.

And  thus  on  thee  most  glorious 

A  triple  light  was  given.

And  living  water  flowing 

With  soul-refreshing  streams.

Great  Source  of  all,  Creation's  might, 
Who  call'st  earth's  darkness  into  light. 

This  day  Thy  Well-Beloved  Son 
Rose  from  the  dead — His  victory  won ; 
This  day  the  Holy  Spirit  came 
With  fiery  tongues  of  cloven  flame. 

Oh  may  our  weary  hearts  this  day 
Be  cheered  and  blest  by  love's  sweet  ray ; 
That  we,  through  love,  may  praise  aright 
The  great  First  Source  of  life  and  light. 

Father,  Who  by  Thy  power  benign, 
In  man  Thine  Image  didst  enshrine ; 
With  Thy  great  love  our  spirits  fill 
That  heart  and  hand  may  do  Thy  will. 

Jesu,  with  Whom  we  here  would  be, 
Dead  unto  sin,  entombed  with  Thee ; 
By  love  inflamed  may  we  arise 
Each  unto  Thee  a  sacrifice. 

Spirit  Divine,  in  Whom  we  live, 
To  us  Thy  holy  unction  give, 
Until  our  hearts  shall  burn  to  see 
Thy  love  which  binds  all  love  to  Thee. 

0  Great  and  Holy  Three  in  One, 

Father  and  Spirit  with  the  Son, 

Who  wrought  salvation's  mystery, 

Knit  all  our  hearts,  0  God,  to  Thee.     Amen.

To  show  Thy  love  by  morning  light, 
And  talk  of  all  Thy  truth  at  night.

No  mortal  care  shall  seize  my  breast; 
Oh  may  my  heart  in  tune  be  found, 
Like  David's  harp  of  solemn  sound  ! 


And  bless  His  works,  and  bless  His

Thy  works  of  grace,  how  bright  they 

shine ! 
How  deep  Thy  counsels,  how  divine ! 

And  I  shall  share  a  glorious  part, 
When  grace  hath  well  refined  my  heart , 
And  sweet  supplies  of  joy  are  shed, 
Like  holy  oil  to  cheer  my  head.

All  I  desired  or  wished  below, 
And  every  power  find  sweet  employ 
In  that  eternal  world  of  joy.     Amen.

MOKNING. 

wf  MOW  that  the  daylight  fills  the  sky, 

Lift  we  our  hearts  to  God  on  high, 
That  He  in  all  we  do  or  say 
Would  keep  us  free  from  harm  to-day. 

May  He  restrain  our  tongues,  lest  strife 
Break  forth  to  mar  the  peace  of  life  ; 
And  guard  with  watchful  care  our  eyes 
From  earth's  absorbing  vanities. 

Oh  may  our  inmost  hearts  be  pure, 
Our  thoughts  from  folly  kept  secure, 
The  pride  of  fleshly  sense  subdued 
By  temperate  use  of  drink  aud  food  ! 

So  when  the  daylight  leaves  the  sky, 
And  night's  dark  hours  once  more  are  nigh, 
May  we,  un soiled  by  sinful  stain, 
Sing  glory  to  our  God  again. 

/  All  praise  to  God  the  Father  be ; 
All  praise,  Eternal  Son,  to  Thee, 
Whom  with  the  Spirit  we  adore, 
One  God,  both  now  and  evermore.     Amen

Who  shed'st  through  night  Thy  searching  ray 
Who  very  Light  of  Light  art  known, 
And  heaven's  own  Light  to  earth  hast  shown, 

All-holy  Lord,  to  Thee  we  bend,

Our  night  with  quiet  slumbers  blest. 

Let  but  the  eyes  light  slumber  take, 
The  heart  to  Thee  be  aye  awake, 
Be  Thy  right  hand  upheld  above 
Thy  servants  resting  in  Thy  love. 

Our  Sun  and  Shield,  behold  from  high, 
Bid  all  the  powers  of  darkness  fly  ; 
Thy  servants  guard  and  guide  for  good, 
The  purchase  of  Thy  precious  Blood. 

Be  mindful  of  us,   Lord,  we  pray, 
Whilst  in  this  mortal  flesh  we  stay; 
Thou  only  canst  the  soul  defend, 
Be  present  with  us  to  the  end.     Amen.

MORNING. 

/  THIRST  day  of  days  !  wherein,  arrayed 
J-      In  light  and  beauty,  earth  was  made  ; 
And  life  to  give  us  from  the  dead 
Victorious  our  Creator  sped  ! 

Let  us  with  joyful  hearts  arise, 
And,  chasing  slumber  from  our  eyes, 
Right  early  seek  the  Lord  of  grace, 
As  erst  the  Prophet  sought  His  face ; 

fnf  That  He  may  hearken  to  our  prayer, 
Stretch  forth  His  arm  with  kindly  care, 
And  every  past  offence  forgiven, 
Restore  us  to  our  home  in  heaven; 

mf  And  as  on  this  His  sacred  day 
We  here  our  thankful  homage  pay 
Of  praise  and  prayer,  each  peaceful  hour 
May  o'er  us  ample  blessings  shower. 

2>  Father  of  majesty  and  light ! 
Put  every  evil  thought  to  flight ; 
From  deeds  unholy  and  impure 
Our  frames,  Thy  workmanship,  secure ; 

cr  That,  from  all  carnal  bondage  free, 
And  made  for  ever  pure,  to  Thee 
We  may  in  adoration  raise, 
Our  hope,  perpetual  songs  of  praise. 

/  Glory  to  God  the  Father  be ! 
Like  glory,  Only  Son,  to  Thee  ; 
And  to  the  Holy  Paraclete, 
Now  and  through  ages  infinite.     Amen.

At  Thy  word  the  shadows  fly, 
Morn  returns,  and  all  is  bright. 


/  Let  us  then  our  hearts  arouse,

Bids  us  haste  to  pay  our  vows, 
And  our  meek  confessions  make.

Thou,  the  Lord  of  light,  art  near  ;  Turn  on  us  Thy  healing  face  ;

Tells  that  day  will  soon  appear.  Unto  penitential  grace.

V     Thou  Brightness  of  Thy  Father's  face, 

Thou  Fountain  of  eternal  light, 

Whose  beams  disperse  the  shades  of  night ; 

Come,  Holy  Sun  of  heavenly  love, 
Shower  down  Thy  radiance  from  above  ; 
And  to  our  inward  hearts  convey 
The  Holy  Spirit's  cloudless  ray. 

May  faith,  deep  rooted  in  the  soul, 
Subdue  our  flesh,  our  miuds  control ; 
May  guile  depart,  and  discord  cease, 
And  all  within  be  joy  and  peace. 

So  gladly  let  us  pass  the  day. 
With  meekness  for  its  morning  ray, 
Our  faith  like  noontide  shining  bright, 
Our  souls  un dimmed  by  shades  of  night. 

/  Dawn's  glory  gilds  the  earth  and  skies ; 
Rise  on  us,  Heavenly  Glory,  rise  ;

May  not  slumber  more  :

And  the  light  of  Eden's  prime 

To  the  world  restore !

EVENING. 

mf    A  LL-Holy  Sovereign  of  the  sky, 

Whose  voice  this  day  enthroned  on  high 
Those  orbs  that  shine  so  bright  and  fair, 
And  Thy  Almighty  power  declare ;

The  morning  from  the  evening  tide  ; 
With  influence  sweet  the  earth  to  cheer, 
And  bless  with  grateful  change  the  year.

And  inward  darkness  chase  away ; 
Let  evil  flee  before  Thy  smile, 
And  sin  no  more  our  souls  defile.

MORNING. 

w/  QEE  the  golden  sun  arise ! 

Let  no  more  our  darkened  eyes 
Snare  us,  tangled  by  surprise 

In  the  maze  of  sin ! 
From  false  words  and  thoughts  impure 
Let  this  Light,  serene  and  sure, 
Keep  our  lips  without  secure, 

Keep  our  souls  within. 

So  may  we  the  day-time  spend, 
That,  till  life's  temptations  end, 
Tongue,  nor  hand,  nor  eye  offend  ! 

One,  above  us  all, 
Views  in  His  revealing  ray 
All  we  do,  and  think,  and  say, 
Watching  us  from  break  of  day 

Till  the  twilight  fall. 

p  Now  before  Thy  throne,  while  we 
Ask,  upon  our  bended  knee, 
That  this  blessing  granted  be, 
And  Thy  grace  implore  ; 

cr  Unto  God  the  Father,  Son, 
Holy  Spirit,  Three  in  One, 
One  in  Three,  be  glory  done, 

/  Now  and  evermore.     Amen.

EVENING. 

raj  f\  SOVEREIGN  Lord  of  Nature's  might, 
^     Who  badst  the  water's  birth  divide; 
Part  in  the  heavens  to  take  their  flight, 
And  part  in  ocean's  deep  to  hide ; 


These  low  obscured,  on  airy  wing 

Exalted  those,  that  either  race, 
Though  from  one  element  they  spring, 

Might  serve  Thee  in  a  different  place  ; 

Grant,  Lord,  that  we  Thy  servants  all, 
Saved  by  Thy  tide  of  cleansing  blood, 

No  more  'neath  sin's  dominion  fall, 

Nor  fear  the  thought  of  death's  dark  flood  \ 


Thy  varied  love  each  spirit  bless, 
The  humble  cheer,  the  high  control  ; 

Check  in  each  heart  its  proud  excess, 
But  raise  the  meek  and  contrite  soul ! 

This  boon,  0  Father,  we  entreat ; 

This  blessing  grant,  Eternal  Son  ; 
And  Holy  Ghost,  the  Paraclete  ; 

Both  now,  and  while  the  ages  run.     Amen,

MORNING.

^•J     Our  only  Hope,  in  mercy  given  ; 
Child  of  a  Virgin  meek  and  pure;

As  opening  days  new  duties  bring  ; 
That  with  the  light  our  life  may  be 
Renewed  and  sanctified  by  Thee.

/  0  Thou,  true  Light,  upon  us  shine  : 
Our  darkness  turn   to  light  divine. 

p  Within  us  grant  Thy  light  to  dwell ; 
And  from  our  souls  dark  sins  expel ; 
Cleanse  Thou  our  minds  from  stain  of  ill, 
And  with  Thy  peace  our  bosoms  fill. 

mf  To  us  strong  faith  for  ever  give, 
With  joyous  hope,  in  Thee  to  live; 
That  life's  rough  way  may  ever  be 
Made  strong  and  pure  by  charity. 

/  All  laud  to  God,  the  Father,  be  : 
All  laud,  Eternal  Son,  to  Thee  : 
All  laud,  as  is  for  ever  meet, 
To  God,  the  Holy  Paraclete.     Amen.

Our  minds  and  hearts  to  evil  ways  ; 
And  thoughts  of  ill,  unholy  seed, 
Are  ripening  into  word  and  deed  ; — 

To  us  Thy  promised  blessings  give, 
Beneath  Thy  grace  grant  us  to  live  : 
From  guilty  strife  Thy  flock  release, 
Make  fast  the  gentle  bands  of  peace. 

These  favours,  Lord,  of  Thee  we  pray, 
Thy  blessing  grant,  this  closing  day ; 
Sole  Sovereign  of  the  heavenly  Host,

EVENING.

"     Great  ruler  of  the  starry  sky, 
dim  Who,  robing  day  with  beauteous  light, 
Hast  clothed  in  soft  repose  the  night,

And  fit  for  toil  and  use  once  more  ;

Oh  help  us  sinners  as  we  raise 
To  Thee  our  votive  hymn  of  praise. 

/  To  Thee  our  hearts  their  music  bring, 
To  Thee  our  lips  in  concord  sing  : 
To  Thee  our  rapt  affections  soar, 
And  Thee  our  chastened  souls  adore. 

P  Lord,  when  the  parting  beams  of  day 

In  evening's  shadows  fade  away, 
cr  Let  faith  no  wildering  darkness  know, 
/  But  night  with  faith's  own  splendour  glow. 

mf  God  over  all,  of  mighty  sway, 

Shield  us,  great  Trinity,  we  pray, 
cr  Whom  with  the  Angels  we  adore,

PART  I. 

1. 

AY  of  wrath  !  Oh,  day  of  mourn- 
ing i 

See  fulfilled  the  Prophet's  warning, 
Heaven  and  earth  in  ashes  burning  ! 


D 


Oh,  what  fear  man's  bosom  rendeth, 
When  from  heaven  the  Judge  de- 

scendeth, 
On  Whose  sentence  all  dependeth  ! 

3. 
Wondrous  sound  the  trumpet  ningeth, 
Through  earth's  sepulchres  it  ringeth, 
All  before  the  throne  it  bringeth. 

4. 

Death  is  struck,  and  nature  quaking, 

All  creation  is  awaking, 

To  its  Judge  an  answer  making. 

5. 
Lo,  the  Book  exactly  worded, 
Wherein  all  hath  been  recorded  ; 
Thence  shall  judgment  be  awarded  : 

6. 

When  the  Judge  His  seat  attaineth, 
And  each  hidden  deed  arraigneth, 
Nothing  unavenged  remaineth. 

7. 
What  shall  I,  frail  man,  be  pleading  ! 
Who  for  me  be  interceding, 
When  the  just  are  mercy  needing  ? 

8. 
King  of  majesty  tremendous, 
Who  dost  free  salvation  send  us, 
Fount  of  pity,  then  befriend  us  ! 


PART  II. 


THINK,  kind  Jesu,  my  salvation 
Caused   Thy  wondrous  Incar- 
nation : 
Leave  me  not  to  reprobation  ! 

2. 
Faint  and  weary  Thou  hast  sought  me, 
On  the  Cross  of  suffering  bought  me  : 
Shall  such  grace  be  vainly  brought  me  ? 

3. 
Righteous  Judge  of  retribution, 
Grant  Thy  gift  of  absolution, 
Ere  that  Reckoning  Day's  conclusion ! 

4. 
Guilty,  now  I  pour  my  moaning, 
All  my  shame  with  anguish  owning ; 
Spare,  0  God,  Thy  suppliant  groaning. 

5. 

Thou  the  sinful  woman  savest ; 
Thou  the  dying  thief  forgavest ; 
And  to  me  a  hope  vouchsafest. 

6. 

Worthless  are  my  prayers  and  sighing ; 
Yet,  good  Lord,  in  grace  complying, 
Rescue  me  from  fires  undying. 

7. 
With  Thy  favoured  sheep,  oh  !  place 
Nor  among  the  goats  abase  me  ;  [me, 
But  to  Thy  right  hand  upraise  me. 

8. 
While  the  wicked  are  confounded, 
Doomed  to  flames  of  woe  unbounded, 
Call  me,  with  Thy  Saints  surrounded. 

9. 
Low  I  kneel,  with  heart  submission, 
See,  like  ashes  my  contrition  ; 
Help  me  in  my  last  condition !

vJT     The  end  of  things  created ! 
The  Judge  of  mankind  doth  appear, 
On  clouds  of  glory  seated  ! 
/  The  trumpet  sounds;  the  graves  restore

Caught  up  to  meet  Him  in  the  skies,

His  Presence  sheds  eternal  day

But  sinners,  filled  with  guilty  fears, 
Behold  His  wrath  prevailing, 

For  they  shall  rise,  and  find  their  tears 
And  sighs  are  unavailing. 

The  day  of  grace  is  past  and  gone  ; 

Trembling  they  stand  before  the  throne, 
All  unprepared  to  meet  Him. 

Great  God,  what  do  I  see  and  hear ! 

The  end  of  things  created  ! 
The  Judge  of  mankind  doth  appear, 

On  clouds  of  glory  seated  ! 
Beneath  His  Cross  I  view  the  day 
When  heaven  and  earth  shall  pass  away, 

And  thus  prepare  to  meet  Him. 

Amen.

St.  Thomas  (Second  Tune). 


Webbe's   Collection,  1792. 


LO!  He  comes  with  clouds  descending,  »//' 
Once  for  favoured  sinners  slain  ! 
Thousand  thousand  Saints  attending 
Swell  the  triumph  of  His  train  : 

Alleluia ! 
God  appears  on  earth  to  reign  ! 

p  Every  eye  shall  now  behold  Him,  / 

Kobed  in  dreadful  majesty  ; 
Those  who  set  at  nought  and  sold  Him, 
Pierced  and  nailed  Him  to  the  Tree, 

Deeply  wailing 
Shall  the  true  Messiah  see.  f 

(  125  ) 


The  dear  tokens  of  His  Passion 
Still  His  dazzling  Body  bears  ; 

Cause  of  endless  exultation 

To  His  ransomed  worshippers  ; 

With  what  rapture 
Gaze  we  on  those  glorious  scars  ! 

Yea,  Amen  !  let  all  adore  Thee 

High  on  Thine  eternal  throne  ! 
Saviour,  take  the  power  and  glory, 
Claim  the  kingdom  for  Thine  own ! 

Alleluia ! 
Thou  shalt  reign  and  Thou  alone. 

Amen.

Announces  that  the  Lord  is  nigh!

Glad  tidings  from  the  King  of  kings.

And  wither  like  a  flower  decayed.

Once  more  upon  Thy  people  shine, 
And  fill  the  world  with  love  divine.

/  pHEISTIANS,  awake!    Salute  the  happy  morn, 
\J     Whereon  the  Saviour  of  mankind  was  born  ; 
Eise  to  adore  the  mystery  of  love, 
Which  hosts  of  Angels  chanted  from  above ; 
With  them  the  joyful  tidings  first  begun, 
Of  God  Incarnate  and  the  Virgin's  Sou. 

mf  Then  to  the  watchful  shepherds  it  was  told, 
Who  heard  the  Angelic  herald's  voice,  "Behold, 
I  bring  good  tidings  of  a  Saviour's  birth 
To  you  and  all  the  nations  upon  earth : 
This  day  hath  God  fulfilled  His  promised  word, 
/  This  day  is  born  a  Saviour,  Christ  the  Lord." 

mf  He  spake;    and  straightway  the  celestial  choir 
In  hymns  of  joy,  unknown  before,  conspire  : 
The  praises  of  redeeming  love  they  sung, 
And  heaven's  whole  orb  with  Alleluias  rung  : 
God's  highest  glory  was  their  anthem  still, 
p  Peace  upon  earth,  and  unto  men  good- will. 

mf  To  Bethlehem  straight  the  enlightened  shepherds  ran. 
To  see  the  wonder  God  had  wrought  for  man, 
And  found,  with  Joseph  and  the  Blessed  Maid, 
Her  Son,  the  Saviour,  in  a  manger  laid: 
They  to  their  flocks,  still  praising  God,  return, 
And  their  glad  hearts  within  their  bosoms  burn. 

p  Like  Mary  let  us  ponder  in  our  mind 

God's  wondrous  love  in  saving  lost  mankind  ; 
Trace  we  the  Babe,  Who  has  retrieved  our  loss, 
From  His  poor  manger  to  His  bitter  Cross  ; 
Tread  in  His  steps,  assisted  by  His  grace, 
Till  man's  first  heavenly  state  again  takes  place. 

/  Then  may  we  hope,  the  Angelic  thrones  among, 
To  sing,  redeemed,  a  glad  triumphal  song : 
He  that  was  born  upon  this  joyful  day 
Around  us  all  His  glory  shall  display  ; 
Saved  by  His  love,  incessant  we  shall  sing 
Eternal  praise  to  heaven's  Almighty  King.     Amen.

»?/  /~^  0D  from  on  high  hath  heard ! 
V3f      Let  sighs  and  sorrows  cease  ; 
The  skies  unfold,  and  lo  ! 
Descends  the  gift  of  Peace  ! 

Hark !  on  the  midnight  air 

Celestial  voices  swell ; 
The  Hosts  of  heaven  proclaim 
"God  comes  on  earth  to  dwell!  " 


/  Yes,  Faith  can  pierce  the  cloud 
Which  shrouds  His  glory  now  , 
And  hails  Him  Lord  and  God, 
To  Whom  all  creatures  bow. 

Faith  sees  the  sapphire  throne 
dim       Where  Angels  evermore 
p  Adoring  tremble  still, 

And  trembling  still  adore. 


Haste  with  the  shepherds  ;  see 
The  mystery  of  Grace  : 
p  A  manger-bed,  a  Child, 
Is  all  the  eye  can  trace. 

mf  Is  this  indeed  the  Christ  ? 
Is  this  the  Eternal  Son  ? 
Who,  ere  the  worlds  began, 
Was  with  the  Father  One  ? 


mf  Though  silent,  Thou  dost  speak 
And  bid  us  not  refuse 
To  bear  what  flesh  would  shun, 
To  spurn  what  flesh  would  choose. 

Fill  us  with  holy  love, 

Heal  Thou  our  earthly  pride  ; 
cr  Be  born  within  our  hearts, 
f       And  ever  there  abide.     Amen.

Where  Christ  exalted  reigns  ;

??i/  TT  came  upon  the  midnight  clear, 
X     That  glorious  song  of  old, 
From  Angels  bending  near  the  earth 
To  touch  their  harps  of  gold  : 
p  Peace  on  the  earth,  good- will  to  men 
From  heaven's  all-gracious  King : — 
pp  The  world  in  solemn  stillness  lay 
To  hear  the  Angels  sing. 

mf  Still  through  the  cloven  skies  they  come 
With  peaceful  wings  unfurled  ; 
And  still  their  heavenly  music  floats 
p       O'er  all  the  weary  world  : 
Above  its  sad  and  lowly  plains 
They  bend  on  hovering  wing, 
cr  And  ever  o'er  its  Babel  sounds 
mf      The  blessed  Angels  sing. 


p"  n  "i  r  -t-H- 


p  Yet  with  the  woes  of  sin  and  strife 

The  world  has  suffered  long  ; 
Beneath  the  Angels'  strain  have  rolled 

Two  thousand  years  of  wrong  ; 
And  man  at  war  with  man  hears  not 

The  song  of  love  they  bring  ; 
Oh !  hush  the  noise,  ye  men  of  strife, 

And  hear  the  Angels  sing  ! 

mf  And  ye,  beneath  life's  crushing  load, 

Whose  forms  are  bending  low, 
Who  toil  along  the  climbing  way 

With  painful  steps  and  slow  ; 
cr  Look  now,  for  glad  and  golden  hours 

Come  swiftly  on  the  wing  : 
mf  Oh  rest  beside  the  weary  road, 

And  hear  the  Angels  sing. 


mf  For  lo,  the  days  are  hastening  on, 
By  prophet-bards  foretold, 
When  with  the  ever-circling  years 

Comes  round  the  age  of  gold  ; 
When  peace  shall  over  all  the  earth 
cr       Its  ancient  splendours  fling, 
f  And  the  whole  world  send  back  the  song 
Which  now  the  Angels  sing.     Amen.

mf 


OF  the  Father  Sole-begotten, 
Ere  the  worlds  began  to  be, 
He  the  Alpha  and  Omega, 

He  the  Source,  the  ending  He, 
Of  the  things  that  are,  that  have  been, 
And  that  future  years  shall  see, 

Evermore  and  evermore  ! 
He  is  here,  Whom  seers  in  old  time    mf 

Chanted  of,  while  ages  ran  ; 
Whom  the  writings  of  the  Prophets 
Promised  since  the  world  began  : 
Then  foretold,  now  manifested 
To  receive  the  praise  of  man 

Evermore  and  evermore  ! 


0  that  ever-blessed  birthday, 
When  the  Virgin  full  of  grace, 

Of  the  Holy  Ghost  incarnate 
Bare  the  Saviour  of  our  race  ; 

And  that  Child,  the  world's  Redeemer, 
First  displayed  His  sacred  face, 

Evermore  and  evermore ! 


/ 


(  151  ) 


Praise  Him,  0  ye  Heaven  of  Heavens ! 

Praise  Him,  Angels  in  the  height ! 
Every  power  and  every  virtue 

Sing  the  praise  of  God  aright : 
Let  no  tongue  of  man  be  silent, 

Let  each  heart  and  voice  unite, 

Evermore  and  evermore ! 
Thee  let  age,  and  Thee  let  manhood, 

Thee  let  choirs  of  infants  sing, 
Thee  the  matrons  and  the  virgins, 

And  the  children  answering  ; 
Let  their  modest  song  re-echo, 

And  their  heart  its  praises  bring, 
Evermore  and  evermore  ! 
Laud  and  honour  to  the  Father  ! 

Laud  and  honour  to  the  Son  ! 
Laud  and  honour  to  the  Spirit ! 

Ever  Three  and  ever  One, 
Con-substantial,  Co-eternal, 

While  unending  ages  run, 

Evermore  and  evermore ! 
Amen.

?>?/  TTJ'HILE  shepherds  watched  their 
V  T       flocks  by  night, 

All  seated  on  the  ground, 
The  Angel  of  the  Lord  came  down, 
And  glory  shone  around. 

14  Fear  not,"  said  he, — for  mighty  dread 
Had  seized  their  troubled  mind, — 

"  Glad  tidings  of  great  joy  I  bring 
To  you  and  all  mankind. 


The  heavenly  Babe  you  there  shall 
find 

To  human  view  displayed, 
All  meanly  wrapt  in  swathing  bands, 

And  in  a  manger  laid." 

Thus  spake  the  Seraph,  and  forthwith 
Appeared  a  shining  throng 

Of  Angels  praising  God,  and  thus 
Addressed  their  joyful  song  : — 


To  you,  in  David's  town  this  day, 

Is  born,  of  David's  line, 
A  Saviour,  Who  is  Christ  the  Lord, 

And  this  shall  be  the  sign  : 


f  "All  glory  be  to  God  on  high, 

And  to  the  earth  be  peace  :   [men, 
Good-will  henceforth  from  heaven  to 
Begin  and  never  cease."     Amen. 


Also  the  following : 

Come,  Thou  long-expected  Jesus — 383 
Hail  to  the  Lord's  Anointed — 424 
Once  in  royal  David's  city— 635 
Songs  of  praise  the  Angels  sang — 548

mf  T7IRST  of  Martyrs,  thou  whose  name 
A      Answers  to  thy  crown  of  fame  ; 
Not  of  flowers  that  see  decay 
Weave  we  this  thy  crown  to-day. 

Like  a  gem  each  rugged  stone 
Sparkling  with  thy  life-blood  shone  ; 
Ne'er  could  stars  such  lustre  shed, 
Studded  round  thy  saintly  head. 

Every  bruise  upon  Thy  brow 
Glistens  with  a  heavenly  glow ; 
And  thy  wounded  countenance 
Brightens  to  an  Angel's  glance, 

Victim  thou  art  called  to  be 
To  the  Victim  slain  for  thee  : 
First  to  own  Thy  Lord  in  death, 
Earliest  witness  to  the  faith  : 

First  to  tread  the  crimson  sea, 
Through  the  pathway  marked  for  thee : 
Leading  on  the  Martyr  host 
To  the  heavenly  Canaan's  coast. 

Thou,  who  didst  dispense  thy  store 
Daily  to  the  sick  and  poor, 
Now  art  come  a  welcome  guest 
To  the  Lamb's  high  marriage-feast. 

/  Glory  to  the  Father  be ; 
Glory,  Virgin-born  to  Thee  ; 
Glory  to  the  Holy  Ghost, 
Praised  by  men  and  Angel  host.     Amen.

/       TJE AD  of  Thy  Church  triumphant, 

JLX     We  joyfully  adore  Thee  ; 
Till  Thou  appear,  Thy  members  here 

Shall  sing  like  those  in  glory  : 

We  lift  our  hearts  and  voices, 

With  blest  anticipation, 
And  cry  aloud,  and  give  to  God 

The  praise  of  our  salvation. 

p       While  in  affliction's  furnace, 

And  passing  through  the  fire, 
cr  Thy  love  we  praise  which  knows  our  days 

And  ever  brings  us  nigher  : 
/      We  clap  our  hands  exulting 
In  Thine  Almighty  favour : 
The  love  divine,  which  made  us  Thine, 
Shall  keep  us  Thine  for  ever. 

mf      Thou  dost  conduct  Thy  people 
Through  torrents  of  temptation  : 
Nor  will  we  fear,  while  Thou  art  near, 
The  fire  of  tribulation  ; 
/      The  world,  with  sin  and  Satan, 
In  vain  our  march  opposes, 
Through  Thee  we  shall  break  through  them  all 
And  sing  the  song  of  Moses. 

mf      By  faith  we  see  the  glory 

To  which  Thou  shalt  restore  us, 
The  cross  despise,  for  that  high  prize 
Which  Thou  hast  set  before  us  : 
cr       And,  if  Thou  count  us  worthy, 
We  each,  as  dying  Stephen, 
/  Shall  see  Thee  stand  at  God's  right  hand, 
To  call  us  up  to  heaven.     Amen.

Holy  Ghost,  niuminator,  shed  Thy  beams— 187   [Part  II.]

\J     Before  the  throne  arrayed  in  white  ? 
They  stand  serene  and  calmly  fair, 
As  conscious  of  high  welcome  there. 

That  starry  crown  around  their  brow, 
It  tells  their  sacred  glory  now  : 
Blest  virgin-souls,  who,  faultless,  come 
From  font  of  grace — or  martyrdom. 

p  And  in  their  mouth  is  found  no  guile, 
Christ's  Holy  Innocents,  whose  smile 
Shines  purer,  from  their  knowing  not 
Upon  their  souls  sin's  conscious  blot.

The  child-like  Saint — the  saint-like  child — 
Marked  with  Christ's  cross  or  earth's  dark  frown.

What  we  are,  and  whence  we  came  ;

To  inherit  bliss  unending, 

Or  eternity  of  woe.

AS  a  shadow  life  is  fleeting ; 
As  a  vapour  so  it  flies ; 
For  the  old  year  now  retreating 
Pardon  grant,  and  make  us  wise- 


Wise  that  we  our  days  may  number, 
Strive  and  wrestle  with  our  sin, 

Stay  not  in  our  work  nor  slumber 
Till  Thy  glorious  rest  we  win. 

8. 
Soon  before  the  Judge  all  glorious 

We  with  all  the  dead  shall  stand  ; 
Saviour,  over  death  victorious, 

Place  us  then  on  Thy  right  hand.

/"Go  forth!  firm  faith  in  every  heart,

And  this  no  fear  o'erwhelm.

Of  Him  Who  led  the  way ; 
Close  with  the  legions  of  the  night,

Thy  true  light  to  the  end ;

And  night  be  swept  away,

/  nnHE  people  that  in  darkness  sat 
J-      A  glorious  light  have  seen  ; 
The  Light  has  shined  on  them  who  long 
In  shades  of  death  have  been. 

To  hail  Thee,  Sun  of  Righteousness, 
The  gathering  nations  come  ; 

They  joy  as  when  the  reapers  bear 
Their  harvest  treasures  home. 

For  Thou  their  burden  dost  remove, 

And  break  the  tyrant's  rod, 
As  in  the  day  when  Midian  fell 

Before  the  sword  of  God. 

ff  For  unto  us  a  Child  is  born, 
To  us  a  Son  is  given, 
And  on  His  shoulder  ever  rests 
All  power  in  earth  and  heaven. 

/  His  Name  shall  be  the  Prince  of  Peace, 
The  Everlasting  Lord, 
The  Wonderful,  the  Counsellor, 
The  God  by  all  adored. 

His  righteous  government  and  power 

Shall  over  all  extend  ; 
On  judgment  and  on  justice  based, 

His  reign  shall  have  no  end. 

p  Lord  Jesu,  reign  in  us  we  pray, 
cr       And  make  us  Thine  alone, 
/  Who  with  the  Father  ever  art 
And  Holy  Spirit  One.     Amen.

mf  TT7HAT  star  is  this,  with  beams  so  bright, 
f  »       More  beauteous  than  the  noouday  light  ? 
It  shines  to  herald  forth  the  King, 
And  Gentiles  to  His  cradle  bring. 


See  now  fulfilled  what  God  decreed, 
"From  Jacob  shall  a  star  proceed;" 
And  Eastern  Sages  with  amaze 
Upon  the  wondrous  vision  gaze. 

The  guiding  star  above  is  bright  ; 
Within  them  shines  a  clearer  light, 
Which  leads  them  on  with  power  benign 
To  seek  the  Giver  of  the  sign. 

True  love  can  brook  no  dull  delay ; 
Nor  toil  nor  dangers  stop  their  way  : 
Home,  kindred,  fatherland,  and  all 
They  leave  at  their  Creator's  call. 

p  0  Jesu,  while  the  star  of  grace 
Now  leads  us  on  to  seek  Thy  face, 
Let  not  our  slothful  hearts  refuse 
The  guidance  of  that  light  to  use. 

/  All  glory,  Jesu,  be  to  Thee 
For  this  Thy  glad  Epiphany, 
Whom  with  the  Father  we  adore 
And  Holy  Ghost  for  evermore.     Amen. 


Also  the  foUoiving  : 

At  even,  when  the  sun  did  set — 12  [3rd  S.]    Jesu,  the  very  thought  of  Thee — 446  [Part  I.] 

Christ,  Whose  glory  fills  the  skies— 3  Jesus  shall  reign  where'er  the  sun— 452 

Come,  Thou  long-expected  Jesus— 383  0  God  of  Hosts,  the  mighty  Lord— 485   [1st  S.] 

Fierce  raged  the  tempest — 399  [4th  S.]    0  Hand  of  bounty,  largely  spread— 490 

From  all  that  dwell  below  the  skies— 405  0  Love,  how  deep  !  how  broad  !— 502 

God  of  mercy,  God  of  grace— 417  The  strain  upraise  of  joy  and  praise— 560 
Hail  to  the  Lord's  Anointed— 424

?/?/  r\  RACIOUS  Spirit,  Holy  Ghost, 
VJT  Taught  by  Thee,  we  covet  most 
Of  Thy  gifts  at  Pentecost 
Holy,  heavenly  love. 

Faith,  that  mountains  could  remove, 
Tongues  of  earth  or  heaven  above, 
Knowledge — all  things — empty  prove 
Without  heavenly  love. 

Though  I  as  a  martyr  bleed, 
Give  my  goods  the  poor  to  feed, 
All  is  vain,  if  love  I  need  ; 
Therefore,  give  me  love. 


Love  is  kind,  and  suffers  long ; 
Love  is  meek,  and  thinks  no  wrong  ; 
Love  than  death  itself  more  strong  ; 
Therefore,  give  us  love. 

Prophecy  will  fade  away, 
Melting  in  the  light  of  day  ; 
Love  will  ever  with  us  stay ; 
Therefore,  give  us  love, 

Faith  will  vanish  into  sight ; 
Hope  be  emptied  in  delight ; 
Love  in  heaven  will  shine  more  bright 
Therefore,  give  us  love. 


Faith  and  Hope  and  Love  we  see 
Joining  hand  in  hand  agree  ; 
But  the  greatest  of  the  three, 
And  the  best,  is  Love.     Amen.

p  T^ATHER,  again  in  Jesus'  Name  we  meet, 
_L      And  bow  in  penitence  beneath  Thy  feet : 
Again  to  Thee  our  feeble  voices  raise, 
To  sue  for  mercy,  and  to  sing  Thy  praise. 

mf  Oh  we  would  bless  Thee  for  Thy  ceaseless  care, 
And  all  Thy  works  from  day  to  day  declare  ; 
Is  not  our  life  with  hourly  mercies  crowned  ? 
Does  not  Thine  arm  encircle  us  around  ? 

p  Alas  !  unworthy  of  Thy  boundless  love, 

Too  oft  our  feet  from  Thee,  our  Father,  rove ; 

cr  But  now,  encouraged  by  Thy  voice,  we  come, 
Returning  sinners  to  a  Father's  home. 

mf  Oh,  by  that  Xaine,  in  whom  all  fulness  dwells, 
Oh,  by  that  Love,  wdiich  every  love  excels, 
Oh,  by  that  Blood,  so  freely  shed  for  sin, 
Open  sweet  mercy's  gate,  and  let  us  in  !     Amen.

The  time  for  purging  sins  away, 
The  sins  of  thought,  and  deed,  and  word, 
That  we  have  done  against  the  Lord.

Though  great  its  past  iniquity.

And  works  of  mercy  and  of  love, 
Entreat  for  pardon  from  above ;

Adorn  us  with  the  gifts  of  grace, 
And  join  us  to  the  Angel  band

Upon  it  Life  did  death  endure, 
And  yet  by  death  did  life  procure. 


Pierced  by  a  spear,  to  cleanse  our  hearts, 
His  side  a  sacred  Stream  imparts ; 
Which  issues  in  a  double  flood — 
A  Stream  of  Water  and  of  Blood. 

That  which  the  Prophet-King  of  old 
Hath  in  mysterious  verse  foretold 
Is  now  accomplished,  whilst  we  see 
That  God  is  reigning  from  the  Tree. 

Blest  Tree,  most  sacred  and  divine, 
Which  dost  in  royal  purple  shine ; 
Supporting  an  Incarnate  God, 
And  rendered  holy  by  thy  load. 

Blest  Tree,  whose  happy  branches  bore 
The  wealth  that  did  the  world  restore, 
The  Balance  which  the  Price  did  weigh 
That  spoiled  the  spoiler  of  his  prey. 

Blest  Trinity,  life's  Source  and  Spring ! 

May  every  soul  Thy  praises  sing : 

Let  those  obtain  a  Crown  in  heaven 

To  whom  the  Cross  hath  conquest  given.     Amen.

PART  I. 

/  QING,  my  tongue,  the  glorious  battle, 
O  Sing  the  last,  the  dread  affray  ; 
O'er  the  Cross,  the  Victor's  trophy, 

Sound  the  high  triumphal  lay, 
How,  the  pains  of  death  enduring, 

Earth's  Redeemer  won  the  day. 

/>  He,  our  Maker,  deeply  grieving 
That  the  first-made  Adam  fell, 

When  he  ate  the  fruit  forbidden 
Whose  reward  was  death  and  hell, 

Marked  e'en  then  this  Tree  the  ruin 
Of  the  first  tree  to  dispel. 


PART  II. 

mf  "VT  0  W  the  thirty  years  accomplished 
XI  Which  on  earth  He  willed  to  see, 
Born  for  this,  He  meets  His  Passion, 

Gives  Himself  an  Offering  free : 
On  the  Cross  the  Lamb  is  lifted, 
There  the  Sacrifice  to  be. 

Faithful  Cross,  above  all  other 
One  and  only  noble  Tree, 

None  in  foliage,  none  in  blossom, 
None  in  fruit  thy  peer  may  be ; 

Sweet  thy  wood  by  man  is  reckoned 
For  the  weight  that  hung  on  thee. 


wf  Therefore,  when  at  length  the  fulness 

Of  the  appointed  time  was  come, 
He  was  sent,  the  world's  Creator, 

From  the  Father's  heavenly  home, 
And  was  found  in  human  fashion, 

Offspring  of  the  Virgin's  womb. 

Doxology  to  be  sung  at  the  end  of  each  Part 

f  Praise  and  honour  to  the  Father, 
Praise  and  honour  to  the  Son, 

Praise  and  honour  to  the  Spirit, 
Ever  Three  and  ever  One, 

One  in  might,  and  One  in  glory, 
While  eternal  ages  run.     Amen. 


Thou  alone  wast  counted  worthy 
This  world's  ransom  to  sustain, 

That  a  shipwrecked  race  for  ever 
Might  a  port  of  refuge  gain, 

With  the  sacred  Blood  anointed 
Of  the  Lamb  for  sinners  slain.

**      Willing  once  for  us  to  die, 
At  Thy  Cross  we  humbly  lie. 

Je\u,  Lord,  betrayed  and  tried, 
By  Thine  own  at  last  denied, 
Scorned  of  men  and  crucified  : 

By  Thy  soul  in  anguish  torn 
With  the  insult  and  the  scorn, 
Mocking  robe  and  crown  of  thorn  : 

By  Thy  tears  of  grief  which  fell ; 
By  Thy  woes  which  none  may  tell ; 
By  Thy  strife  with  death  and  hell : 


By  Thy  sad  and  lonely  cry 
Through  the  gloom  that  veiled  the  sky 
Ere  Thou  willed  Thyself  to  die  : 

By  Thy  dying  sad  and  lone  ; 
mf  By  Thy  Cross  and  victory  won, 
Finished  work  and  battle  done  : 

Dying,  Lord,  that  we  might  live, 
Willing  now  Thy  grace  to  give, 
Hear  us,  Jesu,  and  forgive. 

Lord  of  glory,  Jesu  blest, 
Hope  of  weary  souls  opprest, 
dim  Grant  us  Thine  eternal  rest.

"  To-day  shalt  thou  he  with  Me  in  Paradise." 

>;?/"T  OED,  when  Thy  Kingdom  comes,  remember  me 
J-^     Thus  spake  the  dying  lips  to  dying  ears  ;

The  promised  glory  of  the  far-off  years  ! 

No  kingly  sign  declares  that  glory  now, 

No  ray  of  hope  lights  up  that  awful  hour  ; 

A  thorny  crown  surrounds  the  bleeding  brow, 

The  hands  are  stretched  in  weakness,  not  in  power. 

Hark  !    through  the  gloom  the  dying  Saviour  saith, 
"Thou   too   shalt  rest  in   Paradise   to-day;" 
cr     0  words  of  love  to  answer  words  of  faith! 
0  words  of  hope  for  those  who  live  to  pray  ! 

p     Lord,  when  with  dying  lips  my  prayer  is  said. 
Grant  that  in  faith  Thy  Kingdom  I  may  see ; 
And,  thinking  on  Thy  Cross  and  bleeding  head, 
May  breathe  my  parting  words,  "Remember  me." 

Remember  me,  but  not  my  shame  or  sin : 
cr     Thy  cleansing  Blood  hath  washed  them  all  away  ; 
mf    Thy  precious  Death  for  me  did  pardon  win  ; 

Thy  Blood  redeemed  me  in  that  awful  day.

Hear  the  dying  Saviour  cry.

Of  the  ceremonial  law, 
Finished  all  that  God  had  promised :

Join  the  triumph  to  proclaim.

Glory  to  the  bleeding  Lamb !     Amen.

IT  is  finished  !  Blessed  Jesus, 
Thou  hast  breathed  Thy  latest  sigh, 
Teaching  us  the  sons  of  Adam 
How  the  Son  of  God  can  die. 

Lifeless  lies  the  pierced  Body, 

Besting  in  its  rocky  bed, 
Thou  hast  left  the  Cross  of  anguish 

For  the  mansions  of  the  dead. 


mf  In  the  hidden  realm  of  darkness 
Shines  a  light  unseen  before, 
For  the  Lord  of  dead  and  living 
Enters  at  the  lowly  door. 

Lo  !  in  spirit,  rich  in  mercy 

Comes  He  from  the  world  above, 

Preaching  to  the  souls  in  prison 
Tidings  of  His  dying  love. 


/  Lo  !  the  heavenly  light  around  Him 
As  He  draws  His  people  near ; 
All  amazed  they  come  rejoicing 
At  the  gracious  words  they  hear. 

Patriarch  and  Priest  and  Prophet 
Gather  round  Him  as  He  stands, 

In  adoring  faith  and  gladness, 
Hearing  of  the  pierced  hands. 

mf  There  in  lowliest  joy  and  wonder 
Stands  the  robber  by  His  side, 
Reaping  now  the  blessed  promise 
Spoken  by  the  Crucified. 

p  Jesus,  Lord  of  our  salvation, 
Let  Thy  mercy  rest  on  me  ; 
Grant  me  too,  when  life  is  finished, 
Rest  in  Paradise  with  Thee.  Amen.

mf  O  ABBATH  of  the  Saints  of  old, 
O     Day  of  mysteries  manifold, 
By  the  great  Creator  blest, 
Type  of  His  eternal  rest ! 
Eesting  from  His  work  the  Lord 
Spake  to-day  the  hallowing  word. 

Resting  from  His  work  to-day, 
In  the  tomb  the  Saviour  lay  ; 
Still  He  slept,  from  head  to  feet 
Shrouded  in  the  winding-sheet, 
Lying  in  the  rock  alone, 
Hidden  by  the  sealed  stone. 

All  that  Sabbath  long,  I  ween, 
Mournful  watched  the  Magdalene 
Rising  early,  resting  late, 
By  the  sepulchre  to  wait, 
In  the  holy  garden  glade, 
Where  her  buried  Lord  was  laid. 


p  Lord,  with  Thee,  till  life  shall  end, 
We  would  solemn  vigil  spend  ; 
Close  the  door  from  sight  and  sound 
Of  the  busy  world  around  ; 
And  in  patient  watch  remain 
Till  our  Lord  appear  again. 

Still  with  Thee  their  Sabbath  keep 

They  who  'neath  the  Altar  sleep  ; 

Resting  from  their  labours  past, 
cr  Waiting  for  the  trumpet's  blast ; 
/  When,  the  new  creation  done, 

Endless  joys  shall  be  begun. 

p  Jesu,  keep  us  safe  from  sin  ; 

With  them  let  us  enter  in, 
cr  Dangers  past  and  toil  at  end, 

And  to  those  blest  joys  ascend  ; 

There  in  flesh  our  God  to  see, 
p  And  adore  eternally.     Amen.

Raise  your  joys  and  triumphs  high  ! 
Sing,  ye  heavens  ;  and  earth,  reply  ! 


Lives  again  our  glorious  King ! 
Where,  0  Death,  is  now  thy  sting? 
Once  He  died  our  souls  to  save  ; 
Where  thy  victory,  0  Grave  ? 


Love's  redeeming  work  is  done, 
Fought  the  fight,  the  battle  won ; 
Lo  !  our  Sun's  eclipse  is  o'er  ; 
Lo  !  He  sets  in  blood  no  more. 


Soar  we  now  where  Christ  has  led, 
Following  our  exalted  Head  ! 
Made  like  Him,  like  Him  we  rise, 
Ours  the  cross,  the  grave,  the  skies. 


Vain  the  stone,  the  watch,  the  seal 
Christ  has  burst  the  gates  of  hell ! 
Death  in  vain  forbids  His  rise  ; 
Christ  has  opened  Paradise  ! 


King  of  Glory,  soul  of  bliss, 
Everlasting  life  is  this, 
Thee  to  know,  Thy  power  to  prove, 
Thus  to  sing,  and  thus  to  love.     Amen.

/  /^OME,  ye  faithful,  raise  the  strain 
\J     Of  triumphant  gladness  ! 
God  hath  brought  His  Israel 

Into  joy  from  sadness, — 
All  the  winter  of  our  sins,

From  His  light,  to  Whom  we  give 

Thanks  and  praise  undying. 


Now  the  Queen  of  seasons,  bright 

With  the  day  of  splendour, 
With  the  royal  Feast  of  feasts, 

Comes  its  joy  to  render  ; 
Comes  to  glad  Jerusalem, 

Who  with  true  affection 
Welcomes  in  unwearied  strains 

Jesus'  Resurrection  ! 


Neither  might  the  gates  of  death, 

Nor  the  tomb's  dark  portal, 
Nor  the  watchers,  nor  the  seal 

Hold  Thee  as  a  mortal : 
But  to-day  amidst  Thine  own 

Thou  didst  stand,  bestowing 
That  Thy  peace  which  evermore 

Passeth  human  knowing.     Amen.

/  TTALLELUJAH  !    Hallelujah  !    Hearts  to  heaven  and  voices  raise  ; 

Sing  to  God  a  hymn  of  gladness,  sing  to  God  a  hymn  of  praise  ! 
mf  He  Who  on  the  Cross  a  victim  for  the  world's  salvation  bled, 
/  Jesus  Christ,  the  King  of  Glory,  now  is  risen  from  the  dead  ! 


/  Now  the  iron  bars  are  broken,  Christ  from  death  to  life  is  born, 
Glorious  life,  and  life  immortal,  on  the  holy  Easter  morn. 
Christ  has  triumphed,  and  we  conquer  by  His  mighty  enterprise, 
We  with  Christ  to  life  eternal  by  His  Resurrection  rise. 

/  Christ  is  risen,  Christ  the  First-fruits  of  the  holy  harvest-field, 
Which  will  all  its  full  abundance  at  His  second  coming  yield  ; 
Then  the  golden  ears  of  harvest  will  their  heads  before  Him  wave, 
Ripened  by  His  glorious  sunshine,  from  the  furrows  of  the  grave. 

/  Christ  is  risen,  we  are  risen  !  (p)  Shed  upon  us  heavenly  grace, 

Rain,  and  dew,  and  gleams  of  glory  from  the  brightness  of  Thy  face, 
cr  So  that  we,  with  hearts  in  heaven,  here  on  earth  may  fruitful  be, 
/  And  by  Angel-hands  be  gathered,  and  be  ever,  Lord,  with  Thee. 

/  Hallelujah  !    Hallelujah  !    Glory  be  to  God  on  high  ! 

To  the  Father,  and  the  Saviour,  Who  has  gained  the  victory  ! 
Glory  to  the  Holy  Spirit,  fount  of  Love  and  Sanctity  ! 
Hallelujah!    Hallelujah!    to  the  Triune  Majesty!     Amen.

Easter. 


/  TTE  is  risen,  He  is  risen, 
■U     Tell  it  with  a  joyful  voice, 
He  has  burst  His  three  days'  prison, 

Let  the  whole  wide  earth  rejoice ; 
Death  is  conquered,  man  is  free, 
Christ  has  won  the  victory. 


mf  Tell  it  to  the  sinners  weeping 
Over  deeds  in  darkness  done, 
Weary  fast  and  vigil  keeping, 
cr       Brightly  breaks  their  Easter  sun ; 
/  Blood  can  wash  all  sins  away, 
Christ  has  conquered  hell  to-day. 

mf  Come,  ye  sad  and  fearful-hearted, 

With  glad  smile  and  radiant  brow  ; 
Lent's  long  shadows  have  departed, 

All  His  woes  are  over  now, 
And  the  Passion  that  He  bore  ; 
/  Sin  and  pain  can  vex  no  more. 

vi f  Come,  with  high  and  holy  hymning 

Chant  our  Lord's  triumphant  lay  ; 

Not  one  darksome  cloud  is  dimming 

Yonder  glorious  morning  ray 
Breaking  o'er  the  purple  east ; 
/  Brighter  far  our  Easter  feast. 

ft  He  is  risen,  He  is  risen ; 

He  hath  ope'd  the  eternal  gate  ; 
We  are  free  from  sin's  dark  prison, 

Risen  to  a  holier  state. 
And  a  brighter  Easter  beam 
On  our  longing  eyes  shall  stream.     Amen.

Easter, 


FOR  THE  EVENING. 

mf    TESU,  the  world's  redeeming  Lord, 
*J      The  Father's  Co-eternal  Word, 
Of  Light  invisible  true  Light, 
Thine  Israel's  Keeper  day  and  night; 

Our  great  Creator  and  our  Guide, 
Who  times  and  seasons  dost  divide, 
Refresh  at  night  with  quiet  rest 
Our  limbs  by  daily  toil  oppressed : 

That  while  in  this  frail  house  of  clay 
A  little  longer  here  we  stay, 
Our  flesh  in  Thee  may  sweetly  sleep, 
Our  souls  with  Thee  their  vigils  keep. 

We  pray  Thee,  while  we  dwell  below, 
Preserve  us  from  our  ghostly  foe  ; 
Nor  let  his  wiles  victorious  be 
O'er  them  that  are  redeemed  by  Thee. 

0  Lord  of  all,  with  us  abide 
In  this  our  joyful  Easter- tide  ; 
From  every  weapon  death  can  wield 
Thine  own  redeemed  for  ever  shield. 

/  All  praise  be  Thine,  0  risen  Lord, 
From  death  to  endless  life  restored ; 
All  praise  to  God  the  Father  be, 
And  Holy  Ghost  eternally.     Amen.

Easter, 


/  V[OW  dawning  glows  the  Day  of  days; 

All  heaven  resounds  with  songs  of  praise  ! 
From  earth  loud  shouts  of  triumph  rise, 
And  hell  despoiled  with  groans  replies. 

/  For  He,  the  mighty  King  of  day, 

Hath  crashed  proud  Death's  unlawful  sway, 
And,  marching  through  his  dark  domain, 
Broken  the  weary  prisoners'  chain. 

mf  Fierce  soldiers  o'er  His  tomb  kept  guard ; 

A  mighty  stone  the  entrance  barred ; 
/  But,  bursting  from  His  prison,  He  rose 
Triumphant  o'er  His  baffled  foes. 

/  Loosed  are  the  pains  of  hell  this  hour ; 

Death  over  life  hath  lost  his  power : 
"  The  Lord  is  risen,"  the  Angel  said, 
"Why  seek  the  living  'mid  the  dead?" 

p  Thou  gracious  King  and  Lord  of  day, 

Dwell  Thou  within  our  hearts,  we  pray ; 
cr  So  from  Thine  own  shall  grateful  praise 
/  Rise  to  Thy  throne  through  all  our  days.     Amen.

THRONED,   0  Crowned  with 
all  renown, 
Since  Thou  the  earth  hast  trod, 
Thou  reignest,  and  by  Thee  come 
down 
Henceforth  the  gifts  of  God. 
By  Thee  the  suns  of  space,  that  burn 

Unspent,  their  watches  hold  ; 
The  hosts  that  turn,  and  still  return, 
Are  swayed,  and  poised,  and  rolled. 


Thus   in   their   change  let   frost   and 
heat 

And  winds  and  dews  be  given  ; 
All    fostering    power,     all     influence 
sweet, 

Breathe  from  the  bounteous  heaven. 
Attemper  fair  with  gentle  air 

The  sunshine  and  the  rain, 
That  kindly  earth,  with  timely  birth, 

May  yield  her  fruits  again  ; 


/    The  powers  of  earth,  for  all  her  ills, 

An  endless  treasure  yield ; 
The  precious  things  of  ancient  hills, 

Forest,  and  fruitful  field,  [wealth, 
Thine  is  the  health,  and  Thine  the 

That  in  our  halls  abound  ; 
And  Thine  the  beauty  and  the  joy 

With  which  the  years  are  crowned. 


That  we  may  feed  Thy  poor  aright, 

And,  gathering  round  Thy  throne, 
Here,  in  the  holy  Angels'  sight, 

Repay  Thee  of  Thine  own. 
For  so  our  sires  in  olden  time 

Spared  neither  gold  nor  gear, 
Nor  precious  wood,  nor  hewen  stone, 

Thy  sacred  shrines  to  rear. 


mf   And  as, when  ebbed  the  Flood,  our  sires 

Kneeled  on  the  mountain  sod  ; 
cr    While  o'er  the  new-world's  altar-fires 
Shone  out  the  Bow  of  God  ; 
And  sweetly  fell  the  peaceful  spell, 

Word  that  shall  aye  avail ; 
Summer  and  winter  shall  not  cease, 
Seed-time  nor  harvest  fail ;  " 


P 

cr 
mf 


For  there,  to  give  the  second  birth 

In  mysteries  and  signs, 
The  face  of  Christ  o'er  all  the  earth 

On  kneeling  myriads  shines.

HAIL  the  day  that  sees  Him  rise 
Glorious  to  His  native  skies  ! 
Christ  awhile  to  mortals  given 
Re-ascends  His  native  heaven. 


See  He  lifts  His  hands  above  ! 
See  He  shows  the  prints  of  love  ; 
Hark  !  the  gracious  lips  bestow 
Blessings  on  His  Church  below. 


There  the  glorious  triumph  waits  ; 
Lift  your  heads,  eternal  gates  ; 
Wide  unfold  the  radiant  scene  ; 
Take  the  King  of  Glory  in  ! 

mf  Him  though  highest  heaven  receives, 
Still  He  loves  the  earth  He  leaves ; 
Though  returning  to  His  throne, 
Still  He  calls  mankind  His  own. 


Still  for  us  He  intercedes  ; 
His  prevailing  Death  He  pleads  ; 
Near  Himself  prepares  our  place, 
Harbinger  of  human  race. 

Lord,  though  parted  from  our  sight 
High  above  yon  azure  height, 
Grant  our  hearts  may  thither  rise, 
Following  Thee  beyond  the  skies. 


mf  There  we  shall  with  Thee  remain, 
Partners  of  Thy  endless  reign  ; 
There  Thy  face  unclouded  see, 
Find  our  heaven  of  heavens  in  Thee. 


Amen.

Hsccneion, 


>//  TTE  is  gone — A  cloud  of  light 

11     Has  received  Him  from  our  sight ; 
High  in  heaven,  where  eye  of  men 
Follows  not,  nor  Angel's  ken; 
Through  the  veils  of  time  and  space, 
Passed  into  the  Holiest  place ; 
All  the  toil,  the  sorrow  done, 
All  the  battle  fought  and  won. 

He  is  gone — Towards  their  goal 
World  and  Church  must  onward  roll: 
Far  behind  we  leave  the  past ; 
Forward  are  our  glances  cast: 
Still  His  words  before  us  range 
Through  the  ages,  as  they  change  : 
Wheresoe'er  the  truth  shall  lead, 
He  will  give  whate'er  we  need. 

He  is  gone — But  we  once  more 
Shall  behold  Him  as  before ; 
In  the  heaven  of  heavens  the  same, 
As  on  earth  He  went  and  came. 
In  the  many  mansions  there 
Place  for  us  He  will  prepare : 
In  that  world  unseen,  unknown, 
He  and  we  may  yet  be  one. 

He  is  gone  — But  not  in  vain, 
Wait  until  He  comes  again: 
He  is  risen,  He  is  not  here, 
Far  above  this  earthly  sphere ; 
Evermore  in  heart  and  mind 
There  our  peace  in  Him  we  find : 
To  our  own  eternal  Friend, 
Thitherward  let  us  ascend.     Amen.

Ascend,  and  claim  again  on  high 
Thy  glory  left  for  us  to  die.

And  earth  lies  stretched  beneath  Thy  feet ; 
While  myriads  in  their  bright  array 
Attend  Thee  homeward  on  Thy  way.

And  open  to  the  Lord  of  all  ; 
His  throne  receives  the  Eternal  Son, 
Both  God  and  Man  for  ever  one. 


Our  great  High  Priest  and  Shepherd,  Thou 
Within  the  veil  art  entered  now, 
To  oner  there  Thy  precious  Blood 
Once  poured  on  earth  a  cleansing  Hood. 

And  thence  the  Church,  Thy  chosen  Bride, 
With  countless  gifts  of  grace  supplied, 
Through  all  her  members  draws  from  Thee 
Her  hidden  life  of  sanctity.

PART  I. 

/  QEE  the  Conqueror  mounts  in  triumph ;  see  the  King  in  royal  state, 
O     Riding  on  the  clouds  His  chariot  to  His  heavenly  palace  gate  ! 
Hark  !  the  choirs  of  Angel  voices  joyful  Alleluias  sing, 
And  the  portals  high  are  lifted  to  receive  their  heavenly  King. 

Who  is  this  that  conies  in  glory,  with  the  trump  of  jubilee? 
/  Lord  of  battles,  God  of  armies,  He  has  gained  the  victory  ! 
p  He  Who  on  the  Cross  did  suffer,  He  Who  from  the  grave  arose, 
/  He  has  vanquished  sin  and  Satan,  He  by  death  has  spoiled  His  foes. 

in  f  While  He  raised  His  hands  in  blessing,  He  was  parted  from  His  friends  ; 

While  their  eager  eyes  behold  Him,  He  upon  the  clouds  ascends. 
mf  He  who  walked  with  God,  and  pleased  Him,  preaching  truth  and  doom  to  come, 

He,  our  Enoch,  is  translated  to  His  everlasting  home. 

mf  Now  our  heavenly  Aaron  enters  with  His  Blood  within  the  veil ; 
Joshua  now  is  come  to  Canaan,  and  the  kings  before  Him  quail ; 
Now  he  plants  the  tribes  of  Israel  in  their  promised  resting-place  : 
Now  our  great  Elijah  offers  double  portion  of  His  grace. 

/  Thou  hast  raised  our  human  nature  on  the  clouds  to  God's  right  hand ; 
There  we  sit  in  heavenly  places,  there  with  Thee  in  glory  stand : 
Jesus  reigns,  adored  by  Angels  ;  Man  with  God  is  on  the  throne ; 
Mighty  Lord,  in  Thine  Ascension  we  by  faith  behold  our  own.     Amen. 

PART  II. 

mf  TTOLY  Ghost,  Illuminator,  shed  Thy  beams  upon  our  eyes, 

XX     Help  us  to  look  up  with  Stephen,  and  to  see,  beyond  the  skies, 
Where  the  Son  of  Man  in  glory  standing  is  at  God's  right  hand, 
Beckoning  on  His  Martyr  army,  succouring  His  faithful  band ; 

See  Him,  Who  is  gone  before  us,  heavenly  mansions  to  prepare, 
See  Him,  Who  is  ever  pleading  for  us  with  prevailing  prayer, 
/  See  Him,  Who  with  sound  of  trumpet  and  with  His  Angelic  train, 
Summoning  the  world  to  judgment,  on  the  clouds  will  come  again. 

p  Lift  us  up  from  earth  to  heaven,  give  us  wings  of  faith  and  love,

/  Where  He  sits  enthroned  in  glory  in  His  heavenly  citadel. 

/  So  at  last,  when  He  appeareth,  we  from  out  our  graves  may  spring,

And  round  Thy  throne  unceasingly 
The  songs  of  praise  arise.

With  sin  and  care  oppressed; 
Lord,  send  Thy  promised  Comforter, 
And  lead  us  to  our  rest.

Through  earth's  most  bitter  misery 

To  pass  unto  Thy  crown  ;

With  light  and  comfort  from  above ; 
Be  Thou  our  Guardian,  Thou  our  Guide, 
O'er  every  thought  and  step  preside. 

The  light  of  truth  to  us  display, 
And  make  us  know  and  choose  Thy

Plant  holy  fear  in  every  heart,

Nor  let  us  from  His  pastures  stray  ; 
Lead  us  to  holiness,  the  road 
That   we   must   take   to   dwell   with 
God. 

Lead  us  to  God,  our  final  rest, 
To  be  with  Him  for  ever  blest ; 
Lead   us    to   heaven,    that   we    may

Fulness  of  joy  for  ever  there.    Amen.

mf  /CREATOR  Spirit,  by  Whose  aid 

The  world's  foundations  first  were  laid, 
Come,  visit  every  pious  mind  ; 
Come,  pour  Thy  joys  on  human -kind  ; 
From  sin  and  sorrow  set  us  free, 
And  make  Thy  temples  worthy  Thee. 

0  Source  of  uncreated  light, 
The  Father's  promised  Paraclete, 
Thrice  holy  Fount,  thrice  holy  Fire, 
Our  hearts  with  heavenly  love  inspire  ; 
Come,  and  Thy  sacred  unction  bring 
To  sanctify  us  while  we  sing. 

Plenteous  of  grace,  descend  from  high 
Rich  in  Thy  sevenfold  energy ; 
Make  us  eternal  truths  receive, 
And  practise  all  that  we  believe ; 
Give  us  Thyself,  that  we  may  see 
The  Father  and  the  Son  by  Thee, 

/  Immortal  honour,  endless  fame, 
Attend  the  Almighty  Father's  Name  ; 
The  Saviour  Son  be  glorified, 
Who  for  lost  man's  redemption  died ; 
And  equal  adoration  be, 
Eternal  Paraclete  to  Thee.     Amen.

'7'  T  OY  !  because  the  circling  year  Hardened  scoffers  vainly  jeered  ; 

**     Brings  our  day  of  blessings  here ;     Listening- 


Day  when  first  the  Light  divine 
On  the  Church  began  to  shine  ! 


strangers  heard  and  feared ; 
Knew  the  Prophet's  word  fulfilled  ; 
Owned  the  work  which  God  had  willed. 


Like  to  quivering  tongues  of  flame  Still  Thy  Spirit's  fulness,  Lord, 

Unto  each  the  Spirit  came  ;  On  Thy  waiting  Church  be  poured  ! 

Tongues,  that  earth  might  hear  their  Once    Thou    on    Thy    Saints   didst 

call ;  shower 

Fire,  that  love  might  burn  in  all.  Mighty  signs  and  words  of  power  ; 


So  the  wondrous  works  of  God 
Wondrously  were  spread  abroad  ; 
Every  tribe's  familiar  tone 
Made  the  glorious  marvel  known. 


Humbler  things  we  ask  Thee  now, 
Gifts  from  heaven  to  men  below  ; 
Grant  our  burdened  hearts  release, 
Grant  Thine  own  abiding  peace. 

Amen

YTTHEN  God  of  old  came  down  from  /  Arid  as  on  Israel's  awe- struck  ear 
T  t       heaven,  The  voice  exceeding  loud, 

In  power  and  wrath  He  came  ;  The    trump,    that    Angels  quake    10 

Before  His  feet  the  clouds  were  riven,  hear, 

Half  darkness  and  half  flame  :  Thrilled  from  the  deep,  dark  cloud  ; 


p  But  when  He  came  the  second  time,  mf  So,  when  the  Spirit  of  our  God 
He  came  in  power  and  love  ;  Came  down  His  flock  to  find, 

Softer  than  gale  at  morning  prime  A  voice  from  heaven  was  heard  abroad, 

Hovered  His  Holy  Dove.  A  rushing,  mighty  wind. 


/  The  fires  that  rushed  on  Sinai  down, 

In  sudden  torrents  dread, 
mf  Now  gently  light,  a  glorious  crown, 
On  every  sainted  head. 


It  fills  the  Church  of  God  ;  it  fills 
The  sinful  world  around  ; 

Only  in  stubborn  hearts  and  wills 
No  place  for  it  is  lbund. 


mf  Come,  Lord,  come  Wisdom,  Love,  and  Power, 
Open  our  ears,  to  hear  ; 
Let  us  not  miss  the  accepted  hour  ; 
Save,  Lord,  by  love  or  fear.     Amen.

WE  have  not  seen,  we  cannot  see, 
The  happy  land  above, 
From  sin  and  death  and  suffering  free, 
Where  all  is  peace  and  love  ; 

We  only  see  the  path  so  long 

By  which  we  have  to  go ; 
We  only  feel  tne  foe  so  strong 

Who  seeks  to  work  us  woe. 

We  have  not  seen,  we  cannot  see 
The  Cross  our  Master  bore, 

With  all  its  pains,  that  man  might  be 
The  devil's  slave  no  more. 


We  only  think  it  hard  to  part 

With  every  pleasant  sin, 
And  give  to  God  a  perfect  heart, 

And  make  Him  Lord  within. 

We  walk  by  faith,  and  not  by  sight ; 

And,  blessed  Saint,  like  thee, 
We  sometimes  doubt  if  faith  tells  right, 

Because  we  cannot  see. 

Upon  the  promise  we  would  lean 
Thy  doubting  heart  received  ; 

Blessed  are  they  that  have  not  seen, 
And  that  have  yet  believed.     Amen.

mf  /~\  SON  of  God,  our  Captain  of  Salvation, 

^     Thyself  by  suffering  schooled  to  human  grief, 
cr  We  bless  Thee  for  Thy  sons  of  consolation, 

Who  follow  in  the  steps  of  Thee  their  Chief: — 

////  Those  whom  Thy  Spirit's  dread  vocation  severe 
To  lead  the  vanguard  of  Thy  conquering  host ; 
Whose  toilsome  years  are  spent  in  brave  endeavours 
To  bear  Thy  saving  Name  from  coast  to  coast : — 

cr  Those  whose  bright  faith  makes  feeble  hearts  grow  stronger. 
And  sends  fresh  warriors  to  the  great  campaign, 
Bids  the  lone  convert  feel  estranged  no  longer, 
And  wins  the  sundered  to  be  one  again  : — 

P  And  all  true  helpers,  patient,  kind,  and  skilful, 
Who  shed  Thy  light  across  our  darkened  earth, 
Counsel  the  doubting,  and  restrain  the  wilful, 

Soothe  the  sick-bed,  and  share  the  children's  mirth. 

mf  Such  was  Thy  Levite,  strong  in  self-oblation 
To  cast  his  all  at  Thine  Apostles'  feet ; 
He  whose  new  name,  through  every  Christian  nation, 
cr       From  age  to  age  our  thankful  strains  repeat. 

mf  Thus,  Lord,  Thy  Barnabas  in  memory  keeping, 

Still  be  Thy  Church's  watchword,  "  Comfort  ye ; " 
/  Till  in  our  Father's  house  shall  end  our  weeping, 
And  all  our  wants  be  satisfied  in  Thee.     Amen.

/  TTAIL,  harbinger  of  Morn : 

J-J-     Tliou  that  art  this  day  born, 
And  heraldest  the  Word  with  clarion  voice ) 
Ye  faithful  ones,  in  him 
Behold  the  dawning  dim 
Of  the  bright  Day,  and  let  your  hearts  rejoice. 

nf  John  ; — by  that  chosen  name 

To  call  him,  Gabriel  came 
By  God's  appointment  from  his  home  on  high : 
What  deeds  that  babe  should  do 
To  manhood  when  he  grew, 
God  sent  His  Angel  forth  to  testify. 

/  There  is  none  greater,  none, 

Than  Zachariah's  son; 
Than  this  no  mightier  prophet  hath  been  born 
Of  woman.     He  may  claim 
More  than  a  prophet's  fame ; 
Sublimer  deeds  than  theirs  his  brow  adorn. 


mf       "ho,  to  prepare  Thy  way," 
Did  God  the  Father  say, 
"  Before  Thy  face  My  messenger  I  send, 
Thy  coming  to  forerun  ; 
As  on  the  orient  sun 
Doth  the  bright  daystar  morn  by  morn  attend." 

/  Praise  therefore  God  Most  High  ; 

Praise  Him  Who  came  to  die 
For  us,  His  Son  that  liveth  evermore ; 
And  to  the  Spirit  raise, 
The  Comforter,  like  praise, 
While  time  endureth,  and  when  time  is  o'er.     Amen.

f  T)RAISE  to  God  Who  reigns  above, 
A     Binding  earth  and  heaven  in  love ; 
All  the  armies  of  the  sky 
Worship  His  dread  sovereignty. 

w/  Seraphim  His  praises  sing, 
Cherubim  on  fourfold  wing, 
Thrones,  Dominions,  Princes,  Powers, 
Marshalled  Might  that  never  cowers. 

Speeds  the  Archangel  from  His  face, 
Bearing  messages  of  grace  ; 
Angel  hosts  His  words  fulfil, 
Euling  nature  by  His  Will. 


Yet  on  man  they  joy  to  wait, 
All  that  bright  celestial  state, 
For  in  Man  their  Lord  they  see, 
Christ,  the  Incarnate  Deity. 

On  the  throne  their  Lord  Who  died 
Sits  in  Manhood  glorified ; 
Where  His  people  faint  below 
Angels  count  it  joy  to  go. 

Oh,  the  depths  of  joy  divine 
Thrilling  through  those  Orders  nine, 
When  the  lost  are  found  again, 
When  the  banished  come  to  reign ! 


/  Now  in  faith,  in  hope,  in  love, 
We  will  join  the  choirs  above, 
Praising,  with  the  heavenly  Host, 
Father,  Son,  and  Holy  Ghost.     Amen.

mf  QTARS  of  the  morning,  so  gloriously  bright, 
O     Filled  with  celestial  resplendence  and  light ; 
These  that,  where  night  never  followeth  day, 
Raise  the  Tris-agion  *  ever  and  aye ; 

These  are  Thy  counsellors :  these  dost  Thou  own, 
God  of  Sabaoth  !  the  nearest  Thy  throne ; 
These  are  Thy  ministers ;  these  dost  Thou  send, 
Help  of  the  helpless  ones !  man  to  defend. 

Then,  when  the  earth  was  first  poised  in  mid-space,- 
Then,  when  the  planets  first  sped  on  their  race, — 
cr  Then,  when  were  ended  the  six  days'  employ, — 
/  Then  all  the  Sons  of  God  shouted  for  joy. 

mf  These  keep  the  guard  amidst  Salem's  dear  bowers, 
Thrones,  Principalities,  Virtues,  and  Powers  : 
Where  with  the  Living  Ones,  mystical  Four, 
dim  Cherubim,  Seraphim,  bow  and  adore.  _nu 

mf  Still  let  them  succour  us ;  still  let  them  fight, 
Lord  of  Angelic  Hosts,  battling  for  right ! 
Till,  where  their  anthems  they  ceaselessly  pour, 
dim  We  with  the  Angels  may  bow  and  adore ! 


*  A  Greek  versicle  used  in  the  Eastern  and  Gallican  liturgies:  "Holy  God,  holy  mighty,  holy 
immortal,  have  mercy  upon  us."     Tris-agion  means  "  thrice-holy."

HAT  thanks  and  praise  to  Thee  mf  What    countless   worshippers    have 


we  owe,

For  Thy  dear  Saint  through  whom  we 
know 
So  many  a  gracious  word  of  Thine ; 

mf  Whom  Thou  didst  choose  to  tell  the  tale 
Of  all  Thy  Manhood's  toils  and  tears, 
And  for  a  moment  lift  the  veil 

That  hides  Thy  Boyhood's  spotless 
years. 


sung, 
In  lowly  fane  or  lofty  choir, 
The    song   that   loosed    the    silent 

tongue 
Of  him  who  was  the  Baptist's  sire  ! 

/  And  still  the  Church  through  all  her 
days, 
Uplifts  the  strains  that  never  cease, 
The  Blessed  Virgin's  hymn  of  praise, 


p       The  aged  Simeon's  words  of  peace. 
How  many  a  soul  with  guilt  oppressed  mf  0  happy  Saint !  whose  sacred  page, 


Has  learned  to  hear  the  joyful  sound 
In  that  sweet  tale  of  sin  confessed, 
The    Father's    love,    the   lost    and 
found ! 

How  many  a  child  of  sin  and  shame 
Has  refuge  found  from  guilty  fears 

Through  her,  who  to  the  Saviour  came 
With   costly   ointments   and    with 
tears ! 


So  rich  in  words  of  truth  and  love, 
Pours  on  the  Church  from  age  to 
age 
This  healing  unction  from  above  ; 

The  witness  of  the  Saviour's  life, 
The  great  Apostle's  chosen  friend 

Through    weary   years    of   toil    and 
strife, 
And  still  found  faithful  to  the  end. 


So  grant  us,  Lord,  like  him  to  live, 
Beloved  by  man,  approved  by  Thee, 

Till  Thou  at  last  the  summons  give, 
And  we,  with  him,  Thy  face  shall  see.

Partners  in  the  night  of  toiling,

Each  in  his  appointed  place ; 

mf  Praise  to  Thee  for  those  Thy  champions 
Whom  our  hymns  to-day  proclaim ;

Burned  anew  with  nobler  Maine ;

Spake  in  love,  and  wrought  in  power ; 

Seen  in  mighty  signs  and  wonders 
In  Thy  Church's  morning  hour ; 

Heard  in  tones  of  sternest  warning 
When  the  storms  began  to  lour. 


D   } 


p  Once  again  those  storms  are  breaking 
Hearts  are  failing,  love  grows  cold 

Faith  is  darkened,  sin  abounding; 
Grievous  wolves  assail  Thy  fold : 

Save  us,  Lord,  our  One  Salvation ; 
Guard  the  Faith  revealed  of  old. 

mf  Call  the  erring  by  Thy  pity ; 

Warn  the  tempted  by  Thy  fear ; 
Keep  us  true  to  Thine  allegiance, 

Counting  life  itself  less  dear, 
Standing  firmer,  holding  faster, 

As  we  see  the  end  draw  near. 

Till,  with  holy  Jude  and  Simon 
And  the  thousand  faithful  more, 

We,  the  good  confession  witnessed 
And  the  life-long  conflict  o'er, 

On  the  sea  of  fire  and  crystal 
Stand,  and  wonder,  and  adore. 


God  the  Father,  great  and  wondrous 
In  Thy  works,  to  Thee  be  praise; 

King  of  Saints,  to  Thee  be  glory, 
Just  and  true  in  all  Thy  ways  ; 

Praise  to  Thee,  from  both  proceeding, 

Holy  Ghost,  through  endless  days.     Amen.

-*-      Two  blest  Apostles  stand, 
For  ever  in  Thy  holy  Church

And  still  Thy  law  obeys  ; 
Which,  while  with  Stephen  it  rebukes, 
With  Stephen  loves  and  prays. 

So  may  we  with  Thy  brethren,  Lord, 

In  heavenly  glory  be  ; 
For  fellowship  in  holy  love 

Is  brotherhood  to  Thee.

All  the  number  of  the  blest, 
He,  perchance,  can  weigh  the  gladness 

Of  the  everlasting  rest 
Which,  their  earthly  warfare  finished, 

They  through  sufferings  have  possest. 

Through  the  vale  of  lamentation 

Happily  and  safely  past,

In  their  memory  they  recast, 
And  the  fulness  of  perfection

Shall  revealed  in  glory  be; 
While  we  hail  the  Threefold  Godhead, 

And  the  simple  Unity. 

Wherefore,  man,  take  heart  and  courage 
Whatsoe'er  thy  present  pain  ;

Thou  mayest  merit  to  attain  ; 

And  for  ever  in  His  glory

mjf  TT7H0  are  these,  like  stars  appearing, 

V  V       These,  before  God's  throne  who  stand  ! 
Each  a  golden  crown  is  wearing — 
Who  are  all  this  glorious  band  ? 
/       Alleluia  !  hark,  they  sing, 

Praising  loud  their  heavenly  King ! 


mf  Who  are  these  of  dazzling  brightness, 
These  in  God's  own  truth  arrayed, 
Clad  in  robes  of  purest  whiteness, 
Robes  whose  lustre  ne'er  shall  fade, 
Ne'er  be  touched  by  time's  rude  hand — 
Whence  conies  all  this  glorious  band? 

/  These  are  they  who  have  contended 
For  their  Saviour's  honour  long, 
Wrestling  on  till  life  was  ended, 
Following  not  the  sinful  throng ; 
These,  who  well  the  fight  sustained, 
Triumph  through  the  Lamb  have  gained. 

p  These  are  they  whose  hearts  were  riven, 
Sore  with  woe  and  anguish  tried, 
Who  in  prayer  full  oft  have  striven 
With  the  God  they  glorified ; 

/       Now,  their  painful  conflict  o'er, 
God  has  bid  them  weep  no  more. 


mf  These,  the  Almighty  contemplating, 
Did  as  Priests  before  Him  stand, 
Soul  and  body  always  waiting 
Day  and  night  at  His  command: 
/       Now  in  God's  most  holy  place 

Blest  they  stand  before  His  face.     Amen.

How  bright  these  glorious  spirits  shine  ! — 236

mf  i^\  IVE  me  the  wings  of  faith  to  rise 
vX     Within  the  veil,  and  see 
The  Saints  above,  how  great  their  joys, 
How  bright  their  glories  be. 

P  Once  they  were  mourning  here  below, 

And  wet  their  couch  with  tears  ; 
mf  They  wrestled  hard,  as  we  do  now, 
With  sins  and  doubts  and  fears. 


p  I  ask  them,  whence  their  victory  came  ; 
/       They  with  united  breath, 

Ascribe  the  conquest  to  the  Lamb, 
Their  triumph  to  His  Death. 

mf  They  marked  the  footsteps  that  He  trod, 
His  zeal  inspired  their  breast : 
And,  following  their  Incarnate  God, 
Possess  the  promised  rest. 

/  Our  glorious  Leader  claims  our  praise 
For  His  own  pattern  given ; 
While  the  long  cloud  of  witnesses 

Show  the  same  path  to  heaven.     Amen.

Before  the  throne  on  high, 
And  serve  the  God  they  love  amidst

With  glad  Hosannas  ring.

Diffuse  eternal  day.

Shall  o'er  them  still  preside, 
Feed  them  with  nourishment  Divine, 
And  all  their  footsteps  guide.

Where  living  streams  appear ;

/  TTAIL !  Princes  of  the  Host  of  heaven, 

To  whom  by  Christ,  your  Chief,  'tis  given 
On  twelve  bright  thrones  to  sit  on  high, 
And  judge  the  world  with  equity. 

mf  'Tis  yours  to  cheer  with  sacred  light 
Those  who  lie  sunk  in  sin's  dark  night ; 
To  guide  them  in  the  upward  path, 
And  rescue  them  from  endless  wrath. 

With  no  vain  arts,  no  earthly  sword, 

Ye  quell  the  rebels  of  the  Lord  ; 
cr  The  Cross,  the  Cross  which  men  despise, 
f  'Tis  that  achieves  your  victories. 

mf  Through  you  the  wondrous  works  of  God 
Are  spread  through  every  land  abroad ; 
Thus  every  clime  records  your  fame, 
And  distant  ages  praise  your  name. 


/  And  now  to  God,  the  Three  in  One, 
Be  highest  praise  and  glory  done, 
Who  calleth  us  from  sin's  dark  night, 
To  walk  in  His  eternal  light.     Amen.

Turns  the  martyrs'  sadness:

mf  C\  MASTER,  it  is  good  to  be 

\J     High  on  the  mountain  here  with  Thee  : 

Where  stand  revealed  to  mortal  gaze 

Those  glorious  Saints  of  other  days ; 

Who  once  received  on  Horeb's  height 

The  eternal  laws  of  truth  and  right; 

Or  caught  the  still  small  whisper,  higher 

Than  storm,  than  earthquake,  or  than  fire. 


0  Master,  it  is  good  to  be 

With  Thee,  and  with  Thy  faithful  three: 

Here,  where  the  Apostle's  heart  of  rock 

Is  nerved  against  temptation's  shock ; 

Here,  where  the  son  of  thunder  learns 

The  thought  that  breathes,  and  word  that  burns ; 

Here,  where  on  eagle's  wings  we  move 

With  Him  Whose  last  best  creed  is  love. 

0  Master,  it  is  good  to  be 
Entranced,  enwrapt,  alone  with  Thee; 
And  watch  Thy  glistering  raiment  glow, 
Whiter  than  Hermou's  whitest  snow 
The  human  lineaments  that  shine 
Irracliant  with  a  light  divine  : 
Till  we  too  change  from  grace  to  grace 
Gazing  on  that  transfigured  Face. 

0  Master,  it  is  good  to  be 
Here  on  the  Holy  Mount  with  Thee  : 
WThen  darkling  in  the  depths  of  night, 
Wrhen  dazzled  with  excess  of  light, 
We  bow  before  the  heavenly  voice 
That  bids  bewildered  souls  rejoice, 
Though  love  wax  cold,  and  faith  be  dim — 
/  "  This  is  My  Son — Oh  hear  ye  Him."     Amen.

PART  I. 


BE  still,  my  soul !  for  God  is  near ; 
The  great  High  Priest   is  with 
thee  now ! 
The  Lord  of  Life  Himself  is  here, 
Before  Whose  face  the  Angels  how. 

To  make  thy  heart  His  lowly  throne 
Thy    Saviour    God    in    love    draws 
nigh  ; 
He  gives  Himself  unto  His  own, 

For  whom  He  once  came  down  to 
die. 


He  pleads  before  the  Mercy- seat — 
He  pleads  with  God;  He  pleads  for 
thee ;  [eat — 

He  gives  thee  Bread  from  heaven  to 
His  Flesh  and  Blood  in  mystery. 

inf  I  come,  0  Lord ! — for  Thou  dost  call — 
To  blend  my  pleading  prayer  with 
Thine ; 
To  Thee  I  give  myself — my  all, 
And  feed  on  Thee,  and  make  Thee 
mine.  Amen. 


PART  II. 


0  precious  Blood  !  so  freely  shed, 
The  pledge  of  pardon  from  above  ; 

Speak  to  my  heart,  so  cold  and  dead, 
And  wake  it  into  life  and  love. 


OBODY  bruised  for  my  sake, 
And  dying  on  the  awful  Tree ! 
That  I  from  death  new  life  should  take, 
And  live  engrafted  into  Thee. 

0  living  Bread  !  "Who  once  didst  die,  Speak  better  things  than  Abel's  blood— 
And  lay  Thee  down  in  rocky  tomb,  My  ransom  paid,  my  sins  forgiven ! 

Within  my  heart  for  ever  lie,     [gloom.  My  soul  restored  to  peace  with  God, 
And   shed   Thy  brightness   o'er  its         My  place  prepared  for  me  in  heaven. 

0  sacred  Food  !  0  cleansing  Stream  ! 

Fill  all  my  soul  with  love  divine  ; 
0  Thou,  Who  didst  my  life  redeem, 

Come  to  my  heart,  and  make  it  Thine  !     Amen.

'Mid  the  Twelve,  His  chosen  band, 
Jesus,  with  the  law  complying, 

Keeps  the  feast  its  rites  demand  ; 
Then,  more  precious  Food  supply- 
ing, 
Gives  Himself  with  His  own  hand. 


mf  Given  for  us,  and  condescending 
To  be  born  for  us  below, 
He  with  men  in  converse  blending, 
Dwelt  the  seed  of  truth  to  sow, 
p  Till    He    closed    with    wondrous 
ending 
His  most  patient  life  of  woe. 


V 


Word-inade-Flesh    true    Bread    He 
maketh 
By  His  word  His  Flesh  to  be  ; 
Wine  His  Blood ;  which  whoso  taketh 
Must  from  carnal  thoughts  be  free ; 
mf  Faith  alone,  though  sight  forsaketh, 
Shows  true  hearts  the  mystery. 

Amen. 


PART  II. 


p  rpHEREFORE  we,  before  Him  bend- 

This  great  Sacrament  revere  ; 
cr  Types  and  shadows  have  their  endiug, 

For  the  newer  rite  is  here  ; 
mf  Faith,  our  outward  sense  befriending, 

Makes  our  inward  vision  clear. 


/  Glory  let  us  give,  and  blessing 
To  the  Father,  and  the  Son, 
Honour,  might,  and  praise  addressing, 

While  eternal  ages  run  ; 
Ever  too  His  love  confessing, 

Who  from  Both  with  Both  is  One. 

Amen.

He  shows  forth  day  by  day. 

For,  as  the  priest  of  Aaron's  line 
Within  the  Holiest  stood, 

And  sprinkled  all  the  mercy- shrine 
With  sacrificial  blood  ; 


His  Manhood  pleads  where  now  it  lives 
On  heaven's  eternal  throne, 

And  where  in  mystic  rite  He  gives 
Its  Presence  to  His  own. 

And  so  we  show  Thy  death,  0  Lord,

All  things  into  life  and  light.

mf  O  AVIOUR,  Who  Thy  flock  art  feeding 
With  the  Shepherd's  kindest  care, 
All  the  feeble  gently  leading, 

While  the  lambs  Thy  bosom  share  : 


Now,  these  little  ones  receiving, 
Fold  them  in  Thy  gracious  arm ; 

There,  we  know,  Thy  word  believing, 
Only  there,  secure  from  harm. 

Never,  from  Thy  pasture  roving, 

Let  them  be  the  lion's  prey; 
Let  Thy  tenderness  so  loving 

Keep  them  through  life's  dangerous  way. 


Then  within  Thy  fold  eternal 
Let  them  find  a  resting-place  ; 

Feed  in  pastures  ever  vernal, 
Drink  the  rivers  of  Thy  grace.

mf  TJEEOLD  us,  Lord,  before  Thee  met, 

-D     Whom  each  bright  Angel  serves  and  fears, 
Who  on  Thy  throne  rememberest  yet 
Thy  spotless  Boyhood's  quiet  years, 
Whose  feet  the  hills  of  Nazareth  trod, 
/  Who  art  true  Man  and  perfect  God. 

mf  To  Thee  we  look,  in  Thee  confide, 

Our  help  is  in  Thine  own  dear  Name ; 
For  who  on  Jesus  e'er  relied 
cr       And  found  not  Jesus  still  the  same  ? 
p  Thus  far  Thy  love  our  souls  hath  brought, 
Oh,  stablish  well  what  Thou  hast  wrought ! 

mf  The  seed  of  our  Baptismal  life, 

0  living  Word  !  by  Thee  was  sown ; 
cr  So,  where  Thy  soldiers  wage  the  strife, 
Our  posts  we  take,  our  vows  we  own ; 
And  ask,  in  Thine  appointed  way, 
Confirm  us  in  Thy  grace  to-day. 

mf  We  need  Thee  more  than  tongue  can  speak 
'Mid  foes  that  well  might  cast  us  down ; 

But  thousands,  once  as  young  and  weak, 
Have  fought  the  fight,  and  won  the  crown. 

We  ask  the  help  that  bore  them  through  ; 

We  trust  the  Faithful  and  the  True. 

p  So  bless  us  with  the  Gift  complete 

By  hands  of  Thy  chief  pastors  given, 
That  awful  Presence  kind  and  sweet 

Which  comes  in  sevenfold  might  from  heaven. 
Eternal  Christ,  to  Thee  we  bow: 
Cj-ive  us  Thy  Spirit  here  and  now.

JL      That  earliest  wedding-day, 
The  primal  marriage  blessing, 
It  hath  not  passed  away. 

Still  in  the  pure  espousal 
Of  Christian  man  and  maid 

The  Holy  Three  are  with  us, 
The  threefold  grace  is  said, 

For  dower  of  blessed  children,  i 

For  love  and  faith's  sweet  sake, 

For  high  mysterious  union 

Which  nought  on  earth  may  break. 

p  Be  present,  awful  Father, 

To  give  away  this  bride, 
cr  As  Eve  Thou  gav'st  to  Adam 

Out  of  his  own  pierced  side.

To  join  their  loving  hands,

In  Thine  eternal  bands.

Let  no  ill  power  find  place, 
When  onward  to  Thine  Altar 
The  hallowed  path  they  trace, 

/  To  cast  their  crowns  before  Thee, 
In  perfect  sacrifice, 
Till  to  the  home  of  gladness 

With  Christ's  own  Bride  they  rise !

p  rpHOU  art  gone  to  the  grave  ;  but  we  will  not  deplore  thee, 

Though  sorrows  and  darkness  encompass  the  tomb; 
cr  Thy  Saviour  has  passed  through  its  portal  before  thee, 
/  And  the  lamp  of  His  love  is  thy  guide  through  the  gloom. 


p  Thou  art  gone  to  the  grave :  we  no  longer  behold  thee, 

Nor  tread  the  rough  path  of  the  world  by  thy  side ; 
cr  But  the  wide  arms  of  mercy  are  spread  to  enfold  thee, 
/  And  sinners  may  die,  for  the  Sinless  has  died. 

p  Thou  art  gone  to  the  grave ;  and,  its  mansion  forsaking, 

Perchance  thy  weak  spirit  in  fear  lingered  long ; 
cr  But  the  mild  rays  of  Paradise  beamed  on  thy  waking, 
/  And  the  sound  which  thou  heardst  was  the  Seraphim's  song. 

p  Thou  art  gone  to  the  grave ;  but  we  will  not  deplore  thee, 
cr  Whose  God  was  thy  ransom,  thy  guardian,  and  guide ; 
/  He  gave  thee,  He  took  thee,  and  He  will  restore  thee  ; 
ff  And  death  has  no  sting,  for  the  Saviour  has  died.     Amen.

When  the  great  water-floods  prevail, 
Leave  not  our  trembling  hearts  to  fail.

Our  souls  still  hang  their  hopes  on  Thee:

Where  should  we  lodge  our  deep  complaint  ? 

cr  Where,  but  with  Thee,  Whose  open  door 
Invites  the  helpless  and  the  poor  ? 

mf  Did  ever  mourner  plead  with  Thee, 
And  Thou  refuse  that  mourner's  plea  ? 
Does  not  the  word  still  fixed  remain 
That  none  shall  seek  Thy  face  in  vain  ? 

p  Then  hear,  0  Lord,  our  humble  cry, 

And  bend  on  us  Thy  pitying  eye  :

mf  f\  THOU,  Whom  heavenly  Hosts  obey, 
\J     How  long  shall  Thy  fierce  anger  burn  ? 
How  long  Thy  suffering  people  pray, 
And  to  their  prayers  have  no  return  ? 

Thou  broughtst  a  vine  from  Egypt's  land, 
And,  casting  out  the  heathen  race, 

Didst  plant  it  with  Thine  own  right  hand, 
And  firmly  fix  it  in  their  place. 

To  Thee,  0  God  of  Hosts,  we  pray  ; 

Thy  wonted  goodness,  Lord,  renew  ; 
From  heaven,  Thy  throne,  this  vine  survey, 

And  her  sad  state  with  pity  view. 

Behold  the  vineyard  made  by  Thee, 

Which  Thy  right  hand  did  guard  so  long ; 

And  keep  that  branch  from  danger  free, 
Which  for  Thyself  Thou  mad'st  so  strong. 

p  Do  Thou  convert  us,  Lord  ;  do  Thou 
cr       The  lustre  of  Thy  face  display ; 

And  all  the  ills  we  suffer  now, 
/       Like  scattered  clouds,  shall  pass  away.     Amen.

mf  \T7HAT  our  Father  does  is  well : 
▼  '       Blessed  truth  His  children  tell ! 
Though  He  send,  for  plenty,  want, 
Though  the  harvest-store  be  scant, 
Yet  we  rest  upon  His  love, 
Seeking  better  things  above. 

What  our  Father  does  is  well : 
Shall  the  wilful  heart  rebel? 
If  a  blessing  He  withhold 
In  the  field,  or  in  the  fold, 
Is  it  not  Himself  to  be 
All  our  Store  eternally  ? 

What  our  Father  does  is  well : 
Though  He  sadden  hill  and  dell, 
Upward  yet  our  praises  rise 
For  the  strength  His  word  supplies  ; 
He  has  called  us  sons  of  God, 
Can  we  murmur  at  His  rod  ? 

What  our  Father  does  is  well : 
May  the  thought  within  us  dwell ; 
Though  nor  milk  nor  honey  flow 
In  our  barren  Canaan  now, 
/  God  can  save  us  in  our  need, 
God  can  bless  us,  God  can  feed. 

/  Therefore  unto  Him  we  raise 
Hymns  of  glory,  songs  of  praise  ; 
To  the  Father,  and  the  Son, 
And  the  Spirit,  Three  in  One, 
Honour,  might,  and  glory  be, 
Now,  and  through  eternity.     Amen.

3n  £ime  of  Mat\ 


mf  f\  LORD  our  Banner,  God  of  might, 
Vy     Who  wast  with  Joshua  in  the  fight, 

And  Moses  on  the  hill, 
Be  with  Thy  servants  far  away, 
Their  shield  by  night,  their  guide  by  day, 

To  succour  them  from  ill. 


For  husband,  brother,  son,  and  sire, 
We  raise  up  hands  that  never  tire 

On  this  our  mount  of  prayer ; 
p  Thou  knowest,  we  but  dimly  guess, 
The  day's  long  toil,  the  night's  distress, 

And  all  they  do  and  bear. 

mf  The  battle's  issue  hangs  on  Thee ; 
In  Thy  firm  hand  the  scales  we  see 

Of  mortal  loss  and  gain  : 
And  tidings  carried  swift  as  thought 
'Twixt  land  and  land  to  Thee  are  nought 

But  Thine  own  will  made  plain. 

/  Giver  of  strength,  Oh  !  bless  and  aid 
Thy  servants  'gainst  the  foe  arrayed ; 

Go  forth  with  them  to  fight  ! 
In  battle's  storm  their  shelter  be ; 
Thy  Spirit  grant,  of  unity, 

Of  counsel,  and  of  might. 

p  Watch  o'er  the  wounded  in  tne  field, 
And,  where  the  sick  and  dying  yield 

Their  souls,  do  Thou  be  nigh  ! 
Give  peace  within  the  heart  distressed, 
And  peace  on  earth,  (cr)  and,  last  and  best, 
mf       Thy  peace  beyond  the  sky.     Amen.

wf  C\  BEAT  Ruler  of  the  nations, 
Thou  Lord  of  mortal  life, 
Whose  ageless  will  moves  forward 
Through    stress,    and    storm,    and 
strife  ; 
Though  not  in  fire  and  earthquake 

And  mighty  tempests'  roar, 
Thou  speak'st  in  still  small  accents 
When  thunders  crash  no  more. 


mf  And  now  the  clouds  are  lifting, 
The  darkness  rolls  apart, 
The  tender  light  is  dawning 
Of  peace  within  the  heart ; 
p  We  see  the  homes  around  us 

By  many  a  sorrow  torn, 
cr  But  that  soft  voice  of  comfort 
dim       Cries     "  Blest     are     they 
mourn." 


that 


p  When  storms  of  war  were  rolling 
We  bowed  our  heads  in  dust, 
With  penitence  and  sorrow, 
With  humbleness  and  trust 
cr  We  felt  Thy  judgments  near  us, 
To  Thee  we  made  our  prayer, 
Ourselves  and  ours  commending 
In  patience  to  Thy  care. 


p  Yea,  blest  are  the  departed 
Who  in  the  Lord  repose — 
All  brethren  in  Christ  Jesus, 

And  friends  who  once  were  foes. 
They  rest  from  all  their  labours, 
From  famine,  hardships,  pain, 
cr  Till  God's  last  trumpet,  sounding, 
/      Shall  bid  them  rise  again. 


mf  Oh  grant  us,  Lord,  the  blessing 
Of  those  who  make  for  peace  ; 
Be  wisdom  ours  and  mercy 
As  days  and  years  increase, 
/  Through  Him  that  overcometh, 

And  sits  enthroned  above, 
ff  Crowned  with  the  crown  of  triumph 
For  victories  of  love.     Amen.

■*-      How  rich  Thy  bounties  are  ; 
The  rolling  seasons  as  they  move 
Proclaim  Thy  constant  care. 


When  in  the  bosom  of  the  earth 

The  sower  hid  the  grain, 
Thy  goodness  marked  its  secret  birth, 

And  sent  the  early  rain. 

The  Spring's  sweet  influence,  Lord,  was  Thine,

Thou  gav'st  refulgent  suns  to  shine, 

And  mild,  refreshing  dew.

And  plenty  fills  the  plain.

From  Whom  his  blessings  flow.

-"     Thine  ancient  promise  doth  not  fail  ; 
The  varying  seasons  haste  their  round  ; 
With  goodness  all  our  years  are  crowned  ; 
/  Our  thanks  we  pay, 

This  holy  day  ; 
p  Oh  let  our  hearts  in  tune  he  found  !

When  Summer  warms  the  fruitful  earth, 
When  Winter  sweeps  the  naked  plain, 
Or  Autumn  yields  its  ripened  grain, — 

Still  do  we  sing 

To  Thee,  our  King  ; 
Through  all  their  changes  Thou  dost  reign. 

But  chiefly  when  Thy  liberal  hand 
Scatters  new  plenty  o'er  the  land, 
When  sounds  of  music  fill  the  air, 
As  homeward  all  their  treasures  bear  ; 

We  too  will  raise 

Our  hymn  of  praise, 
For  we  Thy  common  bounties  share. 

/  Lord  of  the  harvest  !    all  is  Thine  ; 
The  rains  that  fall,  the  suns  that  shine, 
The  seed  once  hidden  in  the  ground, 
The  skill  that  makes  our  fruits  abound  ; 

New,  every  year, 

Thy  gifts  appear  ; 
New  praises  from  our  lips  shall  sound.     Amen.

PRAISE  to  God,  immortal  praise, 
For  the  love  that  crowns  our  days 
Bounteous  source  of  every  joy, 
Let  Thy  praise  our  tongues  employ : 

For  the  blessings  of  the  fields, 
For  the  stores  the  garden  yields, 
Flocks  that  whiten  all  the  plain, 
Yellow  sheaves  of  ripened  grain  : 

All  the  Spring  with  bounteous  hand 
Scatters  o'er  the  smiling  land  : 
All  that  liberal  Autumn  pours, 
From  her  rich  o'erflowin£  stores  :

And  for  these,  my  soul  shall  raise 
Grateful  vows  and  solemn  praise.

From  its  stem  the  ripening  ear ; 
Should  the  fig-tree's  blasted  shoot 
Drop  her  green  untimely  fruit ;

Nor  the  olive  yield  her  store  ;     [fall,

And  the  herds  desert  the  stall ;

And  when  every  blessing's  flown,

mf  rpHE  Sower  went  forth  sowing, 
_L      The  seed  in  secret  slept 
Through  days  of  faith  and  patience. 

Till  out  the  green  blade  crept ; 
And  warmed  by  golden  sunshine 

And  fed  by  silver  rain, 
At  last  the  fields  were  whitened 

To  harvest  once  again. 
/  Oh  praise  the  heavenly  Sower, 

Who  gave  the  fruitful  seed, 
And  watched  and  watered  duly, 

And  ripened  for  our  need. 

mf  Behold  !  the  heavenly  Sower 

Goes  forth  with  better  seed, 
The  word  of  sure  Salvation, 

With  feet  and  hands  that  bleed  ; 
Here  in  His  Church  'tis  scattered, 

Our  spirits  are  the  soil  ; 
Then  let  an  ample  fruitage 

Repay  His  pain  and  toil. 
/  Oh,  beautiful  the  harvest 

Wherein  all  goodness  thrives, 
And  this  the  true  thanksgiving, 

The  first-fruits  of  our  lives.

Wlien  peaceful  earth  receiveth 

The  dead  He  died  to  gain  ;

We  know  that  they  shall  rise  ; 
Yea,  even  now  they  ripen 

In  sunny  Paradise.

0  fields  for  ever  white 
With  souls  that  wear  Christ's  raiment,

Shall  reap  where  He  hath  sown, 
And  come  again  rejoicing, 

And  with  Him  bring  His  own  ;

Shall  winnow  from  His  floor 
The  chaff  into  the  furnace 

That  flameth  evermore.

Thou  puttest  in  Thy  sickle, 

And  cast  us  not  awav.     Amen.

-L     In  hymns  of  adoration  ;

That  even  they  are  singing.

Christ's  golden  sheaves  for  evermore 

To  garners  bright  elected !

Where  golden  fields  spread  fair  and  broad, 

Where  flows  the  crystal  river.

With  ours  to-day  are  blending  ;

Wliich  never  hath  an  ending  !     Amen.

Themselves  first  training  for  the  skies,

XJ  With  Thy  Life-blood  as  the  price,

mf  TT^ROM  Greenland's  icy  mountains, 
J-      From  India's  coral  strand, 
Where  Afric's  sunny  fountains 

Roll  down  their  golden  sand ; 
From  many  an  ancient  river, 

From  many  a  palmy  plain, 
They  call  us  to  deliver 

Their  land  from  error's  chain. 


What  though  the  spicy  breezes 

Blow  soft  o'er  Java's  isle, 
Though  every  prospect  pleases, 

And  only  man  is  vile  ; 
In  vain  with  lavish  kindness 

The  gifts  of  God  are  strown ; 
j)  The  heathen,  in  his  blindness, 

Bows  down  to  wood  and  stone  ! 

mf  Can  we,  whose  souls  are  lighted 
With  wisdom  from  on  high, 
Can  we  to  men  benighted 
The  lamp  of  life  deny  ? 
/  Salvation  !  Oh,  salvation  ! 
The  joyful  sound  proclaim, 
Till  each  remotest  nation 
Has  learned.  Messiah's  Name. 

/  Waft,  waft,  ye  winds,  His  story, 

And  you,  ye  waters,  roll, 
cr  Till,  like  a  sea  of  glory, 

It  spreads  from  pole  to  pole; 
Till  o'er  our  ransomed  nature 

The  Lamb  for  sinners  slain, 
ff  Redeemer,  King,  Creator, 

In  bliss  returns  to  reign  !     Amen,

Tell  it  out,  tell  it  out ! 
Tell  it  out  among  the  nations  that  His  reign  is  love : 
Tell  it  out,  tell  it  out!

Till  it  echo  and  re-echo  from  the  islands  of  the  sea.

BLESSED  city,  heavenly  Salem, 
Vision  dear  of  peace  and  love, 
Who  of  living  stones  art  builded 
In  the  height  of  heaven  above, 
And,  with  Angel-hosts  encircled, 
As  a  bride  doth  earthward  move  ; 

From  celestial  realms  descending, 

Bridal  glory  round  thee  shed,       [thee, 
Meet  for   Him  Whose    love    espoused 

To  thy  Lord  shalt  thou  be  led  ; 
All  thy  streets,  and  all  thy  bulwarks 

Of  pure  gold  are  fashioned. 


Bright  thy  gates  of  pearl  are  shining, 

They  are  open  evermore  ; 
And  by  virtue  of  His  merits 

Thither  faithful  souls  do  soar, 
Who  for  Christ's  dear  Name  in  this 

Pain  and  tribulation  bore,      [world 

Many  a  blow  and  biting  sculpture 
Polished  well  those  stones  elect, 

In  their  places  now  compacted 
By  the  heavenly  Architect, 

Who  therewith  hath  willed  for  ever 
That  His  palace  should  be  decked. 


PART  II. 


CHRIST  is  made  the  sure  Foundation, 
Christ  the  Head  and  Corner-stone, 
Chosen  of  the  Lord,  and  precious, 
Binding  all  the  Church  in  one, 
Holy  Sion's  help  for  ever, 
And  her  confidence  alone. 

All  that  dedicated  City, 

Dearly  loved  of  God  on  high, 

In  exultant  jubilation 
Pours  perpetual  melody, 

God  the  One  in  Three  adoring 
In  glad  hymns  eternally. 


To  this  Temple,  where  we  call  Thee, 
Come,  0  Lord  of  Hosts,  to-day  ; 

With  Thy  wonted  loving-kindness 
Hear  Thy  servants,  as  they  pray ; 

And  Thy  fullest  benediction 
Shed  within  its  walls  alway. 

Here  vouchsafe  to  all  Thy  servants 
What  they  ask  of  Thee  to  gain, 

What  they  gain  from  Thee  for  ever 
With  the  Blessed  to  retain, 

And  hereafter  in  Thy  glory 
Evermore  with  Thee  to  rei^n. 


The  following  may  be  sung  at  the  end  of  each  Part  : 

Laud  and  honour  to  the  Father,

Ever  Three,  and  ever  One, 

Consubstantial,  Co-eternal, 

WThile  unending  ages  run.     Amen.

Praise  our  fathers'  God  for  mercies 
New  to  us  their  sons  to-day  : 
mf  Here  they  built  for  Him  a  dwelling, 
cr       Served  Him  here  in  ages  past, 
/  Fixed  it  for  His  sure  possession, 

Holy  ground,  while  time  shall  last. 

mf  When  the  years  had  wrought  their  changes, 
He,  our  own  unchanging  God, 
Thought  on  this  His  habitation, 

Looked  on  His  decayed  abode  ; 
Heard  our  prayers,  and  helped  our  counsels,

/  Till  once  more  His  house  is  standing 
Firm  and  stately  as  of  old.

Here,  as  once  on  Sion's  height, 
"  This  shall  be  My  rest  for  ever, 
This  My  dwelling  of  delight." 

mf  Fill  this  latter  house  with  glory 

Greater  than  the  former  knew  ; 
Clothe  with  righteousness  its  Priesthood, 

Guide  its  Choir  to  reverence  true  ; 
Let  Thy  Holy  One's  anointing 

Here  its  sevenfold  blessing  shed  ; 
Spread  for  us  the  heavenly  Banquet, 

Satisfy  Thy  poor  with  Bread.

Praise  to  Thee,  Eternal  Son  ! 
Praise  to  Thee,  all-quickening  Spirit  !

o 


THOU  in  Whom  Thy  Saints  repose, 
When  life's  brief  conflict  finds  its 
close ; 
Behold  us  met  before  Thy  face 
To  hallow  this  their  resting-place  : 
Safe  are  the  souls  whom  Thou  dost  keep ; 
And  safely  here  their  dust  shall  sleep. 

Thou  knowest,  Lord,  for  Thou  hast  wept 
Beside  the  tomb  where  Lazarus  slept, 
What  tears  must  flow,  what  hearts  must 

bleed, 
When  here  we  sow  the  precious  seed : 
Thou  still  rememberest  on  Thy  throne 
Thy  garden  grave  and  sealed  stone. 


Bid  then  Thy  Hosts  encamp  around 
This  chosen  spot  of  holy  ground : 
Here  let  calm  Hope  with  Memory 

dwell, 
And  Faith  of  heavenly  comfort  tell : 
No  thought  of  ill,  no  footstep  rude 
Profane  the  sacred  solitude. 

Here  when  Thy  mourners  shall  repair 
In  lonely  grief  and  trembling  prayer, 
Lift  Thou  sad  hearts  and  streaming 

eyes 
To  those  fair  glades  of  Paradise, 
Where  safe  within  the  guarded  gate 
Thy  ransomed  souls  in  patience  wait.

/  r\  KING  of  Saints,  0  Lord  of  might, 

Of  souls  redeemed  the  Life  and  Light, 
Thine  is  the  power  when  souls  excel 
In  grace  because  they  love  Thee  well. 
0  Jesu  blest,  in  all  Thine  own 
We  praise  Thee  for  Thyself  made  known. 

nf  And  so  we  come  ;  Lord,  guide  each  thought, 
By  grateful  love  and  memory  taught, 
That  rises  to  Thy  throne  to-day, 
The  prayer  that  hearts  in  secret  pray — 
That  these  Thy  children's  gifts  may  be 
In  blessings  made  more  worthy  Thee. 

p  Let  each  abide,  as  made  to  stand 
And  hallowed  by  Thy  loving  hand  ; 
Hear  Thou  in  heaven  each  tender  prayer, 
The  burden  of  each  heart  of  care  ; 
Keep  Thou  their  feet,  and  make  them  blest 
Who  in  the  Holiest  would  rest, 

nf  Lord,  bless  the  gifts  we  offer  here 
With  grateful  love  of  hearts  sincere  ; 

cr  Henceforth  Thine  own  ;  Oh  let  them  be 
So  used  by  those  who  worship  Thee 

/  That  every  heart  shall  learn  to  raise 

Some  better  note  of  love  and  praise.     Amen.

/  rriHINE  arm,  0  Lord,  in  days  of  old 
J-      Was  strong  to  heal  and  save  ; 
It  triumphed  o'er  disease  and  death, 
O'er  darkness  and  the  grave. 
j)  To  Thee  they  went,  the  blind,  the  dumb. 
The  palsied  and  the  lame, 
The  leper  with  his  tainted  life, 
The  sick  with  fevered  frame. 

mf  And  lo  !   Thy  touch  brought  life  and  health, 
Gave  speech  and  strength  and  sight ; 
/  And  youth  renewed  and  frenzy  calmed 

Owned  Thee,  the  Lord  of  Light. 
p  And  now,  0  Lord,  be  near  to  bless, 
Almighty  as  of  yore, 
In  crowded  street,  by  restless  couch, 
As  by  Gennesareth's  shore. 

mf  Though  love  and  might  no  longer  heal 
By  touch,  or  ward,  or  look, 
Though  they  who  do  Thy  work  must  read 
Thy  laws  in  Nature's  book; 
p  Yet  come  to  heal  the  sick  man's  soul, 
Come,  cleanse  the  sinful  taint ;        , 
mf  Give  joy  and  peace  where  all  is  strife, 
And  strength  where  all  is  faint. 

mf  Be  Thou  our  great  Deliverer  still, 

Thou  Lord  of  life  and  death ; 
Restore  and  quicken,  soothe  and  bless, 

With  Thine  almighty  breath. 
To  hands  that  work  and  eyes  that  see 

Give  wisdom's  heavenly  lore, 
That  whole  and  sick,  and  weak  and  strong 

May  praise  Thee  evermore.

We  are  of  Thee,  the  children  of  Thy  love, 
The  brothers  of  Thy  well-beloved  Son  ; 

Descend,  O  Holy  Spirit !  like  a  dove 

Into  our  hearts,  that  we  may  be  as  one  ; 

As  one  with  Thee  to  Whom  we  ever  tend, 

As  one  with  Kim,  our  Brother  and  our  Friend. 

Oh  make  us  one  in  hatred  of  all  wrong, 

One  in  our  love  of  all  things  sweet  and  fair, 

One  with  the  joy  that  breaketh  into  song, 
One  with  the  grief  that  trembles  into  prayer, 

One  in  the  power  that  makes  Thy  children  free, 

To  follow  Truth,  and  thus  to  follow  Thee. 

Oh  clothe  us  with  Thy  heavenly  armour,  Lord, 
Thy  trusty  shield,  Thy  sword  of  love  divine  ; 

Our  inspiration  be  Thy  constant  word ; 
We  ask  no  victories  that  are  not  Thine. 

Give  or  withhold,  let  pain  or  pleasure  be 

Enough  to  know  that  we  are  serving  Thee.     Amen.

mf  rpHOQ  hidden  Love  of  God,  Whose  height, 
-L      Whose  depth  unfathomed,  no  man  knows  ; 
I  see  from  far  Thy  beauteous  light, 
Inly  I  sigh  for  Thy  repose  ; 
p  My  heart  is  pained,  nor  can  it  be 
At  rest,  till  it  finds  rest  in  Thee. 

mf  'Tis  mercy  all,  that  Thou  hast  brought 
My  mind  to  seek  her  peace  in  Thee  ; 
Yet,  while  I  seek  but  find  Thee  not, 

No  peace  my  wandering  soul  shall  see  ; 
Oh  when  shall  all  my  wanderings  end, 
And  all  my  steps  to  Thee-ward  tend  ? 

Is  there  a  thing  beneath  the  sun 

That  strives  with  Thee  my  heart  to  share  ? 

Ah,  tear  it  thence,  and  reign  alone, 
The  Lord  of  every  motion  there  ! 

Then  shall  my  heart  from  earth  be  free, 

When  it  hath  found  repose  in  Thee. 

Oh  hide  this  self  from  me,  that  I 

No  more,  but  Christ  in  me,  may  live  ; 

My  vile  affections  crucify, 

Nor  let  one  darling  lust  survive  ! 

In  all  things  nothing  may  I  see, 

Nothing  desire  or  seek  but  Thee. 

Each  moment  draw  from  earth  away 

My  heart,  that  lowly  waits  Thy  call ;     =#E 
Speak  to  my  inmost  soul,  and  say, 
"I  am  thy  Love,  thy  God,  thy  All!  " 
To  feel  Thy  power,  to  hear  Thy  voice, 
To  taste  Thy  love,  be  all  my  choice.

A  Shield  that  ne'er  shall  fail  us, 
His  sword  alone  shall  succour  bring, 
When  evil  doth  assail  us; 
With  craft  and  cruel  hate 
Doth  Satan  lie  in  wait, 
And  armed  with  deadly  power, 
Seeks  whom  he  may  devour, 
Our  crafty  foe  unyielding. 


mf  Oh  !    who  shall  then  our  champion  be, 
Lest  we  be  lost  for  ever  ? 
/  One  sent  by  God, — from  sin  'tis  He 
The  sinner  shall  deliver ; 
mf  And  dost  thou  ask  His  name  ? 

ff  "lis  Jesus  Christ, — the  Same 

Of  Sabaoth  the  Lord, 
The  Everlasting  Word, — 
O'er  sin  and  death  victorious. 


mf  Though  filled  this  earth  with  fiends  may  be, 
All  eager  to  devour  us, 
Yet  are  our  minds  from  terror  free, 
They  ne'er  shall  overpower  us : 
The  prince  of  this  world  still 
May  rage  as  e'er  he  will, 
His  wrath  we  do  not  heed, 
For  why  ?   his  doom's  decreed : 
One  word  shall  overwhelm  him. 


/  God's  word  remaineth  ever  sure, 
To  us  His  goodness  showing  ; 
The  Spirit's  gifts — of  sin  the  cure — 
Each  day  He  is  bestowing ; 
mf  Though  nought  we  love  be  left, 

Of  all,  e'en  life,  bereft ; 
cr  Yet  what  shall  Satan  gain  ? 

God's  kingdom  doth  remain; 
/       And  shall  be  ours  for  ever.

/  /^\  LORIOUS  things  of  thee  are  spoken, 
VX     Zion,  city  of  our  God ; 
He,  Whose  word  cannot  be  broken, 

Formed  thee  for  His  own  abode  : 
On  the  Rock  of  ages  founded, 

What  can  shake  thy  sure  repose  ? 
With  salvation's  walls  surrounded, 

Thou  mayest  smile  at  all  thy  foes. 

mf  See,  the  streams  of  living  waters 

Springing  from  eternal  love, 
Well  supply  thy  sons  and  daughters, 

And  all  fear  of  want  remove. 
Who  can  faint,  when  such  a  river 

Ever  flows  their  thirst  to  assuage? 
Grace  which,  like  the  Lord  the  Giver, 

Never  fails  from  age  to  age  ! 

Round  each  habitation  hovering, 

See  the  cloud  and  fire  appear, 
For  a  glory  and  a  covering, 

Showing  that  the  Lord  is  near. 
Thus  they  march,  the  pillar  leading, 

Light  by  night  and  shade  by  day, 
Daily  on  the  manna  feeding, 

Which  He  gives  them  when  they  pray. 


mf  Saviour,  if  of  Zion's  city 

I  through  grace  a  member  am ; 
Let  the  world  deride  or  pity, 
/      I  will  glory  in  Thy  Name  : 
p  Fading  is  the  worldling's  pleasure, 
All  its  boasted  pomp  and  show ; 
/  Solid  joys  and  lasting  treasure 
None  but  Zion's  children  know.

Poured  for  rne  the  Life-blood 
From  His  sacred  veins.

In  that  Blood  I  find  ;

Pleaded  to  the  skies  ; 
But  the  Blood  of  Jesus 
For  our  pardon  cries. 

Oft  as  it  is  sprinkled 
On  our  guilty  hearts, 

Satan  in  confusion, 
Terror-struck,  departs. 

/  Oft  as  earth  exulting 

Wafts  its  praise  on  high, 
Angel-hosts,  rejoicing, 
Make  their  glad  reply.

Swell  the  mighty  flood  ; 
Louder  still  and  louder 
Praise  the  precious  Blood.

/  TTAIL  to  the  Lord's  Anointed, 
Great  David's  greater  Son  ! 
Hail,  in  the  time  appointed, 
His  reign  on  earth  begun  ! 
He  comes  to  break  oppression 

To  set  the  captive  free ; 
To  take  away  transgression, 
And  rule  in  equity. 


/  Kings  shall  fall  down  before  Him, 

And  gold  and  incense  bring  ; 
All  nations  shall  adore  Him, 

His  praise  all  people  sing  ; 
For  He  shall  have  dominion 

O'er  river,  sea,  and  shore, 
Far  as  the  eagle's  pinion 

Or  dove's  light  wing  can  soar. 


\if  He  comes  with  succour  speedy 

To  those  who  suffer  wrong  ; 
To  help  the  poor  and  needy, 

And  bid  the  weak  be  strong ; 
To  give  them  songs  for  sighing, 

Their  darkness  turn  to  light, 
Whose  souls,  condemned  and  dyinj 

Were  precious  in  His  sight. 


mf  For  Him  shall  prayer  unceasing 
And  daily  vows  ascend  ; 
/  His  Kingdom  still  increasing, 

A  Kingdom  without  end  : 
mf  The  mountain-dews  shall  nourish 

A  seed  in  weakness  sown, 
/  Whose  fruit  shall  spread  and  flourish. 
And  shake  like  Lebanon. 


mf  He  shall  come  down  like  showers 

Upon  the  fruitful  earth  ; 
And  love,  joy,  hope,  like  flowers, 

Spring  in  His  path  to  birth  : 
Before  Him,  on  the  mountains, 

Shall  Peace,  the  herald,  go  ; 
And  Righteousness,  in  fountains, 

From. hill  to  valley  flow. 


/  O'er  every  foe  victorious, 

He  on  His  throne  shall  rest, 
From  age  to  age  more  glorious, 

All-blessing  and  all-blest ; 
The  tide  of  time  shall  never 

His  covenant  remove ; 
His  Name  shall  stand  for  ever, 
That  Name  to  us  is — Love.

HEAL  us,  Emmanuel ;  hear  our  prayer ; 
We  wait  to  feel  Thy  touch : 
Deep-wounded  souls  to  Thee  repair; 
And,  Saviour,  we  are  such. 

Our  faith  is  feeble,  we  confess  ; 

We  faintly  trust  Thy  word: 
But  wilt  Thou  pity  us  the  less  ? 

Be  that  far  from  Thee,  Lord ! 

Remember  him  who  once  applied 

With  trembling  for  relief; 
Lord,  I  believe,"  with  tears  he  cried, 
"Help  Thou  mine  unbelief!" 

She  too,  who  touched  Thee  in  the  press, 

And  healing  virtue  stole, 
Was  answered,  "Daughter,  go  in  peace, 

Thy  faith  hath  made  thee  whole." 

Like  her,  with  hopes  and  fears  we  come 

To  touch  Thee  if  we  may; 
Oh,  send  us  not  despairing  home ; 

Send  none  unhealed  away !

Around  the  great  white  throne, 
With  harpers  harping  on  their  harps 
To  Him  Who  sat  thereon  ; 
ff"  Salvation,  glory,  honour," 
I  heard  the  song  arise, 
As  through  the  courts  of  heaven  it 
rolled 
In  wondrous  harmonies. 


mf  And  there  nor  sun  was  needed, 
Nor  moon  to  shine  by  night, 
/  God's  glory  did  enlighten  all, 

The  Lamb  Himself  the  Light : 
mf  And  there  His  servants  serve  Him, 

And,  life's  long  battle  o'er, 
/  Enthroned  with  Him,  their  Saviour, 
King, 
They  reign  for  evermore. 


/     From  every  clime  and  kindred, 

And  nations  from  afar, — 
As  serried  ranks  returning  home 

In  triumph  from  a  war  : 
I  heard  the  Saints  upraising, 

The  myriad  hosts  among, 
In  praise  of  Him  Who  died,  and  lives, 

Their  one  glad  triumph -song. 


/  O  great  and  glorious  vision  ! — 

The  Lamb  upon  His  throne — 
0  wondrous  sight  for  man  to  see  ! 

The  Saviour  with  His  own  : 
To  drink  the  living  waters, 

And  stand  upon  the  shore, 
Where  neither  sorrow,  sin;  nor  death 

Shall  ever  enter  more. 


wf    I  saw  the  Holy  City, 


ff  0  Lamb  of  God  Who  reignest ! 


The  New  Jerusalem, 
Come  down  from  heaven   a   Bride 
adorned 
With  jewelled  diadem  :  dim 

The  flood  of  crystal  waters  cr 

Flowed  down  the  golden  street ; 
And  nations  brought  their  honours     / 
there, 
And  laid  them  at  her  feet.  dim 


Thou  Bright  and  Morning  Star, 
W7hose    glory    lightens   that   new 
earth 
Which  now  we  see  from  far  ; 
0  worthy  Judge  eternal ! 

When  Thou  dost  bid. us  come, 
Then    open    wide    the    gates    of 
pearl, 
And  call  Thy  servants  home.

HEARD  the  voice  of  Jesus  say, 
"Come  unto  Me  and  rest; 
Lay  down,  thou  weary  one,  lay  down 

Thy  head  upon  My  breast." 
I  came  to  Jesus  as  I  was, 

Weary,  and  worn,  and  sad  ; 

I  found  in  Him  a  resting-place, 

And  He  has  made  me  glad. 


p     I  heard  the  voice  of  Jesus  say, 
"Behold,  I  freely  give 
The  living  water ;  thirsty  one, 

Stoop  down,  and  drink,  and  live." 
mf"I  came  to  Jesus,  and  I  drank 

Of  that  life-giving  stream; 
cr     My  thirst  was  quenched,  my  soul  revived, 
/        And  now  I  live  in  Him. 


mf    I  heard  the  voice  of  Jesus  say, 
"I  am  this  dark  world's  Light; 
Look  unto  Me,  thy  morn  shall  rise, 
And  all  thy  day  be  bright." 
cr  ■'  I  looked  to  Jesus,  and  I  found 

In  Him  my  Star,  my  Sun  ; 
/     And  in  that  Light  of  life  I'll  walk 
Till  travelling  davs  are  done.

What  a  Saviour  died  to  win  thee  ; 

Child  of  heaven,  shouldst  thou  repine  ? 

Haste  then  on  from  grace  to  glory, 

Armed  by  faith  and  winged  by  prayer  ; 
Heaven's  eternal  day  's  before  thee, 

God's  own  hand  shall  guide  thee  there. 
Soon  shall  close  thy  earthly  mission, 
Swift  shall  pass  thy  pilgrim  days  ; 
cr  Hope  soon  change  to  glad  fruition, 
/       Faith  to  sight,  and  prayer  to  praise.     Amen.

p  Sinners  gathered  round  Thee,  lepers  sought  Thy  face- 
None  too  vile  or  loathsome  for  a  Saviour's  grace. 

mf  Jesus,  I  can  trust  Thee,  trust  Thy  written  word, 
Though  Thy  voice  of  pity  I  have  never  heard. 
When  Thy  Spirit  teacheth,  to  my  taste  how  sweet —

When  we  feel  our  mortal  weakness, 
When  the  creature's  help  is  vain,

In  the  solemn  hour  of  dying, 
In  the  awful  judgment  day, 

May  our  souls,  on  Thee  relying, 
Find  Thee  still  our  Rock  and  Stay :

Oh  deliver  us,  good  Lord.    Amen.

mf  T  ORD,  it  belongs  not  to  my  care 
■*-^     Whether  I  die  or  live  ; 
To  love  and  serve  Thee  is  rny  share, 
And  this  Thy  grace  must  give. 


Come,  Lord,  when  grace  hath  made 
Thy  blessed  face  to  see  ;    [me  meet 

For  if  Thy  work  on  earth  be  sweet, 
What  will  Thy  glory  be  ! 


If  life  be  long,  I  will  be  glad 
That  I  may  long  obey  ; 

If  short,  yet  why  should  I  be  sad 
To  end  my  toilsome  day  ? 


/  There  shall  I  end  my  sad  complaints, 
And  weary  sinful  days, 
And  join  with  the  triumphant  Saints 
That  sing  Jehovah's  praise. 


Christ  leads  me  through  no  darker    p  My  knowledge  of  that  life  is  small, 
rooms  The  eye  of  faith  is  dim  ; 

Than  He  went  through  before  ;        mf  But    'tis   enough  that   Christ  knows 
He  that  into  God's  kingdom  comes  all, 

Must  enter  by  this  door.  And  I  shall  be  with  Him.     Amen.

cr  And  feel  at  heart  that  One  above 
In  perfect  wisdom,  perfect  love, 
Is  working  for  the  best. 

p  How  far  from  this  our  daily  life  ! 
How  oft  disturbed  by  anxious  strife, 
By  sudden  wild  alarms  ! 
cr  Oh,  could  we  but  relinquish  all 
Our  earthly  props,  and  simply  fall 
On  Thy  almighty  arms  ! 

p  Could  we  but  kneel  and  cast  our  load, 

E'en  while  we  pray,  upon  our  God  ; 
cr       Then  rise  with  lightened  cheer, 
mf  Sure  that  the  Father,  Who  is  nigh 
To  still  the  famished  raven's  cry. 
Will  hear  in  that  we  fear. 

p  We  cannot  trust  Him  as  we  should ; 
So  chafes  frail  nature's  restless  mood 
To  cast  its  peace  away  ; 
mf  Yet  birds  and  flowerets  round  us  preach, 
All,  all  the  present  evil  teach 
Sufficient  for  the  day. 

mf  Lord,  make  these  faithless  hearts  of  ours 
Such  lessons  learn  from  birds  and  flowers 

Make  them  from  self  to  cease, 
Leave  all  things  to  a  Father's  will, 
And  taste,  before  Him  lying  still, 
p       E'en  in  affliction,  peace.     Amen.

cr  V_/     It  fills  the  heart  with  ecstasy 
dim  That  God,  the  Son  of  God,  should  take 
Our  mortal  form  for  mortals'  sake. 

mf  He  sent  no  Angel  to  our  race, 
Of  higher  or  of  lower  place, 
But  wore  the  robe  of  human  frame, 
And  He  Himself  to  this  world  came. 

Nor  willed  He  only  to  appear, 
His  pleasure  was  to  tarry  here  ; 
And  God  and  Man  with  man  would  be 
The  space  of  thirty  years  and  three. 

For  us  baptized  !    for  us  He  bore 
His  holy  fast  and  hungered  sore  ; 
For  us  temptation  sharp  He  knew, 
/  For  us  the  tempter  overthrew. 

mf  For  us  He  preaches  and  He  prays, 

Would  do  all  things,  would  try  all  ways, 
By  words  and  signs  and  actions  thus 
Still  seeking  not  Himself  but  us. 

p  For  us  to  wicked  men  betrayed, 

Scourged,  mocked,  in  purple  robe  arrayed, 
For  us  He  bore  the  Cross's  death  ; 
For  us  at  length  gave  up  His  breath. 

/  For  us  He  rose  from  death  again, 
For  us  He  went  on  high  to  reign, 
For  us  He  sent  His  Spirit  here 
To  guide,  to  strengthen,  and  to  cheer. 

/  To  Him  Whose  boundless  love  has  won 
Salvation  for  us  through  His  Son, 
To  God  the  Father,  glory  be 
Both  now  and  through  eternity.     Amen.

The  rites  we  shared,  the  prayers  we  prayed, 
What  can  we  ask,  but  yet  once  more 
The  pardon  craved  so  oft  before — 

Too  oft  with  feelings  half  untrue, 
That  came  and  passed  like  early  dew — 
mf  Now,  Lord,  the  changeful  mood  control, 
And  root  repentance  in  the  soul. 

cr  0  let  Thy  touch  of  cleansing  fire 
Set  hearts  aglow  with  high  desire, 
And  so  burn  out  each  guilty  stain, 
That  it  may  grieve  Thee  ne'er  again. 

/  Then  lead  us,  as  with  loving  hand, 

Eight  on  through  duty's  broadening  land, 
Where  souls  from  inward  falseness  free 
Find  light  and  strength  and  peace  in  Thee.

J 


mf  f\H.  what,  if  we  are  Christ's, 
^    Is  earthly  shame  or  loss  ? 
/  Bright  shall  the  crown  of  glory  be 
When  we  have  borne  the  cross. 


mf      Lord,  may  that  grace  be  ours, 
Like  them  in  faith  to  bear 
p  All  that  of  sorrow,  grief,  or  pain 
May  be  our  portion  here. 


Keen  was  the  trial  once, 
Bitter  the  cup  of  woe, 
"When  martyred  Saints,  baptized  in 
blood, 
Christ's  sufferings  shared  below  : 


mf       Enough  if  Thou  at  last 

The  word  of  blessing  give, 
And    let     us    rest    beneath     Thy 
feet, 
Where  Saints  and  Angels  live. 


/       Bright  is  their  glory  now, 
Boundless  their  joy  above, 
Where,  on  the  bosom  of  their  God, 
They  rest  in  perfect  love. 


All  glory,  Lord,  to  Thee, 
Whom  heaven  and  earth  adore  ; 
To  Father,  Son,  and  Holy  Ghost, 
One  God  for  evermore.     Amen.

/  ^\H,  what  the  joy  and  the  glory  must  be, 

V_/     Those  endless  Sabbaths  the  blessed  ones  see  ! 
Crowns  for  the  valiant,  to  weary  ones  rest ; 
God  shall  be  All  and  in  all  ever  blest ! 

mf  What  are  the  Monarch,  His  court,  and  His  throne  ? 
What  are  the  peace  and  the  joy  that  they  own  ? 
Oh,  that  the  blest  ones,  who  in  it  have  share, 
All  that  they  feel  could  as  fully  declare  ! 

Truly  Jerusalem  name  we  that  shore, 

Vision  of  peace,  that  brings  joy  evermore  ! 

Wish  and  fulfilment  can  severed  be  ne'er, 

Nor  the  thing  prayed  for  come  short  of  the  prayer. 

There,  where  no  troubles  distraction  can  bring, 
We  the  sweet  anthems  of  Sion  shall  sing, 
While  for  Thy  grace,  Lord,  their  voices  of  praise 
Thy  blessed  people  eternally  raise. 

There  dawns  no  Sabbath,  no  Sabbath  is  o'er, 
Those  Sabbath-keepers  have  one  evermore ; 
/  One  and  unending  is  that  triumph -song 
Which  to  the  Angels  and  us  shall  belong. 

p  Now  in  the  meanwhile,  with  hearts  raised  on  high, 
We  for  that  country  must  yearn  and  must  sigh  ; 
Seeking  Jerusalem,  dear  native  land, 
Through  our  long  exile  on  Babylon's  strand. 

mf  Low  before  Him  with  our  praises  we  fall, 
cr  Of  Whom,  and  in  Whom,  and  through  Whom  are  all  ; 
/  Of  Whom,  the  Father  ;  and  in  Whom,  the  Son  ; 

Through  Whom,  the  Spirit,  with  Them  ever  One.     Amen,

All  glorious  above,

His  power  and  His  love, 
Our  Shield  and  Defender, 

The  Ancient  of  days, 
Pavilioned  in  splendour, 

And  girded  with  praise  ! 


Thy  bountiful  care 

"What  tongue  can  recite  ? 
It  breathes  in  the  air  ; 

It  shines  in  the  light ; 
It  streams  from  the  hills  ; 

It  descends  to  the  plain  ; 
And  sweetly  distils 

In  the  dew  and  the  rain. 


Oh  tell  of  His  might, 

Oh  sing  of  His  grace, 
Whose  robe  is  the  light, 

Whose  canopy  space. 
His  chariots  of  wrath 

The  deep  thunder-clouds  form, 
And  dark  is  His  path 

On  the  wings  of  the  storm. 


P  Frail  children  of  dust, 
And  feeble  as  frail, 
cr  In  Thee  do  we  trust,

Of  wonders  untold, 
Almighty,  Thy  power 

Hath  founded  of  old, 
Hath  stablished  it  fast 

By  a  changeless  decree, 
And  round  it  hath  cast, 

Like  a  mantle,  the  sea. 


/  0  measureless  Might  ! 
Ineffable  Love 
While  Angels  delight 
To  hymn  Thee  above, 
to/  The  humbler  creation, 

Though  feeble  their  lays, 
cr  With  true  adoration 

Shall  lisp  to  Thy  praise.    Amen.

mf  pOUR  out  Thy  Spirit  from  on  high ; 

Lord,  Thine  assembled  servants  bless; 
Graces  and  gifts  to  each  supply, 

And  clothe  Thy  priests  with  righteousness. 

Within  Thy  temple  when  they  stand, 
To  teach  the  truth,  as  taught  by  Thee, 

Saviour,  like  stars  in  Thy  right  hand 
The  Angels  of  the  Churches  be. 

Wisdom  and  zeal  and  faith  impart, 
Firmness  and  meekness  froru  above, 

To  bear  Thy  people  in  their  heart, 

And  love  the  souls  whom  Thou  dost  love; 

p  To  watch  and  pray,  and  never  faint ; 

By  day  and  night  strict  guard  to  keep ; 
To  warn  the  sinner,  cheer  the  Saint, 

Nourish  Thy  lambs,  and  feed  Thy  sheep. 

mf  Then,  when  our  work  is  finished  here, 
In  humble  hope  our  charge  resign  ; 
cr  When  the  Chief  Shepherd  shall  appear, 

0  God !  may  they  and  we  be  Thine.     Amen.

w?/T)RAYER  is  the  soul's  sincere  desire, 
J-       Uttered  or  unexpressed  ; 
The  motion  of  a  hidden  fire, 
That  trembles  in  the  breast. 

Prayer  is  the  burden  of  a  sigh, 

The  falling  of  a  tear, 
The  upward  glancing  of  an  eye, 

When  none  but  God  is  near. 

Prayer  is  the  simplest  form  of  speech 

That  infant  lips  can  try, 
Prayer  the  sublimest  strains  that  reach 

The  Majesty  on  high. 

Prayer  is  the  Christian's  vital  breath, 
The  Christian's  native  air, 

His  watchword  at  the  gates  of  death  : 
He  enters  heaven  with  prayer. 


Prayer  is  the  contrite  sinner's  voice, 

Returning  from  his  ways  ; 
While  Angels  in  their  songs  rejoice. 

And  cry,  "  Behold,  he  prays." 

The  Saints  in  prayer  appear  as  one, 
In  word,  and  deed,  and  mind  ; 

While  with  the  Father  and  the  Son 
Sweet  fellowship  they  find. 

Nor  prayer  is  made  on  earth  alone, 

The  Holy  Spirit  pleads  ; 
And  Jesus  on  the  eternal  throne 

For  sinners  intercedes. 

0  Thou  by  Whom  we  come  to  God, 
The  Life,  the  Truth,  the  Way, 

The  path  of  prayer  Thyself  hast  trod  ■ 
Lord,  teach  us  how  to  pray.    Amen.

With  voice  as  full  and  strong 
As  ocean's  surging  praise,    [loved, 
Send  forth  the  hymns  our  fathers 
The  psalms  of  ancient  days. 

Yes,  on,  through  life's  long  path, 
Still  chanting  as  ye  go, 
From  youth  to  age,  by  night  and  day, 
In  gladness  and  in  woe. 

Still  lift  your  standard  high, 
Still  march  in  firm  array, 
As   warriors  through   the  darkness 
toil 
Till  dawns  the  golden  day. 

At  last  the  march  shall  end, 
The  wearied  ones  shall  rest, 
The    pilgrims    find    their    Father's 
Jerusalem  the  blest.  [house, 

Then  on,  ye  pure  in  heart,

mf  O  AVIOUE,  Blessed  Saviour, 

^     Listen  while  we  sing ; 
cr  Hearts  and  voices  raising 
/      Praises  to  our  King. 
mf  All  we  have  we  offer ; 
All  we  hope  to  be, 
Body,  soul,  and  spirit, 
All  we  yield  to  Thee. 


/  Great,  and  ever  greater, 

Are  Thy  mercies  here  ; 
True  and  everlasting 

Are  the  glories  there  ; 
Where  no  pain  or  sorrow, 

Toil  or  care,  is  known  ; 
Where  the  Angel  legions 

Circle  round  Thy  throne. 


p  Farther,  ever  farther 

From  Thy  wounded  side, 
Heedlessly  we  wandered, 

Wandered  far  and  wide ; 
cr  Till  Thou  cam'st  in  mercy 

Seeking  young  and  old, 
mf  Lovingly  to  bear  them, 

Saviour,  to  Thy  fold. 


/  Brighter  still,  and  brighter, 
Glows  the  western  sun, 
Shedding  all  its  gladness 

O'er  our  work  that's  done 
Time  will  soon  be  over, 
Toil  and  sorrow  past, 
p  May  we,  Blessed  Saviour, 
Find  a  rest  at  last. 


mf  Nearer,  ever  nearer, 

Christ,  we  draw  to  Thee, 
p  Deep  in  adoration 

Bending  low  the  knee. 
Thou  for  our  redemption 
Cam'st  on  earth  to  die  ; 
/  Thou,  that  we  might  follow, 
Hast  gone  up  on  high. 


mf  Onward,  ever  onward, 

Journeying  o'er  the  road 
Worn  by  Saints  before  us, 
Journeying  on  to  God  ; 
cr  Leaving  all  behind  us, 
May  we  hasten  on, 
Backward  never  looking 
/       Till  the  prize  is  won. 


/  Higher  then,  and  higher, 
Bear  the  ransomed  soul, 
Earthly  toils  forgotten, 
Saviour,  to  its  goal ; 
cr  Where,  hi  joys  unthought  of, 
Saints  with  Angels  sing, 
Never  weary,  raising 

Praises  to  their  King.     Amen,

<f  T^OR  thee,  0  clear,  dear  countrv 
Mine  eves  their  vigils  keep  ; 
For  very  love,  beholding 

Thy  happy  name,  they  weep  : 


Thine  ageless  walls  are  bonded 
With  amethyst  unpriced  ; 

The  Saints  thy  golden  fabric, 
Thy  corner-stone  is  Christ. 


cr  The  mention  of  thy  glory 
Is  unction  to  the  breast, 
And  medicine  in  sickness, 
dim       And  love,  and  life,  and  rest. 


Thou  hast  no  shore,  fair  ocean  ! 

Thou  hast  no  time,  bright  day  ! 
Dear  fountain  of  refreshment 

To  pilgrims  far  away  ! 


mj  0  one,  0  only  mansion  ! 
0  Paradise  of  joy  ! 
Where  tears  are  ever  banished, 
And  smiles  have  no  alloy  ; 


Upon  the  Rock  of  ages 

They  raise  thy  holy  tower  ; 

Thine  is  the  victor's  laurel, 
And  thine  the  golden  dower, 


Beside  thy  living  waters 

All  plants  are,  great  and  small, 
The  cedar  of  the  forest, 

The  hyssop  of  the  wall : — 


mf  0  sweet  and  blessed  country, 
Shall  I  thy  glories  see  ? 
0  sweet  and  blessed  country 
Is  such  a  prize  for  me  ? 


With  jasper  glow  thy  bulwarks, 
Thy  streets  with  emeralds  blaze, 

The  sardius  and  the  topaz 
Unite  in  thee  their  rays  ; 


/  Exult,  0  dust  and  ashes, 

The  Lord  shall  be  thy  part : 
His  only,  His  for  ever, 

Thou  shalt  be,  and  thou  art. 

Amen.

And  bright  with  many  an  Angel 
And  all  the  martyr  throng.

cr  Shall  be,  like  man,  new-born  : 

/  The  heavens — unrolled  through  unimagined  years, — 
Be  bright  with  endless  morn  ; 
No  room  is  there  for  sorrow, 

Toil,  trouble,  want,  or  care, 
None  anxious  for  the  morrow, — 
There  is  no  morrow  there. 

/  Light  there,  eternal  light  and  life  shall  reign 
O'er  all  without,  within  ; 
No  stricken  soul  e'er  bow  beneath  the  pain 
Of  unforgotten  sin  ; 
The  day  shall  have  no  ending, 

No  night  its  shadows  cast, 

All  present  gladness  blending 

With  gladness  in  the  past. 

mf  We  darkly  now,  as  in  a  mirror,  see 
These  wondrous  worlds  on  high  ; 
Help  us,  0  Lord,  to  live  our  life  in  Thee5 
The  Life  that  cannot  die  ; 
cr       Till  heavenward  ever  soaring, 

By  Thy  redeeming  grace, 
/       Before  Thy  throne  adoring 
We  see  Thee  face  to  face.

Lo,  such  the  child  whose  early  feet 

The  paths  of  peace  have  trod  ; 
Whose  secret  heart  with  influence  sweet 

Is  upward  drawn  to  God. 

p  By  cool  Siloam's  shady  rill 
The  lily  must  decay; 
The  rose,  that  blooms  beneath  the  hill, 
Must  shortly  fade  away. 

0  Thou,  Whose  infant  feet  were  found 

Within  Thy  Father's  shrine, 
Whose  years,  with  changeless  virtue  crowned, 
Were  all  alike  divine  : 

c±dln 
cr  Dependent  on  Thy  bounteous  breath, 

We  seek  Thy  grace  alone, 
In  childhood,  manhood,  age,  and  death, 
To  keep  us  still  Thine  own.

Cbil&ren's  tenuis, 


p       TTUSHED  was  the  evening  hymn, 
J-X     The  temple  courts  were  dark  ; 
The  lamp  was  burning  dim 
Before  the  sacred  ark ; 
/  When  suddenly  a  Voice  Divine 

Rang  through  the  silence  of  the  shrine. 

])       The  old  man,  meek  and  mild, 
The  priest  of  Israel,  slept ; 
His  watch  the  temple-child, 
The  little  Levite,  kept ; 
And  what  from  Eli's  sense  was  sealed 
cr  The  Lord  to  Hannah's  son  revealed. 

mf      Oh  !  give  me  Samuel"s  ear, 
The  open  ear,  0  Lord, 
Alive  and  quick  to  hear 
Each  whisper  of  Thy  word, 
Like  him  to  answer  at  Thy  call, 
And  to  obey  Thee  first  of  all. 

Oh  !  give  me  Samuel's  heart, 

A  lowly  heart  that  waits 
Where  in  Thy  house  Thou  art, 
Or  watches  at  Thy  gates 
By  day  and  night,  a  heart  that  still 
Moves  at  the  breathing  of  Thy  will. 

Oh  !  give  me  Samuel's  mind, 

A  sweet  unmurmuring  faith, 
Obedient  and  resigned 

To  Thee  in  life  and  death, 
cr  That  I  may  read  with  childlike  eyes 

Truths  that  are  hidden  from  the  wise.     Amen.

mf  T  THINK  when  I  read  that  sweet  story  of  old, 
When  Jesus  was  here  among  men, 
How  He  called  little  children  as  lambs  to  His  fold  ; 
I  should  like  to  have  been  with  Him  then. 

I  wish  that  His  hands  had  been  placed  on  my  head. 

That  His  arm  had  been  thrown  around  me, 
And  that  I  might  have  seen  His  kind  look  when  He  said, 
"Let  the  little  ones  come  unto  Me." 

v  Yet  still  to  His  footstool  in  prayer  I  may  go, 

And  ask  for  a  share  in  His  love, 
er  And  if  I  now  earnestly  seek  Him  below, 

I  shall  see  Him  and  hear  Him  above : 

nif  In  that  beautiful  place  He  is  gone  to  prepare 
For  all  who  are  washed  and  forgiven  ; 
And  many  dear  children  are  gathering  there, 
For  of  such  is  the  kingdom  of  heaven. 

p  But  thousands  and  thousands  who  wander  and  fall 

Never  hear  of  that  heavenly  home  ; 
mf  I  should  like  them  to  know  there  is  room  for  them  all, 
And  that  Jesus  has  bid  them  to  come. 


cr  I  long  for  that  blessed  and  glorious  time, 
The  fairest  and  brightest  and  best, 
When  the  dear  little  children  of  every  clime 
Shall  crowd  to  His  arms  and  be  blest.

w//  TT  is  a  thing  most  wonderful, 
A     Almost  too  wonderful  to  be, 
That   God's  own   Son   should  come 
from  heaven, 
And  die  to  save  a  child  like  me. 


I  sometimes  think  about  the  Cross, 
And   shut   my   eyes,   and   try  to 
see 

The  cruel  nails,  the  crown  of  thorns, 
And  Jesus  crucified  for  me  : — ■ 


And  yet  I  know  that  it  is  true  ; 

He  chose  a  poor  and  humble  lot, 
And  wept,  and  toiled,  and  mourned, 
and  died, 

For  love  of  those  who  loved  Him  not. 

I  cannot  tell  how  He  could  love 
A.  child  so  weak  and  full  of  sin  ; 

His  love  must  be  most  wonderful. 
If  He  could  die  my  love  to  win. 


But,  even  could  I  see  Him  die, 
I  could  but  see  a  little  part 

Of  that  great  Love,  which,  like  a 
fire, 
Is  always  burning  in  His  heart. 

It  is  most  wonderful  to  know 
His  love  for  me  so  free  and  sure ; 

But  'tis  more  wonderful  to  see 
My  love  for  Him  so  faint  and  poor. 


cr  And  yet  I  want  to  love  Thee,  Lord  : 

Oh,  light  the  flame  within  my  heart, 
And  I  will  love  Thee  more  and  more 
Until  I  see  Thee  as  Thou  art.

OW  the  day  is  over, 
Night  is  drawing  nigh  ; 
Shadows  of  the  evening 
Steal  across  the  sky ; 


Now  the  darkness  gathers, 

Stars  begin  to  peep, 
Birds  and  beasts  and  flowers 

Soon  will  be  asleep. 

Jesu,  give  the  weary 
Calm  and  sweet  repose  ; 

With  Thy  tenderest  blessing 
May  my  eyelids  close. 

Grant  to  little  children 
Visions  bright  of  Thee ; 

Guard  the  sailors  tossing 
On  the  angry  sea. 

Comfort  every  sufferer 
Watching  late  in  pain ; 

Those  who  plan  some  evil 
From  their  sins  restrain. 

Through  the  long  night-watches 
May  Thine  Angels  spread 

Their  white  wings  above  me, 
Standing  round  my  bed. 

cr  When  the  morning  wakens, 
Then  may  I  arise 
Pure,  and  fresh,  and  sinless 
In  Thy  holy  eyes. 

/  Glory  to  the  Father, 
Glory  to  the  Son, 
And  to  Thee,  Blest  Spirit

>/»/  /^NCE  in  royal  David's  city 
\J     Stood  a  lowly  cattle  shed, 
Where  a  mother  laid  her  Baby 

In  a  manger  for  His  bed : 
Mary  was  that  mother  mild, 
Jesus  Christ  her  little  Child. 


mf  He  came  down  to  earth  from  heaven 
Who  is  God  and  Lord  of  all, 
And  His  shelter  was  a  stable, 

And  His  cradle  in  a  stall ; 
With  the  poor,  and  mean,  and  lowly, 
Lived  on  earth  our  Saviour  holy. 

mf  And,  through  all  His  wondrous  childhood, 

He  would  honour  and  obey, 
Love,  and  watch  the  lowly  maiden 

In  whose  gentle  arms  He  lay : 
Christian  children  all  must  be 
Mild,  obedient,  good  as  He. 

For  He  is  our  childhood's  Pattern, 
Day  by  day  like  us  He  grew ; 

He  was  little,  weak,  and  helpless, 
Tears  and  smiles  like  us  He  knew ; 

And  He  feeleth  for  -our  sadness, 

And  He  shareth  in  our  gladness. 

/  And  our  eyes  at  last  shall  see  Him, 
Through  His  own  redeeming  love, 
For  that  Child  so  dear  and  gentle 

Is  our  Lord  *in  heaven  above  ; 
And  He  leads  His  children  on 
To  the  place  where  He  is  gone. 

mf  Not  in  that  poor  lowly  stable, 
With  the  oxen  standing  by, 
cr  We  shall  see  Him  ;  but  in  heaven, 
Set  at  God's  right  hand  on  high; 
When  like  stars  His  children  crowned, 
All  in  white  shall  wait  around.     Amen.

▼  ▼      Nor  born  in  any  high  estate  ; 


p  When  deep  within  our  swelling  hearts 
The  thoughts  of  pride  and  anger  rise, 
What  can  we  do  for  Jesus'  sake  When  bitter  words  are  on  our  tongues, 

Who  is  so  high  and  good  and  great  ?  And  tears  of  passion  in  our  eyes ; 


We  know  the  Holy  Innocents  mf  Then  we  may  stay  the  angry  blow, 

Laid  down  for  Him  their  infant  life,  Then  we  may  check  the  hasty  word, 

id  Martyrs  brave  and  patient  Saints  p  Give  gentle  answers  back  again, 


And  Martyrs  brave  and  patient  samts  p 
Have  stood  for  Him  in  fire  and  strife.  / 


gentle  answers  oacK  again, 
And  fight  a  battle  for  our  Lord. 


We  wear  the  cross  they  wore  of  old,  mf  With  smiles  of  peace  and  looks  of  love 
Our  lips  have  learned  like  vows  to  Light   in    our   dwellings  we   may 

make :  make, 

We  need  not  die  ;  we  cannot  fight ;  Bid  kind  good-humour  brighten  there, 

What  may  we  do  for  Jesus'  sake.      j)       And  do  all  still  for  Jesus'  sake. 

Oh  !  day  by  day  each  Christian  child  mf  There's  not  a  child  so  small  and  weak 
Has  much  to  do,  without,  within ;  But  has  his  little  cross  to  take, 

A  death  to  die  for  Jesus'  sake,  His  little  work  of  love  and  praise 

A  weary  war  to  wage  with  sin.  That  he  may  do  for  Jesus'  sake.

All  our  life  of  sin  and  shame, 
Penitent,  we  breathe  Thy  Name  : 
We  beseech  Thee,  hear  us. 

Holy  Spirit  grieved,  and  tried, 
Oft  forgotten  and  defied, 
Now  we  mourn  our  stubborn  pride :

Guilty,  seek  Thy  mercy  sure,

Bound,  we  pray  to  be  made  free. 
Stained,  we  pray  for  sanctity  :

Hearing  every  contrite  sigh, 
Bidding  sinful  souls  draw  nigh, 
Willing  not  that  one  should  die

Teach  our  faltering  tongues  to  speak 
Hear  us,  Holy  Spirit. 


Coming  with  Thy  power  to  save, 
Moving  on  Baptismal  wave, 
Raising  us  from  sin's  dark  grave 
Hear  us,  Holy  Spirit. 


Come,  to  aid  the  souls  who  yearn 
More  of  truth  divine  to  learn, 
And  with  deeper  love  to  burn  : 
Hear  us,  Holy  Spirit. 


All  Thy  seven-fold  gifts  bestow. 
Gifts  of  wisdom  God  to  know, 
Gifts  of  strength  to  meet  the  foe 
Hear  us,  Holy  Spirit. 


Keep  us  in  the  narrow  way. 
Warn  us  when  we  go  astray, 
Plead  within  us  when  we  pray 
Hear  us,  Holy  Spirit. 


All  our  evil  passions  kill, 
Bend  aright  our  stubborn  will, 
Though  we  grieve  Thee,  patient  still 
Hear  us,  Holy  Spirit. 


Holy,  loving,  as  Thou  art, 
cr  Come,  and  live  within  our  heart, 
/  Never  from  us  to  depart  : 
p  Hear  us,  Holy  Spirit.     Amen.
