Praise Him with the Psaltery and Harp.
Praise Him with the timbrel and dance ;
Praise Him with stringed Instruments and Organs.
Praise Him upon the loud sounding cymbals.
Praise Him upon the high sounding cymbals.

Praise ye the Lord.

Thou Fa - ther, Spir - it. Word, Our humble voices hear, Our humble voices hear.
Thou God of earth and skies, E - ter-nal praises lise, E - ter-iial praises rise.
Of worlds, which deck the sky,
Each has its note of praise,
Joined in the nieiodj'.
Of stars which sins; God's grace.
Oh holy, holy God give ear.
While each revolving sphere
Conspire the soul to raise.
4 Tlirough your cathedral high,
Whose architect is God,
The blended echoes fly
O'er hill, and plain, and flood.
A holy, holy, holy Lord.
Is still the cea.«eless word.
Through all that bright abode.

Of

3 Tliey too of women born,
Wlio proved what faith will dare,
Unbow'd l)y scourge or scorn,
Are blest forever there.
They braved tlie foe, man's torch and sword,
They won the victor's great reward,
They won the victor's great reward.
4 AVlio that has ever shed,
(Jne penitential tear ;
Wlio lliat has toiled or bled
For truth, would linger here.
Nor long to join the sacred band,
Thf'.shinnig host of that fair land,
The shining host of that fair laud.
5 But best of all it comes.
From infant voices sweet: —
From those whose happy homea
Are at the Siiviour's leet.
And tiius they look, and thus tliey sing.
Admitting as their voices ring.
The wonders, wonders of his grace.
6 "They rest not day and night,"
Nor would they lose one strain;
For all things there unite, s
To banisli fear and paiu.
Tq catch the echo, eciio wild.
So bold, so soft, so mild, so mild,
And swell the heavenly strain.
THANKSGIVING HYMN.

2 O, well I remember his wonderful love,
And the rich wedding garments his tenderness wove;
He has covered my soul, and I never will fear.
In his heart cheering presence with joy to appear.
3 He has spread me a banquet of fruits from above,
And unfurled me a banner, the banner of love;
I have opened my spikenard, and sweet smelling myrrh,
And the fragrance he loveth perfumes all the air.
4 When under his shadow his fair one abides.
How kindly he feeds her, how gently he chides;
And tenderly sweet as the music above,
How freely he whispers of pardoning love.
5 This is my beloved, and this is my friend !
Ye daughters of Zion, he loves to the end;
"When he comes to his garden his steps you may hear,
And he waits to receive you and welcome you there.

Nor let thine anger burn,

Though heart and flesh may fail.

HOME MISSIONARY HYMN.
Saints of God, the dawn is Ijright'ning,
Tokens of our coming LordV
O'er the earth the field is whitening;
Louder rings the Master's word—
" Pray for reapers
In the harvest of the Lord."
Now, 0, Lord fulfill tliy pleasure;
Breathe upon thy chosen band,
And, with pentecostal measure,
Send forth reapers o'er our land-
Faithful reapers,
Gath'ring slieaves for thy right hand.
Ocean calleth unto ocean.
Spirits speed from shore to shore,
Heralding the world's commotion;
Hear the conflict at our door —
Mighty conflict-
Satan's deatii-cry on our shore !
4 Broad the shadow of our nation ;
Eager millions hither roam;
Lo ! tiiey wait for thy salvation;
Come. Lord Jesus ! cjuickly come ;
' By thy Spirit
Bring thy ransomed people home.
5 Soon shall end the time of weeping,
Soon tlie reaping time will come —
Heaven and earth together keeping
God's eternal Harvest Home;
Saints and angels !
Shout the world's great Harvest Home.

Invite the reaper's toil.
Where prairie flowers are blooming,
Plant Sharon's fairer rose;
The farthest wilds illuming
With light that ever glows.
Great Author of salvation,
Haste, haste, the glorious day,
Wlien too a ransomed nation.
Thy sceptre shall obey.

Thou visitest the Earth and malerest it. Ps. 65 : 9.
2 Tliy showers made soft the fields:
On every side, behold
The ripening harvest wave.
Their loads of richest gold.
The laborers sing, and, blest, rejoice.
With cheerful voice, in God, their King.
3 With life he clothes the spring.
The earth with summer warms;
He spreads the autumnal feasts,
And rides in wint'ry storms.
His gifts divine, through all appear,
And round the year his glories shine.

SUMMER. H. M. Tane
Thou hast made Summer. Ps. li : 17.
1 Lord of the worlds below.
On earth thy glories shine;
The changing seasons show,
Thy skill and power divine.
The rolling years, all full of thee;
In all we see a God appears.
2 They come, in robes of light,
The summer's flaming days;
The sun thine image bnght.
Thy majesty displays;
And oft thy voice in thunder rolls,
But still our souls in thee rejoice.

PARTING HYMN.
Tune: " Old Lavg Syne," or " Heavenly Mansions
1 Once more we would our voices join
With friends we love so well,
And in tlie music of our songs
Breathe forth a sad farewell !
We're sad to leave a place so dear,
And freely she I a tear.
Though future joys our hearts may fill.
You'll live ill memory still.
2 Here we have met. here we must part,
To meet on earth no more;
And we may never sing again
The cherished songs of yore;
'■ hy repeating last line and last two lines.
The sacred songs, our father's songs
In days of old lang syne ;
We may not meet to sing again
The songs of old lang syne.
But when we've crossed the sea of life,
And reached the heavenly shore :
We'll sing the songs our fathers sang,
Traiisc'ending tiiose of yore.
We'll meet to sing diviner strains
Than those of old lang syne;
Immortal soniis of praise unknown
In davs of old lang syne.

And wilt Thou condescend,
Thy Holy presence lend,
Thy quickening Spirit send
To bless this Faue.—Cho.

Didst bless the sacred shrine
On Zion's hill,
Come, make Thy dwelling here,
Thy habitation dear,
And thus Thy people cheer,

And love and truth be found
In union sweet.

1. By and bye, are words of meaning, Though us small as "Now and Then,"
2. Rich men hope for great- er treas-ure, Ere they pass from earth a- way ;
3. Poor folks could not bear their sorrow, They would droop their heads and die,
3. Ciiil-dren could not bear the an-guish. Which so of - ten make them cr}',

(Last Verse.)
Hal-le- lu-jah! Halle - lu-jah! I will be with Je-sus in afterlife.
3 Dear faces may surround my hearth
With smiles and glee, all thro' life;
Or I may dwell alone, and mirth
Be strange to me, all thro' life.
4 My bark is wafted to the strand
By breath divine, all thro' life;
And on the helm there rests a hand,
Other than mine, all thro' life.
One who has known in storms to sail
I have on board, all thro' life;
Above the raging of the gale
I hear my Lord, all thro' life.
He holds me with the billows might —
I shall not fail, all thro' life;
If sharp, 'tis short; if long, 'tis light;
He tempers all, all thro' life.
7 Safe to the land — safe to the land,
The end is this, when thro' life;
And then with Him go hand in hand
Far into bliss, when thro' life.

1 Father ! we bow before Thy face.
To plead with Thee, for Thy rich grace;
Here let Thy Spirit, freely given.
Gently distil hke dew from heaven.
2 Blest Spirit come ! thyself reveal,
Soften our hearts; then shall we feel
The force of Truth, the power of love.
As those who're influenced from above.
3 Unite our hearts, that all as one
May pray, " On earth Thy will be done;"
Thus may the prayer of faith arise,
Like gTatefu'l incense to the skies.
4 Our Pastor clothe with power divine;
And when he speaks the word of Thice,
May sinners hear; in Christ believe,
And all the promis'd grace receive.
5 Shepherd of Israel! do Thou lead;
In living pastures may we feed;
Feast all our souls on Jesus' love,
And tit us for Thy courts above.

Hark ! the voice of love and mercy.— Tune p. 314.
1 Hark I the voice of love and mercy
Sounds aloud from Calvary;
See ! it rends the rocks asuuder,
Shakes \.lie earth, and veils the sky;
It is linish'd:—
Hear the dying Saviour cry.
2 It is flnish'd ! 0 what pleasure
Do these precious words att'ord !
Heavenly blessings, without measure,
Flow to us Irom Christ the Lord:
It is flnish'd: —
Saints, the dying words record.
3 Tune your harps anew, ye seraphs;
Join to sing the pleasing theme;
All on earth, and all in heaven,
Join to praise Immanuel's name;
It is tinish'd: —
Glory to the l)leeding lamb.
Cod is in His holy temple. — Tune page 99.
1 God is in His holy temple;
All the earth keep silence here;
Worship Him in truth and spirit;
Rev'rence Him with godly fear;
Holy, holy
Lord of hosts, our God, appear !
2 God in Christ reveals His presence,
Throned uix)u the mercy -seat;
Saints, rejoice, and sinners, tremble;
Each prepare his God to meet;
Lowly, lowly
Bow, adoring, at His feet !
Before JehovaWs Throne. — Tune page 57 <£ 124.
1 Before Jehovah's awful throne,
Ye nations, bow with sacred joy;
know that the Lord is God alone.
He can create, and He destroy,
2 His sov'reign power, without our aid.
Made us of clay, and formed us men;
And when, like wand'ring sheep, we stray'd,
He brought us to His fold again.
3 We'll crowd Thy gates with thankful songs.
High as the heavens our voices raise;
And eartii, with her ten thousand tongues.
Shall fill Thy courts with sounding praise.
4 Wide as the world is Thy command;
Vast as eternity Thy love;
Firm as a rock Thy truth shall stand.
When rolling years shall cease to move.
How firm a Foundation. — TunepagellO.
1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
Is laid for j-our faith in His excellent word ;
What more can He say than to you He hath
said,—
To yon who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
2 Fear not. He is with thee, O be not dismayed;
For He is Thy God. and will give thee His aid :
He'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause
thee to stand,
Fpheld by His gracious, omnipotent hand.
3 When through the deep waters He calls thee
to go.
The rivers of sorrow shall ne'er overflow;
His presence shall guide thee,His mercy shall
bless.
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
4 VVlien thro' flery trials thy pathway is laid.
His grace all-sufUcient shall lend thee its aid ;
The flame shall not hurt thee; He docs but
design
Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine.
5 His people, thro' life, shall abundantly prove
His sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love;
When age with gray hairs shall their temples
adorn.
Like lambs they shall stUl in His bosom be
borne.
6 The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose,
He will not — He will not desert to its foes:
That soul— though all hell should endeavor
to shake.
He'll never— no never— no never forsake.

1 Now let onr voices join.
To form a sacred song,
Te pilgrims in Jehovah's way.

2 How strait the path appears.
How open and how fair;
No toils to catch the imweary feet.
No fierce destroyer there.
3 But flowers of paradise,
In rich profusion spring.
The Sun of Glory gilds the path.
And dear companions sing.
4 All Honor to His name,

To Him who leads the wanderer on
To realms of endless day.
O hmu happy are they. — Tune page 1 13.
1 0 how happy are they
Who the Saviour obey.
And have laid up their treasure above;
Tongue can never express
The sweet comfort and peace
Of a soul in its earliest love.
2 That sweet comfort was mine.
When the favor divine
I received through the blood of the Lamb;
When my heart first believed.
What a jov I received,—
What a heaven in Jesus's name I
3 'Twas a heaven below
My Redeemer to know.
And' the angels could do nothing more,
Than to fall at His feet,
And the storv repeat.
And the Lover of sinner's adore.
4 Jesus all the day long
Was my jov and my song:
0 that all His salvation might see;
He hath loved me, I cried.
He hath suH'ered and died.
To redeem even rebels like me.
HYMNS.

Of that holy delight
Which I felt in the life-giving blood;
Of mv Saviour possess'd,
I was perfectly blest,
As if flJl'd with the fullness of God.
WatOiman, tdl us of the night— Tune page 117.
1 Watchman, tell us of the night,
What its signs of promise are;
Trav'ler, o'er von mountain's height
See the glory beaming star.
Watchman, does its beauteous ray
Aught of hope or joy foretell?
Trav'ler, yes, it brings the day,
Promised day of Israel.
2 Watchman, teU us of the night;
Higher vet that star ascends,

Gild the spot that gave them birth?
Trav'ler, ages are its own;
See, it bursts o'er all tbe earth.
3 Watchman, tell us of the night.
For the morning seems to dawn;
Trav'ler, darkness takes its flight;
Doubt and terror are withdrawn.

Lo ! the Son of God is come.

O day for which creation
And all its tribes were made !
O joy, for all its former woes
A 'thousand fold repaid !
B O, then what raptured greetings
On Canaan's happy shore.
What knitting severed friendship up,
Where partings are no more I
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle.
That brimmed with tears of late;
Orphans no longer fatherless,
Nor widows desolate.
Jesus is Mine. — Tune page 100.
1 Pass away, earthly joy,
Jesus is mine !
Break, every mortal tie,
Jesus is mine !
Dark is the wilderness;
Distant the resting place;
Jesus alone can bless:
Jesus is mine !
2 Tempt not my soul away,
Jesus is mine I
Here would I ever stay,
Jesus is mine !
Perishing things of clay,
Bom but for one brief day,
Pass from my heart away:
Jesus is mine !
3 Fare ye well, dreams of night,
Jesus is mine !
Mine is a dawning bright,
Jesus is mine !
All that my soul has tried
Left but a dismal void;
Jesus has satisfied:
Jesus is mine !
4 Farewell, mortaUty,

Welcome, eternity,

Welcome, a Saviour's breast.
Welcome, ye scenes of rest.
Welcome, ye mansions blest:

I love thy kingdom. Lord.— Tune page 111 <£■ 120.
1 I LOVE thy kingdom, Lord,—
The house of Thine abode,—
The Church our blest Redeemer saved
With His own precious blood.
2 I love Thy Church, O God !
Her walls before Thee stand.
Dear as the apple of Thine eye.
And graven on Thy hand.
3 For her my tears shall fall:
For her "my prayers ascend:
To her my cares and toils be given.
Till toils and cares shall end.
4 Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heavenly ways;
Her sweet communion, solemn vows.
Her hymns of love and praise.

To Zion shall be given
The brightest glories earth can yield.
And brighter bliss of heaven.

Thou Laial) of Calvary,
Saviour divine:
Now liear me wliile 1 pray;
Talve all my guilt away;
O let me from this day
Be wholly Thine.

Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing:
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrim's pride,
From every mountain side
Let freedom ring.
2 My native country, thee—
Land of the noble, free —
Thy name I love;
1 love thy rocks and rills.
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills,
Like that above.

And ring ft-om all the trees
Sweet freedom's song;
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break—
The sound prolong.

Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing:
Long may our land be bright
"With freedom's holy light;
Protect us by Thy might.

In the ark the weary dove.— Tune p. 82, 2d.
1 In the ark the weary dove
Found a welcome resting-place;
Thus my spirit longs to prove
Rest in Christ, the Ark of grace:
2 Tempest-tossed I long have been,
And the flood increases fast;
Open, Lord, and take me In,
Till the storm be overpast !
From every stormy wind. — Tune p. 106, 2d.
1 From every stormy wind that blows.
From every swelling tide of woes,
There is a calm, a sure retreat;
'Tis found beneath the mercy-seat.
2 There is a place where Jesus sheds
The oil of gladness on our heads, —
A place, than all besides more sweet;
It is the blood-bought mercy-seat.
3 There is a seat where spirits blend,
Where friend holds fellowship with friend;
Though sundered far, by faith they meet
Around one common mercy-seat 1
4 There, there, on eagle wings we soar,
And sense and sin molest no more.
And heaven comes down our souls to greet,
And glory'crowns the mercy-seat 1
How sweet, how heavenly. — Tune p. 93 £ 119.
1 How sweet, how heavenly is the sight,
When those who love the Lord,
In one another's peace delight,
And so fulfill His word !
2 "When each can feel his brother's sigh,
And with him bear a part !
"When sorrow flows Irom eye to eye,
And joy from heart to heart!
3 When, free from envy, scorn, and pride,
Our wishes all above,
Each can his brother's failings hide,
And show a brother's love !
4 Let love, in one delightful stream,
Through every bosom flow.
And union sweet, and dear este'em
In every action glow.
5 Love is the golden chain that binds
The happy souls above:
And he's an heir of heaven who finds
His bosom glow with love.
Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah. — Tune page 99.
1 Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah,
Pilgrim through this barren land:
I am weak, but Thou art mighty.
Hold me with Thy powerful hand;
II: Bread of heaven, :|l Feed me till I want no
more.

Whence the healing waters flow;
Let the fiery cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through:
ll:Strong Deliverer, :|| Be Thou still my strength
and shield.

Bid the swelling stream divide:
Death of death, and hell's destruction.

Father, how wide Tliy glory.— Tune p. 39 (£ 78.
1 Fath?:k, how wide Thy glory shines !
How high Thy wonders rise !
Known through the earth by thousand signs,
By thousand through the skies.
Thiise mighty orbs proclaim Thy power;
Their motions speak Tliy skill;
And on the wings of every hour
We read Thy patience still.
HYMNS,
135
2 But when we view Thy strange design
To save rebellious worms,
Where vengeance and compassion join
lu their divinest lorms,—
Oui- thoughts are lost in reverent awe;
We love, and we adore:
The tirst archangel never saw
So much of God before.
3 Here the whole Deity is known;
Nor dares a creature guess
Which of the glories brightest shone,
The justice, or the grace.
0 may I bear some humble part
In lieav'n's immortal song:
Wonder and joy shall tune my heart,
And love command my tongue.
Ofor a thousand tongues to sing.— Tune p. 40 & 111.
1 o FOR a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer's praise,—
The'glories of my God and Iving,
The triumph of His grace 1
2 My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim.—
To spread through all the earth abroad.
The honors of Thy name.
3 Jesus ! the name that calms our fears,
That bids our sorrows cease;
'Tis music in the sinner's ears;
'Tis life, and health, and peace.
4 He breaks the power of reigning sin;
He sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean;
His blood availed for me.
My soul, repeat His praise.— Tune page 76.
1 My soul, repeat His praise,
Whose mercies are so great;
Whose anger is so slow to rise,
So ready to abate.
2 High as the heavens are raised
Above the ground we tread,
So far the riches of His grace
Our highest thoughts exceed.
3 His power subdues our sins,
And His forgiving love.
Far as the east is from the west,
Doth all our guilt remove.
4 The pity of the Lord,
To those who fear His name,
Is such as tender parents feel;
He knows our feeble frame.
5 Our days are as the grass.
Or like the morning flower;
If one sharp blast sweep o'er the field,
It withers in an hour.
6 But Thy compassions, Lord,
To endless vears endure;
And children's children ever find
Thy words of promise sure.
The heavens declare Tliy glory, Lord.— Tune p. 57.
1 THE heavens declare Thy glory, Lord;
In every star Thy wisdom shines;
But when our eyes behold Thy word.
We read Thy name in fairer lines.
2 The rolling sun, the changing light.
And nights and days Thy power confess;
Bui the blest volume Thou hast writ
Reveals Thy justice, and Thy grace.
3 Sun, moon and stars convey Thy praise
Round the whole earth, and never stand:
So, when Thy truth began its race,
It touched and glanced on every land.
4 Nor shall Thy spreading gospel rest.
Till through tlie world Tljy truth has run.
Till Christ has all the nations blest.
That see the light, or feel the sun.
Come, let us join.— Tune p. 42 <£■ 70.
1 Come, let us join our cheerful songs
With angels round the throne;
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
But all their joys are one.
2 'Worthy the Laml) that died,' they cry,
'To be exalted thus:'
'Worthy the Lamb,' our lips reply,
' For He was slain for us.'
3 Jesus is worthy to receive
Honor and power divine;
And blessings more than we can give
Be, Lord, for ever Thine.
4 Let an that dwell above the sky.
And air. and earth, and seas.
Conspire to lift Thy glories high,
And speak Thine endless praise.
5 The whole creation join in one,
To bless the sacred name
Of Him tbat sits upon the throne,
And to adore the Lamb.
Hark .' the song of Jubilee.— Tune page 117.
1 Haek ! the song of Jubilee;
Loud as mighty thunders roar.
Or the fullness of the sea,
When it breaks upon the shore:
Hallelujah ! for the Lord
God omnipotent shall reign;
Hallelujah I let the word
Echo'iound the earth and main.
2 Hallelujah !— hark ! the sound,
From the center to the skies.
Wakes above, beneatli, around,
All creation's harmonies:
See Jehovah's banners furled.
Sheathed his sword: he speaks— 'tis done,
And the kingdoms of this world
Are the kingdoms of His Son.
3 He shall reign from pole to pole
With illimitable sway;
He shall reign, when like a scroll
Yonder heavens have passed away:
Then the end;— beneath His rod,
Man's last enemy shall fall;
Hallelujah ! Christ in God,
God in Christ is all in all.
One there is, above all others.— Tune p. 97 <£-112.
1 One there is, above all others,
Well deserves the name of Friend;
His is love beyond a brother's.
Costly, free, and knows no end.

Which of all our fWends, to save us,
Could or would have shed Ilis blood ?
But our Jesus died to have us
Reconciled in Him to God.

Friend of sinners was His name;
Now above all glory raised,
He rejoices in t he «ame.

What a Friend we have above.

2 Teach me some melodious measure,
Sung by raptured saints above;
Fill my soul with sacred pleasure.
While I sing redeeming love.
3 Thou didst seek me when a stranger.
Wandering from the fold of God;
Thou, to save my soul from danger.
Didst redeem me with Thy blood.
4 By Thy hand restored, defended,
Safe through life, thus far, I'm come;
And, O Lord, when life is ended.
Bring me to my heavenly home.

1 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,
With all Thy quickening powers,
Kindle a flame of sacred love
In these cold hearts of ours.
2 Look how we grovel here below,
Fond of these trifling toys;
Our souls can neither fly, nor go,
To reach eternal joys.
3 Dear Lord ! and shall we ever live
At this poor dying rate ?
Our love so laint, so cold to Thee,
And Thine to us so great ?
4 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,
With all Thy quickening powers;
Come, shed abroad a Saviour's love,
And that shall kindle ours.

1 From Greenland's icy mountains,
From lndia".s coral strand.
Where Afvlc's sunny fountains
Roll down their gulden sand;
From many an aucient river,
From many a palmy plain,
They call us to deliver
Their land from error's chain.
2 Wtiat though the spicy breezes
Blow soft o'er Ceylon's isle.
Though every prospect pleases.
And only man is vile:
In vain with lavish kindness
The gilts of God are strown;
The heathen, in his blindness.
Bows down to wood and stone I
3 Shall we, whose souls are lighted
With wisdom from on high.
Shall we to men benighted
The lamp of life deny ?
Salvation, O Salvation 1
The joyful sound proclaim.
Till each remotest nation
Has learned Messiah's name.
4 Waft, -ivaft, ye winds His story.
And you, ye waters, roll.
Till, like a sea of glory.
It spreads from pole to pole;
Till o'er our ransomed nature
The Lamb for sinners slain.
Redeemer, King, Creator,

1 The morning light is breaking.
The darkness disappears:
The sons of earth are wakiiig
To penitential tears.
Each breeze that sweeps the ocean
Brings tidings from afar
Of nations in commotion.
Prepared for Zion's war.
2 Rich dews of grace come o'er us
In many a gentle shower;
And brighter scenes before us
Are opening every hour;
Each cr.y to heaven going
Abundant answer brings;
And heavenly gales are blowing,
With peace upon their wings.
3 See heathen nations bending
Before the God we love.
And thousand hearts ascending
In gratitude above;
While sinnei-s, now confessing,
The gospel call obey.
And seek the Saviour's blessing —
A nation in a day.

The love and compassion of Jesus, thy God ?
A fountain is opened — how canst thou refuse
To wash, and be cleansed in His pardoning
blood?
3 Delay not, delay not; 0 sinner, to come,
For mercy still lingers and calls thee to-day;
Her voice is not heard in the vale of the tomb,
Her message, unheeded, will soon pass a-
way.
4 Delay not, delay not; the Spirit of grace,
Long grieved and resisted, may take its
sad flight;
And leave thee in darkness to finish thy race.
To sink in the gloom of eternity's night.
37ms far the Lord. — Tune x^tge iO cC CO.
1 Thus far the Lord has led me on;
Thus far His po ,, cr prolongs my days;
And every evening shall make known
Some fresh memorial of His grace.
2 Much of my time has run to waste.
And I. perhaps, am near my home;
But He forgives my follies past.
He gives me strength for days to come.
3 I lay my body down to sleep;
Peace is the pillow for my head;
While well-appointed angels keep
Their watchful stations round my bed.
4 Thus, when the night of death shall come.
My flesh shall rest beneath the ground.
And wait Thy voice to rouse my tomb,
With sweet salvation iu the sound.
Saviour, breathe an. — Tune page 84, 91 <£ 119.
1 Saviour ! breathe an evening blessing,
Ere repose our eyelids seal:
Sin and want we come confessing;
Thou canst save, and Thou canst heal.
2 Though destruction walk around us.
Though the arrows past us fly,
Angel-guards from Thee surround us;
We are safe, if Thou art nigh.
3 Though the night be dark and dreary,
Darkness cannot liitle from Thee:
Thou art He who, never weary,
Watcheth where Thy people be.
4 Should swift death this night o'ertake us,
And our couch become our tomb.
May the morn in heaven awake us,
Clad in bright and deathless bloom.

To the highlands of heavea?
Where the storms never blow,
And the long summer's given;
Where the bright blooming flowers

And the leaves of the bowers,
In the breezes are flitting.

Cleansed in life's flowing fountain;
Shining beauteous and bright,
They inhabit the mountain.
Where no sin, nor dismay,
Neither trouble, nor sorrow,
Will be felt for a day.
Nor be feared for the morrow.

Sinner canst thou believe it?
And invites thee to come.

The force of truth, the pow'r of love.

May pray, "On earth Thy will be done:''
Thus may the prayer of faith arise,
Like greatful incense to the skies.

And when he speaks the words of Thine,
May sinners hear; iu Christ believe.

While Jordan rolled between.

To cross this narrow sea;
And linger, shivering on the brink,
Aud fear to launch away.

And see the Canaan that we love,
With unbeclouded eyes: —

And view the landscape o'er. —

Should fright us from the shore.

But one alone, the Saviour speaks—
It is the Star of Bethlehem I
2 Once on the raging seas I rode;
The storm was loud, the night was dark;
The ocean yawned, and rudely blowed
The wind that tossed my foundering bark.
Deep horror then my vitals froze;
Death-struck, 1 ceased the tide to stem;
When suddenly a star arose —
It was the Star of Bethlehem !
8 It was my guide, my light, my all;
It bade my dark foreljodinsrs cease;
And through the storm and danger's thrall,
It led me to the port of peace.
Now safely moored, my perils o'er,
I'll sing, first in niglit's diadem,

2 In life's desert when I faint.
Weary with the load I bear,
O, Thou strength of every saint.
Put Thine arms around me there;
W^hile its burning wastes I tread,
Lift Thy banner o'er my head.
3 When in sorrow's vale I sigh.
Crushed beneatli a stress of grief.
Solace of my soul, be nigh;
Only Thou can'st bring relief:
Not a tear I shed in vain.
If Thy pity soothes my pain I
4 When up narrow steeps I pant.
Wounded by the flint and thorn,
Then Tliy helping hand I want,
Or my heart will sink, forlorn;
Leaning on its strength, I'll climb
Up to Pisgah's top sublime.
5 Deserts, vales, and hills o'er-past.
At the grave my course will end.
More then ever at tlie last
I shall need Thee, Heavenly Friend—
My last foe to overcome.
And in love to lead me home.

And to the weary, rest.
