PREFACE
THE Hymnal was published in October, 1895, with a preface set-
ting forth the principles which governed its preparation. The
present edition marks no departure from these principles, and no change
in the general character of the book. It has been prepared with
a twofold aim.
First : to make a thorough revision of the materials in the light of
sixteen years practical use of the book. Hymns and tunes failing to
establish themselves in popular favor have been removed. Many
tunes have been set in lower keys or modified in harmony, in the interests
of congregational singing. In these matters the Committee has been
fortunate in having the sympathetic cooperation of the Musical Editor.
The text of the hymns has been minutely scrutinized from the point of
view of accuracy, of rhythm, and of a sincere worship: the text of the
Psalter continues to be that of the standard of the American Bible So-
ciety. The arrangement of the main body of hymns under the subjects
of the Apostles' Creed has been more completely carried out, with a
view to assist the memory in locating hymns; and the system of cross
references has been extended. The notes upon the history of hymns
and tunes have been carefully restudied and revised.
Second : to bring the book abreast of the latest developments of
hyninody, and of the present state of Christian thought and feeling ;
especially to meet the demand for the recognition of God's nearness
to every-day living, the coming of the kingdom in the sphere of common
life, the spirit of brotherhood and of manly and resolute Christian life and
service, social betterment, and evangelistic work. In the choice of new
tunes preference has been given to those whose acceptability has been
elsewhere tested in actual use; and some familiar tunes have been
restored.
For permission to use hymns that are new to this edition, the Com-
mittee is indebted to the Rev. Dr. Henry van Dyke for No. 115;

Note. As far as possible, the Hymns are here printed as their authors wrote them. All deviations from
the author's text are indicated in the note beneath the hymn. The date set to the hymn is the earliest date
obtainable, ordinarily that of its composition, in some cases necessarily that of first publication. Where two
dates are given, they indicate that of the original form of the hymn, and that of the author's revised text used in
this book. The word "publ." indicates that the date of writing is unknown, and that the date of publication is
posthumous. The letter c, (circa), before a date is used where exact certainty is unobtainable.
The names of the Tunes, unless for good reason to the contrary, are those authoritatively given them by the
composer or his representative. Tunes bearing identical names are distinguished by adding the composer's name
in brackets, e.g. Alleluia (Lowe), Alleluia (Wesley). The dates set to the tunes are the dates of first
publication.
Where dates, either of hymns or tunes, are altogether wanting, the date of the author1^ or composer's birth
and death are given in brackets, e.g. (1816-1893), or, where living, that of birth only, e.g. (1838-), or the
date of death, when that alone is known, e.g. (-1850).

"flnfcci of Ifiret Xtnce
A charge to keep I have
A few more years shall roll
" A mighty Fortress is our God
A parting hymn we sing
A thousand years have come and gone . .
A voice by Jordan's shore
Abide with me: East falls the eventide
According to Thy gracious word ....
Again, as evening's shadow falls ....
Alas! and did my Saviour bleed ....
All glory, laud, and honor
All hail the power of Jesus' Xame ....
All my heart this night rejoices
All people that on earth do dwell ....
All praise to Him who dwells in bliss . .
All praise to Thee, Eternal Lord ....
All praise to Thee, my God, this night . .
Alleluia! Alleluia! Hearts to heaven . .
Alleluia! sing to Jesus
Alleluia, song of sweetness
Alleluia! The strife is o'er
Almighty God, Thy word is cast ....
Am I a soldier of the cross
Ancient of Days, who sittest throned in
And is the time approaching
And now the sun's declining rays ....
And now the wants are told that brought
Angel voices, ever singing
Angels, from the realms of glory ....
Angels, roll the rock away
Another six days' work is done
Approach, my soul, the mercy-seat . . .
Arise, O King of grace, arise
Around the throne of God
Around the throne of God in heaven . .
Art thou weary, art thou languid ....
As pants the hart for cooling streams . .
As the sun doth daily rise
As with gladness men of old
Asleep in Jesus! blessed sleep
At even, when the sun was set
At the Lamb's high feast we sing ....
At the Xame of Jesus
At Thy feet, our God and Father ....
Awake, and sing the song
Awake, my soul, and with the sun . . .
Awake, my soul, in joyful lays
Awake, my soul, stretch every nerve . .

Brief Statement of tbe IReformeb jfaitb
ADOPTED, MAY 22, 1902, BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE PRESBY-
TERIAN CHURCH IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Article I. Of God.
We believe in the ever-living God, who is a
Spirit and the Father of our spirits ; infinite, eter-
nal, and unchangeable in His being and perfec-
tions ; the Lord Almighty, most just in all His
ways, most glorious in holiness, unsearchable in
wisdom and plenteous in mercy, full of love and
compassion, and abundant in goodness and truth.
We worship Him, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
three persons in one Godhead, one in substance
and equal in power and glory.
Article II. Of Revelation.
We believe that God is revealed in nature, in
history, and in the heart of man ; that He has
made gracious and clearer revelations of Him-
self to Men of God who spoke as they were
moved by the Holy Spirit ; and that Jesus Christ,
the Word made flesh, is the brightness of the
Father's glory and the express image of His per-
son. We gratefully receive the Holy Scriptures,
given by inspiration, to be the faithful record of
God's gracious revelations and the sure witness
to Christ, as the Word of God, the only infallible
rule of faith and life.
Article III. Of the Eternal Purpose.
We believe that the eternal, wise, holy, and
loving purpose of God embraces all events, so
that while the freedom of man is not taken away
nor is God the author of sin, yet in His provi-
dence He makes all things work together in the
fulfillment of His sovereign design and the mani-
festation of His glory ; wherefore, humbly ac-
knowledging the mystery of this truth, we trust
in His protecting care and set our hearts to do
His will.
Article IV. Of the Creation.
We believe that God is the creator, upholder,
and governor of all things ; that He is above all
His works and in them all ; and that He made
man in His own image, meet for fellowship with
Him, free and able to choose between good
and evil, and forever responsible to his Maker
and Lord.
Article V. Of the Sin of Man.
We believe that our first parents, being
tempted, chose evil, and so fell away from God
and came under the power of sin, the penalty of
which is eternal death ; and we confess that, by
reason of this disobedience, we and all men are
born with a sinful nature, that we have broken
God's law, and that no man can be saved but by
His grace.
Article VI. Of the Grace of God.
We believe that God, out of His great love
for the world, has given His only begotten
Son to be the Saviour of sinners, and in the
Gospel freely offers His all-sufficient salvation to
all men. And we praise Him for the unspeak-
able grace wherein He has provided a way of
eternal life for all mankind.
Article VII. Of Election.
We believe that God, from the beginning, in
His own good pleasure, gave to His Son a peo-
ple, an innumerable multitude, chosen in Christ
unto holiness, service, and salvation ; we believe
that all who come to years of discretion can re-
ceive this salvation only through faith and repent-
ance ; and we believe that all who die in infancy,
and all others given by the Father to the Son
who are beyond the reach of the outward means
of grace, are regenerated and saved by Christ
through the Spirit, who works when and where
and how He pleases.
Article VIII. Of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe in and confess the Lord Jesus
Christ, the only Mediator between God and man,
who, being the Eternal Son of God, for us men
and for our salvation became truly man, being
conceived by the Holy Ghost and born of the
Virgin Mary, without sin ; unto us He has re-
vealed the Father, by His Word and Spirit mak-
ing known the perfect will of God ; for us He
fulfilled all righteousness and satisfied eternal
justice, offering Himself a perfect sacrifice upon
the cross to take away the sin of the world ; for
us He rose from the dead and ascended into
heaven, where He ever intercedes for us ; in our
hearts, joined to Him by faith, He abides for-
ever as the indwelling Christ ; over us, and over
all for us, He rules : wherefore, unto Him we
render love, obedience, and adoration as our
Prophet, Priest, and King for ever.
Article IX. Of Faith and Repentance.
We believe that God pardons our sins and
accepts us as righteous solely on the ground of
the perfect obedience and sacrifice of Christ re-
ceived by faith alone ; and that this saving faith
is always accompanied by repentance, wherein
we confess and forsake our sins with full purpose
of, and endeavor after, a new obedience to God.
Brief Statement oC the Uirormcrj JTaiti)
Article X. Of the Holy Spirit.
We believe in the Holy spirit, the Lord and
Giver «>i Life, who n where apon the
hearts of men, lo restrain ihena from evil tnd to
incite them unto good, ind whom the Father u
ever willing to give unto all who ask Him. \\<-
believe that IK- baa moken by holy Men of God
in making known His truth to men for the I
ration; that, through our exalted Saviour, He
was tent forth in power to convict tin- world of
sin, to enlighten men's minds in tin- tenon
of Christ, ami to persuade and enable them t<>
obey the call of the Gospel ; and that He abides
with the Church, dwelling in every believi
the spirit of truth, of holiness, and of comfort
Article XI
Of the New Birth and the
New Life.
We l>elieve that the Holy Spirit only is the
author and Bonrce of the new birth ; we rejoice
in the new life, wherein He is given unto US as
the seal oi sonship in Christ, and keeps loving
fellowship with us, helps us in our infirmities,
purges us from our faults, and ever continues 1 lis
transforming work in us until we are perfected in
the likeness of Christ, in the glory of the life to
come.
Article XII. Of the Resurrection and
the Life to Come.
We believe that in the life to come the spirits
of the just, at death made free from sin, enjoy
immediate- communion with God and the vision
of His glory; and we confidently look for the
general resurrection in the last day, when the
Ixxlies of those who sleep in Christ shall be fash-
ioned in the likeness of the glorious body of their
Lord, with whom they shall live and reign for
Article XIII. Of the Law of God.
We believe that the law of God, revealed in
the Ten Commandments, and more clearlv dis-
closed in the words of Christ, is forever established
in truth and equity, so that no human work shall
abide except it be built on this foundation. We
believe that God requires of every man to do
justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with
his God; and that only through this harmony
with the will of Cod shall be fulfilled that brother-
hood of man wherein the kingdom of God is to
be made manifest.
Article XIV. Of the Church and the
Sacraments
\\ <• believe in tie- Holj i
which Christ i- the onlj Hi We believi
tin- ( hutch I n\ i-il>le COnsistl oi all th- :
and that the ( hunh Visil who
profess the true religion together with their chil-
dren. We receive i" our communion all who
confess and obey ' hrist a- thru divine Lord and
Saviour, and we hold fellowship with all bel
in I I un.
We receive the Sai raments of Baptism and the
Lord's Supper, alone divinely established and
committed to the Church, together with the Word,
■S mean- of grace; B tual only by the
Holy Spirit, and always to be used l>\ < oris!
with prayer and praise to I
Article XV. Of the Last Judgment.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ wfl]
come again in glorious majesty to judge the world
and to make a final separation between the right-
eon- and the wicked. The wicked shall i
the eternal award of their sins, and the Lord
will manifest the glory of His mercy in the >al-
vation of His people and their entrance upon the
full enjoyment of eternal life.
Article XVI. Of Christian Service and
the Final Triumph.
We believe that it is OUT duty, a- servants and
friends of Christ, to do good unto all men, to
maintain the public and private worship of («.h\,
to hallow the Lord's Hay, to preserve the sanctity
of the family, to uphold the just authority oi the
State, and SO to live in all honesty, purity, and
charity, that our lives shall testify of Christ We
joyfully receive the word of Christ, bidding His
people go into all the world and make disciples
of all nation-, and declare unto them mat God
was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself,
and that He will have all men to be saved ami to
come to the knowledge of the truth. We con-
fidently trust that by His power an
His enemies and our- shall be finally overcome,
and the kingdom- o\ this world shall be made
the kingdom of our ^>y^\ and of His Christ In
this faith we abide ; in this service we laboi ; and
in this hope we pray, Even so, come, Lord
lesus.

OUR FATHER which art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name; Thy king-
dom come ; Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven ; give us this day our
daily bread j and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors ; and lead
us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil; for thine is the kingdom,
AND THE POWER, AND THE GLORY, FOR EVER. AMEN.
€fje €en €omman&ment£
GOD spake all these words, saying, I am the Lord thy God, which have brought
thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
I. Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.
II. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing
that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under
the earth : thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them : for I the Lord
thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto
the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me ; and showing mercy unto
thousands of them that love Me, and keep My commandments.
III. Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord
will not hold him guiltless that taketh His Name in vain.
IV. Remember the Sabbath-day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and
do all thy work : but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God ; in it thou
shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy

the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the
seventh day : wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath-day, and hallowed it.
V. Honor thy father and thy mother : that thy days may be long upon the land

thing that is thy neighbor's.
HEAR also the words of our Lord Jesus, how He saith : Thou shalt love the
Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This
is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it : Thou shalt
love thy neighbor as thyself. On , these two commandments hang all the law and

I BELIEVE in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth :
And in Jesus Christ His only Son our Lord ; who was conceived by the Holy
Ghost ; born of the Virgin Mary ; suffered under Pontius Pilate ; was crucified,

dead ; He ascended into heaven ; and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father
Almighty ; from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

Restored to life and power and thought. God will provide for sacrifice.
New mercies, each returning day, 4 The trivial round, the common task.
Hover around us while we pray; Will furnish all we ought to ask;
New perils past, new sins forgiven, Room to deny ourselves, a road

Have spurned to-day the voice Divine,

Be every mourner's sleep to-night,

2 Forgive me, Lord, for Thy dear Son, 4 O may my soul on Thee repose,
The ill that I this day have done; And with sweet sleep mine eyelid- abse;
That with the world, myself, and Thee, Sleep that may me more vigorous make
I, ere I sleep, at peace may be.
To serve my God when I awake.
3 Teach me to live, that I may dread
The grave as little as my bed;
Teach me to die, that so I may
Rise glorious at the awful day.
5 When in the night I sleepless lie.
My soul with heavenly thoughts supply;
Let no ill dreams disturb my rest,
No powers of darkness me molest

For ever chase dark sleep away,
And hymns with the supernal choir
Incessant sing, and never tire! V~X"

Before we sleep bow down Thine ear: What dawning risen upon the night !
Through dark and day, o'er land and sea, Thou giv'st Thyself to US, and we
We have no other hope but Thee.
Find guide and path and all in Thee
4 Through day and darkness, Saviour dear,
Abide with us. more nearly near;
Till on Thy face we lift our eyes,
The Sun of God's own Paradise,
1 Oft from Thy royal road we part,
Lost in the mazes of the heart:
Our lamps put out. our course forgot,

5 Praise God, our Maker and our Friend;
Fraise Him through time, till time shall end;
Till psalm and sons: His Name adore
Through heaven's great day of evermore.

2 Once more 'tis eventide, and we,
Oppressed with various ills, draw near:
What if Thy form we cannot see;
We know and feel that Thou art here.
3 O 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 ;
4 And none, O 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.
5 O 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.
6 Thy touch has still its ancient power;
No word from Thee can fruitless fall:
Hear in this solemn evening hour,
And in Thy mercy heal us all.

Hi
Look on Thy chil - dren from on high, And hear us while we pray. A - men.
2 The sorrows of Thy servants, Lord,
O do not Thou despise,
But let the incense of our prayers
Before Thy mercy rise.
The brightness of the coming night
Upon the darkness rolls;
With hopes of future glory chase
The shadows from our souls.
3 Slowly the rays of daylight fade;
So fade within our heart
The hopes in earthly love and joy
That one by one depart.
Slowly the bright stars, one by one,
Within the heavens shine;
Give us, O Lord, fresh hopes in heaven, A
And trust in things Divine.
4 Let peace, O 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 labor, Lord,
O give us now repose. v ..'■_.'.

Around the throne on high,
Where night can never be,

Bring ceaseless hymns to Thee.

Too soon of praise we tire:
But O the strains, how full and clear,

Yet, Lord, to Thy dear will
If Thou attune the heart,

Gather us who seek Thy face
To the fold of Thy embrace,
For Thou art nigh. — Holy, etc.

Through the glory and the grace
Of the stars that veil Thy lace.

Pass the stars, the day. the night,

Let eternal morning rise,

2 How sweetly rest Thy saints above
Whieh in Thy bosom lie;
The Church below doth rest in hope
Of that felicity.
3 Thou, Lord, who daily feed'st Thy sheep,
Mak'st them a weekly feast;
Thy flocks meet in their several folds
Upon this day of rest.
4 Welcome and dear unto my soul
Are these sweet feasts of love;
But what a Sabbath shall I keep
When I shall rest above!
5 I bless Thy wise and wondrous love,
Which binds us to be free;
Which makes us leave our earthly snares,
That we may come to Thee.
6 I come, I wait, I hear, I pray,
Thy footsteps, Lord, I trace;
I sing to think this is the way
Unto my Saviour's face.

Whose mercies flow each day the same, From every mortal trouble free;
Whose kind compassions never cease, No sighs shall mingle with the songs
We seek instruction, pardon, peace. Resounding from immortal tongues;
3 Thy day of rest, O Lord, we love,
But look for truer rest above;
To that our laboring souls aspire
With ardent hope and strong desire.
5 No rude alarms of raging foes;
No cares to break the long repose;
No midnight shade, no waning moon,
But sacred, high, eternal noon.

Dawn, on these realms of woe and sin!
Break, morn of God, upon our eyes;
And let the world's true Sun arise! ;..' •, c-t ^ £\

1 Sweet is the work, my God, my King,
To praise Thy Name, give thanks and
sing;
To show Thy love by morning light,
And talk of all Thy truth at night.
2 Sweet is the day of sacred rest;
No mortal cares shall seize my breast;
O may my heart in tune be found,
Like David's harp of solemn sound.
3 My heart shall triumph in my Lord,
And bless His works, and bless His
word;
Thy works of grace, how bright they
shine !
How deep Thy counsels, how Divine!
4 But I shall share a glorious part
When grace hath well refined my heart,
And fresh supplies of joy are shed,
Like holy oil to cheer my head.
5 Then shall I see and hear and know
All I desired or wished below;
And every power find sweet employ
In that eternal world of joy.

So sweet a rest to wearied minds. Is the dear pledge of glorious rest
Provides an antepast of heaven, Which for the Church of God remains,
And gives this day the food of seven. The end of cares, the end of pains.

As grateful incense, to the skies; In holy pleasures, pass away:
And draw from heaven that sweet repose How sweet a Sabbath thus to spend.
Which none but he that feels it knows. In hope of one that ne'er shall end.

2 Happy birds that sing and fly
Round Thy altars, O Most High!
Happier souls that find a rest
In a heavenly Father's breast!
Like the wandering dove, that found
No repose on earth around, 4
They can to their ark repair,
And enjoy it ever there.
3 Happy souls ! their praises flow
Even in this vale of woe;
Waters in the desert rise,
Manna feeds them from the skies:
On they go from strength to strength,
Till they reach Thy throne at length;
At Thy feet adoring fall,
Who hast led them safe through all.
Lord, be mine this prize to win;
Guide me through a world of sin; '. .« : ''..
Keep me by Thy saving grace; r ' '^^J:^T
Give me at Thy side a place.
Sun and Shield alike Thou art;
Guide and guard my erring heart:
Grace and glory flow from Thee;
Shower, O shower them, Lord, on me.

And no good thing will He withhold
From them that justly live.

Who long to tread the sacred ways Whose hope and trust, securely placed,

2 Ye blessed souls at rest,
Who ran this earthly race,
And now, from sin released,
Behold your Saviour's face,
God's praises sound, as in His light
With sweet delight ye do abound.
3 Ye saints who toil below.
Adore your heavenly King,
And onward as ye go
Some joyful anthem sing;
Take what He gives, and praise Him stil
Through good and ill. who ever lives.
4 My soul, bear thou thy part.
Triumph in God above,
And with a well-tuned heart
Sing thou the songs of love:
Let all thy days till life shall end,
Whate'er He send, be idled with praise.

My feet shall visit Thine abode.
My songs address Thy throne.
2 How much is mercy Thy delight.
Thou ever-blessed God!
How dear Thy servants in Thy sight
How precious is their blood!
How happy all Thy servants are!
How great Thy grace to mel
My life, which Thou hast made Thy care.
Lord, 1 devote to Thee.
Here in Thy courts I leave my vow,
And Thy rich grace record;
Witness, ye saints who hear me now,
It I forsake the Lord.

2 Show us, Lord, the goal of life,
And give us heart to run;
Breathe the peace that follows strife,
Lest future work we shun:
Hearts that hasty time has grieved
Are by Sabbath calm relieved.
3 We would sing as in the rays
Of mercy ever bright,
Which endureth, to Thy praise,
For ever Thy delight :
Sing for happiness we know,
Or that we may happy grow.
We would pray as those who stand
Their truest Friend beside,
Whom He takes as by the hand,
Unto their God to guide;
By His power, and for His sake,
Fully us Thy children mak<

And Thou hast taken count of all, Sweet fear, and sober liberty,
The scanty triumphs grace hath won, And loving hearts without alloy,
The broken vow, the frequent fall. That only long to be like Thee.
Through life's long day and death's Through life's long day and death's

O gentle Jesus, be our Light. O gentle Jesus, be our Light.

True absolution and release;
And bless us, more than in past days,

Veil their faces with their wings;
Eyes of angels are too dim

Earth takes up the angels' cry,

Bid we thus our anthem flow:

Our years are like the shadows
On sunny hills that lie,
Or grasses in the meadows
That blossom but to die;
A sleep, a dream, a story
By strangers quickly told,
An unremaining glory
Of things that soon are old.
On us Thy mercy lighten, Qj
On us Thy goodness rest,
And let Thy Spirit brighten
The hearts Thyself hast blessed.
O Thou who canst not slumber,
Whose light grows never pale,
Teach us aright to number
Our years before they fail;
Lord, crown our faith's endeavor
With beauty and with grace, Af.Q^'.r*.

Thou hast laid Thy Throne's foundation Glorious, beauteous without ending,
From all time where thought can soar. God who reigns on heaven's high steep.
Allrluia! Alleluia!
Lord, Thou art for evermore. Songs of ocean never sleep.
3 Lord, the water-floods have lifted, 5 Lord, the words Thy lips are telling
Ocean floods have lift their roar; Are the perfect verity:

Now they burst upon the shore. Holiness shall inmate be.

2 Their golden crowns they fling
Before His throne of light,
And strike the rapturous string,
Unceasing, day and night:
" Earth, heaven, and sea,
Thy praise declare;
For Thine they are,
And Thine shall be.
3 "O Holy, Holy Lord,
Creation's sovereign King!
Thy majesty adored
Let all creation sing;
Who wast, and art,
And art to be;
Nor time shall see
Thy sway depart.
4 " Great are Thy works of praise,
O God of boundless might;
All just and true Thy ways,
Thou King of saints, in light:
Let all above,
And all below,
Conspire to show
Thy power and love.
"Who shall not fear Thee, Lord,
And magnify Thy Name?
Thy judgments, sent abroad,
Thy holiness proclaim:
Nations shall throng
From every shore,
And all adore
In one loud song."
While thus the powers on high
Their swelling chorus raise,
Let earth and man reply,
And echo back the praise:
His glory own,
First, last, and best;
God ever blest,
And God alone.

2 He sends His showers of blessing down 4 His hoary frost, His fleecy snow,
To cheer the plains below; Descend and clothe the ground;
He makes the grass the mountains crown, The liquid streams forbear to flow,
And corn in valleys grow. In icy fetters bound.
3 His steady counsels change the face 5 He sends His word, and melts the snow;
Of the declining year; The fields no longer mourn;
He bids the sun cut short his race, He calls the warmer gales to blow,
And wintry days appear. And bids the spring return.
6 The changing wind, the flying cloud,
Obey His mighty word:
With songs and honors sounding loud
Praise ye the sovereign Lord.

And vexed with trilling cares;
While Thine eternal thought moves on

And penitential tears. And gMQiinrl ura se 00 Thee.

2 His sovereign power, without our aid, 4 We '11 crowd Thy gates with thankful
Made us of clay, and formed us men; songs,
And when like wandering sheep we High as the heavens our voices raise;
strayed, And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
He brought us to His fold again.
3 We are His people, we His care,
Our souls, and all our mortal frame;
What lasting honors shall we rear,
Almighty Maker, to Thy Name?
Shall fill Thy courts with sounding praise.
5 Wide as the world is Thy command,
Vast as eternity Thy love;
Firm as a rock Thy truth must stand,
When rolling years shall cease to move.

1 Come, sound His praise abroad,
And hymns of glory sing:
Jehovah is the sovereign God,
The universal King.
2 He formed the deeps unknown,
He gave the seas their bound;
The watery worlds are all His own
And all the solid ground.
3 Come, worship at His throne;
Come, bow before the Lord:
We are His works, and not our own;
He formed us by His Word.
4 To-day attend His voice,
Nor dare provoke His rod;
Come, like the people of His choice,
And own your gracious God.

Ere from my opening lips they break. Is in the boundless prospect lost.

1 Songs of praise the angels sang,
Heaven with alleluias rang,
When Jehovah's work begun,
When He spake, and it was done.
2 Songs of praise awoke the morn,
When the Prince of Peace was born:
Songs of praise arose, when He
Captive led captivity.
3 Heaven and earth must pass away,
Songs of praise shall crown that day:
God will make new heavens, new earth,
Songs of praise shall hail their birth.
4 And can man alone be dumb,
Till that glorious kingdom come?
No, the Church delights to raise
Psalms and hymns and songs of praise.
5 Saints below, with heart and voice,
Still in songs of praise rejoice,
Learning here, by faith and love,
Songs of praise to sing above.
6 Borne upon their latest breath,
Songs of praise shall conquer death;
Then, amidst eternal joy,
Songs of praise their powers employ.

This world of ours, and worlds unseen,
And thin the boundary between.
One Lord, one empire, all secures;

lxttt Rev. Henry F. Lyte, 1S34: verse 1, line 1. alt.
121 (WARE) L. M.
1 High in the heavens, Eternal God, 4 My God, how excellent Thy grace.
Thy goodness in full glory shines; Whence all our hope and comfort spring!
Thy truthshall break through every cloud The sons of Adam in distress
That veils and darkens Thy designs. Fly to the shadow oi Thy wing.
2 For ever firm Thy justice stands,
As mountains their foundations keep;
Wise are the wonders of Thy hands;
Thy judgments are a mighty deep.
5 From the provisions of Thy house
We shall be fed with sweet repast;
There mercy like a river flows,
And brings salvation to our taste.
3 Thy providence is kind and large, 6 Life, like a fountain, rich and free,
Both man and beast Thy bounty share; Springs from the presence of my Lord
The whole creation is Thy charge, And in Thy light our souls shall see
But saints are Thy peculiar care. The glories promised in Thy word.

Did we in our own strength confide,
Our striving would be losing;
Were not the right man on our side,
The man of God's own choosing:
Dost ask who that may be?
Christ Jesus, it is He;
Lord Sabaoth His Name, 4
From age to age the same,
And He must win the battle.
3 And though this world, with devils filled,
Should threaten to undo us;
We will not fear, for God hath willed
His truth to triumph through us :
Martin Luther.
The prince of darkness grim, —
We tremble not for him;
His rage we can endure,
For lo! his doom is sure,
One little word shall fell him.
That word above all earthly powers,
No thanks to them, abideth; ,'
The Spirit and the gifts are ours
Through Him who with us sideth:
Let goods and kindred go,
This mortal life also;
The body they may kill :
God's truth abideth still,
His kingdom is for ever.

In nature we Thy steps behold,

To receive a Name
From the lips of sinners
Unto whom He came,
Faithfully He bore it
Spotless to the last,
Brought it back victorious,
When from death He passed.
4 In your hearts enthrone Him;
There let Him subdue
All that is not holy,
All that is not true:
Crown Him as your Captain
In temptation's hour:
Let His will enfold you
In its light and power.

2 The highest place that heaven affords 4 To them the cross, with all its shame.
Is His, is His by right, With all its grace, is given;
The King of kings, and Lord of lords, Their name an everlasting name,
. And heaven's eternal Light : Their joy the joy of heaven.
3 The Joy of all who dwell above,
it . The Joy of all below
To whom He manifests His love,
And grants His Name to know.
5 They suffer with their Lord below,
They reign with Him above;
Their profit and their joy to know
The mystery of His love.
6 The cross He bore is life and health,
Though shame and death to Him;
His people's hope, His people's wealth,
Their everlasting theme. Rev. Thomas Kelly, 1820

The God of truth and love;
When He had purged our stains,
He took His seat above:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice:
• Rejoice, again I say, rejoice.
3 His kingdom cannot fail,
He rules o'er earth and heaven;
The keys of death and hell
144 (BELMONT) C. M.
1 O Jesus, King most wonderful,
Thou Conqueror renowned,
Thou Sweetness most ineffable,
In whom all joys are found!
2 When once Thou visitest the heart,
Then truth begins to shine,
Then earthly vanities depart,
Then kindles love Divine.
3 O Jesus, Light of all below.
Thou Fount of life and tire,
Are to our Jesus given:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice.
4 He sits at God's right hand
Till all His foes submit.
And bow to His command,
And fall beneath His feet:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice;
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice.

2 My gracious Master and my God, 4 He breaks the power of reigning sin,
Assist me to proclaim, He sets the prisoner free;
To spread through all the earth abroad, His blood can make the foulest clean,
The honors of Thy Name. His blood availed for me.
3 Jesus, the Name that charms our fears, 5 He speaks; and, listening to His voice,
That bids our sorrows cease; New life the dead receive;
'Tis music in the sinner's ears, The mournful, broken hearts rejoice;
Tis life, and health, and peace. The humble poor believe.

2 His love, what mortal thought can reach? 4 Jesus, who left His throne on high,
What mortal tongue display? Left the bright realms of bliss,
imagination's utmost stretch And came on earth to bleed and die
In wonder dies away. Was ever love like this?
3 Let wonder still with love unite,
And gratitude and joy;
Be Jesus our supreme delight,
His praise our best employ;
5 Dear Lord, while we adoring pay
Our humble thanks to Thee,
May every heart with rapture say,

2 God ruleth on high, almighty to save;
And still He is nigh — His presence we have:
The great congregation His triumph shall sing,
Ascribing salvation to Jesus, our King.
3 Salvation to God who sits on the throne!
Let all cry aloud and honor the Son:
The praises of Jesus the angels proclaim,
Fall down on their faces and worship the Lamb.
4 Then let us adore, and give Him His right,
All glory and power, and wisdom and might,
All honor and blessing, with angels above.
And thanks never ceasing, and infinite love.
Rev. Charles Wesley, i;n: verse 3, line $, alt.

1 'Tis for conquering kings to gain
Glory o'er their myriads slain:
Jesus, Thy more glorious strife
Hath restored a world to life.
2 So no other Name is given
Unto mortals under heaven
Which can make the dead to rise,
And exalt them to the skies.
3 That which Christ so hardly wrought,
That which He SO dearly bought,
That salvation, mortals, say,
Will you madly cast away?
4 Rather gladly for that Name
Bear the CTOSS, endure the shame;
Joyfully for Him to die
Is not death, but victory.
5 Dost Thou. Jesus, condescend
To be called the sinner's Friend?
Ours, then, it shall always be
Thus to make our boast of Thee. } -&A6

2 Still through the cloven skies they come,
With peaceful wings unfurled,
And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world:
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing, 4
And ever o'er its Babel-sounds
The blessed angels sing.
3 And ye, beneath life's crushing load,
Whose forms are bending low,
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow, —
"'
Look now ! for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing:
O rest beside the weary road,
And hear the angels sing.
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
Its ancient splendors fling,
And the whole world give back the song
Which now the angels sing.

2 Then to the watchful shepherds it was told, n
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."
3 He spake: and straightway the celestial choir
In hymns of joy, unknown before, conspire;
The praises of redeeming love they sang,
And heaven's whole orb with alleluias rang:
God's highest glory was their anthem still,
Peace upon earth, and mutual good will.

Treading His steps, assisted by His ^rr
Till man's first heavenly state again takes plate

Around us all His glory shall display;

Then angels on their starry way
Felt bliss unfelt before,
For news that men should be as they,
To darkened earth they bore;
So toiling men and spirits bright
A first communion had. 4
And in meek mercy's rising light
Were each exceeding glad.
3 And we are glad, and we will sing,
As in the days of yore;
Come all, and hearts made ready bring,
To welcome back once more
The day when first on wintry earth
A summer change began.
And, dawning in a lowly birth,
Uprose the Light of man. '• : : 2.0 -
For trouble such as men must bear
From childhood to fourscore.

A Virgin's arms contain Thee now:
Angels who did in Thee rejoice
Now listen for Thine infant voice.

For this we tune our cheerful lays,

At that manger rude and bare;
So may we with holy joy,
Pure, and free from sin's alloy ,&,
All our costliest treasures bring,

Holy Jesus, every day
Keep us in the narrow way;
And. when earthly things are past,
Bring our ransomed souls at last
Where they need no Star to guide,
Where DO clouds Thy glory hide.

2 Cold on His cradle the dewdrops are shining;
Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall:
Angels adore Him in slumber reclining,
Maker and Monarch and Saviour of all.
3 Say, shall we yield Him, in costly devotion,
Odors of Edom and offerings Divine,
Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,
Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine? JAX^fc'lf-
4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation;
Vainly with gifts would His favor secure:
Richer by far is the heart's adoration;

2 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:
And now, O Lord, be near to bless,
Almighty as of yore,
In crowded street, by restless couch,
As by Gennesareth's shore.
3 Though Love and Might no longer heal
By touch, or word, or look;
Though they who do Thy work must
read
Thy laws in nature's book;
Yet come to heal the sick man's soul,
Come, cleanse the leprous taint;
Give joy and peace where all is strife,
And strength where all is faint.
4 Be Thou our great Deliverer still,
Thou Lord of life and death; «. . vu&f
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.

Why should we then our bliss delay?
Thou, Lord, e'en now art calling me;
I will leave all, and follow Thee. *-ZX.

Escaped Thy silent tongue.

Unwearied in forgiveness still,

Our daily cross to bear;
Like Thee, to do our Father's will
• Our brethren's griefs to share.
3 Let grace our selfishness expel,
Our earthliness refine;
And kindness in our bosoms dwell
As free and true as Thine.
4 If joy shall at Thy bidding fly,
And grief's dark day come on,
We, in our turn, would meekly cry,
" Father, Thy will be done."
5 Should friends misjudge, or foes defame,
Or brethren faithless prove,
Then, like Thine own, be all our aim
To conquer them by love.

1 O mean may seem this house of clay,
Yet 'twas the Lord's abode;
Our feet may mourn this thorny way,
Yet here Emmanuel trod.
2 This fleshly robe the Lord did wear,
This watch the Lord did keep,
These burdens sore the Lord did bear
^5* These tears the Lord did weep.
3 Our very frailty brings us near
IS* Unto the Lord of heaven;
To every grief, to every tear.
Such glory strange is given.
13
4 But not this fleshly robe alone
Shall link us, Lord, to Thee;
Not only in the tear and groan
Shall the dear kindred DC,
5 We shall be reckoned tor Thine own
Because Thy heaven we share,
Because we sing around Thy throne,
And Thy bright raiment wear.
6 O mighty graee, our life to live,
To make our earth Divine:
O mighty grace, Thy heaven to give,
And lift our life to Thine.

He groaned upon the tree!
Amazing pity! Grace unknown!
And love beyond degree !
4 Thus might I hide my blushing face
While His dear cross appears;
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
And melt my eyes to tears.
j 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, 5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay
And shut his glories in, The debt of love I owe;
When He, the mighty Maker, died Here, Lord, I give myself away,

1 O Thou, the Eternal Son of God, 3 Thou Great High Priest,Thy glory-robes'
The Lamb for sinners slain, \ * . To-day are laid aside;
We worship, while Thy head is bowecl And human sorrows, Son of Man,
In agony and pain. Thy Godhead seem to hide.
2 None tread with Thee the holy place ; 4 The cross is sharp, but in Thy woe
Thou sufferest alone; This is the lightest part;
Thine is the perfect sacrifice
Which only can atone.
Our sin it is which pierces Thee, f ta-WiTrJ
And breaks Thy sacred heart.
5 Who love Thee most, at Thy dear cross
Will truest, Lord, abide;
Make Thou that cross our only hope, / .

Of resurrection-light;
And, listening to His accents.
May hear, so calm and plain,

'Tis the spring of souls to-day:
Christ hath burst His prison,
And from three days' sleep in death
As a sun hath risen;
All the winter of our sins,
Long and dark, is flying ^
From His light, to whom we give
Laud and praise undying.
3 Now the Queen of seasons, bright
With the day of splendor,
With the royal feast of feasts,
Comes its joy to render;
John of Damascus
Comes to glad Jerusalem,
Who with true affection
Welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
Neither might the gates of death, JfcJb,.2
Nor the tomb's dark portal,
Nor the watchers, nor the seal,
Hold Thee as a mortal:
But to-day amidst the Twelve W»&
Thou didst stand, bestowing

To Thee and to Thy Christ, 0 God,
We sing, we ever sing;
For He invaded death's abode.
• And robbed him of his sting.
The house of dust enthralls no more,
For He, the Strong to save,
Himself doth guard that silent door,
Great Keeper of the grave.
To Thee and to Thy Christ, 0 God,
We sing, we ever sing;
For He hath crushed beneath His rod
The world's proud rebel king.
He plunged in His imperial strength
To gulfs of darkness down;
He brought His trophy up at length.
The foiled usurper's crown.
To Thee and to Thy Christ, 0 God,
We sing, we ever sing;
For He redeemed us with His blood
From every evil thing.
Thy saving strength His arm upbore.
The arm that set us free:
Glory, 0 dnl. for evermore
Be to Thy Christ and Thee.

1 I say to all men, far and near,
That He is risen again; '
That He is with us now and here,
And ever shall remain.
2 And what I say, let each this morn
Go tell it to his friend,
That soon in every place shall dawn
His kingdom without end.
3 Now first to souls who thus awake
Seems earth a fatherland :
A new and endless life they take
With rapture from His hand.
4 The fears of death and of the grave /
Are whelmed beneath the sea,
And every heart, now light and brave,
May face the things to be.
5 The way of darkness that He trod,
To heaven at last shall come,
And he who hearkens to His word,
Shall reach His Father's home.

He by death has spoiled His foes.

And poured on earth His precious blood, His tears, His agonies, and cries.

The Saviour and the Friend of man. 3 *5 ^wy pang that rends the heart
The Man of Sorrows had a part
3 Though now ascended up on high,
He bends on earth a brother's eye;
Partaker of the human name,
He knows the frailty of our frame.
He sympathizes with our grief,
And to the sufferer sends relief.

A fellow-feeling of our pains,

Let us make all our sorrows known,
And ask the aids of heavenly power
To help us in the evil hour.

And, fainting, I mistrust Thy grace,
Then, Saviour, plead for me.

Afar from Thine and wisdom's way,
And see no glimmering guiding ray,
Still, Saviour, plead for me.

1 Come, Lord, and tarry not ;
Bring the long-looked-for day;
O why these years of waiting here,
These ages of delay?
2 Come, for Thy saints still wait;
Daily ascends their sigh:
The Spirit and the Bride say, ''Come": Restore our faded Paradise,
Dost Thou not hear the cry? Creation- second birth.
3 Come, for creation groans,
Impatient of Thy stay,
Worn out with these long years of ill,
These ages of delay.
4 Come, and make all things new;
Build up this ruined earth;
5 Come, and begin Thy reign
Of everlasting peace;
Come, take the kingdom to Thyself.

What ringing of a thousand harps
Bespeaks the triumph nigh!
O day, for which creation
And all its tribes were made;
O joy, for all its former woes
A thousand fold repaid!

On Canaan's happy shore;
What knitting severed friendships up
Where partings are no morel

Rescue me from fires undying.

O quickly come, great King of all;
Reign all around us, and within;
Let sin no more our souls enthral.
Let pain and sorrow die with sin:
O quickly come; for Thou alone
Canst make Thy scattered people one.
O quickly come, true Life of all;
For death is mighty all around;
On every home his shadows fall,
On every heart his mark is found:
O quickly come; for grief and pain
Can never cloud Thy glorious reign.
O quickly come, sure Light of all;
For gloomy night broods o'er our way:
And weakly souls begin to fall
With weary watching for the day:
O quickly come; for round Thy throne
\o eye is blind, no night is known." ' V.<4*.

When heaven and earth shall pass away!
What power shall be the sinner's stay?
How shall he meet that dreadful day?

The darning heavens together roll;
When louder yet, and yet more dread,

Swells the high trump that wakes tin-

When man to judgment wakes from clay ,
Be Thou the trembling sinner's stay,
Though heaven and earth shall pass

Their children when they cry. Descending from above,
If they, with love sincere. Our quickened hearts inspire
Their children's wants supply. With fervent zeal and Love,
Much more wilt Thou Thy love display. Enlighten our beclouded eyes,
And answer when Thy children pray. And teach our earth-bound souls to rise.

Received the gift Divine,
And still that light she lifteth
O'er all the earth to shine.
It is the golden casket,
Where gems of truth are stored;
It is the heaven-drawn picture
Of Christ, the living Word.
3 It floateth like a banner
Before God's host unfurled;
It shineth like a beacon

To bear before the nations
Thy true light, as of old.

By this their path to trace,

1 The Spirit breathes upon the word,
And brings the truth to sight;
Precepts and promises afford
A sanctifying light.
2 A glory gilds the sacred page,
Majestic, like the sun:
It gives a light to every age;
It gives, but borrows none.
3 The Hand that gave it still supplies
The gracious light and heat:
His truths upon the nations rise;
They rise, but never set.
4 Let everlasting thanks be Thine
For such a bright display
As makes a world of darkness shine
With beams of heavenly day.
5 My soul rejoices to pursue
The steps of Him I love,
Till glory break upon my view
In brighter worlds above.

One Lord, one faith, one birth;
One holy Name she blesses,
Partakes one holy food,
And to one hope she presses,
With every grace endued.

By heresies distressed,
Yet saints their watch are keeping,
Their cry goes up, " How long? "
And soon the night of weeping

Arise, O King of grace, arise,
And enter to Thy rest:
La! Thy Church waits with longing eyes
Thus to be owned and blest,
2 Enter with all Thy glorious train,
Thy Spirit and Thy word;
All that the ark did once contain
Could no such grace afford.
3 Here, mighty God, accept our vows,
Here let Thy praise be spread;
Ere to His throne He passed,
No longer unfulfilled remain,
The world's offence, His people's stain!
4 Head of Thy Church beneath,
The catholic, the true,
On all her members breathe,
Her broken frame renew:
Then shall Thy perfect will be done,
When Christians love and live as one.
George Robinson, 1842: verse 2, lines 5, 6, alt.
Bless the provisions of Thy house,
And fill Thy poor with bread.
Here let the Son of David reign,
Let God's Anointed shine;
Justice and truth His court maintain,
With love and power Divine.
Here let Him hold a lasting throne;
And, as His kingdom grows,
Fresh honors shall adorn His crown,
And shame confound His foes.

That sacred stream, that heavenly food! And famished well with joyful guests;

1 How sweet and awful is the place
WTith Christ within the doors,
While everlasting love displays
The choicest of her stores.
2 While all our hearts and all our songs
Join to admire the feast,
Each of us cry, with thankful tongues,
"Lord, why was I a guest?
3 "Why was I made to hear Thy voice,
And enter while there's room.
When thousands make a wretched
choice,
And rather starve than come?"
4 Twas the same love that spread the
feast
That sweetly forced us in;
Else we had still refused to taste,
And perished in otir >in.
5 Pity the nations. 0 our God,
Constrain the earth to come;
Send Thy victorious word abroad.
And bring the strangers home.
6 We long to see Thy churches full.
That all the chosen race
May, with one voice and heart and soul,
Sing Thy redeeming grace.

Nor sit the last and lowest at Thy board;
Too long a wanderer and too oft beguiled,

And I could face the cold, rough world again;
And with that treasure in my heart could brook
The wrath of devils and the scorn of men.
4 I hear Thy voice; Thou bidd'st me come and rest;
I come, I kneel, I clasp Thy pierced feet; f Us' 7*1*
Thou bidd'st me take my place, a welcome guest
Among Thy saints, and of Thy banquet eat.

My prayer can only lose itself in Thee;
Dwell Thou for ever in my heart, and there.

3 Our flesh and sense must be denied,
Passion and envy, lust and pride;

Whfle justice, temperance, truth, and love,
Our inward piety approve.
4 Religion bears our spirit s up,
While we expect that blessed hope.
The bright appearance oi the Lord;
And faith stands leaning on Hi^ word.

As Jesus hungered then.

He carried as your due;
The crown that Jesus weareth
He weareth it for you.

The passing ages pray; The flags of dawn appear;
And faithful souls have yearned to see Gird up your loins, ye prophet souls,
On earth that kingdom's day. Proclaim the day is near:
2 But the slow watches of the night
Not less to God belong;
And for the everlasting right
The silent stars are strong.
4 The day in whose clear-shining light
All wrongs shall stand revealed,
When justice shall be throned in might,
And every hurt be healed;
5 When knowledge, hand in hand with peace,
Shall walk the earth abroad; —
The day of perfect righteousness,
The promised day of God. Rcv. Frederick L. Hosmcr, 1891

Something still to do or bear;

Armed by faith, and winged by prayer;

Soon shall close thy earthly mission;
Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days;
Hope soon change to glad fruition,
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.

2 The martyr first, whose eagle eye
Could pierce beyond the grave,
Who saw his Master in the sky,
And called on Him to save:
Like Him, with pardon on his tongue
In midst of mortal pain,
He prayed for them that did the wrong: 4 A ™ble army, men and boys,
Who follows in his train ?
They met the tyrant's brandished steel,
The lion's gory mane;
They bowed their necks the death to
feel:
Who follows in their train ?
3 A glorious band, the chosen few
On whom the Spirit came,
Twelve valiant saints, their hope they
knew,
And mocked the cross and flame:
The matron and the maid,
Around the Saviour's throne rejoice,
In robes of light arrayed:
They climbed the steep ascent of heaven
Through peril, toil, and pain:
O God, to us may grace be given
To follow in their train.

2 Lead on, O King Eternal,
Till sin's fierce war shall cease,
And Holiness shall whisper
The sweet Amen of peace;
For not with swords loud clashing,
Nor roll of stirring drums,
But deeds of love and mercy,
The heavenly kingdom comes.
3 Lead on, O King Eternal:
We follow, not with fears;
For gladness breaks like morning
Where'er Thy face appears;
Thy cross is lifted o'er us;
We journey in its light:
The crown awaits the conquest;
Lead on, O God of might.

Thy earthly loss is heavenly gain: The world's dark night is hastening on.
Men heed thee, love thee, praise thee not; Speed, speed thy work, cast sloth away;

If He shall praise thee, if He deign

Bright the rays celestial shine;
Precious fruits will thus be given
Through an influence all Divine.

For the harvest-time is near.

2 O joy, to see that Master dear!
O joy, to live with Him so near!
O joy, that gentle voice to hear !
3 0 more than joy, to that dear Lord,
In purest, deepest love adored.
All lowly service to afford!
4 Yea, happy was your lot to bring,
In loyal homage to your King,
Each free and gracious offering.
5 O Jesus, throned above the height,
Adoring troops of angels bright \
Wait on Thy bidding day and night:
6 Thy sacred form we cannot see,
Yet, Lord, these hands may render Thee
Each lowly act of charity.
7 For while 'mid want and woe we move,
And tend Thy poor in gentle love,
We minister to Thee above.
8 O gracious Jesus, we confess
Our poor cold love, our nothingness:
Yet Thou wilt own, and Thou wilt bless.

1 O God of mercy, God of might,
In love and pity infinite,
Teach us, as ever in Thy sight,
To live our life to Thee.
2 And Thou who cam'st on earth to die,
That fallen man might live thereby,
O hear us, for to Thee we cry
In hope, 0 Lord, to Thee.
4 For all are brethren, far and wide,
Since Thou, O Lord, for all hast died;
Then teach us, whatsoe'er betide,
To love them all in Thee.
5 In sickness, sorrow, want, or care,
Whate'er it be, 'tis ours to share;
May we, when help is needed, there
Give help as unto Thee.
3 Teach us the lesson Thou hast taught, 6 And may Thy Holy Spirit move
To feel for those Thy blood hath bought ; All those who live, to live in love, |>.
That every word and deed and thought Till Thou shalt greet in heaven above
May work a work for Thee. All those who live to Thee.

From pole to pole, by land and sea,
Glad tidings of salvation:
As nearer draws the day of doom.

Breaks on the night of ages.

Their golden harps are ringing;
Earth and the Paradise of God
One triumph-song are singing.

2 Shall Jew and Gentile meeting
From many a distant shore,
Around one altar kneeling,
One common Lord adore?
Shall all that now divides us
Remove, and pass away
Like shadows of the morning
Before the blaze of day?
3 Shall all that now unites us
More sweet and lasting prove,
A closer bond of union
In a blest land of love?
Shall war be learned no longer?
Shall strife and tumult cease?
All earth His blessed kingdom,
The Lord and Prince of Peace!
4 O long-expected dawning,
Come with thy cheering ray;
When shall the morning brighten,
The shadows flee away?
O sweet anticipation!
It cheers the watchers on
To pray, and hope, and labor,
Till the dark night be gone.

Triumphant reach their home;

2 O Christ, for Thine own glory.
And for our country's weal,
We humbly plead before Thee,
Thyself in us reveal;
And may we know, Lord Jesus,
The touch of Thy dear hand;
And, healed of our diseases,
The tempter's power withstand.
3 Where error smites with blindness,
Enslaves and leads astray,
Do Thou in loving-kindness
Proclaim Thy gospel day;
Till all the tribes and races
That dwell in this fair land,
Adorned with Christian graces,
Within Thy courts shall stand.
Our Saviour King, defend us,
And guide where we should go;
Forth with Thy message send us,
Thy love and light to show;
Till, fired with true devotion
Enkindled by Thy word,
From ocean unto ocean
Our land shall own Thee Lord.

Blow soft o'er Ceylon's isle;
Though every prospect pleases,
And only man is vile:
In vain with lavish kindness
The gifts of God arc strown;
The heathen in his blindness
Bows down to wood and stone.

With wisdom from on high,

The lamp of life deny?

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.
3 Kings shall fall down before Him,
And gold and incense bring;
All nations shall adore Him,
His praise all people sing;
For Him shall prayer unceasing
And daily vows ascend;
His kingdom still increasing,
A kingdom without end.
4 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, —

Long by the prophets of Israel foretold!
Hail to the millions from bondage returning!
Gentiles and Jews the blest vision behold.
3 Lo, in the desert rich flowers are springing,
Streams ever copious are gliding along;
Loud from the mountain-tops echoes are ringing,
Wastes rise in verdure, and mingle in song.

Praise to Jehovah ascending on high;
Fallen are the engines of war and commotion,
Shouts of salvation are rending the sky.

1 Hasten, Lord, the glorious time
When, beneath Messiah's sway,
Every nation, every clime,
Shall the gospel call obey.
3 Then shall wars and tumults cease,
Then be banished grief and pain ;
Righteousness and joy and peace,
Undisturbed shall ever reign.
2 Mightiest kings His power shall own, 4 Bless we, then, our gracious Lord;
Heathen tribes His Name adore; Ever praise His glorious Name;
Satan and his host o'erthrown, All His mighty acts record;
Bound in chains, shall hurt no more. All His wondrous love proclaim.

2 Alleluia thou resoundest,
Salem, Mother ever blest;
Alleluias without ending
Fit yon place of gladsome rest;
. Exiles we, by Babel's waters,
Sit in bondage and distressed.
3 Alleluia! songs of gladness
Suit not always souls forlorn:
Alleluia! sounds of sadness

1 Happy the souls to Jesus joined,
And saved by grace alone;
Walking in all Thy ways, we find
Our heaven on earth begun.
2 The Church triumphant in Thy love,
Their mighty joys we know;
They sing the Lamb in hymns above,
And we in hymns below.
Midst our joyful strains are borne;
For in this dark world of sorrow
We with tears our sins must mourn.
4 Trinity of endless glory,
Hear Thy people as they cry;
Grant us all our heart's deep Longing
In our home beyond the sky;
There to Thee our Alleluia
Singing everlastingly.

And bow before Thy throne,

From hence our spirits rise;

Shall meet Thee in the skies.

One Church, above, beneath,
Though now divided by the stream,
The narrow stream of death ;
One army of the living God,
To His command we bow;
Part of His host hath crossed the flood,
And part is crossing now.

With wishful looks we stand,
And long to see that happy coast,
And reach that heavenly land:

E'en now by faith we join our hands
With those that went before
And greet the blood-besprinkled bands
On the eternal shore.
Our spirits too shall quickly join.
Like theirs with glory crowned,
And shout to set- our Captain's sign,
To hear His trumpet sound:
O that we now might grasp our Guide]
O that the word were given!
Come, Lord of hosts, the waves divide,
And land us all in heaven.

2 Never flinched they from the flame,
From the torture never;
Vain the foeman's sharpest aim,
Satan's best endeavor:
For by faith they saw the land
Decked in all its glory,
Where triumphant now they stand
With the victor's story.
3 Faith they had that knew not shame
Love that could not languish;
And eternal hope o'ercame
Momentary anguish.
He Who trod the self-same road,
Death and hell defeated; c
Wherefore these their passions showed
Calvary repeated.
4 Up and follow, Christian men!
Press through toil and sorrow;
Spurn the night of fear, and then,
O the glorious morrow!
Who will venture on the strife?
Wrho will first begin it?
Who will seize the land of life?
Warriors, up and win it!

1 O what, if we are Christ's,
Is earthly shame or loss?
Bright shall the crown of glory be
. When we have borne the cross.
4 Lord, may that grace be ours,
Like them in faith to bear
All that of sorrow, grief, or pain,
May be our portion here.
2 Keen was the trial once, 5 Enough, if Thou at last
Bitter the cup of woe, The word of blessing give,
When martyred saints, baptized in blood, And let us rest beneath Thy feet,
Christ's sufferings shared below. Where saints and angels live.
3 Bright is their glory now,
Boundless their joy above,
Where, on the bosom of their God,
They rest in perfect love.
6 All glory, Lord, to Thee,
Whom heaven and earth adore,
To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
One God for evermore.

. 2 O Jesus, Thou art knocking;
> .v*And lo, that hand is scarred,
And thorns Thy brow encircle,
. And tears Thy face have marred:
. O love that passeth knowledge,
So patiently to wait !
O sin that hath no equal.
So fast to bar the gate!
3 O Jesus, Thou art pleading
In accents meek and low,
"I died for y«>u. My children.
And will ye treat Me 90?"
O Lord, with shame and sorrow
We open now the door;
Dear Saviour, enter, enter.
And leave us nevermore.

2 There's a wideness in God's mercy,
Like the wideness of the sea;
There's a kindness in His justice,
Which is more than liberty.
There is welcome for the sinner,
And more graces for the good;
• There is mercy with the Saviour,
There is healing in His blood:
3 For the love of God is broader
Than the measures of man's mind,
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind:
But we make His love too narrow
By false limits of our own,
And we magnify His strictness
With a zeal He will not own.
4 There is plentiful redemption . . %g.
In the blood that has been shed;
There is joy for all the members
In the sorrows of the Head.
If our love were but more simple,
We should take Him at His word;
And our lives would be all sunshine
In the sweetness of our Lord.

When all was sin and shame,
A second Adam to the fight
And to the rescue came.

Which did in Adam fail,
Should strive afresh against their foe,
Should strive and should prevail;

Should flesh and blood refine,

And guard me, that I fall no more. And save the soul condemned to die.
6 Then will I teach the world Thy ways;
Sinners shall learn Thy sovereign grace;
I'll lead them to my Saviour's blood,
And they shall praise a pardoning God.

L With broken heart and contrite
A trembling sinner, Lord, I cry;
Thy pardoning grace is rich and free: 4
0 God, be merciful to me.
1 smite upon my troubled breast .
With deep and conscious guilt oppressed,
Christ and His cross my only plea: 5
O God, be merciful to me.
Far off I stand with tearful ey<
Nor dare uplift them to the sides;
Lord, let the cleansing blood.
Blood of the Lamb of God,
Pass o'er my soul.
Then all is peace and light
This soul within:
Thus shall 1 walk with Thee,
The loved Unseen.
Leaning on Thee, my God,
Guided along the road.
Nothing between.
Kc\ . Heratius Bonar, iSob
But Thou dost all my anguish see:
O God, be merciful to me.
Nor alms, nor dcvi\> that I have done,
Can for a single sill atone;
To Calvary alone I flee:
O God, be merciful to me.
And when, redeemed from sin and hell.
With all the ransomed throng I dwell.
My raptured song shall ever be.
"God has been merciful to me."

2 His voice commands the tempest forth, 4 Our hearts, if God we seek to know,
And stills the stormy wave; Shall know Him, and rejoice;
And, though His arm be strong to smite, His coming like the morn shall be,
'Tis also strong to save. Like morning songs His voice.
3 Long hath the night of sorrow reigned; 5 As dew upon the tender herb,
The dawn shall bring us light: Diffusing fragrance round,
God shall appear, and we shall rise As showers that usher in the spring, (&{.*%
With gladness in His sight. And cheer the thirsty ground;
6 So shall His presence bless our souls,
And shed a joyful light;
' That hallowed morn shall chase away
The sorrows of the night.

1 Lord, Thy mercy now entreating,
Low before Thy throne we fall;
Our misdeeds to Thee confessing.
On Thy Name we humbly call.
2 Sinful thoughts and words unloving
Rise against us one by one;
Acts unworthy, deeds unthinking,
Good that we have left undone.
3 Hearts that far from Thee were
straying,
While in prayer we bowed the knee;
Lips that, while Thy praises sounding,
Lifted not the soul to Thee;
4 Precious moments *dly wasted,
Precious hours in folly spent;
Christian vow and light unheeded;
Scarce a thought to wisdom lent.
5 Lord, Thy mercy still entreating,
We with shame our sins would own;
From henceforth, the time redeeming,
May we live to Thee alone.
6 Heavenly Father, bless Thy children;
Hearken from Thy throne on high ;
Loving Saviour, Holy Spirit,
Hear. and heed our humble cry.

2 My sins, my sins, my Saviour!
How sad on Thee they fall;
Seen through Thy gentle patience,
I tenfold feel them all;
I know they are forgiven.
But still, their pain to me
Is all the grief and anguish
They laid, my Lord, on Thee.
3 My sins, my sins, my Saviour!
Their guilt I never knew
Till with Thee in the desert
I near Thy passion drew ;
Till with Thee in the garden
I heard Thy pleading prayer,
And saw the sweat-drops bloody
That told Thy sorrow there.
4 Therefore my songs, my Saviour,
E'en in this time of woe.
Shall tell of all Thy goodness
To suffering man below;
Thy goodness and Thy favor,
Whose presence from above
Rejoice those hearts, my Saviour,
That live in Thee and love.

2 Upon the cross of Jesus
3 I take, 0 cross, thy shadow
Mine eye at times can see For my abiding-place:
The very dying form of One I ask n<» other sunshine than
Who suffered there for me: The sunshine of His face;
And from my stricken heart with tears Content to let the world go by,
Two wonders I confess, — To know no gain nor Loss;
The wonders of redeeming love My sinful self my only shame,
And my own worthlessness. My glory all, the cross.

He doth my soul redeem:
I lay my griefs on Jesus,
My burdens and my cares;
He from them all releases,
He all my sorrows shares.
3 I rest my soul on Jesus,
This weary soul of mine;
His right hand me embraces,
I on His breast recline,
I love the Name of Jesus,

Like fragrance on the breezes . . , , | : J ,
His Name abroad is poured.
I long to be like Jesus,
Meek, loving, lowly, mild;

Amid the heavenly throng,
To sing with saints His praises,
To learn the angels' song. fikVtf: fL\X9

Make and keep me pure within.

Thou art in the midst of foes:

Wait for thy unguarded hours:

Ambushed lies the evil one:
Watch and pray.

And the fearful breakers roar

Then, while leaning -on Thy breast, Wt>. /J '.%
May I hear Thee say to me,
"Fear not, I will pilot thee."
Rev. Edward Hopper, 1871
Hear the victors who o'ercame;
Still they mark each warrior's way;
All with one sweet voice exclaim,
"Watch and pray."
5 Hear, above all, hear Thy Lord,
Him thou lovest to obey;
Hide within thy heart His word,
"Watch and pray."
6 Watch, as if on that alone
Hung the issue of the day;
Pray, that help may be sent down:
Watch and pray.

Pilgrims in this vale of tears,
Through the trials yet decreed us,

When in devious paths we stray,
Let Thy goodness never fail us,
Lead us in Thy perfect way.

We know not what the path may be
As yet by us untrod;
But we can trust our all to Thee,

If called, like Abraham's child, to climb

Some angel may be there in time;
Deliverance shall arise:
Or, if some darker lot be good,

The sorrow, pain, or solitude,
That make the spirit pure. $

And we, His followers here,
Must do Thy will and praise Thy Name,
In hope, and love, and fear.

O Father, Son, and Spirit, now
Accept our feeble praise.

2 I dimly guess, from blessings known,
Of greater out of sight;
And, with the chastened Psalmist, own
His judgments too are right.
And if my heart and flesh are weak
To bear an untried pain, 4
The bruised reed He will not break,
But strengthen and sustain.
3 I know not what the future hath
Of marvel or surprise,
Assured alone that life and death
His mercy underlie!.
And so beside the silent sea
I wait the muffled oar:
No harm from Him can come to me
On ocean or on shore.
I know not where His islands lift
Their fronded palms in air;
I only know I cannot drift
Beyond His love and care.

Give me Thy people's bread,
Their portion rich and sure.
The manna of Thy word
Let my soul feed upon;
And if all else should fail,
My Lord, Thy will be done.
3 My Jesus, as Thou wilt!
Though seen through many a tear,
Let not my star of hope
Grow dim or disappear.
V V I I l
Since Thou on earth hast wept,
And sorrowed oft alone,
If I must weep with Thee,
My Lord, Thy will be done.
4 My Jesus, as Thou wilt!
All shall be well for me;
Each changing future scene
I gladly trust with Thee.
Straight to my home above
I travel calmly on,
And sing, in life or death,
" My Lord, Thy will be done."

Shouldst lead me on;

Lead Thou me on.
I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,
Pride ruled my will: remember not past years.

And with the morn those angel faces smile,

My ransomed soul He leadeth,
And, where the verdant pastures grow,

And on his shoulder gently laid,
And home, rejoicing, brought me.

Our sharpest pang, our bitterest tear,
On Thee we cast each earth-born care;
We smile at pain while Thou art near.
2 Though long the weary way we tread,
And sorrow crown each lingering year,
No path we shun, no darkness dread,
Our hearts still whispering, Thou art near.
3 When drooping pleasure turns to grief,
And trembling faith is changed to fear,
The murmuring wind, the quivering leaf,
Shall softly tell us, Thou art near.
4 On Thee we fling our burdening woe,
O Love Divine, for ever dear;
Content to suffer while we know,
Living and dying, Thou art near.

2 In holy contemplation
We sweetly then pursue
The theme of God's salvation,
And find it ever new;
Set free from present sorrow,
We cheerfully can say,
Let the unknown to-morrow
Bring with it what it may.
3 It can bring with it nothing
But He will bear us through:
Who gives the lilies clothing
Will clothe His people too:
Beneath the spreading heavens
No creature but is fed ;
And He who feeds the ravens
Will give His children bread,
4 Though vine nor fig-tree neither
Their wonted fruit shall bear,
Though all the field should wither,
Nor flocks nor herds be there;
Yet God the same abiding,
His praise shall tune my voice,
For, while in Him confiding,
I cannot but rejoice. 9 l • J^\ U

2 I could not do without Thee,
I cannot stand alone,
I have no strength or goodness,
No wisdom of my own;
But Thou, beloved Saviour,
Art All in all to me,
And weakness will be power,
If leaning hard on Thee.
3 I could not do without Thee;
No other friend can read
The spirit's strange deep longings,
Interpreting its need;
No human heart could enter
Each dim recess of mine,
And soothe, and hush, and calm it,
O blessed Lord, but Thine.
4 I could not do without Thee,
For years are fleeting fast,
And soon in solemn loneliness
The river must be passed;
But Thou wilt never leave me,
And though the waves roll high,
I know Thou wilt be near me,
And whisper, "It is I."

2 In Thee my trust abideth,
On Thee my hope relies,
O Thou whose love provideth
For all beneath the skies;
O Thou whose mercy found me,
From bondage set me free,
• And then for ever bound me
With threefold cords to Thee.
3 Alas, that I should ever
Have failed in love to Thee,
The only One who never
Forgat or slighted me!
O for a heart to love Thee
More truly as I ought,
And nothing place above Thee
In deed, or word, or thought.
4 O for that choicest blessing
Of living in Thy love,
And thus on earth possessing
The peace of heaven above!
O for the bliss that by it
The soul securely knows,
The holy calm and quiet
Of faith's serene repose]

548 ST. JUDE 8.7.8.8.7. Charles J. Vincent, 1877
Yet He found me; I beheld Him
Bleeding on the accursed tree,
Heard Him pray, "Forgive them, Father!"
And my wistful heart said faintly,
"Some of self, and some of Thee."
Day by day His tender mercy,
Healing, helping, full and free.
Sweet and strong, and, ah! so patient,
Brought me lower, while I whispered,
"Less of self, and more of Thee."
Higher than the highest heavens, ^|w'-. \ .
Deeper than the deepest sea,
Lord, Thy love at last hath conquered;
Grant me now my supplication,
"None of self, and all of Thee."
Rev. Theodore Monod, 1874
549 (BROCKLESBURY) 8.7.8.7.
1 Something every heart is loving; —
None but Christ can bring it rest:
Lord, my heart to Thee is given;
Take it, for it loves Thee best.
2 Though the world were set beside Thee,
Still my heart would choose Thee now;
Naught on earth and naught in heaven
Seems so beautiful as Thou.
Radiant with the Father's glory
Is the vision of Thy face,
Bright with Thine own loving-kindness,
Full of pity, full of grace.
Keep my heart still true and faithful,
That my earthly life may be
Like a vesture of the glory
Of my hidden life in Thee.

2 Once again beside the cross,
All my gain I count but loss;
* Earthly pleasures fade away, —
Clouds they are that hide my day:
Hence, vain shadows! let me see
Jesus crucified for me.

1 Dear Lord and Master mine,
Thy happy servant see;
My Conqueror, with what joy Divine
Thy captive clings to Thee!
2 I love Thy yoke to wear, v. «£ U* M,
To feel Thy gracious bands;
Sweetly restrained by Thy care
And happy in Thy hands.
3 No bar would I remove,
No bond would I unbind;
Within the limits of Thy love
Full liberty I find.

3 Blessed Saviour, Thine am I,
Thine to live, and Thine to die ;
Height or depth, or creature power,
Ne'er shall hide my Saviour more: \
Ever shall my glory be,
Only, only, only Thee.
Rev. George Dufl'ield, 1851
4 I would not walk alone, ' 3 .
But still with Thee, my God;
At every step my blindness own,
And ask of Thee the road.
5 Dear Lord and Master mine,
Still keep Thy servant true;
My Guardian and my Guide Divine,
Bring, bring Thy pilgrim through.
6 My Conqueror and my King,
Still keep me in Thy train;
And with Thee Thy glad captive bring
When Thou return'st to reign.

No mortal can with Him compare,
Among the sons of men;
.Fairer is He than all the fair
That fill the heavenly train.
He saw me plunged in deep distress,
He flew to my relief;
For me He bore the shameful cross,
And carried all my grief.

And all the joys I have;

FERGUSON S. M
He makes me triumph over death.
And saves me from the grave.

He brings my weary feet:
Shows me the glories of my God,
And makes my joys complete.

Such proofs of love Divine,
Had I a thousand heart- to give.

571 (RETREAT) L. M.
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-stained mercy-seat. )
3 There is a spot where spirits blend,
Where friend holds fellowship with
friend,
6 Show me what I have to do,
Every hour my strength renew: ^A.i* Q '»<&]>
Let me live a life of faith,
Let me die Thy people's death. ,"
Rev. John Newton. 1779
4 Ah, whither could we flee for aid, \
When tempted, desolate, dismayed,
Or how the hosts of hell defeat,
Had suffering saints no mercy-seat?
5 There, there on eagle wings we soar,
And time and sense seem all no more
And heaven comes down our souls to
greet,
And glory crowns the mercy-seat.
6 O may my hand forget her skill,
My tongue be silent, cold, and still,
Though sundered far; by faith they meet This bounding heart forget to beat,
Around the common mercy-seat. If I forget the mercy-seat.

2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh,
The falling of a tear,
The upward glancing of an eye
When none but God is near.
4 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice
Returning from his ways,
While angels in their songs rejoice.
And cry, ''Ik-hold, he prays."
3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech 5 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath,
That infant lips can try; The Christian's native air.
Prayer the sublimest strains that reach His watchword at the gates of death;
The Majesty on high. He enters heaven with prayer.

What! with pipe and tabor
Dream away the light,
When he bids you labor,
When He tells you, " Fight"?
5 While I do my duty,
Struggling through the tide,
Whisper Thou of beauty
On the other side;
Tell who will the story
Of to-day's distress; —
O the future glory! . T \ \
O the loveliness!

2 We would see Jesus, the great Rock Foundation
Whereon our feet were set by sovereign grace:
Not life nor death, with all their agitation,
Can thence remove us, if we see Hi> face.
3 We would see Jesus: other lights are paling, Irtr
Which for long years we have rejoiced to see;
The blessings of our pilgrimage are failing:
We would not mourn them, for we. go to Thee.
4 WTe would see Jesus; yel the spirit lingers
Round the dear objects it has loved SO long.
And earth from earth can scarce unclose its fingers;
Our love to Thee makes not this love less strong.
5 We would see Jesus: sense is all too blinding,
And heaven appears too dim, too far away;
Wfe would see Thee, l<> gain a sweet reminding
That Thou hast promised our great debt to pay.
6 We would see Jesus: thi> is all we're- needing;
Strength, joy, and willingness come with t In* sight;
We would see Jesus, dying, risen, pleading;
Then welcome day, and farewell mortal night.

Nor stay in all their course;
Fire ascending seeks the sun;
Both speed them to their source:
So my soul, derived from God,
Pants to view His glorious face,
Forward tends to His abode,
To rest in His embrace.
3 Fly me riches, fly me cares,
Whilst I that coast explore;
Flattering world, with all thy snares.
Solicit me no more.
Pilgrims fix not here their home;
Strangers tarry but a night;
When the last clear morn is eome,
They'll rise to joyful light
Cease, ye pilgrims, cease to mourn.
Press onward to the prize'
Soon our Saviour will return
Triumphant in the skies:
Yet a season, and you know
Happy entrance will be given,
All our sorrows left below.
And earth exchanged for heaven.

Where the heaven is bright.
Till the veil be lifted,

2 Once earthly joy I craved,
Sought peace and rest;
Now Thee alone I seek;
Give what is best:
This all my prayer shall be,
More love, O Christ, to Thee,
More love to Thee!
. . 3 Let sorrow do its work,

Sweet are Thy messengers,
Sweet their refrain.
When they can sing with me,
More love, O Christ, to Thee,
More love to Thee!

Whisper Thy praise;
This be the parting cry
My heart shall raise,
This still Its prayer shall be.
More- love, 0 Christ, to Thee.
More love to Thee!

1 Calm me, my God, and keep me calm, 4 Calm in the hour of buoyant health,
While these hot breezes blow; Calm in my hour of pain;
Be like the night-dew's cooling balm Calm in my poverty or wealth,
Upon earth's fevered brow. Calm in my loss or gain;
2 Calm me, my God, and keep me calm
Let Thine outstretched wing •
Be like the shade of Elim's palm
Beside her desert-spring.
3 Yes, keep me calm, though loud and
rude
The sounds my ear that greet,
Calm in the closet's solitude,
Calm in the bustling street;
5 Calm in the sufferance of wrong,
Like Him who bore my shame.
Calm 'mid the threatening, taunting
throng
Who hate Thy holy Name;
6 Calm as the ray o\ sun or Stat
Which storms assail in vain;
Moving unruflled through earth'- war.
The eternal calm to gain.

While passion stains and folly dims our youth,
And age comes on uncheered by faith and hope.

Involved in shadows of a moral night;

If we could cast our care on Thee,
If we from self could rest,
And feel at heart that One above,
In perfect wisdom, perfect love,
. Is working for the best!
2 How far from this our daily life,
Ever disturbed by anxious strife,
By sudden, wild alarms!
O could we but relinquish all
Our earthly props, and simply fall
On Thy almighty arms!
3 Could we but kneel and cast our load,
E'en while we pray, upon our God,
Then rise with lightened cheer,
Sure that the Father, who is nigh
To still the famished raven's cry,
Will hear in that we fear! (&-tly5": (<?
4 Lord, make^ these faithless hearts of ours
Such lesson; 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,

How fast they tire and faint;
How many a spot defiles the robe
That wraps an earthly saint:
O for a heart that never sins,
O for a soul washed white,
O for a voice to praise our King,
Nor weary day or night!
3 Here faith is ours, and heavenly hope,/
And grace to lead us higher;
But there are perfectness and peace,
Beyond our best desire:

And by Thy life laid down,
Grant that we fall not from Thy graceful
Nor cast away our crown! frcAj-.S'.H.

Where the brown lichen whitens, and the fox

Our eyes are very heavy, and our hearts
Search for Thy coming: — when the light departs
At evening, bring us home.
4 The darkness gathers; through the gloom no star
Rises to guide us; we have wandered far;
Without Thy lamp we know not where we are:
At evening bring us home.

4 And now we watch and struggle,
And now we live in hope,
And Zion in her anguish
With Babylon must cope;
I
5 But He, whom now we trust in,
Shall then be seen and known;
And they that know and see Him
Shall have Him for their own.
6 The morning shall awaken,
And shadows shall decay,
And each true-hearted servant
Shall shine as doth the day..
7 Yes, God, my King and Portion,^'. *• =
In fulness of His grace,
We then shall see for ever, /^t^i ;
And worship face to face.

1 O where shall rest be found
Rest for the weary soul?
'Twere vain the ocean-depths to sound,
Or pierce to either pole.
2 The world can never give '
The bliss for which we sigh ;
'Tis not the whole of life to live,
Nor all of death to die.
There are the good and blest,
Those I love most and best;
And there I too shall rest,
Heaven is my home.
Therefore I murmur not,
Heaven is my home;
Whate'er my earthly lot,
Heaven is my home:
And I shall surely stand
There at my Lord's right hand;
Heaven is my fatherland.
Heaven is my home.

3 Beyond this vale o! tears
There is a life above,
Unmeasured by the (tight of years,
And all that life is love.
4 Here would we end our quest :
Alone are found in Thee
The life of perfect love, the rest
Of immortality.

2 There everlasting spring abides,
And never- withering flowers;
Death, like a narrow sea, divides
This heavenly land from ours.
4 But timorous mortals start and shrink
To cross this narrow sea ;
And linger, shivering, on the brink,
And fear to launch away.
3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood 5 O could we make our doubts remove,
Stand dressed in living green; Those gloomy doubts that rise,
So to the Jews old Canaan stood, And see the Canaan that we love
While Jordan rolled between. With unbeclouded eyes;
6 Could we but climb where Moses stood,
And view the landscape o'er,
Not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,
Should fright us from the shore.

2 There for ever and for ever
Alleluia is outpoured;
For unending, for unbroken,
Is the feast-day of the Lord;
All is pure, and all is holy
That within thy walls is stored.
3 There no cloud or passing vapor
Dims the brightness of the air;
Endless noonday, glorious noonday,
From the Sun of suns is there;
There no night brings rest from labor,
"E; /5 There unknown are toil and care.
4 O how glorious and resplendent, />-a
Fragile body, shalt thou be, ''^T/
When endued with so much beauty,
Full of health, and strong, and free,
Full of vigor, full of pleasure
That shall last eternally!
5 Now with gladness, now with courage,
Bear the burden on thee laid,
That hereafter these thy labors
May with endless gifts be paid,
And in everlasting glory /
Thou with joy may'st be arrayed.

Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
3 Ring out the grief that saps the mind,
For those that here we see no more;
Ring out the feud of rich and poor,
Ring in redress to all mankind.
4 Ring out false pride in place and blood,
The civic slander and the spite;
Ring in the love of truth and right,
Ring in the common love oi good.
5 Ring out old shapes oi foul disease,
Ring out the narrowing lust oi gold;
Ring out the thousand wars of old,
Ring in the thousand years oi peace.

2 And now, on this our festal day.
Thy bounteous hand confessing,
Upon Thine altar, Lord, we lay
The first-fruits of Thy blessing:
By Thee the souls of men are fed
With gifts of grace supernal;

bread,

3 We bear the burden of the day,
And often toil seems dreary;
But labor ends with sunset ray,
And rest is for the weary:
May we, the angel-reaping o'er, \, \ 3 \ 3 o ,
Stand at the last accepted.
Christ's golden sheaves for evermore
To garners bright elected. dkk.&'l
O blessed is that land of God
Where saints abide for ever,
Where golden fields spread fair and
broad.
Where flows the crystal river:
The strains i)i all its holy throng
With ours to-day arc blending;
Thrice bless&d is that harvest-song
Which never hath an ending.

All the world is God's own field,
Fruit unto His praise to yield;
Wheat and tares together sown,
Unto joy or sorrow grown:
First the blade, and then the ear,
Then the full corn shall appear:
Lord of harvest, grant that we
Wholesome grain and pure may be.
3 For the Lord our God shall come,
And shall take His harvest home;
From His field shall in that day
All offences purge away;
Give His angels charge at last
In the fire the tares to cast,
But the fruitful ears to store
In His garner evermore.
4 Even so, Lord, quickly come /,
To Thy final harvest-home; '
( lather Thou Thy people in, xV/j
Free from sorrow, free from sin;
There for ever purified,
In Thy presence to abide:
Come, with all Thine angels, come,
Raise the glorious harvest-home.

That through our homes dost move,
Veiled in the softened splendor
Of holy household love,
A throne without Thy blessing
Were labor without rest,
And cottages possessing
Thy blessedness, are blest.

God bless these hearts made one!
Unsevered and unblighted
May they through life go on;
Here in earth's home preparing
For the bright home above,
And there for ever sharing
Its joy where God is Love. fhto.l±\ /i.

In holy faith and blessed hope are one,

Early to Thee in humble faith and prayer,
To Thee, their Friend, who from the heights of heaven
Guides them, and guards with more than mothers care!

Whatever his appointed work may be,
Till every common task seems great and holy,

Have parted from our throng!
They watch us from the crystal wall.
And echo back our song.
They rest, beyond complaints,
Beyond all sighs and tears:
Praise be to God for all His saints
Who wrought in bygone years.

Our hands still lift on high;
The Lord they followed evermore
To us is also nigh.

To keep these ranks complete;
And He. whose host is one
Throughout the countless spheres,
Will guide His marching servants on
Through everlasting years.

3 And, through all His wondrous childhood 5 And our eyes at last shall see Him^W^^'.
He would honor and obey, Through His own redeeming love;
Love and watch the lowly maiden For that Child so dear and gentle
In whose gentle arms He lay: Is our Lord in heaven above,
Christian children all must be And He leads His children on
Mild, obedient, good as He. To the place where He is gone.
6 Not in that poor lowly stable,
With the oxen standing by,
We shall see Him, but in heaven,
Set at God's right hand on high; tSet.^kkv
When like stars His children crowned
All in white shall wait around.

2 There's a tumult of joy pfi- # t
O'er the wonderful birth!
For the Virgin's sweet Boy
Is the Lord of the Earth.
Ay! the star rains its lire and the beautiful sing,
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King.
3 In the light of that star
Lie the ages impearled;
And that song from afar
Has swept over the world:
Every hearth is aflame, and the beautiful sing
In the homes of the nations that Jesus is King.
4 We rejoice in the light.
And we echo the song
That comes down through the night
From the heavenly throng:
Ay! we shout to the lovely evangel they bring.
And we greet in His cradle our Saviour and King.

How they crossed the desert wild,

How they opened all their treasure,
Kneeling to that infant King;
Gave the gold and fragrant incense,
Gave the myrrh in offering?

2 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."
3 Yet still to His footstool in prayer I may go,
And ask for a share in His love;
And if I now earnestly seek Him below,
I shall see Him and hear Him above;
4 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.
5 But thousands and thousands who wander and fall
Never heard of that heavenly home;
I should like them to know there is room for them all,
And that Jesus has bid them to come.
6 I long for the joy of that glorious time,
The sweetest and brightest and best,
When the dear little children of every clime
Shall crowd to His arms and be blest.

2 And since the Lord retaineth
His love for children still,
Though now as King He reigneth
On Zion's heavenly hill,
We'll flock around His banner
Who sits upon His throne,
And cry aloud, "Hosanna
To David's royal Son!"
3 For should we fail proclaiming
Our great Redeemer's praise,
The stones, our silence shaming,
Would tlu-ir Hosannas raise.
But shall we only render
The tribute of our word-?
No; while our hearts are tender.

Moves at the breathing of Thy will.

2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discourage'd :
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
Can we find a friend so faithful,
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness —
Take it to tht Lord in prayer!

3 Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our Refuge, —
Take it to the Lord in praver !

Thou wilt find a solace there.

2 Day is declining, and the sun is low;
The shadows lengthen, light makes haste to go:
Room, room, still room! O enter, enter now.
3 The bridal hall is tilling for the feast;
Pass in, pass in, and be the Bridegroom's guest:
Room, room, still room! O enter, enter now.
4 Yet there is room: still open stands the gate,
The gate of love; it is not yet too late:
Room, room, still room! O enter, enter now.
5 O enter in; that banquet is for thee;
That cup of everlasting joy is free:
Room, room, still room! O enter, enter now.
6 All heaven is there, all joy! Go in, go in;
The angels beckon thee the prize to win:
Room, room, still room! O enter, enter now.

2 God calling yet! shall I not rise?
Can I His loving voice despise,
And basely His kind care repay?
He calls me still; can I delay?
4 God calling yet ! and shall I give
No heed, but still in bondage live?
I wait, but He does not forsake;
He calls me still; my heart, awake!
3 God calling yet! and shall He knock, 5 God calling yet! I cannot stay;
And I my heart the closer lock? My heart I yield without delay:
He still is waiting to receive, Vain world, farewell! from thee I part;
And shall I dare His Spirit grieve? The voice of God hath reached my heart.

718 (ZEPHYR) L. M.
1 Behold! a Stranger's at the door;
He gently knocks, has knocked before;
Has waited long, is waiting still :
You treat no other friend so ill.
2 But will He prove a friend indeed?
He will, the very Friend you need;
The Man of Nazareth, 'tis He,
With garments dyed at Calvary.
3 O lovely attitude! He stands
With melting heart and laden hands:
O matchless kindness ! and He shows
This matchless kindness to His foes.
4 Rise, touched with gratitude Divine;
Turn out His enemy and thine,
That soul-destroying monster, sin,
And let the heavenly Stranger in.
5 Admit Him ere His anger burn;
His feet, departed, ne'er return:
Admit Him, or the hour's at hand .
When at His door denied you'll stand.

And all who enter in
Shall find a Father's welcome,
And pardon for their sin;
. The past shall be forgotten,
A present joy be given,
A future grace be promised,
A glorious crown in heaven.
3 To-day the Father calls me,
The Holy Spirit waits,
The blessed angels gather
Around the heavenly gates:
No question will be asked me,
How often I have come;
Although I oft have wandered,
It is my Father's home.
0 all-embracing mercy,
Thou ever-open door,
What should I do without thee
When heart and eyes run o'er?
When all things seem against me,
To drive me to despair,
1 know one gate is open,
One ear will hear my prayer.

Directions for Cbanting
1 Chants consist of two distinct divisions: one portion is recited, the other
portion is sung. .
2 The words from the commencement of each verse and half-verse up to the
accented syllable, which is printed in italics, are called the Recitation, and should
be recited smoothly, and without undue haste.
3 On reaching the accented syllable, and beginning with it, the music of the
chant commences, in strict time (a tempo), the upright strokes corresponding to
the bars. The Recitation must therefore be considered as outside the chant, and
may be of any length. The note on which the Recitation is made is called the
Reciting-note.
4 If there is no syllable after that which is accented, the accented syllable must
be held for one whole bar or measure.
5 An asterisk (*) is a direction to take breath. Other stops (, ;) must be at-
tended to, as in good reading.
6 As the accent holds the position of the first beat of the first bar, it is unneces-
sary to sing it louder than any of the words recited: its position, musically, will
give it quite enough emphasis.
7 Final ed is always to be pronounced as a separate syllable.
8 The expression "2nd part" indicates that the verse so marked is to be sung
to the second half of a double chant, when such chant is used.

SELECTION 1
Psalm i
i BLESSED i- the man that walketh
not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor
itandeth in the way of sinners, nor sittcth
in the scat ui the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the
Lord ; and in his law doth he meditate
day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted
by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth
his fruit in his season ; his leaf also shall
not wither ; and whatsoever he doeth shall
prosper.
4 The ungodly are not so : but are like
the chaff which the wind driveth away.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand
in the judgment, nor sinners in the con-
gregation of the righteous.
6 For the Lord knoweth the way of
the righteous : but the way of the ungodly
shall perish.
Psalm 2
7 WHY do the heathen rage, and the
people imagine a vain thing?
8 The kings of the earth set them-
selves, and the rulers take counsel to-
gether, against the Lord, and against his
Anointed, saying,
9 Let us break their bands asunder,
and cast away their cords from us.
10 He that sitteth in the heavens shall
laugh : the Lord shall have them in de-
rision.
1 1 Then shall he speak unto them in
his wrath, and vex them in his sore dis-
pleasure.
12 Vet have I set my King upon my
holy hill of Zion.
13 I will declare the decree : the Lord
hath said unto me, Thou art my Son ; this
day have I begotten thee.

14 Ask of me, and I shall give I

4 For thou art not a God that hath
pleasure in wickedness : neither shall evil

8 O LORD our Lord, how excellent is

work of thy fingers, the moon and the

1 1 What is man, that thou art mindful
of him? and the son of man, that thou
visitest him?
12 For thou hast made him a little
lower than the angels, and hast crowned
him with glory and honor.
13 Thou madest him to have domin-

hast put all things under his feet :
14 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the
beasts of the field ;

the paths of the seas.

16 In my distress I called upon the
Lord, and cried unto my God : he heard
my voice out of his temple, and my cry
came before him, even into his ears.
17 Then the earth shook and trem-
bled ; the foundations also of the hills
moved and were shaken, because he was
wroth.
18 There went up a smoke out of
his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth
devoured : coals were kindled by it.
19 He bowed the heavens also, and
came down : and darkness was under
his feet.
20 And he rode upon a cherub, and
did fly : yea, he did fly upon the wings
of the wind.
2 1 He made darkness his secret place ;
his pavilion round about him were dark
waters and thick clouds of the skies.
22 At the brightness that was before
him his thick clouds passed, hail stones
and coals of fire.
23 The Lord also thundered in the
heavens, and the Highest gave his voice ;
hail stones and coals of fire.
24 Yea, he sent out his arrows, and
scattered them ; and he shot out light-
nings, and discomfited them.
25 Then the channels of waters were
seen, and the foundations of the world
were discovered at thy rebuke, O Lord,
at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
26 He sent from above, he took me,
he drew me out of many waters.
27 He delivered me from my strong
enemy, and from them which hated me :
for they were too strong for me.
28 They prevented me in the day of
my calamity : but the Lord was my stay.

1 I WILL bless the Lord at all times :
his praise shall continually be in my
mouth.

Lord : the humble shall hear thereof, and
be glad.
3 O magnify the Lord with me, and
let us exalt his name together.
4 I sought the Lord, and he heard
me, and delivered me from all my fears.
5 They looked unto him, and were
lightened : and their faces were not
ashamed.
6 This poor man cried, and the Lord
heard him, and saved him out of all his

19 Many are the afflictions of the
righteous : but the Lord delivereth him
out of them all.
20 He keepeth all his bones : not one

desolate.
22 The Lord redeemeth the soul of
his servants : and none of them that trust
in him shall be desolate.

PSALM 39
i I SAID, I will take heed to my
ways, that I sin not with my tongue : I
will keep my mouth with a bridle, while
the wicked is before me.
2 I was dumb with silence, I held my
peace, even from good j and my sorrow
was stirred.
3 My heart was hot within me ; while
I was musing the fire burned : then spake
I with my tongue,
4 Lord, make me to know mine end,
and the measure of my days, what it is ;
that I may know how frail I am.
5 Behold, thou hast made my days
as a handbreadth ; and mine age is as
nothing before thee : verily every man at
his best state is altogether vanity.
6 Surely every man walketh in a vain
show : surely they are disquieted in vain :
he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not
who shall gather them.
7 And now, Lord, what wait I for?
my hope is in thee.
8 Deliver me from all my transgres-
sions : make me not the reproach of the
foolish.
9 I was dumb, I opened not my
mouth ; because thou didst it.
10 Remove thy stroke away from me :
I am consumed by the blow of thine
hand.
1 1 When thou with rebukes dost cor-
rect man for iniquity, thou makest his
beauty to consume away like a moth :
surely every man is vanity.
12 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give
ear unto my cry ; hold not thy peace at
my tears : for I am a stranger with
thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers
were.

strength, before I go hence, and be no
more.

horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set
my feet upon a rock, and established my
goings.

my mouth, even praise unto our God :
many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust
in the Lord.
17 Blessed is that man that maketh
the Lord his trust, and respecteth not
the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

wonderful works which thou hast done,
and thy thoughts which are to us-ward :

order unto thee : if I would declare and
speak of them, they are more than can
be numbered.

not desire ; mine ears hast thou opened :
burnt offering and sin offering hast thou
not required.

refrained my lips, O Lord, thou knowest.

faithfulness and thy salvation : I have not
concealed thy loving-kindness and thy

evening to rejoice.
20 Thou visitest the earth, and water-
est it : thou greatly enrichest it with the
river of God, which is full of water : thou
preparest them corn, when thou hast so
provided for it.
21 Thou waterest the ridges thereof
abundantly : thou settlest the furrows
thereof : thou makest it soft with showers :
thou blessest the springing thereof.
22 Thou crownest the year with thy
goodness ; and thy paths drop fatness.
23 They drop upon the pastures of the
wilderness : and the little hills rejoice on
every side.
24 The pastures are clothed with
flocks ; the valleys also are covered over
with corn ; they shout for joy, they also
sing.

9 Which holdeth our soul in life, and
suffereth not our feet to be moved.
10 For thou, O God, hast proved us :
thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
1 1 Thou broughtest us into the net ;
thou laidst affliction upon our loins.

13 I will go into thy house with burnt
offerings : I will pay thee my vows,

I will offer bullocks with goats.

Psalm 73 : 1-26
1 TRULY God is good to Israel, even
to such as are of a clean heart.
2 But as for me, my feet were almost
gone ; my steps had well nigh slipped.
3 For I was envious at the foolish,
when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4 For there are no bands in their
death : but their strength is firm.
5 They are not in trouble as other
men ; neither are they plagued like other
men.
6 Therefore pride compasseth them
about as a chain ; violence covereth them
as a garment.
7 Their eyes stand out with fatness :
they have more than heart could wish.
8 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly
concerning oppression : they speak loftily.
9 They set their mouth against the
heavens, and their tongue walketh through
the earth.
10 Therefore his people return hither :
and waters of a full cup are wrung out to
them.
1 1 And they say, How doth God know ?
and is there knowledge in the Most High?
12 Behold, these are the ungodly, who
prosper in the world ; they increase in
riches.
13 Verily I have cleansed my heart in
vain, and washed my hand ■ in innocency.
14 For all the day long have I been
plagued, and chastened every morning.
15 If I say, I will speak thus ; behold,
I should offend against the generation of
thy children.
16 When I thought to know this, it
was too painful for me ;
1 7 Until I went into the sanctuary of
God ; then understood I their end.
18 Surely thou didst set them in slip-
pery places : thou castedst them down
into destruction.
19 How are they brought into desola-
tion, as in a moment ! they are utterly
consumed with terrors.
20 As a dream when one awaketh ; so,
O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt
despise their image.
2 1 Thus my heart was grieved, and I
was pricked in my reins.
22 So foolish was I, and ignorant : I
was as a beast before thee.
23 Nevertheless I am continually with
thee : thou hast holden me by my right
hand.
24 Thou shalt guide me with thy coun-
sel, and afterward receive me to glory.
25 Whom have I in heaven but thee?
and there is none upon earth that I desire
besides thee.

1 BLESSED be the Lord my strength,
which teacheth my hands to war, and my
fingers to fight :

high tower, and my deliverer ; my shield,
and he in whom I trust ; who subdueth
my people under me.
3 Lord, what is man, that thou takest
knowledge of him ! or the son of man,
that thou makest account of him !
4 Man is like to vanity : his days are
as a shadow that passeth away.
5 Bow thy heavens, O Lord, and come

destroy them.

1 MY God, my Cod. why hast thou
forsaken me? why art thou so far from
€J)e $£altcr
helping me, and from the words of my
roaring ?
2 O my God, I cry in the daytime,
but thou hearest not ; and in the night
season, and am not silent.
3 But thou art holy, O thou that in-
habitest the praises of Israel.
4 Our fathers trusted in thee : they
trusted, and thou didst deliver them.
5 They. cried unto thee, and were de-
livered : they trusted in thee, and were
not confounded.
6 But I am a worm, and no man ; sl
reproach of men, and despised of the
people.
7 All they that see me laugh me to
scorn : they shoot out the lip, they shake
the head, saying,
8 He trusted on the Lord that he
would deliver him : let him deliver him,
seeing he delighted in him.
9 Be not far from me ; for trouble is
near ; for there is none to help.
10 Many bulls have compassed me :
strong bulls of Bashan have beset me
round.
ii They gaped upon me with their
mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
12 I am poured out like water, and all
my bones are out of joint : my heart is
like wax ; it is melted in the midst of my
bowels.
13 My strength is dried up like a pot-
sherd ; and my tongue cleaveth to my
jaws j and thou hast brought me into the
dust of death.
14 For dogs have compassed me : the
assembly of the wicked have inclosed me :
they pierced my hands and my feet.
15 I may tell all my bones : they look
and stare upon me.
16 They part my garments among
them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
17 But be not thou far from me, O
Lord : O my strength, haste thee to help
me.
18 Deliver my soul from the sword;
my darling from the power of the dog.
19 Save me from the lion's mouth :
for thou hast heard me from the horns of
the unicorns.
20 I will declare thy name unto my
brethren : in the midst of the congregation
will I praise thee.
21 Ye that fear the Lord, praise him ;
all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him ; and
fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.
22 For he hath not despised nor ab-
horred the affliction of the afflicted ;
neither hath he hid his face from him ;
but when he cried unto him, he heard.
23 My praise shall be of thee in the
great congregation : I will pay my vows
before them that fear him.
24 The meek shall eat and be satisfied :
they shall praise the Lord that seek him :
your heart shall live for ever.
25 All the ends of the world shall re-
member and turn unto the Lord : and
all the kindreds of the nations shall wor-
ship before thee.
26 For the kingdom is the Lord's :
and he is the governor among the nations.
27 All they that be fat upon earth shall
eat and worship : all they that go down
to the dust shall bow before him : and
none can keep alive his own soul.
28 A seed shall serve him ; it shall be
accounted to the Lord for a generation.

his righteousness unto a people that
shall be born, that he hath done this.

ZUc psalter
3 I am weary of my crying ; my throat
is dried : nunc eyes fail while I wait fot
my God.
4 They that hate me without a cause
arc more than the hairs of mine head :
they that would destroy me. being mine
enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I
restored that which I took not away.
5 O God, thou knowest my foolishness ;
and my sins are not hid from thee.
6 Let not them that wait on thee, O
Lord God of hosts, be ashamed for my
^ake : let not those that seek thee be
confounded for my sake, O God of
Israel.
7 Because for thy sake I have borne
reproach ; shame hath covered my face.
8 I am become a stranger unto my
brethren, and an alien unto my mother's
children.
9 For the zeal of thine house hath
eaten me up ; and the reproaches of them
that reproached thee are fallen upon
me.
10 When I wept, and chastened my
soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.
1 1 I made sackcloth also my garment ;
and I became a proverb to them.
12 They that sit in the gate speak
against me ; and I was the song o( the
drunkards.
[3 But as for me, my prayer is unto
thee, O Lord, in an acceptable time: ()
God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear
me, in the truth of thy salvation.
14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let
me not sink : let me be delivered from
them that hate me, and out of the deep
waters.
15 Let not the watcrflood overflow me,
neither let the deep swallow me up, and
let not the pit shut her mouth upon
me.
16 Hear me, O Lord j for thy loving-
kindness is good : turn unto me accord-
ing to the multitude of thy tender mercies.
17 And hide not tl from thy
servant : foi I am in troul 1 me

22 But 1 am poor and sorrowful : let
thy salvation, 0 God, set me up on

23 I will praise the name of God with
a song, and will magnify him with thanks-
giving.
24 This also shall please the Lord
better than an ox or bullock that hath
horns and hoofs.
25 The humble shall see this, and be
glad : and your heart shall live that seek
God.
26 For the Lord heareth the poor,
and despiscth not his prisoners.
27 Let the heaven and earth praise
him. the seas, and every thing that moveth
therein.
28 For God will save /ion, and will
build the cities of Judah: that they may
dwell there, and have it in possession.
29 The seed also of his servants shall
inherit it: and they that love his name
shall dwell therein.
GLORY be to the Father, and to the
Son : and to the I loly Ghost ;
As it was in the beginning, is now.
and ever shall be: world without end.
