PREFACE
THE preparation of a new Hymnal for the use of the churches was
committed to The Board of PubHcation and Sabbath-School Work
by the General Assembly of 1889. There were difficulties in the way of
the undertaking, and even the beginnings of the work had then to be put
off. To the Assembly of 1893, for the first time, and again in 1894,
the Board reported the progress made in it, and the methods by which
it was advancing, and, finally, in this present year, laid before the Assembly
the proof-sheets of the Hymnal, then substantially complete. After its
examination of these, the Standing Committee on Publication and Sabbath-
School Work reported the following resolution, which the Assembly unani-
mously adopted by a rising vote : —
" Resolved, That we heartily recommend the new Hymnal, now approaching com-
pletion, to our churches, and express the earnest hope for the general adoption of
this collection as the book of praise throughout our Church ; and that we record our
grateful appreciation of the labors of the Committee in charge of its preparation."
And now that the book is complete and approved, it must stand as the
best exponent of the aims kept in view during its preparation, — to produce
a manual of the Church's praise, a treasury of things new and old, chosen for
actual service, expressive in some degree of the devotional feeling and also
of the culture of God's people.
In the selection of hymns, those endeared to the Church by proved
fitness have been given the first place ; and the whole field of modern
hymnody has been laboriously gleaned. The hymns are intended to cover
every side of Church worship and work, and of Christian experience, and
are so classified as to be most readily at hand to meet the occasion. Great
pains have been taken with the state of the text. The Editor has in all
cases sought to have before him the author's original text, and the author-
ized texts also of such amendments and revisions as seemed worthy of
attention. As far as possible, the hymns are printed as their authors wrote
them. When any changes have been adopted, the fact has invariably been
noted beneath the hymn, partly in the interests of intelligent hymnology,
partly also for honesty's sake, that no man's name be put to anything which
he did not write. These foot-notes, with very few exceptions, are records of
a personal inspection of the facts recorded, and furnish an interesting and,
it is believed, trustworthy history of the hymn.
In the choice of tunes by the Committee, and in the revision of the
harmonies by the Musical Editor, the guiding thought has been to adapt
the book for use in congregational singing. Enough of music familiar
preface
and simple is included to enable any of our congregations to make
immediate use of the book. Beyond that is a great body of tunes, just
as available when they shall be learned, and having the charm of freshness :
some, no doubt, simpler and more readily caught; none, it is believed,
beyond the reach of a congregation of moderate culture, with the aid
of a choir. There are great differences among congregations in the
matter of musical culture, and it is fitting that the needs of all should
be thought of, and not left unprovided for. It may be best in some
churches that certain of the more difficult tunes shall be introduced as
anthems by the choir, the congregation following only at first, but in that
way learning to sing them. Among the new tunes are more than fifty
specially written for this book, and, both for excellence and usefulness,
making a real addition to its resources.
Each of the hymns in this collection is set to its own tune, and very
careful thought has been given to securing music not merely adapted to the
rhythm of the hymn, but giving the proper musical expression to its senti-
ment and spiritual quality. Td many of the hymns an alternate tune has
been added, chosen with a view of bringing the hymn into use on occasions
or under conditions when the first tune may not conveniently be used.
Sometimes an alternate tune is designated by a cross-reference to its place in
the book. And very often, when no alternate tunes are indicated in either
way, the tunes are so grouped that at any given opening of the book there
may be two or three tunes available for any one of the h}-mns. The method
of printing the alternate tune to a hymn on that part of the opposite page
nearest to the words themselves will, it is thought, commend itself to singers
from its greater convenience in actual use. It is the usage of many of our
churches to sing the Amen at the close of each hymn, and the proper
chords have been provided for such purpose.
In making up the pages of the Hymnal, it is not merely the grace o\
beauty which has been sought. The openness and ampleness so grateful to
the eye mean also that every hymn and tune has had given to it whatever
space it properly called for, so that the notes and text may be distinct and
clear, every syllable of the first verse, as far as may be, printed under its
own proper note, and, best of all, that the number of verses in a hymn may
be determined for their own sake, and not by mere mechanical considera-
tions of space.
The names of the tunes, unless for good reason to the contrary, are those
originally given them when first published, and the dates set to them are the
dates of first publication. The date set to the hymn is the earliest date
obtainable, ordinarily that of its composition, in some cases necessaril\' 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),
V
preface
before a date is used where exact certainty is unobtainable. Where dates,
either of hymns or tunes, are altogether wanting, the date of the author's
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).
With such suggestions of purpose and method, there remains only the
pleasant duty of giving thanks. The Editor would express his own to all
who have answered his inquiries or otherwise lightened his labors, but
especially to Mr. James Warrington, who has, in a way not less kindly
than painstaking, given him the benefit of a special knowledge in the diffi-
cult matter of properly ascribing and dating the tunes in this collection.
Among the many composers who have set to music the hymns assigned
them by the Committee, special acknowledgments are due for courtesies
received at their hands to the Musical Editor, William W. Gilchrist, Mus.
Doc, to George William Warren, Mus. Doc, Uzziah C. Burnap, the Rev.
William P. Merrill, and the Rev. John Anlcetell, A. M. Thanks are given
also to the following owners of copyright tunes who have freely granted
the use of them: Mr. Frederick H. Cheeswright for No. 181, Mr. William
G. Fischer for No. 707, the Rev. John S. B. Hodges, S.T. D., for No. 331,
the Rev. Charles L. Hutchins, D.D., for No. 642, the Rev. Robert Lowry,
D. D., for No. 501, Mr. Lewis H. Redner for No. 178, Mr. Samuel A. Ward
for No. 622, Mr. James Warrington for No. 330, Mr. Richard S. Willis for
Nos. 155 and 174, the Rev. J. Ireland Tucker, D. D., and Mr. William W.
Rousseau for Nos. 86, 354, and 66y.
The Committee would also acknowledge the favor of the following
owners of the copyright in freely granting permission to use copyrighted
hymns : Messrs. Houghton, Mifflin and Co. for the hymns of Dr. Holmes
and of Mr. Whittier ; Miss Longfellow for the hymns of the late Rev. Sam-
uel Longfellow; Messrs. E. P. Dutton and Co. and the family of the late
Bishop Brooks for his Christmas Hymn; Mrs. Hervey D. Ganse for No. 85 ;
the Rev. Robert Lowry, D. D., for No. 501 ; and Judge F. W. Henshaw for
No. 685. And thanks are given to the following authors for their cordial
permission to use their hymns here included : the Rev. John Anketell, A. M.,
Bishop A. Cleveland Coxe, D.D., LL. D., the Rev. William H. Furness,
D. D., LL.D., the Rev. Washington Gladden, D. D., the Rev. Joseph H.
Gilmore, D. D., Thomas MacKellar, Ph. D., the Rev. Daniel March, D. D.,
the Rev. S. Dryden Phelps, D. D., Rossiter W. Raymond, Ph. D., the Rev.
Daniel C. Roberts, the Rev. Ernest W. Shurtleff, the Rev. Samuel F. Smith,
D.D., the late Rev. Alexander R. Thompson, D. D., and the Rev. Aaron
R. Wolfe
And now the Committee would close its labors in the earnest hope that
this book may add something, not less to the spirituality than to the hearti-
ness of God's praise.

Kingdoms and thrones to God belong
Lamp of our feet, whereby we trace .
Lead, kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom
Lead on, O King Eternal ....
Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us
Lead us, O Father, in the paths of peace
Let children hear the mighty deeds ,
Let us with a gladsome mind . .

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 ; 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.
€j)e €en Commantiment^
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
maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates ; for in six days
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
which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
VI. Thou shalt not kill.
VII. Thou shalt not commit adultery.
VIII. Thou shalt not steal.
IX. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. .
X. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neigh-
bor's wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any
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
the prophets.
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, and buried ; He descended into hell ;* the third day He rose again from the
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.
I believe in the Holy Ghost ; the holy Catholic Church ; the Communion of
Saints ; the Forgiveness of sins ; the Resurrection of the body ; and the Life ever-
lasting. Amen.
* i. e. Continued in the state of the dead and under the power of death until the third day.

LET Israel hope in the Lonl : for with
the Lord there is mercy, and with Him is
plenteous redemption.
My voice shalt Thou hear in the morn-
ing, O Lord ; in the morning will I direct
my prayer unto Thee, and will look up.
I WILL come into Thy house in the
multitude of Thy mercy ; and in Thy fear
will I worship toward Thy holy temple.
Let the words of my mouth, and the
meditation of my heart, be acceptable in
Thy sight, O Lord, my strength and my
Redeemer.
OUR help is in the name of the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.
Where two or three are gathered to-
gether in My name, there am I in the
midst of them.
IF we say that we have no sin, we de-
ceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
If we confess our sins. He is faithful
and just to forgive us our sins, and to
cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
WE have not an High Priest which can-
not be touched with the feeling of our
infirmities ; but was in all points tempted
like as we are, yet without sin. Let us
therefore come boldly unto the throne of
grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find
grace to help in time of need.
I WILL arise and go to my father, and
will say unto him. Father, I have sinned
against heaven, and before thee, and am
no more worthy to be called thy son.
Enter not into judgment with Thy ser-
vant : for in Thy sight shall no man liv-
ing be justified.
THE sacrifices of God are a broken
spirit : a broken and a contrite heart, O
God. Thou wilt not despise.
Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and
put your trust in the Lord.
RETURN unto thy rest, O my soul;
for the Lord hath dealt bountifully with
thee.
Abide with us : for it is toward evening,
and the day is far spent.
LORD, I cry unto Thee : make haste
unto me ; give ear unto my voice, when I
cry unto Thee.
Let my prayer be set forth before Thee
as incense ; and the lifting up of my hands
as the evening sacrifice.
THE hour cometh, and now is, when
the true worshippers shall worship the
Father in si)irit and in truth : for the Fa-
ther seeketh such to worship Him. God
is a Spirit : and they that worship Him
must worship Him in spirit and in truth.
BLESSED is the man whom Thou
choosest, and causest to approach unto
Thee, that he may dwell in Thy courts : we
shall be satisfied with the goodness of
Thy house, even of Thy holy temple.
THE Lord is in His holy temple : let
all the earth keep silence before Him.
O worship the Lord in the beauty of
holiness : fear before Him all the earth.
IT is a good thing to give thanks unto
the Lord, and to sing praises unto Thy
name, O Most High : to show forth Thy
loving-kindness in the morning, and
faithfulness every night.
Delight thyself also in the Lord ;
He shall give thee the desires of thine
heart.
Thy
and
THE Lord is nigh unto all them that
call upon Him, to all that call upon Him
in tnith. He will fulfil the desire of them
that fear Him : He also will hear their cry,
and will save them.
O Thou that hearest prayer, unto Thee
shall all flesh come.

Daily doth our sins remove ;
Daily, far as east from west,
Lifts the burden from the breast ;
Gives unbought to those who pray
Strength to stand in evil day.
3 Let our prayers each morn prevail,
That these gifts may never fail ;
And, as we confess the sin
And the tempter's power within.
Every morning, for the strife.
Feed us with the Bread of Life.
4 As the morning light returns.
As the sun with splendor burns,
Teach us still to turn to Thee,
Ever-blessed Trinity,
With our hands our hearts to raise.
In unfailing prayer and praise.

2 So freshly falls Thy heaven-sent grace,
As morning's gladdening breath j
Gives light to all to seek Thy face,
And guides in life and death.
3 O holy light ! O light of God !
O light unseen below,
Which fills the courts of Thine abode,
Which there the blest shall know !
4 Swift comes the hour when none can toil,
Short is the rugged way :
Teach us our lamps to fill with oil,
Whilst it is called to-day.
5 Then we shall see that glorious light
Which to the saints is given,
So sweet, so fair, so passing bright.
The eternal morn of heaven.
6 O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
O holy One in Three,
Grant us, with all Thy glorious host.
To share that morn with Thee.

Each present day thy last esteem ; And hast refreshed me whilst I slept :
Improve thy talent with due care ; Grant, Lord, when I from death shall wake.
For the great day thyself prepare. I may of endless light partake.
3 By influence of the light Divine
Let thy own light to others shine ;
Reflect all heaven's propitious rays
In ardent love and cheerful praise.

And with the angels bear thy part,
Who all night long, unwearied, sing

2 Come, holy Sun of heavenly love, 4 May faith, deep rooted in the soul,
Shower down Thy radiance from above, Subdue our flesh, our minds control,
And to our inward hearts convey May guile depart, and discord cease,
The Holy Spirit's cloudless ray. And all within be joy and peace.
3 May He our actions deign to bless,
And loose the bonds of wickedness ;
From sudden falls our feet defend,
And bring us to a prosperous end.
5 O hallowed be the approaching day ;
Let meekness be our morning ray ;
And faithful love our noonday light ;
And hope our sunset, calm and bright.

1 NEW every morning is the love
Our wakening and uprising prove ;
Through sleep and darkness safely brought.
Restored to life, and power, and thought.
2 New mercies, each returning day.
Hover around us while we pray ;
New perils past, new sins forgiven.
New thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.
3 If, on our daily course, our mind
Be set to hallow all we find.
New treasures still, of countless price,
God will provide for sacrifice.
4 The trivial round, the common task,
Will furnish all we ought to ask ;
Room to deny ourselves, a road
To bring us daily nearer God.
5 Only, O Lord, in Thy dear love.
Fit us for perfect rest above,
And help us, this and every day,
To live more nearly as we pray.

2 To Thee, whose word, the fount of light unsealing.
When hill and dale in thickest darkness lay,
Awoke bright rays across the dim earth stealing,
And bade the even and morn complete the day.
3 Look from the tower of heaven, and send to cheer us
Thy light and truth, to guide us onward still ;
Still let Thy mercy, as of old, be near us.
And lead us safely to Thy holy hill.
4 In vain to labor, unless Thou be with him,
Man goeth forth through all the weary day;
In vain his strife, in vain his toil unceasing.
Unless Thy staff bring comfort on his way.
5 Thou, who hast made the north and south, watch o'er us ;
Thou, in whose Name the lonely ones rejoice,
Still let Thy cloudy pillar glide before us,
Still let us listen for Thy warning voice.
6 So, when that morn of endless light is waking,
And shades of evil from its sjilendors flee,
Safe may we rise, the earth's dark breast forsaking,
Through all the long bright day to dwell with Thee.

Each endeavor,
When thine aim is good and true ;
But that He may ever thwart thee,

When thou evil wouldst pursue.

He unfoldeth
Every fault that lurks within ;
Every stain of shame glossed over
Can discover,
And discern each deed of sin.
4 Mayest thou on life's last morrow,
Free from sorrow,
Pass away in slumber sweet ;
And, released from death's dark sadness,
Rise in gladness,

2 As Christ, upon the cross
In death reclined.
Into His Father's hands
His parting soul resigned ;
3 So now herself my soul
Would wholly give
Into His sacred charge,
In whom all spirits live ;
13 HOLY TRINITY CM
4 So now beneath His eye
Would calmly rest,
Without a wish or thought
Abiding in the breast,
5 Save that His will be done,
Whate'er betide ;
Dead to herself, and dead
In Him to all beside.
6 Thus would I live ; yet now
Not I, but He
In all His power and love
Henceforth alive in me,
7 One sacred Trinity,
One Lord Divine ;
Myself for ever His,
And He for ever mine !

2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep 4 If some poor wandering child of Thine
My wearied eyeUds gently steep, Have spurned to-day the voice Divine,
Be my last thought, how sweet to rest Now, Lord, the gracious work begin ;
For ever on my Saviour's breast. Let him no more lie down in sin.
3 Abide with me from morn till eve,
For without Thee I cannot live ;
Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without Thee I dare not die.
5 Watch by the sick ; enrich the poor
With blessings from Thy boundless store ;
Be every mourner's sleep to-night,
Like infants' slumbers, pure and light.
6 Come near and bless us when we wake,
Ere through the world our way we take.
Till in the ocean of Thy love
We lose ourselves in heaven above.

The ill that I this day have done ; And with sweet sleep mine eyelids close ;
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 ;
To die, that this vile body 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.
6 O when shall I, in endless day
For ever chase dark sleep away,
And hymns with the supernal choir
Incessant sing, and never tire !
Bishop Thomas Ken, 1693 (text of 1709)
18 (ABENDS) L. M.
1 O LIGHT of life, O Saviour dear,
Before we sleep bow down Thine ear :
Through dark and day, o'er land and sea.
We have no other hope but Thee.
2 Oft from Thy royal road we part,
Lost in the mazes of the heart :
Our lamps put out, our course forgot,
We seek for God, and find Him not.
What sudden sunbeams cheer our sight !
What dawning risen upon the night !
Thou giv'st Thyself to us, and we
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.
Praise God, our Maker and our Friend ;
Praise Him through time, till time shall end ;
Till psalm and song His Name adore
Through heaven's great day of evermore.
Francis T. Palgrave, 1865

2 The joys of day are over :
I lift my heart to Thee,
And call on Thee that sinless
The hours of gloom may be.
O Jesus, make their darkness light,
And save me through the coming
night.
3 The toils of day are over :
I raise the hymn to Thee,
And ask that free from peril
The hours of fear may be.
O Jesus, keep me in Thy sight,
And guard me through the coming
night.
4 Lighten mine eyes, O Saviour,
Or sleep in death shall I,
And he, my wakeful tempter.
Triumphantly shall cry,
" He could not make their darkness light,
Nor guard them through the hours of
night."
5 Be Thou my soul's Preserver,
O God, for Thou dost know
How many are the perils
Through which I have to go.
Lover of men, O hear my call,
And guard and save me from them all.

Our changeful lives are ebbing to an end ;
Onward to darkness and to death we tend :
O Conqueror of the grave, be Thou our Guide,
Be Thou our Light in death's dark eventide ;
Then in our mortal hour will be no gloom,
No sting in death, no terror in the tomb.
<lJbcning
3 Thou, who in darkness walking didst appear
Upon the waves, and Thy disciples cheer,
Come, Lord, in lonesome days, when storms assail,
And earthly hopes and human succors fail ;
When all is dark, may we behold Thee nigh,
And hear Thy voice, " Fear not, fur it is I."
4 The weary world is mouldering to decay,
Its glories wane, its pageants fade away :
In that last sunset, when the stars shall fall,
May we arise, awakened by Thy call.
With Thee, O Lord, for ever to abide
In that blest day which has no eventide.

2 Once more 'tis eventide, and we, 4 And none, O Lord, have perfect rest,
Oppressed with various ills, draw near : For none are wholly free from sin ;
What if Thy form we cannot see ? And they who fain would serve Thee best
We know and feel that Thou art here. Are conscious most of wrong within.
3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel : 5 O Saviour Christ, Thou too art Man,
For some are sick, and some are sad, Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried ;
And some have never loved Thee well. Thy kind but searching glance can scan
And some have lost the love they had ; 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.

2 Though the night be dark and dreary,
Darkness cannot hide from Thee ;
Thou art He who, never weary,
Watchest where Thy people be.
3 Though destruction walk around us,
Though the arrow past us fly,
Angel-guards from Thee surround us ;
We are safe if Thou art nigh.
4 Should swift death this night o'ertake us,
And our couch become our tomb.
May the mom in heaven awake us.
Clad in light and deathless bloom.

What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?

Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory?

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,
And trust in things Divine.
4 Let peace, O Lord, Thy peace, O 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.

2 Around the throne on high.
Where night can never be.
The white-robed harpers of the sky
Bring ceaseless hymns to Thee.
3 Too faint our anthems here ;
Too soon of praise we tire :
But O the strains, how full and clear,
Of that eternal choir !
4 Yet, Lord, to Thy dear will
If Thou attune the heart,
We in Thine angels' music still
May bear our lower part.
5 'Tis Thine each soul to calm,
Each wayward thought reclaim.
And make our life a daily psalm
Of glory to Thy Name.
6 A little while, and then
Shall come the glorious end ;
And songs of angels and of men
In perfect praise shall blend.

Would cleave from first to last ;
To Thee, through Jesus' merit,
For needful grace we come,
And trust that Thy good Spirit
Will guide us safely home.

3 What may be on the morrow
Our foresight cannot see ;
But be it joy or sorrow,
\\'e know it comes from Thee.
And nothing can take from us,
Where'er our steps may move,
The staff of Thy sure promise,
The shield of Thy true love.

2 On Thee my waking raptures dwell,
When crimson gleams the east adorn,
Thee, Victor of the grave and hell.
Thee, Source of life's eternal morn.
3 When noon her throne in light arrays,
To Thee my soul triumphant springs ;
Thee, throned in glory's endless blaze.
Thee, Lord of lords and King of kings.
O'er earth when shades of evening steal,
To death and Thee my thoughts I give ;
To death, whose power I soon shall feel,
To Thee, with whom I trust to live.

Great Creator of all good ;
Fill our souls with light Divine ;
Give us with our daily food
Blessings from Thy heavenly store,
Blessings rich for evermore.

Love undying for Thy Name ;

Spread afar our Maker's fame :

Clothe our souls with righteousness.

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

Unto my Saviour's face.

To Thy living waters lead me ;

And with grace and mercy feed me ,
Bless Thy word, that it may prove
Rich in fruits that Thou dost love.
Kindle Thou the sacrifice
That upon my lips is lying ;
Clear the shadows from mine eyes,
That, from every error flying.
No strange fire may in me glow
That Thine altar doth not know.
Let me with my heart to-day,
Holy, Holy, Holy, singing,
Rapt awhile from earth away.
All my soul to Thee up.springing,
Have a foretaste inly given
How they worship Thee in heaven.
Rest in me, and I in Thee ;

O reveal Thyself to me.
Blessed Love, who diedst to win me ;
Fed from 'I'hine exhaustless urn,
Pure and bright my lamp shall bum.
Hence all care, all vanity.

2 Now met to pray, and bless Thy Name, 4 In Thy blest kingdom we shall be
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 ;
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.
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.
6 O long-expected day, begin,
Dawn on these realms of woe and sin !
Break, morn of God, upon our eyes ;
And let the world's true Sun arise !

I SWEET is the work, my God, my King, 3 My heart shall triumph in my Lord,
To praise Thy Name, give thanks, and sing ; And bless His works, and bless His word :
To show Thy love by morning light. Thy works of grace, how bright they shine !
And talk of all Thy truth at night. How deep Thy counsels, how Divine !
2 Sweet is the day of sacred rest ;
No mortal care shall seize my breast :
O may my heart in tune be found.
Like David's harp of solemn sound.
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.

2 Come, bless the Lord, whose love assigns 4 This heavenly calm within the breast
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.
3 O that our thoughts and thanks may rise, 5 In holy duties let the day,
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 On thee, at the creation,
The light first had its birth ;
On thee, for our salvation,
Christ rose from depths of earth ;
On thee our Lord, victorious,
The Spirit sent from heaven ;
And thus on thee, most glorious,
A triple light was given.
3 Thou art a port protected
From storms that round us rise ;
A garden intersected
With streams of Paradise ;
Thou art a cooling fountain
In life's dry, dreary sand ;
From thee, like Pisgah's mountain,
We view our promised land.
4 To-day on weary nations
The heavenly manna falls :
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls.
Where gospel light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
5 New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We reach the rest remaining
To spirits of the blest.
To Holy Ghost be praises,
To Father, and to Son ;
The Church her voice upraises
To Thee, blest Three in One.

2 Sad and weary were our way,
Fainting oft beneath our load,
But for thee, thou blessed day,
Resting-place on life's rough road :
Here flow forth the streams of grace ;
Strengthened hence we run our race.
3 Great Creator, who this day
From Thy perfect work didst rest.
By the souls that own Thy sway
Hallowed be its hours and blest ;
Cares of earth aside be thrown.
This day given to heaven alone.
4 Saviour, who this day didst break
The dark prison of the tomb.
Bid my slumbering soul awake ;
Shine through all its sin and gloom
Let me, from my bonds set free,
Rise from sin, and live to Thee.
5 Blessed Spirit, Comforter,
Sent this day from Christ on high ;
Lord, on me Thy gifts confer,
Cleanse, illumine, sanctify :
All Thine influence shed abroad ;
Lead me to the truth of God.

Through the dear Redeemer's Name,
Show Thy reconciled face ;
Take away our sin and shame ;
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest this day in Thee.
3 Here we come Thy Name to praise,
Let us feel Thy presence near ;
May Thy glory meet our eyes,
While we in Thy house appear :
Here afford us, Lord, a taste
Of our everlasting feast.
4 May Thy gospel's joyful sound
Conquer sinners, comfort saints ;
May the fruits of grace abound,
Bring relief for all complaints :
Thus may all our Sabbaths prove
Till we join the Church above.

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.
4 Lord, be mine this prize to win ;
Guide me through a world of sin ;
Keep me by Thy saving grace ;
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, 0 shower them, Lord, on me.

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.
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 :

Their grateful hymns to raise,
Grant that our souls may join the lay,

How highly blest are they
Who in Thy temple always dwell.
And there Thy praise display.

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,
That to Thy dwelling lead. Is still reposed on Thee.

Eternal, bid Thy Spirit rest.
And make our secret soul to be
A temple pure, and worthy Thee :

When earth and heaven shall melt away,

Come Thou also down to me ;
Where we find Thee and adore Thee,
There a heaven on earth must be.
To my heart O enter Thou,
Let it be Thy temple now.
3 Here Thy praise is gladly chanted,
Here Thy seed is duly sown ;
Let my soul, where it is planted.
Bring forth precious sheaves alone ;
So that all I hear may be
Fruitful unto life in me.

Let Thy will be done indeed ;

While Thou dost Thy people feed.

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.

Help us Thy Name to sing.
Help us to praise :
Father, all-glorious.
O'er all victorious.
Come, and reign over us,
Ancient of days.
2 Come, Thou Incarnate Word,
Gird on Thy mighty sword,
Our prayer attend :
Come, and Thy people bless,
And give Thy word success ;
Spirit of holiness,
On us descend.

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 wlio 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 make.
Rev. Thomas T. Lynch, i?55
3 Come, Holy Comforter,
Thy sacred witness bear
In this glad hour:
Thou who almighty art,
Now nile in every heart,
And ne'er from us depart,
Spirit of power.
4 To the great One in Three
Eternal praises be
Hence evermore.
His sovereign majesty
May we in glory see,
And to eternity
Love and adore.

For evermore draw nigh ;
Accept each faithful vow.
And mark each suppliant sigh ;
In copious shower on all who pray,
Each holy day, Thy blessings pour.
4 Here may we gain from heaven
The grace which we implore ;
And may that grace, once given,
Be with us evermore.
Until that ilay when all the blest
To endless rest are called away.

The path of peace, which leads to Thee.
Rev. John Julian, 1874
Lord, we know not how to go,
Till a blessing Thou bestow.
Send some message from Thy word,
That may joy and peace afford ;
Let Thy Spirit now impart
Full salvation to each heart.
Comfort those who weep and mourn.
Let the time of joy return;
Heal the sick, the captive free.
Let us all rejoice in Thee.

2 O we would bless Thee for Thy ceaseless care,
And all Thy work from day to day declare :
Is not our life with hourly mercies crowned?
Does not Thine arm encircle us around?
3 Alas, unworthy of Thy boundless love,
Too oft with careless feet from Thee we rove ;
But now, encouraged by Thy voice, we come,
Returning sinners to a Father's home.
4 O by that Name in whom all fulness dwells,
O by that love which every love excels,
O by that blood so freely shed for sin,
Open blest mercy's gate, and take us in.

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 dark Through life's long day and death's dark

2 Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way ;
With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day :
Guard Thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,
That in this house have called upon Thy Name.
3 Grant us Thy peace, Lord, through the coming night ;
Turn Thou for us its darkness into light ;
From harm and danger keep Thy children free,
For dark and light are both alike to Thee.
4 Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life.
Our balm in sorrow, and our stay in strife ;
Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease.
Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace.

1 Almighty God, Thy word is cast
Like seed upon the ground ;
O may it grow in humble hearts,
And righteous fruits abound.
2 Let not the foe of Christ and man
This holy seed remove.
But give it root in praying souls
To bring forth fruits of love.
Let not the world's deceitful cares
The rising plant destroy,
But may it, in converted minds.
Produce the fruits of joy.
Let not Thy word, so kindly sent
To raise us to Thy throne,
Return to Thee, and sadly tell
That we reject Thy Son.

2 The hope of heaven's eternal days 4 O wondrous peace, in thought to dwell
Absorbs not all the heart On excellence Divine ;
That gives Thee glory, love, and praise, To know that nought in man can tell
For being what Thou art. How fair Thy beauties shine.
3 For Thou art God, the One, the same, 5 O Thou, above all blessing blest,
O'er all things high and bright ; O'er thanks exalted far,
And round us, when we speak Thy Name, Thy very greatness is a rest
There spreads a heaven of light. To weaklings as we are ;
6 For when we feel the praise of Thee
A task beyond our powers,
We say, " A perfect God is He,
And He is fully ours."

2 Heaven is still with glory ringing,
Earth takes up the angels' cry,
" Holy, Holy, Holy," singing,
" Lord of hosts, the Lord Most High."
With His seraph train before Him,
With His holy Church below,
Thus conspire we to adore Him,
Bid we thus our anthem flow :
3 " Lord, Thy glory fills the heaven,
Earth is with its fulness stored ;
Unto Thee be glory given.
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord ! "
Thus Thy glorious Name confessing,
We adopt Thine angels' cry,

2 Since by Thee were all things made,
And in Thee do all things live,
Be to Thee all honor paid ;
Praise to Thee let all things give,
Singing everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity.
3 Thousands, tens of thousands, stand,
Spirits blest, before Thy throne,
Speeding thence at Thy command ;
And, when Thy behests are done,
Singing everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity.
4 Cherubim and seraphim
Veil their faces with their wings ;
Eyes of angels are too dim
To behold the King of kings,
While they sing eternally
To the blessed Trinity.
5 Thee apostles, prophets Thee,
Thee the noble martyr band.
Praise with solemn jubilee.
Thee the Church in every land ;

2 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.
3 O Thou, who canst not slumber,
Whose light grows never pale,
Teach us aright to number
Our years before they fail ;
On us Thy mercy lighten.
On us Thy goodness rest,
And let Thy Spirit brighten
The hearts Thyself hast blessed.
4 Lord, crown our faith's endeavor
With beauty and with grace.
Till, clothed in light for ever,
We see Thee face to face :
A joy no language measures ;
A fountain brimming o'er;
An endless flow of pleasures ;
An ocean without shore.

Ocean floods have lift their roar ; Are the perfect verity :

2 Their golden crowns they fling
Before His throne of Hght,
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 1
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 The God ol Abraham praise,
At whose supreme command
From earth I rise, and seek the joys
At His right hand :
I all on earth forsake,
Its wisdom, fame, and power ;
And Him my only portion make,
My Shield and Tower.
3 He by Himself hath sworn,
I on His oath depend ;
I shall, on eagle's wings upborne,
To heaven ascend :
I shall behold His face,
I shall His power adore,
And sing the wonders of His grace
For evermore.
4 There dwells the Lord our King,
The Lord our Righteousness,
Triumphant o'er the world and sin,
The Prince of Peace ;
On Zion's sacred height
His kingdom still maintains,
And, glorious with His saints in light,
For ever reigns.
5 The God who reigns on high
The great archangels sing ;
And, " Holy, Holy, Holy," cry,
" Almighty King !
Who was, and is, the same.
And evermore shall be ;
Jehovah, Father, Great I AM !
We worship Thee."
6 The whole triumphant host
Give thanks to God on high ;
" Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost !'
They ever cry :
Hail, Abraham's God and mine !
I join the heavenly lays ;
All might and majesty are Thine,
And endless praise.

So on earth Thy will be done.

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
Of the declining year ;
He bids the sun cut short his race,
And wintry days appear.
5 He sends His word, and melts the snow ;
The fields no longer mourn ;
He calls the warmer gales to blow,
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.

How beautiful Thy mercy-seat,
In depths of burning light !
2 How dread are Thine eternal years,
O Everlasting Lord,
By prostrate spirits, day and night,
Incessantly adored !
4 Yet I may love Thee too, O Lord,
Almighty as Thou art ;
For Thou hast stooped to ask of me
The love of my poor heart.
5 No earthly father loves like Thee,
No mother half so mild
Bears and forbears, as Thou hast done
With me, Thy sinful child.
3 O how I fear Thee, living God, 6 Father of Jesus, love's Reward !
With deepest, tendercst fears ; What rapture will it be.
And worship Thee with trembling hope, Prostrate before Thy throne to lie.
And penitential tears. And gaze and gaze on Thee.

2 Give to the Lord of lords renown ; 4 He fills the sun with morning light ;
The King of kings with glory crown : He bids the moon direct the night :
His mercies ever shall endure, His mercies ever shall endure,
When lords and kings are known no more. When suns and moons shall shine no more.
3 He built the earth. He spread the sky, 5 He sent His Son with power to save
And fixed the starry lights on high : From guilt, and darkness, and the grave :
Wonders of grace to God belong ; Wonders of grace to God belong ;
Repeat His mercies in your song. Repeat His mercies in your song.
6 Through this vain world He guides our feet,
And leads us to His heavenly seat :
His mercies ever shall endure,
When this vain world shall be no more.

And all the planets in their turn,
Confirm the tidings as they roll.
And spread the truth from pole to pole.
What though in solemn silence all
Move round the dark terrestrial ball ?
What though nor real voice nor sound
Amid their radiant orbs be found ?
3 Soon as the evening shades prevail.
The moon takes up the wondrous tale,
And nightly to the listening earth
Repeats the story of her birth ;

And utter forth a glorious voice ;
For ever singing, as they shine,

Resist His will, distrust His care.
Or murmur at His wise decrees,
Or doubt His royal promises?
3 The Lord is King ! Child of the dust,
The Judge of all the earth is just ;
Holy and true are all His ways :
Let every creature speak His praise.
O when His wisdom can mistake.
His might decay, His love forsake,
Then may His children cease to sing,
"The Lord Omnipotent is King !"
Alike pervaded by His eye,
All parts of His dominion lie ;
This world of ours, and worlds unseen.
And thin the boundary between.
One Lord, one empire, all secures ;
He reigns, and life and death are yours :
Through earth and heaven one song
shall ring,
"The Lord Omnipotent is King ! "

2 His sovereign power, without our aid.
Made us of clay, and formed us men ;
And when like wandering sheep we strayed
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 ?
4 We'll crowd Thy gates with thankful
songs,
High as the heavens our voices raise ;
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
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 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.
Strings and voices, hands and hearts,
In the concert bear your parts ;
All that breathe, your Lord adore.
Praise Him, praise Him, evermore.
Rev. Henry F. Lyte, 1S34
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.
3 Heaven and earth must pass away, 6 Borne upon their latest breath,
Songs of praise shall crown that day : Songs of praise shall conquer death ;
God will make new heavens, new earth. Then, amidst eternal joy,
Songs of praise shall hail their birth. Songs of praise their powers employ.

Mortal eye can scan,
Can it be that Thou regardest
Songs of sinful man ?
Can we feel that Thou art near us,
And wilt hear us?
Yea, we can.
3 Yea, we know Thy love rejoices
O'er each work of Thine ;
Thou didst ears and hands and voices
For Thy praise combine ;
Craftsman's art and music's measure
For Thy pleasure
Didst design.
4 Here, great God, to-day we offer
Of Thine own to Thee ;
And for Thine acceptance proffer,
All unworthily.
Hearts and minds, and hands and voices,
In our choicest

Thine shall ever be.

Of the best that Thou hast given

2 O tell of His might, O sing of His grace,
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space.
His chariots of wrath the deep thunder-clouds form,
And dark is His path on the wings of the storm.
3 The earth with its store of wonders untold,
Almighty, Thy power hath founded of old ;
Hath stablished it fast by a changeless decree,
And round it hath cast, like a mantle, the sea.
4 Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air ; it shines in the light ;
It streams from the hills ; it descends to the plain ;
And sweetly distils in the dew and the rain.
5 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail.
In Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail ;
Thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend !
6 O measureless Might ! Ineffable Love !
While angels delight to hymn Thee above,
The humbler creation, though feeble their lays.
With true adoration shall lisp to Thy praise.

Till all that are distressed
From my example comfort take,
And charm their griefs to rest.
3 O magnify the Lord with me,

When in distress to Him I called,

2 Under the shadow of Thy throne
Thy saints have dwelt secure ;
Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
And our defence is sure.
3 Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting Thou art God,
To endless years the same.

1 O GOD, my Strength and Fortitude,
Of force I must love Thee ;
Thou art my Castle and Defence
In my necessity.
2 The Lord Jehovah is my God,
My Rock, my Strength, my Wealth ;
My strong Deliverer, and my Trust,
My spirit's only Health.
3 In my distress I sought my God,
I sought Jehovah's face :
My cry before Him came; He heard
Out of His holy place.
5 The busy tribes of flesh and blood,
With all their lives and cares,
Are carried downwards by Thy flood,
And lost in following years.
6 Time, like an ever-rolling stream.
Bears all its sons away ;
They fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
7 Our God, our Help in ages past ;
Our Hope for years to come ;
Be Thou our Guard while troubles last.
And our eternal Home.
Rev. Isaac Walts, 1719
And underneath His feet He cast
The darkness of the sky.
On cherub and on cherubim
Full royally He rode,
.\nd on the wings of mighty winds
Came flying all abroad.
The voice of God did thunder high,
The lightnings answered keen ;
The channels of the deep were bared,
The world's foundations seen.
The Lord descended from above
And bowed the heavens most high,
Thomas
.\nd so delivered He my soul :
Who is a rock but He?
He liveth — blessed be my Rock ;
My God exalted be.

O Thou that hearest prayer, descend,
And still be found the sinner's Friend.
3 How blest Thy saints ! how safely led,

Saviour of all in earth and sea.
How happy they who rest in Thee !

1 HIGH in the heavens, Eternal God,
Thy goodness in full glory shines ;
Thy truth shall break through every cloud
That veils and darkens Thy designs.
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.
Evening and morning hymn Thy praise,
And earth Thy bounty wide displays.
5 The year is with Thy goodness crowned ;
Thy clouds drop wealth the world around ;
Through Thee the deserts laugh and sing,
And nature smiles, and owns her King.
6 Lord, on our souls Thine influence pour ;
The moral waste within restore :
O let Thy love our spring-tide be.
And make us all bear fruit to Thee.
Rev. Henry F. Lyle, 1834; verse i, 1. i, alt.
My God, how excellent Thy grace,
Whence all our hope and comfort spring !
The sons of .Adam in distress
Fly to the shadow of Thy wing.
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.

2 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,
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 :
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.
4 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.

2 Praise, my soul, the God that sought thee.
Wretched wanderer, far astray ;
Found thee lost, and kindly brought thee
From the paths of death away :
Praise, with love's devoutest feeling,
Him who saw thy guilt-born fear,
And, the light of hope revealing,
Bade the blood-stained cross appear.
3 Lord, this bosom's ardent feeling
Vainly would my lips express :
Low before Thy footstool kneeling,
Deign Thy suppliant's prayer to bless :
Let Thy grace, my soul's chief treasure,
Love's pure flame within me raise ;
And, since words can never measure,
Let my life show forth Thy praise.

2 Thy word is love ; in lines of gold 5 Thy chastisements are love ; more deep
There mercy prints its trace ; They stamp the seal Divine,
In nature we Thy steps behold, And by a sweet compulsion keep
The gospel shows Thy face. Our spirits nearer Thine.
3 Thy ways are love J though they transcend 6 Thy heaven is the abode of Love :
Our feeble range of sight, O blessed Lord, that we [move,
lliey wind, through darkness, to their end May there, when time's deep shades re-
in everlasting light. Be gathered home to Thee :
4 Thy thoughts are love ; and Jesus is 7 There with Thy resting saints to fall
The living voice they find :
His love lights up the vast abyss
Of the eternal Mind.

2 O love of God, how deep and great !
Far deeper than man's deepest hate ;
Self-fed, self-kindled like the light,
Changeless, eternal, infinite.
3 O heavenly love, how precious still,
In days of weariness and ill,
In nights of pain and helplessness,
To heal, to comfort, and to bless !
4 O wide-embracing, wondrous love !
We read thee in the sky above,
We read thee in the earth below.
In seas that swell, and streams that flow.
5 We read thee best in Him who came
To bear for us the cross of shame ;
Sent by the Father from on high.
Our life to live, our death to die.
6 We read thy power to bless and save.
E'en in the darkness of the grave ;
Still more in resurrection light,
We read the fulness of thy might.
7 O love of God, our shield and stay
Through all the perils of our way !
Eternal love, in thee we rest,
For ever safe, for ever blest.

2 In darkness willingly I strayed ;
I sought Thee, yet from Thee I rov'^ed ;
For wide my wandering thoughts were
spread ;
Thy creatures more than Thee I loved ;
And now, if more at length I see, 4
'Tis through Thy light, and comes from
Thee.
3 Uphold me in the doubtful race,
Nor suffer me again to stray ;
Johann .Sclieffler, 1657
128 (WINCHESTER NEW) L. M.
1 O RENDER thanks to God above,
The Fountain of eternal love.
Whose mercy firm through ages past
Has stood, and shall for ever last.
2 Who can His mighty deeds express,
Not only vast but numberless?
What mortal eloquence can raise
His tribute of immortal praise?
3 Extend to me that favor, Lord,
Thou to Thy chosen dost afford ;
Strengthen my feet, with steady pace
Still to press forward in Thy way ;
My soul and flesh, O Lord of might.
Fill, satiate with Thy heavenly light.
Thee will I love, my Joy, my Crown ;
Thee will I love, my Lord, my God ;
Thee will I love, beneath Thy frown
Or smile. Thy sceptre or Thy rod.
What though my flesh and heart decay?
Thee shall I love in endless day.
Tr. Rev. John Wesley, 1739: verse 1, IL 5, f>, alt.
When Thou return'st to set them free,
Let Thy salvation visit me.
4 O may I worthy prove to see
Thy saints in full prosperity.
That I the joyful choir may join,
And count Thy people's triumph mine.
5 Let Israel's God be ever blessed,
His Name eternally confessed :
Let all His saints, with one accord.
Sing loud .Amens ; praise ye the Lord.

2 High as the heavens are raised
Above the ground we tread,
So far the riches of His grace
Our highest thoughts exceed.
3 His power subdues our sins,
And His forgiving love,
Far as the east is from the west,
Doth all our guilt remove.
4 The pity of the Lord
To those that fear His Name
Is such as tender parents feel ;
He knows our feeble frame.
5 Our days are as the grass.
Or like the morning flower ;
If one sharp blast sweep o'er the field,
It withers in an hour.
6 But Thy compassions, Lord,
To endless years endure ;
And children's children ever find
Thy words of promise sure.

From His own altar brought,
To touch our lips, our minds inspire.
And wing to heaven our thought !

And His salvation ours ;

With all our ransomed powers.

Stand up, and bless His glorious Name,

2 Let the ransomed thus rejoice,
Gathered out of every land,
As the people of His choice,
Plucked from the destroyer's hand.
3 In the wilderness astray,
Hither, thither, while they roam,
Hungry, fainting by the way,
Far from refuge, shelter, home :
4 Then unto the Lord they cry ;
He inclines a gracious ear.
Sends deliverance from on high.
Rescues them from all their fear.
5 To a pleasant land He brings,
Where the vine and olive grow,
Where from flowery hills the springs
Through luxuriant valleys flow.

2 In Thy dear cross a grace is found — 4 When Thou didst hang upon the tree,
It flows from every streaming wound — The quaking earth acknowledged Thee ;
Whose power our inbred sin controls, When Thou didst there yield up Thy
Breaks the firm bond, and frees our breath,
souls. The world grew dark as shades of death.
3 Thou didst create the stars of night ; 5 Now in the Father's glory high,
Yet Thou hast veiled in flesh Thy light, Great Conqueror, never more to die.
Hast deigned a mortal form to wear, Us by Thy mighty power defend,
A mortal's painful lot to bear. And reign through ages without end.

Lord of every lancf and nation,
Ancient of eternal days,
Sounded through the wide creation
Be Thy just and lawful praise.
Alleluia ! Amen.
For the grandeur of Thy nature —
Grand beyond a seraph's thought ;
For created works of power,
Works with skill and kindness wrought ;
Alleluia ! Amen.
But Thy rich, Thy free redemption.
Dark through brightness all along, —
Thought is poor, and poor expression,
Who dare sing that awful song?
Alleluia ! Amen.
Brightness of the Father's glory,
Shall Thy praise unuttered lie?
Fly, my tongue, such guilty silence.
Sing the Lord who came to die.
Alleluia ! Amen.
From the highest throne in glory.
To the cross of deepest woe.
All to ransom guilty captives, —
Flow my praise, for ever flow.
Alleluia ! Amen.
Go, return, Immortal Saviour,
Leave Thy footstool, take Thy throne,
Thence return, and reign for ever.
Be the kingdom all Thine own.
Alleluia ! Amen.

The highest place that heaven affords
Is His, is His by right,
The King of kings, and Lord of lords,
And heaven's eternal Light :
The joy of all who dwell above.
The joy of all below
To whom He manifests His love,
And grants His Name to know.
4 To them the cross, with all its shame,
With all its grace, is given ;
Their name an everlasting name,
Their joy the joy of heaven.
5 They suffer with their Lord below.
They reign with Him above ;
Their profit and their joy to know
The mystery of His love.

Though shame and death to Him ;
His people's hope. His people's wealth.

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 tnith begins to shine,
Then earthly vanities depart,
Then kindles love Divine.
O Jesus, Light of all below.
Thou Fount of life and fire,
Surpassing all the joys we know.
And all we can desire !
4 May every heart confess Thy Name,
And ever Thee adore ;

To seek Thee more and more.

And ever in our lives ex]")ress
The image of Thine own.

Assist me to proclaim, He sets the prisoner free ;
To spread through all the earth abroad, His blood can make the foulest clean.

What mortal tongue display? Left the bright realms of bliss,

In wonder dies away. Was ever love like this?

And gratitude and joy ;
Be Jesus our supreme delight,

With angels round the throne ;
Ten thousand thousand are theirtongues,
But all their joys are one.
2 " Worthy the Lamb that died," they cry,
" To be exalted thus : "
"Worthy the Lamb," our lips reply,
" For He was slain for us."
3 Jesus is worthy to receive
Honor and power Divine ;
And blessings, more than we can give,
Be, Lord, for ever Thine.
4 Let all that dwell above the sky,
And air, and earth, and seas,
Conspire to lift Thy glories high.
And speak Thine endless praise.

To bless the sacred Name
Of Him that sits upon the throne.
And to adore the Lamb.

At His voice creation
Sprang at once to sight,
All the angel faces,
All the hosts of light.
Thrones and dominations,
Stars upon their way,
All the heavenly orders
In their great array.
Humbled for a season,
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.

Shall return again.
With His Father's glory,
With His angel train ;
For all wreaths of empire
Meet upon His brow.
And our hearts confess Him
King of glory now.

And grace inspires our songs
4 Sing on your heavenly way,
Ye ransomed sinners, sing j
Sing on, rejoicing every day
In Christ the Eternal King.
5 Soon shall ye hear Him say,
" Ye blessed children, come ; "
Soon will He call you hence away.
And take His wanderers home.

1 FAIREST Lord Jesus,
Ruler of all nature,
O Thou of God and man the Son ;
Thee will I cherish,
Thee will I honor.
Thou, my soul's Glory, Joy and Crown.
2 Fair are the meadows,
Fairer still the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring :

Jesus is fairer,
Jesus is purer,
Who makes the woeful heart to sing.
3 Fair is the sunshine.
Fairer still the moonlight,
And all the twinkling, starry host :
Jesus shines brighter,
Jesus shines purer.
Than all the angels heaven can boast.

2 Thou art our Holy Lord,
The all- subduing Word,
Healer of strife :
Thou didst Thyself abase,
That from sin's deep disgrace
Thou mightest save our race,
And give us life.
3 Thou art the Great High Priest,
Thou hast prepared the feast
Of heavenly love :
While in our mortal pain,
None calls on Thee in vain :
Help Thou dost not disdain,
Help from above.
4 Ever be Thou our Guide,
Our Shepherd and our Pride,
Our Staff and Song :
Jesus, Thou Christ of God,
By Thy perennial word.
Lead us where Thou hast trod ;
Make our faith strong.
5 So now and till we die,
Sound we Thy praises high,
And joyful sing :
Infants, and the glad throng
Who to Thy Church belong.
Unite to swell the song
To Christ our King.

1 GLORY to God on high !
Let praises fill the sky;
Praise ye His Name :
Angels His Name adore.
Who all our sorrows bore ;
And saints cry evermore,
" Worthy the Lamb ! "
2 All they around the throne
Cheerfully join in one,
Praising His Name:
We who have felt His blood
Sealing our peace with God,
Spread His dear Name abroad ;
Worthy the Lamb 1
When unto Thee I flee,
Thou wilt my Refuge be,
Jesus, my Lord :
What need I now to fear,
What earthly grief or care.
Since Thou art ever near?
Jesus, my Lord.
Soon Thou wilt come again ;
I shall be happy then,
Jesus, my Lord :
Then Thine own face I Ml see,
Then I shall like Thee be,
Then evermore with Thee,
Jesus, my Lord.
1 Rev. James G. Deck, 184J
3 Join all the human race
Our Lord and God to bless,
Praise ye His Name :
In Him we will rejoice,
^Liking a cheerful noise,
And say with heart and voice,
" Worthy the Lamb ! "
4 Though we must change our place,
Our souls shall never cease
Praising His Name :
To Him we '11 tribute bring,
Laud Him, our gracious King,
And, without ceasing, sing,
"Worthy the Lamb !"

2 I 'd sing the precious blood He spilt,
My ransom from the dreadful guilt
Of sin, and wrath Divine :
I'd sing His glorious righteousness,
In which all-perfect, heavenly dress
My soul shall ever shine.
I'd sing the characters He bears.
And all the forms of love He wears.
Exalted on His throne :
In loftiest songs of sweetest praise,
I would to everlasting days
Make all His glories known.
Well, the delightful day will come
When my dear Lord will bring me home.
And I shall see His face ;
Then with my Saviour, Brother, Friend,
A blest eternity I '11 spend.
Triumphant in His grace.

2 Thou art gone where now is given 4 We, O Lord, with hearts adoring,
What no mortal might could gain, Follow Thee beyond the sky :
On the eternal throne of heaven Hear our prayers Thy grace imploring,
In Thy Father's power to reign. Lift our souls to Thee on high.
3 There Thy kingdoms all adore Thee, 5 So when Thou again in glory
Heaven above and earth below ; On the clouds of heaven shalt shine,
While the depths of hell before Thee We Thy flock may stand before Thee,
Trembling and amazed bow. Owned for ev-ermore as Thine.
6 Hail ! all hail ! In Thee confiding,
Jesus, Thee shall all adore,
In Thy Father's might abiding
With one Spirit evermore.

Where perfect praises ring,

2 Crown Him the Lord of love :
Behold His hands and side,
Rich wounds, yet visible above,
In beauty glorified :
No angel in the sky
Can fully bear that sight,
But downward bonds his burning eye
At mysteries so bright.
3 Crown Him the Ix»rd of peace ;
Whose power a sceptre sways
From pole to pole, that wars may cease,
Absorbed in prayer and praise :
His reign shall know no end ;
And round His pierced feet
Fair flowers of Paradise extend
Their fragrance ever sweet.
Crown Him the Lord of years,
The Potentate of time ;
Creator of the rolling spheres
Ineflably sublime :
All hail. Redeemer, hail !
For Thou hast died for me :
Thy praise shall never, never fail
Throughout eternity.

Travelling onward in His might ;
'Tis the Saviour, O how glorious
To His people is the sight !
Jesus now is strong to save,
Mighty to redeem the slave.
3 Why that blood His raiment staining?
'Tis the blood of many slain ;
Of His foes there's none remaining,
None the contest to maintain :
Fallen they are, no more to rise,
All their glory prostrate lies.
4 This the Saviour has effected
By His mighty arm alone ;
See the throne for Him erected;
'Tis an everlasting throne :
'Tis the great reward He gains,
Glorious fruit of all His pains.

Wear the crown so dearly won ;
Never shall Thy people, never

Thou hast fought Thy people's foes ;

Exerts its sacred fire ;
Wisdom and might, and zeal and love,
His holy breast inspire.
3 He comes, the prisoners to release
In Satan's bondage held ;
The gates of brass before Him burst.
The iron fetters yield.
4 He comes, from the thick films of vice
To clear the mental ray,
And on the eye-balls of the blind
To pour celestial day.
5 He comes, the broken heart to bind,
The bleeding soul to cure ;
And with the treasures of His grace
To enrich the humble poor.

And heaven's eternal arches ring

Glad receive whom God appointed

Look now ! for glad and golden hours.
Come swiftly on the wing :
O rest beside the weary road,
And hear the angels sing.
4 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.
Rev. Edmund H. Sears, 1850
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.
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, —

2 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,
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
r
The day when first on wintry earth
A summer change began,
And, dawning in a lowly birth,
Uprose the Light of man.
4 For trouble such as men must bear
From childhood to fourscore.
He shared with us, that we might share
His joy for evermore ;
And twice a thousand years of grief.
Of conflict, and of sin,
May tell how large the har\'est sheaf
His patient love shall win.

2 Then to the watchful shepherds it was told,
Who heard the angelic herald's voice : " Behold,
I bring good tidings of a Saviour's birth
To you, and all the nations u])on 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.
4 To Bethlehem straight the enlightened shepherds ran,
To see the wonder God had wrought for man ;
And found, with Joseph and the blessed maid,
Her Son, the Saviour, in a manger laid :
Amazed, the wondrous story they proclaim,
The first apostles of His infant fame.
€fjc ifJatibitp
5 Let us, like these good shepherds, then, employ
Our grateful voices to proclaim the joy :
Trace we the Babe, who has retrieved our loss.
From His poor manger to His bitter cross;
Treading His steps, assisted by His grace.
Till man's first heavenly state again takes place,

Shepherds, in the fields abiding,
Watching o'er your flocks by night,
God with man is now residing,
Yonder shines the infant Light :
Come and worship.
Worship Christ, the new-born King,
Sages, leave your contemplations.
Brighter visions beam afar ;
Seek the great Desire of nations ;
Ye have seen His natal star :
Come and worship.
Worship Christ, the new-born King.
Saints, before the altar bending,
Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord, descending.
In His temple shall appear :
Come and worship.
Worship Christ, the new-born King,
All creation, join in praising
God the Father, Spirit, Son ;
Evermore your voices raising
To the Paternal Three in One :
Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-bom King.

2 For Christ is born of Mary ;
And gathered all above,
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love.
O morning stars, together
Proclaim the holy birth ;
And praises sing to God the King,
And peace to men on earth.
3 How silently, how silently.
The wondrous gift is given !
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven.
No ear may hear His coming.
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive Him still,
The dear Christ enters in.
4 O holy Child of Bethlehem,
Descend to us, we pray ;
Cast out our sin, and enter in,
Be born in us to-day.
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell;
O come to us, abide with us,
Our Lord Emmanuel.

2 The answering hills of Palestine
Send back the glad reply,
And greet from all their holy heights
The Day-spring from on high :
O'er the blue depths of Galilee
There comes a holier calm ;
And Sharon waves in solemn praise
Her silent groves of palm.
3 " Glory to God ! " the lofty strain
The realm of ether fills ;
How sweeps the song of solemn joy
O'er Judah's sacred hills !
" Glory to God ! " the sounding skies
Loud with their anthems ring :
" Peace on the earth ; good-will to men,
From heaven's eternal King."
4 This day shall Christian tongues be mute,
And Christian hearts be cold?
O catch the anthem that from heaven
O'er Judah's mountains rolled ;
When burst upon that listening night
The high and solemn lay,
" Glory to God ; on earth be peace : "
Salvation comes to-day.

For it dawns, the promised morrow
Of His birth, who the earth
Rescues from her sorrow.
God to wear our form descendeth ;
Of His grace to our race
Here His Son He lendeth.
Hark ! a voice from yonder manger,
Soft and sweet, doth entreat :
" Flee from woe and danger ;
Brethren, come ; from all doth grieve you
You are freed ; all you need
I will surely give you."
184
(CANONBURY) L. M.
ALL praise to Thee, Eternal Lord,
Clothed in a garb of flesh and blood ;
Choosing a mnnger for Thy throne,
While worlds on worlds are Thine alone.
Once did the skies before Thee bow ;
A Virgin's arms contain Thee now :
Angels who did in Thee rejoice
Now listen for Thine infant voice.
A little Child, Thou art our Guest,
That weary ones in Thee may rest ;
4 Come, then, let us hasten yonder :
Here let all, great and small.
Kneel in awe and wonder ;
Love Him who with love is yearning;
Hail the Star that from far
Bright with hope is burning.
5 Blessed Saviour, let me find Thee ;
Keep Thou me close to Thee,
Cast me not behind Thee :
Life of life, my heart Thou stillest,
Calm I rest on Thy breast,
.All this void Thou fillest.
Rev. Paul Gerhardt, 1656. Tr Catherine Winkworth, 1858
Forlorn and lowly is Thy birth,
That we may rise to heaven from earth.
Thou comest in the darksome night
To make us children of the light,
To make us, in the realms Divine,
Like Thine own angels round Thee shine.
All this for us Thy love hath done ;
By this to Thee our love is won :
For this we tune our cheerful lays,
And shout our thanks in ceaseless praise.
Martin Luther, 1514. Tr. Anon. Sabbath Hy. Rk. 1858

Once hast lowly lain,
Who dost now in glory
O'er all kingdoms reign,
Gather in the heathen,
Who in lands afar
Ne'er have seen the brightness
Of Thy guiding star.
Light of life, etc.
3 Gather in the outcasts.
All who've gone astray,
Throw Thy radiance o'er them.
Guide them on their way :
Those who never knew Thee,
Those who've wandered far,
Guide them by the brightness
Of Thy guiding star.

Of the lonely night,
Shining still before them

Until every nation,
Whether bond or free,
'Neath Thy starlit banner,

As with joyful steps they sped
To that lowly manger-bed.
There to bend the knee before
Him whom heaven and earth adore ;
So may we with willing feet
Ever seek Thy mercy-seat.
As they offered gifts most rare
At that manger rude and bare ;
So may we with holy joy.
Pure, and free from sin's alloy,
All our costliest treasures bring,
Christ, to Thee, our heavenly King.

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 no clouds Thy glory hide.
In the heavenly country bright
Need they no created light ;
Thou its Light, its Joy, its Crown,
Thou its Sun which goes not down ;
There for ever may we sing
Alleluias to our King.

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?
4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation ;
Vainly with gifts would His favor secure :
Richer by far is the heart's adoration ;
Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.

2 Grateful now we fall before Thee,
In Thy Church obtain a place ;
Now by faith behold Thy glory,
Praise Thy truth, adore Thy grace.
3 Once far off, but now invited,
We approach Thy sacred throne ;
In Thy covenant united.
Reconciled, redeemed, made one.
4 Now revealed to Eastern sages,
See the star of mercy shine :
Mystery hid in former ages,
Mystery great of love Divine.
5 Hail, Thou manifested Saviour !
Gentiles now their offerings bring ;
In Thy temple seek Thy favor,
Jesus Christ, our Lord and King.

1 FORTY days and forty nights
Thou wast fasting in the wild ;
Forty days and forty nights
Tempted, and yet undefiled.
2 Sunbeams scorching all the day ;
Chilly dewdrops nightly shed ;
Prowling beasts about Thy way ;
Stones Thy pillow ; earth Thy bed.
3 Shall not we Thy sorrow share,
And from earthly joys abstain,
Fasting with unceasing prayer,
Glad with Thee to suffer pain?
4 And if Satan, vexing sore,
Flesh or spirit should assail,
Thou, his Vanquisher before,
Grant we may not faint nor fail.
5 So shall we have peace Divine ;
Holier gladness ours shall be ;
Round us too shall angels shine.
Such as ministered to Thee.

2 For ever on Thy burdened heart
A weight of sorrow hung ;
Yet no ungentle, murmuring word
Escaped Thy silent tongue.
3 Thy foes might hate, despise, revile,
Thy friends unfaithful prove ;
Unwearied in forgiveness still,
Thy heart could only love.
4 O give us hearts to love like Thee,
Like Thee, O Lord, to grieve
Far more for others' sins than all
The wrongs that we receive.
5 One with Thyself, may every eye
In us, Thy brethren, see
That gentleness and grace that spring
From union, Lord, with Thee.

2 Ye saw the heaven-born Child
In human flesh arrayed,
Benevolent and mild,
While in the manger laid :
And " Praise to God,
And peace on earth,"
For such a birth,
Proclaimed aloud.
3 Around the bloody tree
Ye pressed with strong desire
That wondrous sight to see,
The Lord of life expire :
And could your eyes
Have known a tear,
Had dropped it there
In sad surprise.
4 Around His sacred tomb
A willing watch ye keep
Till the blest moment come
To rouse Him from His sleep
Then rolled the stone,
And all adored
Your rising Lord
With joy unknown.
When, all arrayed in light,
The shining Conqueror rode,
Ye hailed His rapturous flight
Up to the throne of God,
And waved around
Your golden wings.
And struck your strings
Of sweetest sound.
The warbling notes pursue,
And louder anthems raise,
While mortals sing with you
Their own Redeemer's praise :
And thou, my heart,
With equal flame.
And joy the same,
Perform thy part.

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 ;
r
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 ;
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.

And piercing words of Hberty
The deaf ears open shake ;
And mildest words arrest the haste
Of fever's deadly fire,
And strong ones heal the weak who waste
Their life in sad desire?
O where is He that trod the sea,
O where is He that spake,
And dark waves rolling heavily
A glassy smoothness take ;
And lepers, whose own flesh has been
A solitary grave,
See with amaze that they are clean,
And cry, " 'Tis He can save "?
4 O where is He that trod the sea ?
'Tis only He can save ;
To thousands hungering wearily
A wondrous meal He gave ;
Full soon, celestially fed.
Their rustic fare they take ;
'Twas springtide when He blest the bread.
And harvest when He brake.
5 O where is He that trod the sea?
My soul, the Lord is here :
Let all thy fears be hushed in thee ;
To leap, to look, to hear
Be thine : thy needs He Ml satisfy.
Art thou diseased or dumb.
Or dost thou in thine hunger cry?

2 Guide me, O Saviour, with Thy hand, 4 Guard me, O Lord, that I may ne'er
And so control my thoughts and deeds, Forsake the right, or do the wrong :
That I may tread the path which leads Against temptation make me strong,
Right onward to the blessed land. And round me spread Thy sheltering care.
3 Help me, O Saviour, here to trace 5 Bless me in every task, O Lord,
The sacred footsteps Thou hast trod ; Begun, continued, done for Thee :
And, meekly walking with my God, Fulfil Thy perfect work in me ;
To grow in goodness, truth, and grace. And Thine abounding grace afford.
Rev. William T. Matson (1833- )
202 (ST. LAWRENCE) L. M.
I BEHOLD, the Master passeth by !
O seest thou not His pleading eye?
With low sad voice He calleth thee.
3 One heard Him calling long ago,
And straightway left all things below,
Counting his earthly gain as loss
" Leave this vain world, and follow Me." For Jesus and His blessed cross.
2 Osoul, bowed down with harrowing care, 4 That "Follow Me" his faithful ear
Hast thou no thought for heaven to spare? Seemed every day afresh to hear:
From earthly toils lift up thine eye ; Its echoes stirred his spirit still,
Behold, the Master passeth by ! And fired his hope, and nerved his will.
5 God gently calls us ever}' day :
Why should we then our bliss delay?
Thou, Lord, e'en now art calling me ;
I will leave all, and follow Thee.

O Son of God, in glory raised,

Most blest in earth and heaven.

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

O let me think how Thou didst leave
Untasted every pure delight,
To fast, to faint, to watch, to grieve,
The toilsome day, the homeless night :-
2 Privations, sorrows, bitter scorn.
The life of toil, the mean abode,
The faithless kiss, the crown of thorn, ■
Are these the consecrated road?
3 'Twas thus He suffered, though a Son, 6 To faint, to grieve, to die for me !
Foreknowing, choosing, feeling all. Thou earnest, not Thyself to please ;
Until the perfect work was done. And, dear as earthly comforts be.
And drunk the bitter cup of gall. Shall I not love Thee more than these ?
4 Lord, should my path through suffering lie, 7 Yes, I would count them all but loss.
Forbid it I should e'er repine ; To gain the notice of Thine eye :
Still let me turn to Calvary, Flesh shrinks and trembles at the cross.
Nor heed my griefs, remembering Thine. But Thou canst give the victory.

He sent no angel to our race,
Of higher or of lower place,
But wore the robe of human frame.
And He Himself to this world came.
For us baptized, for us He bore
His holy fast, and hungered sore.
For us temptations sharp He knew,
For us the tempter overthrew.
For us He preaches and He prays,
Would do all things, would try all ways ;
By words, and signs, and actions, thus
Still seeking not Himself, but us.
5 For us to wicked men betrayed,
Scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns
arrayed ;
For us He bore the cross's death.
For us at length gave up His breath.
6 For us He rose from death again,
For us He went on high to reign.
For us He sent His Spirit here
To guide, to strengthen, and to cheer.
7 All honor, laud, and glory be,
O Jesus, Virgin-born, to Thee ;
All glory, as is ever meet.
To Father, and to Paraclete.

1 O WHO like Thee so calm, so bright,
Thou Son of Man, Thou Light of Light !
O who like Thee did ever go
So patient through a world of woe !
2 O who like Thee so humbly bore
The scorn, the scoffs of men before ;
So meek, forgiving. (>odlike, high.
So glorious in humility !
And all Thy life's unchanging years,
A man of sorrows and of tears.
The cross, where all our sins were laid.
Upon Thy bending shoulders weighed ;
And death, which sets the prisoner free.
Was pang, and scoff, and scorn to Thee ;
Yet love through all Thy torture glowed,
And mercy with Thy life-blood flowed.
O in Thy light be mine to go,
Illimiing all this way of woe ;
And give me ever on the road
To trace Thy footsteps, Son of God.

2 There prophets praise Thy glorious Name,
And deeds which Thou hast done ;
And there the Father's words proclaim
His own beloved Son.
3 The rays of Thy transfigured face
Beam with such golden light
That we would never leave the place,
Nor lose the heavenly sight.
4 But there is work on earth to do,
The suffering soul to heal ;
The harvest great, the laborers few
Thy kingdom to reveal.
5 We may not linger on the mount,
Where bright Thy glories shine ;
We may not taste the sacred fount
Of blessedness Divine :
6 But let some beams of heavenly light
Make bright our earthly way ;
Then grant the beatific sight
Of heaven and endless day.

My heart to praise awaking,
Her anthem shall prepare.
Perpetual thanks and praises
Forth from my heart shall spring ;
I to Thy Name the service
Of all my powers will bring.
3 Love caused Thy incarnation,
Love brought Thee down to me ;
Thy thirst for my salvation
Procured my liberty :
O love beyond all telling,
That led Thee to embrace,
In love all love excelling,

O the wormwood and the gall !
O the pangs His soul sustained !
Shun not suffering, shame, or loss ;
Learn of Him to bear the cross.
Thou, His own Anointed One,
Thou dost ask Him — can it be?
" Why hast Thou forsaken Me ? "
Lord, should fear and anguish roll
Darkly o'er my sinful soul.
Thou, who once wast thus bereft
That Thine own might ne'er be left —
Teach me by that bitter cry
In the gloom to know Thee nigh.

Calvary's mournful mountain climb ;
There, adoring at His feet,
Mark that miracle of time,
God's own sacrifice complete :
" It is finished ! " — hear the cry ;
Learn of Jesus Christ to die.
Early hasten to the tomb
Where they laid His breathless clay :
All is solitude and gloom ;
^\'ho hath taken Him away?
Christ is risen ! He meets our eyes.
Saviour, teach us so to rise.

O noblest brow and dearest,
In other days the world
All feared when Thou appearedst ;
What shame on Thee is hurled !
How art Thou pale with anguish,
With sore abuse and scorn ;
How does that visage languish
Which once was bright as morn !
What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered
Was all for sinners' gain :
Mine, mine was the transgression,
But Thine the deadly pain.
Lo, here I fall, my Saviour !
'Tis I deserve Thy place ;
Look on me with Thy favor,
Vouchsafe to me Thy grace.
What language shall I borrow
To thank Thee, dearest Friend,
For this Thy dying sorrow,
Thy pity without end?
O make me Thine for ever ;
And should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
Outlive my love to Thee.
Be near when I am dying,
O show Thy cross to me ;
And for my succor flying,
Come, Lord, to set me free :
These eyes, new faith receiving.
From Jesus shall not move ;
For he who dies believing,
Dies safely, through Thy love.

4 Thus might I hide my blushing face
While His dear cross appears ;
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
And melt my eyes to tears.
5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay
The debt of love I owe ;
Here, Lord, I give myself away,
'Tis all that I can do.
Rev. Isaac Watts, 1707 : verse 3, 1. 3, alt.
2 Was it for crimes that I had done
He groaned upon the tree !
Amazing pity ! Grace unknown !
And love beyond degree !
3 Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut his glories in,
When He, the mighty Maker, died
For man the creature's sin.

2 The awful sorrow of His face,
The bowing of His frame,
Come not from torture or disgrace ;
He fears not cross or shame.
3 There is a deeper pang of grief,
An agony unknown.
In which His love finds no relief;
He bears it all alone.
4 He thinks of all for whom His life
Of lowliness and pain,
And weariness and care and strife,
Will be, alas, in vain.
221 (ST. MARY) C. M.
I O THOU, the Eternal Son of God,
The Lamb for sinners slain.
We worship, while Thy head is bowed
In agony and pain.
5 He sees the souls for whom He dies
Yet clinging to their sin,
And heirs of mansions in the skies
Who will not enter in.
6 Ah ! this, my Saviour, was the shame
That bowed Thy head so low ;
These were the wounds that racked Thy
And made Thy tears to flow, [frame,
7 O may I in Thy sorrow share.
And mourn that sins of mine
Should ever wound with grief or care
That loving heart of Thine.
Rev. Thomas B. Pollock, 1870
Thou Great High Priest, Thy glory- robes
To-day are laid aside ;
And human sorrows, Son of Man,
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 Our sin it is which pierces Thee,
Which only can atone. And breaks Thy sacred heart.
5 Who love Thee most, at Thy dear cross,
Will truest, Lord, abide ;
^L'lke Thou that cross our only hope,
O Jesus crucified.

Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown ?
Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a present far too small ;
Love so amazing, so Divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.
Rev. Isaac Watts, 1707
2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
Save in the death of Christ my God :
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to His blood.

Sorrow and love flow mingled down :

How oft of faithful love my lips have told Thee,
While Thou hast seen my falsehood and my shame.

With blows and outrage adding pain to pain :

2 Dark and still the cell that holds Him,
While in brief repose He lies ;
Deep the slumber that enfolds Him,
Veiled awhile from mortal eyes ;
Slumber such as needs must be
After hard-won victory,
3 Fierce and deadly was the anguish
Which on yonder cross He bore ;
How did soul and body languish
Till the toil of death was o'er :
Hut that toil, so fierce and dread.
Bruised and cruslied the serpent's head.
4 All night long, with plaintive voicing,
Chant His requiem soft and low :
Loftier strains of loud rejoicing
From to-morrow's harps shall flow :

2 '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 ;
Comes to glad Jerusalem,
Who with true affection
Welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4 Neither might the gates of death,
Nor the tomb's dark portal.
Nor the watchers, nor the seal.
Hold Thee as a mortal :
But to-day amidst the Twelve
Thou didst stand, bestowing
That Thy peace, which evermore
Passeth human knowing.

2 Vain the stone, the watch, the seal ;
Christ has burst the gates of hell :
Death in vain forbids His rise ;
Christ has opened Paradise.
ST. KEVIN 7. 6. 7. 6. D.
Lives again our glorious King :
Where, O death, is now thy sting?
Once He died, our souls to save :
Where thy victory, O grave?
Soar we now where Christ has led,
Following our exalted Head :
Made like Him, like Him we rise ;
Ours the cross, the grave, the skies.
Hail the Lord of earth and heaven !
Praise to Thee by both be given :
Thee we greet triumphant now :
Hail, the Resurrection Thou !

While He, the King all strong to save, 4 The shining angels cry, " Away
Rends the dark doors away, With grief; no spices bring ;
And through the breaches of the grave Not tears, but songs, this joyful day,
Strides forth into the day. Should greet the rising King ! "
Glory to God ! etc. Glory to God ! etc.
Death's captive, in his gloomy prison 5 That Thou our Paschal Lamb may'st be,
Fast fettered He has lain ; And endless joy begin,
But He has mastered death, is risen, Jesus, Deliverer, set us free
And death wears now the chain. From the dread death of sin.
Glory to God ! etc. Glory to God ! etc.

To Thee and to Thy Christ, O 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, O 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, O 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, O God. for evermore
Be to Thy Christ and Thee.

2 Christ is risen, Christ the first-fruits
Of the holy harvest-field,
Which will all its full abundance
At His second coming yield :
Then the golden ears of harvest
Will their heads before Him wave,
Ripened by His glorious sunshine
From the furrows of the grave.
3 Christ is risen ; we are risen.
Shed upon us heavenly grace,
Rain and dew and gleams of glory
From the brightness of Thy face ;
That we, Lord, with hearts in heaven.
Here on earth may fruitful be.
And by angel-hands be gathered,
And be ever safe with Thee.

2 In vain with stone the cave they barred ; 4
In vain the watch kept ward and guard :
Majestic from the spoiled tomb,
In pomp of triumph Christ is come.
3 He binds in chains the ancient foe ; 5
A countless host He frees from woe,
And heaven's high portal open flies,
For Christ has risen, and man shall rise.
And all He did, and all He bare.
He gives us as our own to share ;
And hope and joy and peace begin.
For Christ has won, and man shall win,
O Victor, aid us in the fight.
And lead through death to realms of light :
We safely pass where Thou hast trod ;
In Thee we die to rise to God.
6 Thy flock, from sin and death set free,
Glad alleluias raise to Thee ;
And ever with the heavenly host
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Death seemed all-conquering when he 3
bound
The Lord of life in prison ;
The night of death was nowhere found
When Christ again was risen ;
Wherefore praise Him night and day,
Him who took death's sting away.
His saints with Him must bow to death.
With Him are raised in spirit,
With Him they dwell above by faith,
Accepted through His merit :
Heaven and earth resound the strain,
Death by Jesus Christ is slain.
Joseph Anstice, 1836 : verse 3 arr.
243 (WIRTEMBURQ) 7.7.7.7. with
1 CHRIST the Lord is risen again ;
Christ hath broken every chain :
Hark, angelic voices cry,
Singing evermore on high. Alleluia !
2 He who gave for us His life,
Who for us endured the strife.
Is our Paschal Lamb to-day ;
We too sing for joy, and say, Alleluia !
3 He who bore all pain and loss
Comfortless upon the Cross,
Lives in glory now on high.
Pleads for us and hears our cry ; Alleluia
Alleluia
4 He who slumbered in the grave,
Is exalted now to save ;
Now through Christendom it rings
That the Lamb is Kingof kings. Alleluia !
5 Now He bids us tell abroad
How the lost may be restored.
How the penitent forgiven,
How we too may enter heaven. Alleluia !
6 Thou our Paschal Lamb indeed,
Christ, to-day Thy people feed ;
Take our sins and gtiilt away,
! That we all may sing for aye. Alleluia !

2 There the glorious triumph waits :
Lift your heads, eternal gates ;
Wide unfold the radiant scene ;
Take the King of Glory in,
3 Him though highest heaven receives,
Still He loves the earth He leaves ;
Though returning to His throne,
Still He calls mankind His own.
4 See, He lifts His hands above ;
See, He shows the prints of love ;
Hark ! His gracious lips bestow
Blessings on His Church below.
5 Still for us His death He pleads ;
Prevalent He intercedes ;
Near Himself prepares our place,
Harbinger of human race.

Who is this that comes in glory.
With the trump of jubilee?
Lord of battles, God of armies,
He has gained the victory ;
He who on the cross did suffer,
He who from the grave arose,
He has vanquished sin and Satan,
He by death has spoiled His foes.
While He raised His hands in blessing.
He was parted from His friends ;
While their eager eyes behold Him,
He upon the clouds ascends ;
He who walked with God, and pleased
Him,
Preaching truth and doom to come,
Christ, our Enoch, is translated
To His everlasting home.
Now our heavenly Aaron enters.
With His blood, within the veil ;
Joshua now is come to Canaan,
And the kings before Him quail ;
Now He plants the tribes of Israel
In their promised resting-place ;
Now our great Elijah offers
Double portion of His grace.
Thou hast raised our human nature
In the clouds to God's right hand ;
There we sit in heavenly places,
There with Thee in glory stand :
Jesus reigns, adored by angels,
Man with God is on the throne ;
Mighty Lord, in Thine ascension
We by faith behold our own.

1 O THOU, the contrite sinners' Friend, 4 When Satan, by my sins made bold,
Who, loving, lov'st them to the end. Strives from Thy cross to loose my hold,
On this alone my hopes depend. Then with Thy pitying arms enfold,
That Thou wilt plead for me. And plead, O plead for me.
2 When, weary in the Christian race.
Far off appears my resting-place,
And, fainting, I mistrust Thy grace.
Then, Saviour, plead for me.
3 When I have erred and gone astray,
Afar from Thine and wisdom's way.
And see no glimmering guiding ray,
Still, Saviour, plead for me.
5 And when my dying hour draws near,
O'ercast with sorrow, pain, and fear.
Then to my fainting sight appear,
Pleading in heaven for me.
6 When the full light of heavenly day
Reveals my sins in dread array,
Say Thou hast washed them all away ;
O say Thou plead'st for me.

2 He sprinkles with His blood
The mercy-seat above ;
For justice had withstood
The purposes of love :
But justice now objects no more,
And mercy yields her boundless store.
ELMHURST 8.8.86
3 No temple made with hands
His place of service is ;
In heaven itself He stands,
A heavenly priesthood His :
In Him the shadows of the law
Are all fulfilled, and now withdraw.
4 And though awhile He be
Hid from the eyes of men,
His people look to see
Their Great High Priest again :
In brightest glory He will come,
And take His waiting people home.

2 He who for men their Surety stood,
And poured on earth His precious blood,
Pursues in heaven His mighty plan,
The Saviour and the Friend of man.
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.
4 Our Fellow-sufferer yet retains
A fellow-feeling of our pains,
Michael Bruce, publ. 1781 : verse i
And still remembers in the skies
His tears, His agonies, and cries.
5 In every pang that rends the heart
The Man of Sorrows had a part ;
He sympathizes with our grief,
And to the sufferer sends reUef.
6 With boldness, therefore, at the throne
Let us make all our sorrows known,
And ask the aids of heavenly power
To help us in the evil hour.

1 ALL faded is the glowing light
That once from heaven shone.
When startled shepherds in the night
The angels came upon.
2 O shine again, ye angel host.
And say that He is near ;
Though but a simple few at most
Believe He will appear.
3 Ye heavens, that have been growing dark,
Now also are ye dumb ;
When shall the listeners say, " Hark !
They're singing — He will come " ?
4 Lord, come again, O come again,
Come even as Thou wilt ;
But not anew to suffer pain.
And strive with human guilt.
5 O come again, Thou mighty King,
Let earth Thy glory see ;
And let us hear the angels sing,
" He comes with victory."

And answering island sing
The praises of Thy royal Name,
And own Thee as their King.
3 Bid the whole earth, responsive now
To the bright world above,
Break forth in rapturous strains of joy
In memory of Thy love.
4 Lord, Lord, Thy fair creation groans,
The air, the earth, the sea,
In unison with all our hearts.
And calls aloud for Thee.
5 Come, then, with all Thy quickening
With one awakening smile, [power,
And bid the serpent's trail no more

Of grace and peace Divine:

2 Jesus comes again in mercy,
When our hearts are bowed with care ;
Jesus comes again in answer
To an earnest, heartfelt prayer ;
Alleluia ! Alleluia !
Comes to save us from despair.
3 Jesus comes to hearts rejoicing,
Bringing news of sins forgiven ;
Jesus comes in sounds of gladness,
Leading souls redeemed to heaven ;
Alleluia ! Alleluia !
Now the gate of death is riven.
4 Jesus comes in joy and sorrow.
Shares alike our hopes and fears ;
Jesus comes, whate'er befalls us.
Glads our hearts, and dries our tears ;
Alleluia ! Alleluia !
Cheering e'en our failing years.
5 Jesus comes on clouds triumphant,
When the heavens shall pass away ;
Jesus comes again in glory ;
Let us then our homage pay,
Alleluia ! ever singing
Till the dawn of endless day.

Worn out with these long years of ill.

Hasten, Lord, the general doom ;

Take Thy pining exiles home :

Travails, groans, and bids Thee come.
2 Every eye shall now behold Him,
Robed in dreadful majesty ;
Those who set at naught and sold Him,
Pierced, and nailed Him to the Tree,
Deeply wailing.
Shall the true Messiah see.
3 Every island, sea, and mountain.
Heaven and earth, shall flee away ;
All who hate Him must, confounded.

2 Thou art coming, Thou art coming ; 3
We shall meet Thee on Thy way,
We shall see Thee, we shall know Thee,
We shall bless Thee, we shall show Thee
All our hearts could never say :
What an anthem that will be.
Ringing out our love to Thee,
Pouring out our rapture sweet
At Thine own all-glorious feet.
Thou art coming ; at Thy Table
We are witnesses for this ;
While remembering hearts Thou meetest
In communion clearest, sweetest,
Earnest of our coming bliss ;
Showing not Thy death alone,
And Thy love exceeding great,
But Thy coming and Thy throne,
All for which we long and wait.
'Zf^t cS>cconl) Coming anti 3'utigmcnt
Thou art coming ; we are waiting
With a hope that cannot fail ;
Asking not the day or hour,
Resting on Thy word of power,
Anchored safe within the veil :
Time appointed may be long,
But the vision must be sure ;
Certainty shall make us strong,
Joyful patience can endure.

O the joy to see Thee reigning,
Thee, my own beloved Lord !
Every tongue Thy Name confessing,
Worship, honur, glory, blessing
Brought to Thee with glad accord ;
Thee, my Master and my Friend,
Vindicated and enthroned ;
Unto earth's remotest end
Glorified, adored, and owned.

New gladness to begin.
And ancient wrong to end ;
He comes, to fill with light
The weary waiting eye :
Lift up your heads, rejoice,

The dead in Christ shall first arise,
At the last trumpet's sounding,
Caught up to meet Him in the skies,
With joy their Lord surrounding ;
No gloomy fears their souls dismay ;
His presence sheds eternal day
On those prepared to meet Him.
Si/
But sinners, filled with guilty fears,
Behold His wrath prevailing ;
For they shall rise, and find their tears
And sighs are unavailing :
The day of grace is past and gone ;
Trembling they stand before the throne,
All unprepared to meet Him.
4 Great God, what do I see and hear !
The end of things created !
The Judge of mankind doth appear.
On clouds of glory seated !
Beneath His cross I view the day
When heaven and earth shall pass away,
And thus prepare to meet Him.

2 He came in semblance of a dove,
With sheltering wings outspread,
The holy balm of peace and love
On earth to shed.
3 He came sweet influence to impart,
A gracious, willing Guest,
While He can find one humble heart
Wherein to rest.
4 And His that gentle voice we hear.
Soft as the breath of even,
That checks each thought, that calms
And speaks of heaven, [each fear,
5 And every virtue we possess,
And every victory won,
And every thought of holiness.

Amid our gloom and darkness shine,
And guide our souls above ;

Dost stop the sinner's way,
And bid the mourning saint rejoice,
Though earthly joys decay ;

Teach me the stniggles of the soul to
To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh ;

One holy passion filling all my frame ;

Adoring praise to Thee we pay ;
Pour down, blest Spirit, from above
Fresh streams of grace this day,
2 Thou, o'er the Everlasting Son 5
Hovering with wings of living light,
Anointedst Israel's Champion
To fight the awful fight.
3 At Pentecost Thou camest down, 6
As sound of rushing wind went by.
With tongues of heavenly fire to crown
That glorious company.
Thou on each new-born child of grace
Dost now in hidden power descend,
To strengthen for life's weary race,
To comfort and defend.
Thou in each meek and lowly heart,
With streams of living waters bright,
Sweet Fount of strength and gladness art,
Fresh Spring of life and light.
Thee, Spirit blest, All-Holy One,
In songs of triumph we adore,
For, with the Father and the Son,
Thou reignest evermore.

Faith, that mountains could remove,
Tongues of earth or heaven above,
Knowledge, all things, empty prove,
Without heavenly love.
Love is kind, and suffers long ;
Love is meek, and thinks no wrong ;
Love than death itself more strong ;
Therefore, give us love.
Prophecy will fade away.
Melting in the light of day ;
Love will ever with us stay ;
Therefore, give us love.

5 Faith will. vanish into sight ;
Hope be emptied in delight ;
Love in heaven will shine more bright ;
Therefore, give us love.
6 Faith and hope and love we see,
Joining hand in hand, agree ;
But the greatest of the three,
And the best, is love.
7 From the overshadowing
Of Thy gold and silver wing,
Shed on us who to Thee sing
Holy, heavenly love.

Give virtue's rich reward ;
Victorious death accord.
And, with our glorious Lord,
Eternal joy.
Anon. (Latin, 13th cent.) Tr. Rev. Ray Palmer, 1858
3 Life and peace to me impart ;
Seal salvation on my heart ;
Breathe Thyself into my breast,
Earnest of immortal rest.
4 Let me never from Thee stray,
Keep me in the narrow way,
Fill my soul with joy Divine,
Keep me, Lord, for ever Thine.

And let Thy peace within us dwell ;

6 If Thou take Thy grace away,
Nothing pure in man will stay ;
All his good is turned to ill.
7 Heal our wounds ; our strength renew ;
On our dryness pour Thy dew ;
Wash the stains of guilt away.
8 Bend the stubborn heart and will ;
Melt the frozen, warm the chill ;
Guide the steps that go astray.

Thee confess and Thee adore.

Come with treasures which endure.
Come, Thou Light of all that live.

Thou, the soul's delightsome Guest,
Dost refreshing peace bestow.

O GRANT us light, that we may know
The wisdom Thou alone canst give ;
That truth may guide where'er we go.
And virtue bk-ss where'er we live.
O grant us light, that we may see
Where error lurks in human lore,
And turn our doubting minds to Thee,
.And love Thy simple word the more.
O grant us light, that we may learn
How dead is life from Thee apart,
How sure is joy for all who turn
To Thee an undivided heart.
O grant us light, in grief and pain,
To lift our burdened hearts above,
And count the very cross a gain,
And bless our F'ather's hidden love.
O grant us light, when, soon or late.
All earthly scenes shall pass away.
In Thee to find the open gate
To deathless home and endless day.

2 The Church from her dear Master
Received the gift Divine,
And still that light she lifteth
O'er all the earth to shine.
It is the golden casket,
\\'here gems of truth are stored ;
It is the heaven-drawn picture
Of Christ, the living Word.
3 It floateth like a banner
Piefore God's host unfurled ;
It shineth like a beacon
Above the darkling world.
It is the chart and compass
That o'er life's surging sea,
'Mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
Still guides, O Christ, to Thee.
O make Thy Church, dear Saviour,
A lamp of purest gold,
To bear before the nations
Thy true light, as of old.
O teach Thy wandering pilgrims
By this their path to trace.
Till, clouds and darkness ended,
They see Thee face to face.

2 Bread of our souls, whereon we feed ;
True manna from on high ;
Our guide and chart, wherein we read
Of realms beyond the sky ;
3 Pillar of fire, through watches dark,
Or radiant cloud by day ;
4 Word of the ever-living God,
Will of His glorious Son : —
Without thee how could earth be trod,
Or heaven itself be won ?
5 Yet to unfold thy hidden worth,
Thy mysteries to reveal,
When waves would whelm our tossing bark, That Spirit which first gave thee forth
Our anchor and our stay ; Thy volume must unseal.
6 And we, if we aright would learn
The wisdom it imparts.
Must to its heavenly teaching turn
With simple, childlike hearts.

1 HOW precious is the book Divine,
By inspiration given :
Bright as a lamp its doctrines shine,
To guide our souls to heaven.
2 It sweetly cheers our drooping hearts,
In this dark vale of tears ;
291 (ORTONVILLE) CM.
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 :
O may these heavenly pages be
My ever dear delight ;
And still new beauties may I see.
And still increasing light.
Divine Instructor, gracious Lord,
Be Thou forever near ;
Teach me to love Thy sacred word.
And view my Saviour there.
Anne Steele, i7'x>
Life, light, and joy it still imparts,
And quells our rising fears.
This lamp, through all the tedious night
Of life, shall guide our way.
Till we behold the clearer light
Of an eternal day.
Rev. John Fawceit, 178a
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.

2 The rolling sun, the changing light,
And nights and days, Thy power con-
fess ;
But the blest volume Thou hast writ
Reveals Thy justice and Thy grace.
3 Sun, moon, and stars convey Thy praise
Round the whole earth, and never stand ;
So when Thy truth began its race,
It touched and glanced on every land.
4 Nor shall Thy spreading gospel rest
Till through the world Thy truth has
run ;
Till Christ has all the nations blest
That see the light, or feel the sun.
5 Great Sun of Righteousness, arise ;
Bless the dark world with heavenly light :
Thy gospel makes the simple wise,
Thy laws are pure, Thy judgments right.
6 Thy noblest wonders here we view
In souls renewed, and sins forgiven :
Lord, cleanse my sins, my soul renew,
And make Thy word my guide to heaven.

Where love in all its glory shines,

2 Here sinners of a humble frame
May taste His grace, and learn His Name ;
May read, in characters of blood,
The wisdom, power, and grace of God.
3 The prisoner here may break his chains ;
The weary rest from all his pains ;
iSss
The captive feel his bondage cease ;
The mourner find the way of peace.
4 Here faith reveals to mortal eyes
A brighter world beyond the skies ;
Here shines the light which guides our way
From earth to realms of endless day.
5 O grant us grace, Almighty I>ord,
To read and mark Thy holy word ;
Its truths with meekness to receive.
And by its holy precepts live.

2 See, the streams of living waters,
Springing from eternal Love,
Well supply thy sons and daughters,
And all fear of want remove :
Who can faint, when such a river
Ever flows their thirst to assuage ;
Grace, which, like the Lord the Giver,
Never fails from age to age?
3 Round each habitation hovering.
See the cloud and fire appear
For a glory and a covering.
Showing that the Lord is near,
Thus deriving from their banner
Light by night, and shade by day,
Safe they feed upon the manna
Which He gives them when they pray.
4 Saviour, if of Zion's city
I, through grace, a member am,
Let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in Thy Name :
Fading is the worldling's pleasure,
All his boasted pomp and show ;
Solid joys and lasting treasure
None but Zion's children know.

2 I love Thy Church, O God :
Her walls before Thee stand,
Dear as the apple of Thine eye.
And graven on Thy hand.
3 For her my tears shall fall.
For her my prayers ascend ;
To her my cares and toils be given,
Till toils and cares shall end.
4 Beyond my highest joy
I prize her heavenly ways,
Her sweet communion, solemn vows,
Her hymns of love and praise,
5 Jesus, Thou Friend Divine,
Our Saviour and our King,
Thy hand from every snare and foe
Shall great deliverance bring.

To Zion shall be given
The brightest glories earth can yield,

And cry a - loud, And give to God The praise of our sal - va - tion. Amem.
While in affliction's furnace,
And passing through the fire,
Thy love we praise
Which knows our days,
And ever brings us nigher :
We lift our hands exulting
In Thine almighty favor ;
The love Divine
Which made us Thine
Shall keep us Thine for ever.
Thou dost conduct Thy people
Through torrents of temptation ;
Nor will we fear.
While Thou art near,
The fire of tribulation :
The world, with sin and Satan,
In vain our march opposes;
Through Thee we shall
Break through them all.
And sing the song of Moses.
By faith we see the glory
To which Thou shalt restore us,
The cross despise
For that high prize
Which Thou hast set before us ;
And if Thou count us worthy.
We each, as dying Stephen,
Shall see Thee stand
At God's right hand
To take us up to heaven.

Dearly loved of God on high,
In exultant jubilation
Pours perpetual melody ;

In glad hymns eternally.
3 To this temple, where we call Thee,
Come, O Lord of hosts, to-day :
With Thy wonted loving-kindness
Hear Thy people as they pray ;
And Thy fullest benediction
Shed within its walls alway.
4 Here vouchsafe to all Thy servants
What they ask of Thee to gain.
What they gain from Thee for ever
With the blessed to retain,
And hereafter in Thy glory
Evermore with Thee to reign.

Cease thy mourning ; Great deliverance

Elect from every nation,
Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation
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.
Though with a scornful wonder
Men see her sore oppressed,
By schisms rent asunder,
By heresies distressed.
Yet saints their watch are keeping,
Their cry goes up, " How long? "
And soon the night of weeping
Shall be the morn of song.
'Mid toil and tribulation,
And tumult of her war.
She waits the consummation
Of peace for evermore ;
Till with the vision glorious
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest.
Yet she on earth hath union
With God the Three in One,
And mystic sweet communion
With those whose rest is won :
O happy ones and holy !
Lord, give us grace that we,
Like them the meek and lowly,
On high may dwell with Thee.

See how Thy foes their banners are unfurling;
Lord, while their darts envenomed they are hurling,
Thou canst preserve us.
3 Lord, Thou canst help when earthly armor faileth,
Lord, Thou canst save when deadly sin assaileth,
Lord, o'er Thy Rock nor death nor hell prevaileth ;
Grant us Thy peace, Lord.
4 Peace in our hearts, our evil thoughts assuaging.
Peace in Thy Church, where brothers are engaging.
Peace, when the world its busy war is waging,

Of her unending song.

To walk in Thine own guileless way,
To dread the touch of sin and shame,

Nor blast of sin too rudely blow,

Then life shall be Thy service, Lord,

4 Be known to us in breaking bread,
But do not then depart,
Saviour, abide with us, and spread
Thy table in our heart.
5 There sup with us in love Divine ;
Thy body and Thy blood.
That living bread, that heavenly wine,
Be our immortal food.

As Thou when here below,
Our souls the joys celestial seek
Which from Thy sorrows flow.

But by that word of grace.
In strength of which we travel on
To our abiding-place.

2 While all our hearts and all our songs 4 'Twas the same love that spread the feast
Join to admire the feast, That sweetly forced us in ;
Each of us cry, with thankful tongues, Else we had still refused to taste,
" Lx)rd, why was I a guest? And perished in our sin.
3 " Why was I made to hear Thy voice, 5 Pity the nations, O our God,
And enter while there's room, Constrain the earth to come ;
When thousands make a wretched choice, Send Thy victorious word abroad.
And rather starve than come? " 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.
Rev. Isaac Watts, 1707
324 (HOLY CROSS) CM.
1 HOW condescending and how kind
Was God's Eternal Son !
Our miser)' reached His heavenly mind,
And pity brought Him down. 4
2 He sunk beneath our heavy woes
To raise us to His throne ;
There's ne'er a gift His hand bestows
But cost His heart a groan. 5
3 This was compassion like a God,
That, when the Saviour knew
The price of pardon was His blood,
His pity ne'er withdrew.
Now, though He reigns exalted high,
His love is still as great;
Well He remembers Calvary,
Nor lets His saints forget.
Here let our hearts begin to melt
While we His death record,
And with our joy for pardoned guilt
Mourn that we pierced the Lord,

Here drink with Thee the royal wine of heaven;
Here would I lay aside each earthly load,
Here taste afresh the calm of sin forgiven.
3 This is the hour of banquet and of song ;
This is the heavenly table spread for me :
Here let me feast, and, feasting, still prolong
The brief, bright hour of fellowship with Thee.
4 I have no help but Thine, nor do I need
Another arm save Thine to lean upon :
It is enough, my Lord, enough indeed ;
My strength is in Thy might, Thy might alone.
5 Mine is the sin, but Thine the righteousness ;
Mine is the guilt, but Thine the cleansing blood ;
Here is my robe, my refuge, and my peace.
Thy blood. Thy righteousness, O Lord my God.

Yet, passing, points to the glad feast above,
Giving sweet foretaste of the festal joy,

2 I am not worthy to be thought Thy child,
Nor sit the last and lowest at Thy board ;
Too long a wanderer and too oft beguiled,
I only ask one reconciling word.
3 One word from Thee, my Lord, one smile, one look,
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 And is not mercy Thy prerogative —
Free mercy, boundless, fathomless, Divine?
Me, Lord, the chief of sinners, me forgive.
And Thine the greater glory, only Thine.
5 I hear Thy voice ; Thou bid'st me come and rest ;
I come, I kneel, I clasp Thy pierced feet ;
Thou bid'st me take my place, a welcome guest
Among Thy saints, and of Thy banquet eat.
6 My praise can only breathe itself in prayer,
My prayer can only lose itself in Thee ;
Dwell Thou for ever in my heart, and there,
Lord, let me sup with Thee ; sup Thou with me.

By one blest chain of loving rite
Until He come :

Until the ancient graves be stirred,
And, with the great commanding word,

Is here in this memorial bread,
And so our feeble love is fed
Until He come.

Let not our hearts be desolate,

Until He come.

That Himself to thee He giveth?

Fill thy lips to overflowing

Who this heavenly table spread :
On this day so glad and holy,
To each longing spirit lowly
Giveth He the living Bread.
Here the King hath spread His table.
Whereon eyes of faith are able
Christ our Passover to trace :
Shadows of the law are going,
Light and life and truth inflowing,
Night to day is giving place.
Lo, this angels' food descending
Heavenly love is hither sending.
Hungry lips on earth to feed :
So the paschal lamb was given.
So the manna came from heaven,
Isaac was His type indeed.
O Good Shepherd, Bread life-giving,

With all saints will Thee adore.

3 Mighty Victim from the sky,
; Powers of hell beneath Thee lie ;
Death is conquered in the fight,
Thou hast brought us life and light :
Paschal triumph, paschal joy,
Only sin can this destroy ;
From the death of sin set free
Souls re-born, dear Lord, in Thee.

Until we join the Church above,

Death's dark angel sheathes his sword

With sincerity and love
Eat we manna from above.

2 Give tongues of fire and hearts of love 4 O Spirit of the Lord, prepare
To preach the reconciling word ; All the round earth her God to meet;
Give power and unction from above, Breathe Thou abroad like morning air,
Whene'er the joyful sound is heard. Till hearts of stone begin to beat.
3 Be darkness, at Thy coming, light ; 5 Baptize the nations ; far and nigh
Confusion, order in Thy path ; The triumphs of the cross record ;
Souls without strength inspire with might ; The Name of Jesus glorify.
Bid mercy triumph over wrath. Till every kindred call Him Lord.
6 God from eternity hath willed
All flesh shall His salvation see :
So be the Father's love fulfilled,
The Saviour's sufferings crowned through Thee.
James Monfp;oniery, 1813
340 (MENDON) L. M.
1 " GO, preach My gospel," saith the 3 " Teach all the nations My commands ;
Lord ; I'm with you till the world shall end ;
" Bid the whole earth My grace receive ; All power is trusted in My hands,
He shall be saved that trusts My word ; I can destroy, and I defend."
He shall be lost that won't believe.
4 He spake, and light shone round His
2 " I'll make your great commission known, head ;
And ye shall prove My gospel true. On a bright cloud to heaven He rode ;
By all the works that I have done, They to the farthest nations spread
By all the wonders ye shall do. The grace of their ascended God.

2 How charming is their voice !
How sweet the tidings are !
" Zion, behold thy Saviour King ;
He reigns and triumphs here."
3 How happy are our ears
That hear this joyful sound,
Which kings and prophets waited for,
And sought, but never found !
4 How blessed are our eyes
That see this heavenly light !
Prophets and kings desired it long,
But died without the sight.
5 The watchmen join their voice,
And tuneful notes employ ;
Jerusalem breaks forth in songs.
And deserts learn the joy.
6 The Lord makes bare His arm
Through all the earth abroad ;
Let every nation now behold
Their Saviour and their God.

2 Strong in the Lord of hosts,
And in His mighty power,
Who in the strength of Jesus trusts
Is more than conqueror.
3 Stand then in His great might,
With all His strength endued;
But take, to arm you for the fight.
The panoply of God :
4 That, having all things done,
And all your conflicts passed,
Ye may o'ercome through Christ alone,
And stand entire at last.
5 From strength to strength go on ;
Wrestle, and fight, and pray ;
Tread all the powers of darkness down,
And win the well-fought day.
6 Still let the Spirit cry
In all His soldiers, " Come,"
Till Christ the Lord descends from high.
And takes the conquerors home.
Rev. Charles Wesley, 1749

Each in his office wait,
Observant of His heavenly word.
And watchful at His gate.
2 Let all your lamps be bright.
And trim the golden flame ;
•Gird up your loins, as in His sight.
For awful is His Name.
3 Watch : 'tis your Lord's command,
And while we speak. He's near;
Mark the first signal of His hand.
And ready all appear.
4 O happy ser\^ant he
In such a posture found !
He shall his Lord with rajnure see.
And be with honor crowned.
5 Christ shall the banquet spread
With His own royal hand,
And raise that favorite servant's head
Amidst the angelic band.

If He shall praise thee, if He deign
Thy willing heart to mark and cheer ;
No toil for Him shall be in vain.
Go, labor on while it is day,
The world's dark night is hastening on :
Speed, speed thy work, cast sloth away ;
It is not thus that souls are won.
Toil on, faint not, keep watch and pray ;
Be wise the erring soul to win ;
Go forth into the world's highway,
Compel the wanderer to come in.

For toil comes rest, for exile home ;
Soon shalt thou hear the Bridegroom's voice,
The midnight peal, "Behold, I come."

1 O CHRIST, our true and only Light,
Illumine those who sit in night ;
Let those afar now hear Thy voice.
And in Thy fold with us rejoice.
2 And all who else have strayed from Thee,
O gently seek ; Thy healing be
To every wounded conscience given ;
And let them also share Thy heaven.
3 O make the deaf to hear Thy word ;
And teach the dumb to speak, dear Lord,
Who dare not yet the faith avow
Though secretly they hold it now.
4 Shine on the darkened and the cold ;
Recall the wanderers from Thy fold ;
Unite those now who walk apart ;
Confirm the weak and doubting heart :
5 So they with us may evermore
Such grace with wondering thanks adore,
And endless praise to Thee be given
By all the Church in earth and heaven.

2 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
The trumpet call obey ;
Forth to the mighty conflict
In this His glorious day :
Ye that are men now serve Him
Against unnumbered foes ;
Let courage rise with danger,
And strength to strength oppose.
3 Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
Stand in His strength alone ;
The arm of flesh will fail you,
Ye dare not trust your own :
Put on the gospel armor,
Each piece put on with prayer ;
Where duty calls, or danger,
Be never wanting there.
Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
The strife will not be long ;
This day the noise of battle.
The next the victor's song :
To him that overcometh
A crown of life shall be ;
He with the King of Glory
Shall reign eternally.

2 O Christian brothers, glorious
Shall be the conflict's close ;
The cross hath been victorious,
And shall be o'er its foes :
Faith is our battle-token ;
Our Leader all controls ;
Our trophies, fetters broken ;
Our captives, ransomed souls.
3 Not unto us, Tx)rd Jesus,
To Thee all j^raise be due,
Whose blood-bought mercy frees us,
Has freed our brethren too.
Not unto us ; in glory
The angels catch the strain.
And cast their crowns before Thee
Exultingly again.
4 Captain of our salvation,
Thy presence we adore ;
Praise, glor}', adoration
Be Thine for evermore :
Still on in conflict pressing
On Thee Thy people call.
Thee King of kings confessing,
Thee crowning Lord of all.

We journey in its light :
The crown awaits the conquest :

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 :
Who follows in his 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 :
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?
A noble army, men and boys,
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.

Man may trouble and distress me,
'Twill but drive me to Thy breast ;
Life with trials hard may press me,
Heaven will bring me sweeter rest :
O 'tis not in grief to harm me
While Thy love is left to me ;
O 'twere not in joy to charm me.
Were that joy unmixed with Thee.
Take, my soul, thy full salvation,
Rise o'er sin and fear and care ;
Joy to find in every station
Something still to do or bear ;
Think what Spirit dwells within thee,
What a Father's smile is thine,
What a Saviour died to win thee :
Child of heaven, shouldst thou repine?
Haste, then, on from grace to glory.
Armed by faith, and winged by prayer ;
Heaven's eternal day's before thee,
God's own hand shall guide thee there.
Soon shall close thy earthly mission ;

2 Toiling early in the morning,
Catching moments through the day,
Nothing small or lowly scorning,
So we work, and watch, and pray ;
Gathering gladly
Free-will offerings by the way :
3 Not for selfish praise or glory,
Not for objects nothing worth,
But to send the blessed story
Of the gospel o'er the earth,
Telling mortals
Of our Lord and Saviour's birth.
4 Up and ever at our calling.
Till in death our lips are dumb,
Or till, sin's dominion falling,
Christ shall in His kingdom come,
And His children
Reach their everlasting home.
5 Steadfast, then, in our endeavor,
Heavenly Father, may we be ;
And for ever, and for ever,
We will give the praise to Thee ;
Alleluia !
Singing, all eternity.

Work through the sunny noon ;
Fill brightest hours with labor,
Rest comes sure and soon ;

Something to keep in store ;
Work, for the night is coming,
When man works no more.

Work while the night is darkening.

2 If you cannot cross the ocean,
And the heathen lands explore,
You can find the heathen nearer,
You can help them at your door.
If you cannot give your thousands,
You can give the widow's mite ;
And the least you give for Jesus
Will be precious in His sight.
3 If you cannot speak like angels,
If you cannot preach like Paul,
You can tell the love of Jesus,
You can say He died for all.

Trust ye in His word, be strong ;
For His promises are sure,
His rewards for aye endure.
2 His no crowns that pass away,
His no palm that sees decay,
His the joy that shall not fade.
His the light that knows no shade ;
If you cannot rouse the wicked
With the judgment's dread alarms,
You can lead the little children
To the Saviour's waiting arms.
Let none hear you idly saying.
"There is nothing I can do,"
While the souls of men are dying,
And the Master calls for you :
Take the task He gives you gladly,
Let His work your pleasure be ;
Answer quickly when He calleth,
" Here am I ; send me, send me."
Rev. Daniel March, 1868
3 His the home for spirits blest.
Where He gives them peaceful rest,
Far above the starry skies.

Things that perish in the grasp :
Lift your hearts, then, to the skies ;
God Himself shall be your prize.
Praise we now with saints at rest

For His promises are sure,
His rewards shall aye endure.

As Jesus did for men ;

As Jesus hungered then.
The cross that Jesus carried
He carried as your due ;
The crown that Jesus weareth
He weareth it for you.

The sorrows ye endure,
The manifold temptations
That death alone can cure,

Of right celestial worth ?

Set up to heaven on earth?

Ready to run the weary race,
To bear the heavy weight :
No voice of thunder to expect,
But follow calm and still ;
For love can easily divine
The One Beloved's will.
3 Thus may I serve Thee, gracious Lord
Thus ever Thine alone.

The purchase Thou hast won ;
Through evil or through good report
Still keeping by Thy side ;
And by my life or by my death
Let Christ be magnified.

In this dear service fly.
How rapidly the closing hour,
The time of rest, draws nigh.
When all the faithful gather home,
A joyful company ;
And ever where the Master is
Shall His blest servants be.

2 Thus shall we best proclaim abroad
The honors of our Saviour God ;
When His salvation reigns within,
And grace subdues the power of sin.
3 Our flesh and sense must be denied,
Passion and envy, lust and pride ;
While justice, temperance, truth, and love,
Our inward piety approve.
4 Religion bears our spirits up,
While we expect that blessed hope,
The bright appearance of the Lord ;
And faith stands leaning on His word.

Who bore the world's sad weight,
We, in their crowded loneUness,
Would seek the desolate.

In this wide world of ill ;

4 To comfort and to bless,
To find a balm for woe,
To tend the lone and fatherless,
Is angels' work below.
5 The captive to release,
To God the lost to bring,
To teach the way of life and peace.
It is a Christ-like thing.
2 May we Thy bounties thus
As stewards true receive.
And gladly, as Thou blessest us.
To Thee our first-fruits give.
3 O hearts are bruised and dead.
And homes are bare and cold,
And lambs for whom the Shepherd bled
Are straying from the fold.

1 O PRAISE our God to-day,
His constant mercy bless.
Whose love hath helped us on our way,
And granted us success.
2 His arm the strength imparts
Our daily toil to bear ;
His grace alone inspires our hearts
Each other's load to share.
3 O happiest work below,
Earnest of joy above.
For souls redeemed, for sins forgiven.
For means of grace and hopes of heaven,
Father, what can to Thee be given
Who givest all ?
We lose what on ourselves we spend ;
We have as treasure without end
Whatever, Lord, to Thee we lend
Who givest all.
Whatever, Lord, we lend to Thee,
Repaid a thousand-fold will be ;
Then gladly will we give to Thee
Who givest all ;
To Thee, from whom we all derive
Our life, our gifts, our power to give ;
O may we ever with Thee live
Who givest all.
Bishop Christopher Wordsworth, 1863. (Teict of iS?")
To sweeten many a cup of woe
By deeds of holy love !
4 Lord, may it be our choice
This blessed rule to keep,
" Rejoice with them that do rejoice,
And weep with them that weep."
5 O praise our God to-day.
His constant mercy bless,
Whose love hath helped us on our way.
And granted us success.

2 O joy, to see that Master dear !
O joy, to live with Him so near !
O joy, that gentle voice to hear !
3 O 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 THOU through suffering perfect made, 3 O loving Saviour, Thou canst cure
On whom the bitter cross was laid ; The pains and woes Thou didst endure ;
In hours of sickness, grief, and pain. For all who need, Physician great.
No sufferer turns to Thee in vain. Thy healing balm we supplicate.
2 The halt, the maimed, the sick, the blind, 4 But. O far more, let each keen pain
Sought not in vain Thy tendance kind ; And hour of woe be heavenly gain.
Now in Thy poor Thyself we see, Each stroke of Thy chastising rod
And minister through them to Thee. Bring back the wanderer nearer God.
5 O heal the bruised heart within ;
O save our souls all sick with sin j
Give life and health in bounteous store.
That we may praise Thee evermore.

Raise your banner in the sky ;
Let it float there wide unfurled ;
Bear it onward ; lift it high.
'Mid the homes of want and woe,
Strangers to the living word,
Let the Saviour's herald go,
Let the voice of hope be heard.
Where the shadows deepest lie,
Carry truth's unsullied ray ;
Where are crimes of blackest dye,
There the saving sign display.

Tell of realms where sorrows cease ;

Let light and order spring.

From shore toshore, from earth to heaven,

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.

Steals into every heart,
And glorifies with duty
Life's poorest, humblest part ;
Thou robest in Thy splendor
The simple ways of men.
And helpest them to render
Light back to Thee again.
3 Light of the world, before Thee
Our spirits prostrate fall ;
We worship, we adore Thee,

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 are strown ;
The heathen in his blindness
Bows down to wood and stone.
3 Can we, whose souls are lighted
With wisdom from on high,
Can we to men benighted
The lamp of life deny?
Salvation ! O salvation !
The joyful sound proclaim,
Till each remotest nation
Has learned Messiah's Name.

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

In bliss returns to reign.

2 A holy war those servants wage ;
Mysteriously at strife,
The powers of heaven and hell engage
For more than death or life.
Ye armies of the living God,
His sacramental host,
Where hallowed footsteps never trod
Take your appointed post :
3 Though few and small and weak your
bands.
Strong in your Captain's strength
Go to the conquest of all lands ;
All must be His at length.
Those spoils at His victorious feet
You shall rejoice to lay.
And lay yourselves, as trophies meet.
In His great judgment-day.
4 O fear not, faint not, halt not now ;
In Jesus' Name be strong ;
To Him shall all the nations bow,
And sing with you this song :
•• Ujilifted are the gates of brass,
The bars of iron yield ;
Behold the King of Glory pass ;
The cross hath won the field."

2 Who are these of dazzling brightness, 4 These are they whose hearts were riven,
These in God's own truth arrayed, Sore with woe and anguish tried,
Clad in robes of purest whiteness. Who in prayer full oft have striven
Robes whose lustre ne'er shall fade. With the God they glorified ;
Ne'er be touched by time's rude hand ? Now, their painful conflict o'er,
Whence comes all this glorious band ? God has bid them weep no more.
3 These are they who have contended
For their Saviour's honor long.
Wrestling on till life was ended.
Following not the sinful throng ;
These, who well the fight sustained,
Triumph through the Lamb have
gained.
5 These like priests have watched and
waited,
Offering up to Christ their will ;
Soul and body consecrated,
Day and night they serve Him still :
Now in God's most holy place
Blest they stand before His face.
Lo, the Lamb Himself now feeds them
On Mount Zion's pastures fair ;
From His central throne He leads them
By the living fountains there ;
Lamb and Shepherd, Good Supreme,
Free He gives the cooling stream.

2 The fire Divine their steps that led
Still goeth bright before us,
The heavenly shield, around them spread,
Is still high holden o'er us ;
The grace those sinners that subdued,
The strength those weaklings that re-
newed,
Doth vanquish, doth restore us.
3 The cleaving sins that brought them low
Are still our souls oppressing,
The te.irs that from their eyes did flow
Fall fast, our shame confessing ;
As with Thee, Lord, prevailed their cry.
So our strong prayer ascends on high,
And bringeth down Thy blessing.
4 Their joy unto their Lord we
bring,
Their song to us descendeth ;
The Spirit who in them did sing
To us His music lendeth :
His song in them, in us, is one ;
We raise it high, we send it on, —
The song that never endeth.
5 Ye saints to come, take up the strain.
The same sweet theme endeavor ;
Unbroken be the golden chain !
Keep on the song for ever !
Safe in the same dear dwelling-place,
Rich with the same eternal grace,
Bless the same boundless Giver.

2 Apostles, prophets, martyrs,
And all the sacred throng
Who wear the spotless raiment,
Who raise the ceaseless song ;
For these, passed on before us,
Saviour, we Thee adore.
And, walking in their footsteps,
Would serve Thee more and more.
3 Then praise we God the Father,
And praise we Cod the Son,
And God the Holy Spirit,
Eternal Three in C)ne ;
Till all the ransomed number
Fall down before the Throne,
And honor, power, and glory
Ascribe to God alone.

In the way the fathers trod ;
They are happy now, and we
Soon their happiness shall see.
3 Shout, ye little flock and blest ;
Ye on Jesus' throne shall rest ;
There your seat is now prepared,
There's your kingdom and reward.
4 Lift your eyes, ye sons of light,
Zioii's city is in sight ;
There our endless home shall be,
There our Lord we soon shall see.
5 Fear not, brethren ; joyful stand
On the borders of your land ;
Jesus Christ, your Father's Son,
Bids you undismayed go on.
6 Lord, obediently we go,
Gladly leaving all below ;
Only Thou our Leader be,
And we still will follow Thee.

And with him bear a part. Through every bosom flows,
When sorrow flows from eye to eye, And union sweet and dear esteem
And joy from heart to heart ; In every action glows.
3 When, free from envy, scorn, and pride, 5 Love is the golden chain that binds
Our wishes all above, The happy souls above ;

And show a brother's love ; His bosom glow with love.

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.
Alleluia ! songs of gladness
Suit not always souls forlorn :
Alleluia ! sounds of sadness
Midst our joyful strains are borne ;
For in this dark world of sorrow
VVe with tears our sins must mourn.
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 saved by grace alone ;
Walking in all Thy ways, we find

And we in hymns below.
3 Thee in Thy glorious realm they praise,
And bow before Thy throne.

The kingdoms are but one.

From hence our spirits rise ;
And he that in Thy statutes treads
Shall meet Thee in the skies.

And have washed their robes in blood,
Washed them in the blood of Jesus;
Tried they were, and firm they stood ;
Mocked, imprisoned, stoned, tormented,
Sawn asunder, slain with sword.
They have conquered death and Satan
By the might of Christ the Lord.

They have triumphed, following
Thee the Captain of salvation,
Thee their Saviour and their King ;

O'er His ransomed people shed,
Chasing far the gloom and terror,
Brightening all the path we tread ;
One the object of our journey,
One the faith which never tires,
One the earnest looking fonvard,
One the hope our God inspires ;
One the strain that lips of thousands
Lift as from the heart of one.
One the conflict, one the peril,
One the march in God begun ;
One the gladness of rejoicing
On the far eternal shore.
Where the One Almighty Father
Reigns in love for evermore.
4 Onward, therefore, pilgrim brothers,
Onward, with the cross our aid ;
Bear its shame, and fight its battle,
Till we rest beneath its shade :

Soon the rending of the tomb ;
Then the scattering of all shadows,
And the end of toil and gloom.

Ere to His throne He passed,
No longer unfulfilled remain,

And part is crossing now.

And long to see that happy coast.

A sacrifice of nobler name
And richer blood than they.
3 My faith would lay her hand
On that dear head of Thine,
While like a penitent I stand,
And there confess my sin.
428 (ST. ANDREW) S. M
1 NOT what these hands have done
Can save this guilty soul ;
Not what this toiling flesh has borne
Can make my spirit whole.
2 Not what I feel or do
Can give me peace with God ;
Not all my prayers and sighs and tears
Can bear my awful load.
3 Thy work alone, O Christ,
Can ease this weight of sin ;
Thy blood alone, O Lamb of God,
Can give me peace within.
4 My soul looks back to see
The burdens Thou didst bear,
When hanging on the cursed tree,
And hopes her guilt was there.
5 Believing, we rejoice
To see the curse remove ;
We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice,
And sing His bleeding love.
Rev. Isaac Watts, 1709
4 Thy love to me, O God,
Not mine, O Lord, to Thee,
Can rid me of this dark unrest,
And set my spirit free.
5 Thy grace alone, O God,
To me can pardon speak ;
Thy power alone, O Son of God,
Can this sore bondage break.
6 I bless the Christ of God ;
I rest on love Divine ;
And, with unfaltering lip and heart.
I call this Saviour mine.

2 O loving wisdom of our God !
When all was sin and shame,
A second Adam to the fight
And to the rescue came.
3 O wisest love ! that flesh and blood.
Which did in Adam fail,
Should strive afresh against their foe,
Should strive and should prevail;

Should flesh and blood refine,

In Man for man the foe,
The double agony in Man

To suffer and to die.

Most sure in all His ways.

2 Emmanuel, didst 'I'hou take our place
To set us in Thine own?
Didst Thou our low estate embrace
To lift us to Thy throne?
3 Didst Thou fulfil each righteous deed,
God's perfect will express,
That we the unfaithful ones might plead
Thy perfect faithfulness?
4 On Thy pure soul did dread and gloom
In that drear garden rise?
Are ours the brightness and the bloom
Of Thine own Paradise?
5 For Thee the Father's hidden face?
For Thee the bitter cry?
For us the Father's endless grace,
The song of victory ?
6 Our load of sin and misery
Didst Thou the Sinless bear?
Thy spotless robe of purity
Do we the sinners wear?
7 Lord Jesus, is it even so?
Have we been loved thus?
What love can we on Thee bestow
Who hast exchanged with us?
8 Thou, who our very place didst take,
Dwell in our very heart :
Thou, who Thy portion ours dost make,
Thyself, Thyself, impart.

PLUNGED in a gulf of dark despair
We wretched sinners lay,
^\"ithout one cheerful beam of hope,
Or spark of glimmering day :
With pitying eyes the Prince of grace
Beheld our helpless grief;
He saw, and — O amazing love ! —
He ran to our relief.
Down from the shining seats above
With joyful haste He fled,
Entered the grave in mortal flesh,
And dwelt among the dead.
O for this love let rocks and hills
Their lasting silence break.
And all harmonious human tongues
The Saviour's praises speak.
Angels, assist our mighty joys,
Strike all your harjis of gold ;
But when you raise your highest notes,
His love can ne'er be told.

One there was ordained to languish,
Guiltless, in Gethsemane ;
One there was who died in anguish,
Innocent, on Calvary.
Jesus was the Burden-bearer,
God's own Son the Sacrifice ;
Of the griefs of man the Sharer,
Of his soul the Ransom-price.
'Tis the Christ, the Ever-living,
Ever-loving, Ever-blest,
By the Comforter still giving
Pardon, holiness, and rest.
5 Can the love so freely given.
Can the blood so freely shed,
Fail to draw the earth to heaven,
Fail to bring alive its dead ?
6 Rise, O children of the Father,
Stand, ye brothers of the Son,
In unyielding ranks together
Till the crown of Christ be won ;
7 Till the lands of sin and sorrow.
Darker than the ancient night,
Shall behold the promised morrow
Beam on them with saving light.

Long years were spent for me
In weariness and woe,
That through eternity
Thy glory I might know :
Long years were spent for me ;
Have I spent one for Thee ?
Thy Father's home of light,
Thy rainbow-circled throne,
Were left for earthly night,
For wanderings sad and lone
Yea, all was left for me ;
Have I left aught for Thee ?

Down from Thy home above
Salvation full and free.
Thy pardon and Thy love :
Great gifts Thou broughtest me ;

And joy with suffering blent :

SALVATION ! O the joyful sound ;
'Tis pleasure to our ears,
A sovereign balm for every wound,
A cordial for our fears.

At hell's dark door we lay ;
But we arise, by grace Divine,
To see a heavenly day.

While all the armies of the sky
Conspire to raise the sound.

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 :
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.
There is plentiful redemption
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.

The foe is stern and eager,
The fight is fierce and long ;
But Thou hast made us mighty,
And stronger than the strong.
" And whosoever cometh
I will not cast him out."
O patient love of Jesus
Which drives away our doubt ;
Which calls us, very sinners,
Unworthy though we be
Of love so free and boundless,
To come, dear Lord, to Thee !
William C. Dix, 1867
2 " Come unto Me, dear children,
And I will give you light."
O loving voice of Jesus
Which comes to cheer the night !
Our hearts were filled with sadness.
And we had lost our way ;
But morning brings us gladness,
And songs the break of day.
3 " Come unto Me, ye fainting.
And I will give you life."
O peaceful voice of Jesus
Which comes to end our strife !

2 To-day Thy gate is open,
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.
4 O all-embracing mercy,
Thou ever-open door,
What shall I do without thee
When heart and eyes run o'er?
When all things seem against me,
To drive me to despair,
I know one gate is open.
One ear will hear my prayer.

2 Tell me the story slowly,
That I may take it m,
That wonderful redemption,
God's remedy for sin :
Tell me the story often,
For I forget so soon ;
The early dew of morning
Has passed away at noon.
3 Tell me the story softly,
With earnest tones, and grave ;
Remember, I'm the sinner
Whom Jesus came to save :
Tell me the story always,
If you would really be.
In any time of trouble,
A comforter to me.
4 Tell me the same old story
When you have cause to fear
That this world's empty glory
Is costing me too dear :
Yes, and when that world's glory
Is dawning on my soul,
Tell me the old, old story,
" Christ Jesus makes thee whole."

1 " TAKE up thy cross," the Saviour said,
" If thou wouldst My disciple be ;
Take up thy cross with willing heart.
And humbly follow after Me."
2 Take up thy cross ; let not its weight
Fill thy weak soul with vain alarm ;
His strength shall bear thy spirit up,
And brace thy heart, and nerve thine
arm.
3 Take up thy cross ; nor heed the shame,
And let thy foolish pride be still ;
Sinners, turn ; why will ye die ?
God, the Spirit, asks you why ;
God, who all your lives hath strove.
Wooed you to embrace His love :
Will you not the grace receive ?
Will you still refuse to live ?
Why, ye long-sought sinners, why
Will ye grieve your God, and die ?
Rev. Charles Wesley, 1741
Thy Lord refused not e'en to die
Upon a cross, on Calvary's hill.
Take up thy cross, then, in His strength,
And calmly sin's wild deluge brave ;
'Twill guide thee to a better home,
It points to glory o'er the grave.
Take up thy cross, and follow on,
Nor think till death to lay it down ;
For only he who bears the cross
May hope to wear the glorious crown.

And thorns Thy brow encircle.

1 TO-DAY the Saviour calls :
Ye wanderers, come ;

2 To-day the Saviour calls :
O listen now ;
Within these sacred walls
To Jesus bow.
O love that passeth knowledge.
So patiently to wait I
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 you, My children.
And will ye treat Me so? "
O Lord, with shame and sorrow
We open now the door ;
Dear Saviour, enter, enter,
And leave us nevermore.

3 To-day the Saviour calls :
For refuge fly ;
The storm of vengeance falls.
Ruin is nigh.

Pass in, pass in, and be the Bridegroom's guest :
Room, room, still room ! O enter, enter now.

Make haste, make haste ; 'tis not too full for thee :
Room, room, still room ! O enter, enter now.

The gate of love ; it is not yet too late :
Room, room, still room ! O enter, enter now.

That cup of everlasting joy is free :
Room, room, still room ! O enter, enter now.

Dare not lift themselves to Thee ;
Yet Thou canst interpret sighs :

To Thy bosom I would flee ;

Mercy still reser\'ed for me?

Long provoked Him to His face.
Would not hearken to His calls.
Grieved Him by a thousand falls.

By the heaven Thou dost prepare,
By Thy promises to prayer.
We beseech Thee, hear us.

Kindled His relentings are ;
Me He now delights to spare ;
Cries, " How shall I give Thee up?"
Lets the lifted thunder drop.
There for me the Saviour stands,
Shows His wounds, and spreads His
hands ;
God is Love : I know, I feel ;
Jesus weeps, but loves me still.

2 Create my nature pure within, 5 My soul lies humbled in the dust,
And form my soul averse to sin ; And owns Thy dreadful sentence just ;
Let Thy good Spirit ne'er depart, Look down, O Lord, with pitying eye,
Nor hide Thy presence from my heart. And save the soul condemned to die.
3 I cannot live without Thy light.
Cast out and banished from Thy sight ;
Thy holy joys, my God, restore,
And guard me, that I fall no more.
4 A broken heart, my God, my King,
Is all the sacrifice I bring ;
The God of grace will ne'er despise
A broken heart for sacrifice.

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 all my powers shall join to bless

WITH broken heart and contrite sigh,
A trembling sinner. Lord, I cry ;
Thy pardoning grace is rich and free :
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 :
O God, be merciful to me.
Far off I stand with tearful eyes.
Nor dare uplift tiiem to the skies ;
All I have been :
Purge Thou my sin away,
Wash Thou my soul this day ;
Lord, make me clean.
Faithful and just art Thou,
Forgiving all ;
Loving and kind art Thou
When poor ones call :
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 I walk with Thee,
The loved Unseen ;
Leaning on Thee, my God.
Guided along the road.
Nothing between.
Rev. Horatius P.onar, 1866
But Thou dost all my anguish see :
O God, be merciful to me.
Nor alms, nor deeds that I have done.
Can for a single sin 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 The Shepherd sought His sheep,
The Father sought His child ;
They followed me o'er vale and hill,
O'er deserts waste and wild :
They found me nigh to death,
Famished and faint and lone ;
They bound me with the bands of love,
They saved the wandering one.
3 Jesus my Shepherd is ;
'Twas He that loved my soul,
'Twas He that washed me in His blood,
'Twas He that made me whole ;
'Twas He that sought the lost,
That found the wandering sheep,
'Twas He that brought me to the fold,
'Tis He that still doth keep.
I was a wandering sheep,
I would not be controlled ;
But now I love my Shepherd's voice,
I love, I love the fold.
I was a wayward child,
I once preferred to roam ;
But now I love my Father's voice,
I love, I love His home.

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.

2 Thy mercy-gates are open wide
To them that mourn their sin ;
O shut them not against us, Lord,
But let us enter in.
3 We need not to confess our fault,
For surely Thou canst tell ;
What we have done, and what we are,
Thou knowest very well.
4 Wherefore, to beg and to entreat,
With tears we come to Thee,
As children that have done amiss
P"all at their father's knee.
5 And need we, then, O Lord, repeat
The blessing which we crave,
\\nien Thou dost know, before we speak,
The thing that we would have ?
6 Mercy, O Lord, mercy we seek.
This is the total sum ;
For mercy. Lord, is all our prayer ;
O let Thy mercy come.

Hear our solemn litany.
3 By the sacred griefs that wept
O'er the grave where Lazarus slept.
By the boding tears that flowed
Over Salem's loved abode.
By the anguished sigh that told
Treachery lurked within Thy fold, —
From Thy seat above the sky
Hear our solemn litany.
By Thine hour of dire despair,
By Thine agony of prayer.
By the cross, the nail, the thorn,
Piercing spear, and torturing scorn.
By the gloom that veiled the skies
O'er the dreadful sacrifice, —
Listen to our humble cry.
Hear our solemn litany.
By Thy deep expiring groan.
By the sad sepulchral stone,
By the vault whose dark abode
Held in vain the rising God, —
O from earth to heaven restored.
Mighty, re-ascended Lord,
Listen, listen to the cry
Of our solemn litany.

2 So vile I am, how dare I hope to stand
In the pure glory of that holy land?
Before the whiteness of that throne appear?
Yet there are hands stretched out to draw me near.
3 The while I fain would tread the heavenly way,
Evil is ever with me day by day;
Yet on mine ears the gracious tidings fall,
** Repent, confess, thou shalt be loosed from all."
4 It is the voice of Jesus that I hear ;
His are the hands stretched out to draw me near.
And His the blood that can for all atone.
And set me faultless there before the throne.
5 O great Absolver, grant my soul may wear
The lowliest garb of penitence and prayer,
That in the Father's courts my glorious dress
May be the garment of Thy righteousness.
6 Yea, Thou wilt answer for me, righteous Lord;
Thine all the merits, mine the great reward;
Thine the sharp thorns, and mine the golden crown;
Mine the life won, and Thine the life laid down.

5 The crowd of cares, the weightiest cross,
Seem trifles less than light ;
Earth looks so little and so low
When faith shines full and bright.
6 O happy, happy that I am !
If thou canst be, O faith,
The treasure that thou art in life,
What wilt thou be in death ?

2 Remember Thy pure word of grace,
Remember Calvary's tree,
Remember all Thy dying groans,
And then remember me.
3 Thou wondrous Advocate with God,
I yield my soul to Thee ;
While Thou art pleading on the throne,
Dear Lord, remember me.
4 Lord, I am guilty, I am vile.
But Thy salvation's free ;
Then, in Thine all-abounding grace,
Dear Lord, remember me.
5 Howe'er forsaken or despised,
Howe'er oppressed I be.
Howe'er forgotten here on earth.
Do Thou remember me.
6 And when I close my eyes in death,
And human help shall flee,
Then, then, my dear redeeming God,
O then remember me.

1 APPROACH, my soul, the mercy-seat
Where Jesus answers prayer ;
There humbly fall before His feet.
For none can perish there.
2 Thy promise is my only plea ;
With this I venture nigh :
Thou callest burdened souls to Thee,
And such, O Lord, am L
3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin,
By Satan sorely pressed.
By war without, and fears within,
I come to Thee for rest.
4 Be Thou my Shield and Hiding-place,
That, sheltered near Thy side,
I may my fierce accuser face,
And tell him. Thou hast died.
5 O wondrous love ! to bleed and die,
To bear the cross and shame.
That guilty sinners, such as I,
Might plead Thy gracious Name !

2 I lay my wants on Jesus ;
All fulness dwells in Him ;
He heals all my diseases,
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.
(See also Waring, No. 527)
I love the Name of Jesus,
Emmanuel, Christ, the Lord ;
Like fragrance on the breezes
His Name abroad is poured.
4 I long to be like Jesus,
Meek, loving, lowly, mild ;
I long to be like Jesus,
The Father's holy Child :
I long to be with Jesus
Amid the heavenly throng.
To sing with saints His praises,
To learn the angels' song.

2 Heaven's arches rang
When the angels sang,
Proclaiming Thy royal degree ;
But of lowly birth
Didst Thou come to earth,
And in great humility :
O come to my heart, Lord Jesus,
There is room in my heart for Thee.
3 The foxes found rest,
And the birds their nest.
In the shade of the forest tree ;
But Thy couch was the sod,
O Thou Son of God,
In the deserts of Galilee :
O come to my heart, Lord Jesus,
There is room in my heart for Thee.
4 Thou camest, O Lord,
With the living word
That should set Thy people free ;
But with mocking scorn.
And with crown of thorn,
They bore Thee to Calvary :
O come to my heart. Lord Jesus,
Tliy cross is my only plea.
5 When heaven's arches shall ring,
And her choirs shall sing.
At Thy coming to victory.
Let Thy voice call me home.
Saying, " Yet there is room.
There is room at My side for thee."
And my heart shall rejoice. Lord Jesus,
When Thou comest and callest for me.

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

Other refuge have I none ;
Hangs my helpless soul on Thee ;
Leave, ah ! leave me not alone,
Still support and comfort me.
All my trust on Thee is stayed,
All my help from Thee I bring ;
Cover my defenceless head
With the shadow of Thy wing.
Wilt Thou not regard my call?
Wilt Thou not accept my prayer?
Lo, I sink, I faint, I fall !
Lo, on Thee I cast my care ;
Reach me out Thy gracious hand !
While I of Thy strength receive,
Hoping against hope I stand,
Dying, and behold I live !
4 Thou, O Christ, art all I want ;
More than all in Thee I find :
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint.
Heal the sick, and lead the blind.
Just and holy is Thy Name ;
I am all unrighteousness ;
False and full of sin I am.
Thou art full of truth and grace.
5 Plenteous grace with Thee is found,
Grace to cover all my sin ;
Let the healing streams abound ;
Make and keep me pure within.
Thou of life the Fountain art.
Freely let me take of Thee ;
Spring Thou up within my heart.
Rise to all eternity.

2 When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest upon unchanging grace ;
In every rough and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand ;
All other ground is sinking sand.
3 His oath, His covenant, and His blood
Support me in the sinking flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my Hope and Stay.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand ;
All other ground is sinking sand.
4 When I shall launch in worlds unseen,
O may I then be found in Him ;
Dressed in His righteousness alone.
Faultless to stand before the throne.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand ;
All other ground is sinking sand.

Humbly I confess my sin ;
At Thy feet, O Father, foiling,
To Thy household take me in.
Freely now to Thee I proffer
This relenting heart of mine ;
Freely life and soul I offer.
Gift unworthy love like Thine.

On that sacrifice relying,
Now I look in hope to Thee :

Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire ;
As Thou hast died for me,
O may my love to Thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire.
3 While life's dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread.
Be Thou my Guide ;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow's tears away.
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.

When death's cold, sullen stream

We know no help but Thee :

As Thine in heaven to be.

1 AM I a soldier of the cross,
A follower of the Lamb,
And shall I fear to own His cause,
Or blush to speak His Name?
2 Must I be carried to the skies
On flowery beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize,
And sailed through bloody seas?
3 Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
To help me on to God?
3 'Tis God's all-animating voice
That calls thee from on high ;
'Tis His own hand presents the prize
To thine aspiring eye :
4 That prize with peerless glories bright,
Which shall new lustre boast,
When victors' wreaths and monarchs'
Shall blend in common dust, [gems
5 Blest Saviour, introduced by Thee,
Have I my race begun ;
And. crowned with victory, at Thy feet
I'll lay my honors down.
Rev. Philip Doddridge, publ. 175;
4 Sure I must fight if I would reign :
Increase my courage, Lord ;
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Supported by Thy word.
5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war,
Shall conquer, though they die ;
They view the triumph from afar,
And seize it with their eye.
6 When that illustrious day shall rise,
And all Thy armies shine
In robes of victory through the skies,
The glory shall be Thine.

2 With its witching pleasures
Would this vain world charm,
Or its sordid treasures
Spread to work me harm,
Bring to my remembrance
Sad Gethsemane,
Or, in darker semblance,
Cross-crowned Calvary.
3 If with sore affliction
Thou in love chastise,
Pour Thy benediction
On the sacrifice ;
Then, upon Thine altar
Freely offered up,
Though the flesh may falter.
Faith shall drink the cup.
4 When in dust and ashes
To the grave I sink,
While heaven's glory flashes
O'er the shelving brink,
On Thy truth relying
Through that mortal strife,

To eternal life.

1 CHRISTIAN, seek not yet repose,
Cast thy dreams of ease away ;
Thou art in the midst of foes :
Watch and pray.
2 Principalities and powers,
Mustering their unseen array,
Wait for thy unguarded hours :
Watch and pray.
3 Gird thy heavenly armor on.
Wear it ever, night and day ;
Ambushed lies the evil one :
Watch and pray.
3 When at last I near the shore,
And the fearful breakers roar
'Twixt me and the peaceful rest.
Then, while leaning on Thy breast,
May I hear Thee say to me,
" Fear not, I will pilot thee."
Rev. Edward Hopper, 1871
4 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 :

2 If the way be drear,
If the foe be near,
Let not faithless fears o'ertake us ;
Let not faith and hope forsake us,
For, through many a foe,
To our home we go.
3 When we seek relief
From a long-fe!t grief,
When oppressed by new temptations,
Lord, increase and perfect patience ;
Show us that bright shore
Where we weep no more.
4 Jesus, still lead on,
^rill our rest be won :
Heavenly Leader, still direct us,
Still support, console, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our fatherland.

3 Only be still, and wait His leisure
In cheerful hope, with heart content
To take whate'er thy Father's pleasure
And all-deserving love hath sent ;
Nor doubt our inmost wants are known
To Him who chose us for His own.
'Tis easy to our God, we know,
To raise thee up though low thou liest.
To make the rich man poor and low ;
True wonders still by Him are wrought
Who setteth up and brings to naught.
5 Sing, pray, and keep His ways unswerv-
So do thine own part faithfully.
And trust His word, — though unde-
serving,
Thou yet shalt find it true for thee ;
God never yet forsook at need
The soul that trusted Him indeed.

All our weakness Thou dost know ;

Thou didst feel its keenest woe ;
Lone and dreary, faint and weary,
Through the desert Thou didst go.

1 THERE is a safe and secret place.
Beneath the wings Divine,
Reserved for all the heirs of grace ;
O be that refuge mine !
2 The least and feeblest there may bide,
Uninjured and unawed ;
While thousands fall on every side,
He rests secure in God.
3 Spirit of our God, descending,
Fill our hearts with heavenly joy,
Love with every passion blending,
Pleasure that can never cloy ;
Thus provided, pardoned, guided,
Nothing can our peace destroy.
James Edmeston, 1821
3 He feeds in pastures, large and fair,
Of love and truth Divine :
O child of God, O glory's heir,
How rich a lot is thine !
4 A hand almighty to defend,
An ear for every call.
An honored life, a peaceful end,
And heaven to crown it all !

2 We know not what the path may be 4 Or, if some darker lot be good,
As yet by us untrod ; O teach us to endure
But we can trust our all to Thee, The sorrow, pain, or solitude,
Our Father and our God. That make the spirit pure.
3 If called, like Abraham's child, to climb 5 Christ by no flowery pathway came ;
The hill of sacrifice, And we, His followers here,
Some angel may be there in time ; Must do Thy will and praise Thy Name,
Deliverance shall arise : In hope, and love, and fear.
6 And, till in heaven we sinless bow,
And faultless anthems raise,
O Father, Son, and Spirit, now
Accept our feeble praise.

2 Thy love the powers of thought bestowed; 4 In every joy that crowns my days,
To Thee my thoughts would soar : In every pain I bear,
Thy mercy o'er my life has flowed ; My heart shall find delight in praise.
That mercy I adore. Or seek relief in prayer.
3 In each event of life, how clear
Thy ruling hand I see ;
Each blessing to my soul more dear
Because conferred by Thee.
5 When gladness wings my favored hour,
Thy love my thoughts shall fill ;
Resigned, when storms of sorrow lower.
My soul shall meet Thy will.
6 My lifted eye, without a tear,
The lowering storm shall see ;
My steadfast heart shall know no fear ;
That heart will rest on Thee.
Helen M. Williams, 1786

I O GOD of Bethel, by whose hand
Thy people still are fed.
Who through this weary pilgrimage
Hast all our fathers led.
3 Through each perplexing path of life
Our wandering footsteps guide ;
Give us each day our daily bread,
And raiment fit provide.
2 Our vows, our prayers, we now present 4 O spread Thy covering wings around
Before Thy throne of grace ; Till all our wanderings cease,
God of our fathers, be the God And at our Father's loved abode
Of their succeeding race. Our souls arrive in peace.
5 Such blessings from Thy gracious hand
Our humble prayers implore ;
And Thou shalt be our chosen God,
And portion evermore.

2 Though Satan's wrath beset our path, 3 In all the strife of mortal life
And worldly scorn assail us,
While Thou art near we will not fear,
Thy strength shall never fail us :
Thy rod and staff shall keep us safe,
And guide our steps for ever ;
Nor shades of death, nor hell beneath,
Our souls from Thee shall sever.
Our feet shall stand securely;
Temptation's hour shall lose its power,
For Thou shalt guard us surely.
O God, renew, with heavenly dew,
Our body, soul, and spirit.
Until we stand at Thy right hand,
Through Jesus' saving merit.

Whence the heahng stream doth flow ; Bid my anxious fears subside ;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar Death of deaths and hell's Destruction,

Be Thou still my Strength and Shield. I will ever give to Thee.

Shouldst lead me on;
I loved to choose and see my path ; but now
Lead Thou me on.
I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,
Pride ruled my will : remember not past years.
3 So long Thy power hath blest me, sure it still
Will lead me on
O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, till
The night is gone ;
And with the morn those angel faces smile,
Which I have loved long since, and lost awhile.

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.
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.

And I will walk with Him.

Where the dark clouds have been.

The path to life is free ;

And He will walk with me.

2 Let mountains from their seats be hurled 4 There is a stream whose gentle flow
Down to the deep, and buried there, Supplies the city of our God ;
Convulsions shake the solid world, Life, love, and joy, still gliding through,
Our faith shall never yield to fear. And watering our Divine abode.
3 Loud may the troubled ocean roar ; 5 That sacred stream, Thy holy word.
In sacred peace our souls abide. Our grief allays, our fear controls ;
While every nation, every shore. Sweet peace Thy promises afford.
Trembles, and dreads the swelling tide. And give new strength to fainting souls.
6 Zion enjoys her Monarch's love,
Secure against a threatening hour ;
Nor can her firm foundations move.
Built on His truth, and armed with power.

I, I am thy God, and will still give thee aid ;
I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,
Upheld by My righteous, omnipotent hand.
3 " When through the deep waters I call thee to go.
The rivers of woe shall not thee overflow ;
For I will be with thee thy troubles to bless,
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
4 " When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
My grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply ;
The flame shall not hurt thee ; I only design
Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine.
5 " E'en down to old age all My people shall prove
My sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love ;
And when hoary hairs shall their temples adorn,
Like lambs they shall still in My bosom be borne.

2 If life be long, I will be glad 4
That I may long obey ;
If short, yet why should I be sad
To end my toilsome day?
3 Christ leads me through no darker rooms 5
Than He went through before ;
He that unto God's kingdom comes
Must enter by this door.
r
Come, Lord, when grace hath made me
Thy blessed face to see ; [meet
For if Thy work on earth be sweet,
What will Thy glory be !
Then shall I end my sad complaints,
And weary, sinful days.
And join with the triumphant saints
To sing Jehovah's praise.
6 My knowledge of that life is small.
The eye of faith is dim :
But it's enough that Christ knows all,
And I shall be with Him.

2 He gives the conquest to the weak,
Supports the fainting heart ;
And courage in the evil hour
His heavenly aids impart.
3 Mere human power shall fast decay,
And youthful vigor cease ;
But they who wait upon the Lord
In strength shall still increase
4 They with unwearied feet shall tread
The path of life Divine ;
With growing ardor onward move.
With growing brightness shine.
5 On eagles' wings they mount, they soar,
Their wings are faith and love ;
Till, past the cloudy regions here.
They rise to heaven above.

536 (ST. NATHANIEL) CM.
1 GOD moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform ;
He plants His footsteps in the sea.
And rides upon the storm.
2 Deep in unfathomable mines
Of never-failing skill
He treasures up His bright designs.
And works His sovereign will.
3 Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take ;
The clouds ye so much dread
Are big with mercy, and shall break
In blessings on your head.
4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense,
But trust Him for His grace ;
Behind a frowning providence
He hides a smiling face.
5 His purposes will ripen fast,
Unfolding every hour ;
The bud may have a bitter taste,
But sweet will be the flower.
6 Blind unbelief is sure to err,
And scan His work in vain;
God is His own Interpreter,
And He will make it plain.

1 YOUR harps, ye trembling saints,
Down from the willows take ;
Loud to the praise of love Divine
Bid every string awake.
2 Though in a foreign land.
We are not far from home ;
And nearer to our house above
We every moment come.
3 His grace will to the end
Stronger and brighter shine ;
Nor present things, nor things to come,
Shall quench the spark Divine.
5 Leave to His sovereign sway
To choose and to command ;
So shalt thou wondering own. His way
How wise, how strong His hand !
6 Thou seest our weakness, Lord ;
Our hearts are known to Thee :
O lift Thou up the sinking hand,
Confirm the feeble knee.
7 Let us, in life, in death.
Thy steadfast truth declare,
And publish, with our latest breath.
Thy love and guardian care.
Rev. Paul Gerhardt, 1656. Tr. Rev. John Wesley, 1739
4 When we in darkness walk,
Nor feel the heavenly flame.
Then is the time to trust our God,
And rest upon His Name.
5 Soon shall our doubts and fears
Subside at His control ;
His loving-kindness shall break through
The midnight of the soul.
6 Blest is the man, O God.
That stays himself on Thee :
Who wait for Thy salvation, Lord,
Shall Thy salvation see.

2 From the sword at noonday wasting,
From the noisome pestilence,
In the depth of midnight blasting,
God shall be thy sure Defence :
He shall charge His angel legions
Watch and ward o'er thee to keep ;
Though thou walk through hostile regions,
Though in desert wilds thou sleep.
Since, with pure and firm affection
Thou on God hast set thy love,
With the wings of His protection
He will shield thee from above :
Thou shalt call on Him in trouble,
He will hearken. He will save ;
Here for grief reward thee double.
Crown with life beyond the grave.

2 If aught should tempt my soul to stray
From heavenly wisdom's narrow way,
To fly the good I would pursue,
Or do the sin I would not do, —
Still He, who felt temptation's power,
Shall guard me in that dangerous hour,

Deceived by those I prized too well,
He shall His pitying aid bestow,
Who felt on earth severer woe, —
At once betrayed, denied, or fled,

Which covers what was once a friend,
And from his voice, his hand, his smile,
Divides me for a little while, —
Thou, Saviour, mark'st the tears I shed,
For Thou didst weep o'er Lazarus dead.
6 And O, when I have safely past
Through every conflict but the last ;
Still, still unchanging, watch beside
My painful bed, for Thou hast died :
Then point to realms of cloudless day,
And wipe the latest tear away.

Or on the thirsty mountain pant,
To fertile vales and dewy meads
My weary, wandering steps He leads,
Where peaceful rivers, soft and slow,
Amid the verdant landscape flow.
3 Though in the paths of death I tread.

My steadfast heart shall fear no ill.
For Thou, O Lord, art with me still ;
Thy friendly crook shall give me aid,
And guide me through the dreadful shade.

Through devious lonely wilds I stray,

With sudden greens and herbage crowned,

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,
The bruised reed He will not break,
But strengthen and sustain.
I know not what the future hath
Of marvel or surprise,
Assured alone that life and death
His mercy underlies.
6 And so beside the silent sea
I wait the muffled oar :
No harm from Him can come to me
On ocean or on shore.
7 I know not where His islands lift
Their fronded palms in air ;
I only know I cannot drift
Beyond His love and care.
8 And Thou, O Lord, by whom are seen
Thy creatures as they be,
Forgive me if too close I lean
My human heart on Thee.

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.
I could not do without Thee,
0 Jesus, Saviour dear ;
E'en when my eyes are holden,
1 know that Thou art near.
How dreary and how lonely
This changeful life would be,
Without the sweet communion,
The secret rest with Thee !
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.
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."

More truly as I ought.
And nothing place above Thee
In deed, or word, or thought.
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.

2 Blest with this fellowship Divine, 4 What though the world deceitful prove,
Take what Thou wilt, I'll ne'er repine ; And earthly friends and joys remove,
E'en as the branches to the vine, With patient, uncomplaining love
My soul would cling to Thee. Still would I cling to Thee.
3 Far from her home, fatigued, oppressed, 5 Though faith and hope may long be tried,
Here she has found her place of rest, I ask not, need not aught beside ;
An exile still, yet not unblest How safe, how calm, how satisfied,
While she can cling to Thee. The souls that cling to Thee !
6 Blest is my lot, whate'er befall ;
What can disturb me, who appal.
While as my Strength, my Rock, my All,
Saviour, I cling to Thee ?

2 When all created streams are dried,
Thy fulness is the same ;
May I with this be satisfied,
And glory in Thy Name.
3 No good in creatures can be found,
But may be found in Thee ;
I must have all things, and abound,
While God is God to me.
4 O that I had a stronger faith.
To look within the veil !
To credit what my Saviour saith,
Whose word can never fail !
5 He that has made my heaven secure,
Will here all good provide ;
While Christ is rich, can I be poor?
What can I want beside ?
6 O Lord, I cast my care on Thee ;
I triumph and adore :
Henceforth my great concern shall be
To love and please Thee more.
Rev. John Rylaiid, 1777

1 IF Christ is mine, then all is mine.
And more than angels know ;
Both present things and things to come,
And grace and glory too.
2 If He is mine, then, though He frown.
He never will forsake ;
His chastisements all work for good,
And but His love bespeak.
3 If He is mine, I need not fear
The rage of earth and hell ;
He will support my feeble frame,
And all their power repel.
4 If He is mine, let friends forsake,
And earthly comforts flee ;
He, the Dispenser of all good,
Is more than these to me.
5 If He is mine, I'll fearless pass
Tlirough death's tremendous vale ;
He'll be my Comfort and my Stay
When heart and flesh shall fail.
6 Let Jesus tell me He is mine,
I nothing want beside :
My soul shall at the Fountain live
When all the streams are dried.

2 I've found a Friend ; O such a Friend !
He bled, He died to save me ;
And not alone the gift of life,
But His own self He gave me.
Naught that I have mine own I'll call,
I'll hold it for the Giver ;
My heart, my strength, my life, my all,
Are His, and His for ever.
3 I've found a Friend ; O such a Friend !
All power to Him is given,
To guard me on my onward course,
And bring me save to heaven :
Eternal glory gleams afar,
To nerve my faint endeavor :
So now to watch, to work, to war ;
And then to rest for ever.
I've found a Friend ; O such a Friend,
So kind and true and tender !
So wise a Counsellor and Guide,
So mighty a Defender !
From Him who loves me now so well
What power my soul shall sever?
Shall life or death, shall earth or hell ?
No : I am His for ever.

And saved me from my lost estate,
His loving-kindness is so great.

Where earth and hell my way oppose,
He safely leads my soul along,
His loving-kindness is so strong.

Prone from my Jesus to depart ;
And though I oft have Him forgot,
His loving-kindness changes not.

And life and mortal powers shall fail,

Not for the hope of winning heaven.

Into every troubled breast ;
Let us all in Thee inherit,
Let us find the promised rest :
Take away the love of sinning ;

End of faith, as its Beginning,
Set our hearts at liberty.
3 Come, Almighty to deliver,
Let us all Thy life receive ;
Suddenly return, and never,
Never more Thy temples leave.

Serve Thee as Thy hosts above.
Pray, and praise Thee without ceasing,
Glory in Thy perfect love.
4 Finish, then, Thy new creation ;
Pure and spotless let us be :
Let us see Thy great salvation
Perfectly restored in Thee ;
Changed from glory into glory,
Till in heaven we take our place,
Till we cast our crowns before Thee,
Lost in wonder, love, and praise.

2 Which of all our friends, to save us, 4 Could we bear from one another
Could or would have shed their blood? What He daily bears from us?
But our Jesus died to have us
Reconciled in Him to God :
This was boundless love indeed ;
Jesus is a Friend in need.
3 When He lived on earth abased,
" Friend of sinners " was His name ;
Now above all glory raised,
He rejoices in the same ;
Still He calls them brethren, friends,
And to all their wants attends.

Yet this glorious Friend and Brother

Though for good we render ill,

A\'hat a Friend we have above :
But when home our souls are brought,
We will love Thee as we ought.

1 MAJESTIC sweetness sits enthroned
Upon the Saviour's brow ;
His head with radiant glories crowned.
His lips with grace o'erflow.
2 No mortal can with Him compare.
Among the sons of men ;
Fairer is He than all the fair
That fill the heavenly train.
3 He saw me plunged in deep distress.
He flew to my relief;
For me He bore the shameful cross,
And carried all my grief.
4 My soul would leave this heavy clay
At that transporting word ;
Run up with joy the shining way
To embrace my dearest Lord :
5 Fearless of hell and ghastly death,
I'd break through every foe ;
The wings of love and arms of failh
Should bear me conqueror through.
Rev. Isaac Watts, 1707 : verse 2, 1 3, alt.
4 To Him I owe my life and breath,
And all the joys I have ;
He makes me triumph over death,
And saves me from the grave.
5 To heaven, the place of His abode,
He brings my weary feet ;
Shows me the glories of my God,
And makes my joys complete.
6 Since from His bounty I receive
Such proofs of love Divine,
Had I a thousand hearts to give,
Lord, they should all be Thine.

2 O grant that nothing in my soul 4 Still let Thy love point out my way ;
May dwell, but Thy pure love alone ; How wondrous things Thy love hath
O may Thy love possess me whole, wrought !
My joy, my treasure, and my crown : Still lead me, lest I go astray ;
Strange fires far from my soul remove ; Direct my work, inspire my thought ;
My every act, word, thought, be love. And if I fall, soon may I hear
Thy voice, and know that love is near.
3 O love, how cheering is thy ray !
All pain before thy presence flies :
Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away.
Where'er thy healing beams arise.
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Or hear, or feel, or think, but Thee.
5 In suffering, be Thy love my peace ;
In weakness, be Thy love my power ;
And when the storms of life shall cease,
Jesus, in that important hour.
In death, as life, be 'ihou my Guide,
And save me, who for me hast died.

Jesus, Bread and Wine art Thou,
Wine and Bread for ever :
Never canst Thou cease to feed,
Or refresh us never.
Feed we still on Bread Divine,
Drink we still this heavenly Wine.
Jesus, Love and Life art Thou,
Life and Love for ever :
Ne'er to quicken shalt Thou cease,
Or to love us never.
All of life and love we need
Is in Thee, in Thee indeed.

MY spirit on Thy care.
Blest Saviour, I recline ;
Thou wilt not leave me to despair,
For Thou art Love Divine.
2 In Thee I place my trust,
On Thee I calmly rest ;
I know Thee good, I know Thee just.
And count Thy choice the best.
Jesus, Peace and Joy art Thou,
Joy and Peace for ever :
Joy that fades not, changes not,
Peace that leaves us never.
Joy and peace we have in Thee,
Now and through eternity.
Jesus, Song and Strength art Thou,
Strength and Song for ever :
Strength that never can decay.
Song that ceaseth never.
Still to us this strength and song
Through eternal days prolong.

Of having all in Thee.

2 Peace, perfect peace, by thronging duties pressed?
To do the will of Jesus, this is rest.
3 Peace, perfect peace, with sorrows surging round?
On Jesus' bosom naught but calm is found.

In Jesus' keeping we are safe, and they,
5 Peace, perfect peace, our future all unknown?
Jesus we know, and He is on the throne.
6 Peace, perfect peace, death shadowing us and ours?

And Jesus call us to heaven's perfect peace.

2 Blest is that tranquil hour of morn, 4
And blest that solemn hour of eve,
When, on the wings of prayer upborne,
The world I leave.
3 Then is my strength by Thee renewed ; 5
Then are my sins by Thee forgiven ;
Then dost Thou cheer my solitude
With hopes of heaven.
No words can tell what sweet relief
There for my every want I find \
What strength for warfare, balm for grielj
What peace of mind !
Hushed is each doubt, gone every fear ;
My spirit seems in heaven to stay ;
And e'en the penitential tear
Is wiped away.
6 Lord, till I reach yon blissful shore,
No privilege so dear shall be
As thus my inmost soul to pour
In prayer to Thee.

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.
3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech
That infant lips can try ;
Prayer the sublimest strains that reach
The Majesty on high.
t=t^
Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice
Returning from his ways,
While angels in their songs rejoice.
And cry, " Behold, he prays."
Prayer is the Christian's vital breath,
The Christian's native air,
His watchword at the gates of death ;
He enters heaven with prayer.
6 O Thou, by whom we come to God,
The Life, the Truth, the Way,
The path of prayer Thyself hast trod ;
Lord, teach us how to pray.
James Montgomery, 1819

THERE is an eye that never sleeps
Beneath the wing of night ;
There is an ear that never shuts
When sink the beams of light ;
There is an arm that never tires
When human strength gives way ;
There is a love that never fails
When earthly loves decay.
That eye is fixed on seraph throngs ;
That arm upholds the sky ;
That ear is filled with angel songs ;
That love is throned on high.
But there's a power which man can wield
\\'hen mortal aid is vain.
That eye, that arm, that love to reach,
That listening ear to gain.
That power is prayer, which soars on high.
Through Jesus, to the throne.
And moves the hand which moves the world,
To bring salvation down.

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.
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?
There is a spot where spirits blend, 5 There, there on eagle wings we soar.
Where friend holds fellowship with friend. And time and sense seem all no more,
Though sundered far ; by faith they meet And heavencomesdownoursoulstogreet,
Around the common mercy-seat. And glory crowns the mercy-seat.
6 O may my hand forget her skill.
My tongue be silent, cold, and still,
This bounding heart forget to beat.
If I forget the mercy-seat.

2 My soul, ask what thou wilt ;
Thou canst not be too bold ;
Since His own blood for thee He spilt,
What else can He withhold?
3 Thine image. Lord, bestow,
Thy presence and Thy love ;
I ask to serve Thee here below,
And reign with Thee above.
4 Teach me to live by faith ;
Conform my will to Thine ;
Let me victorious be in death.
And then in glory shine.

2 Rivers to the ocean run,
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 dear morn is come,
They'll rise to joyful light.
4 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 only Christ is heard to speak,
Where Jesus reigns alone ;
A humble, lowly, contrite heart,
Ik'lieving, true, and clean,
Which neither life nor death can part
From Him that dwells within ;
A heart in every thought renewed,
xAnd full of love Divine ;
Perfect, and right, and pure, and good,

2 Lead us, O Father, in the paths of truth ;
Unhelped by Thee, in error's maze we grope,
\\'hile passion stains and folly dims our youth,
And age comes on uncheered by faith and hope.
3 Lead us, O Father, in the paths of right ;
Blindly we stumble when we walk alone,
Involved in shadows of a moral night ;
Only with Thee we journey safely on.
4 Lead us, O Father, to Thy heavenly rest,
However rough and steep the path may be ;
Through joy or sorrow, as 'I'hou deemest best.
Until our lives are perfected in Thee.

MY God, permit me not to be
A stranger to myself and Thee ;
Amidst a thousand thoughts I rove,
Forgetful of my highest love.
3 Call me away from flesh and sense :
One sovereign word can draw me thence ;
I would obey the voice Divine,
And all inferior joys resign.
2 Why should my passions mix with earth, 4 Re earth, with all her scenes, withdrawn,
And thus debase my heavenly birth? Let noise and vanity be gone;
Why should I cleave to things below, In secret silence of the mind
And let my God, my Saviour, go? My heaven, and there my God, I find.

5 Or if on joyful wing
Cleaving the sky.
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
Upwards I fly.
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee !

Yet, Lord, we see but darkly :

'TIS by the faith of joys to come
We walk through deserts dark as night :
Till we arrive at heaven, our home,
Faith is our guide, and faith our light.
The want of sight she well supplies ;
She makes the pearly gates appear ;
Far into distant worlds she pries.
And brings eternal glories near.
O Jesus, shine around us
With radiance of Thy grace ;
O Jesus, turn upon us
The brightness of Thy face.
We need no star to guide us,
As on our way we press,
If Thou Thy light vouchsafest,
O Sun of Righteousness.
Bishop William W. How, 1S71
Cheerful we tread the desert through,
While faith inspires a heavenly ray ;
Though lions roar and tempests blow,
And rocks and dangers fill the way.
So Abram, by Divine command.
Left his own house to walk with God ;
His faith beheld the promised land.
And fired his zeal along the road.

2 We ask not, Father, for repose 4 That peace which flows serene and deep,
Which comes from outward rest, A river in the soul,
If we may have through all life's woes Whose banks a living verdure keep.
Thy peace within our breast : God's sunshine o'er the whole.
3 That peace which suffers and is strong. 5 O Father, give our hearts this peace.
Trusts where it cannot see, Whate'er the outward be,
Deems not the trial-way too long, Till all life's discipline shall cease.
But leaves the end with Thee : And we go home to Thee.

1 BEHOLD what wondrous grace
The Father has bestowed
On sinners of a mortal race,
To call tliem sons of God !
2 Nor doth it yet appear
How great we must be made ;
But when we see our Saviour here.
We shall be like our Head.
3 A hope so much Divine
May trials well endure,
May purge our souls from sense and sin,
As Christ the Lord is pure.
4 If in my Father's love
I share a filial part,
Send down Thy Spirit like a dove
To rest upon my heart.
5 We would no longer lie
Like slaves beneath the throne ;
My faith shall " Abba, Father," cry,
And Thou the kindred own.

2 No, no, it is not dying
Heaven's citizen to be ;
A crown immortal wearing,
And rest unbroken sharing,
From care and conflict free.
ill (GREENWOOD) S. M.
1 IT is not death to die,
To leave this weary road,
And midst the brotherhood on high
To be at home with God.
2 It is not death to close
The eye long dimmed by tears.
And wake, in glorious repose
To spend eternal years.
3 It is not death to bear
The wrench that sets us free
3 No, no, it is not dying
To hear this gracious word,
" Receive a Father's blessing,
For evermore possessing
The favor of Thy Lord."
4 No, no, it is not dying
The Shepherd's voice to know :
His sheep He ever leadeth.
His peaceful flock He feedeth,
Where living pastures grow.
5 No, no, it is not dying
To wear a lordly crown ;
Among God's people dwelling.
The glorious triumph swelling
Of Him whose sway we own.
A. CiSsar Malan, iSji. Tr. Rev Robinson P. Dunn, 1S59
From dungeon chain, to breathe the air
Of boundless liberty.
4 It is not death to fling
Aside this sinful dust.
And rise, on strong exulting wing.
To live among the just.

To reign with Thee on high.

2 I would not live alway, thus fettered by sin ;
Temptation without, and corruption within :
E'en the rapture of pardon is mingled with fears,
And the cup of thanksgiving with penitent tears.
3 I would not live alway ; no, welcome the tomb :
Since Jesus hath lain there, I dread not its gloom ;
There sweet be my rest, till He bid me arise
To hail Him in triumph descending the skies.
4 Who, who would live alway, away from his God,
Away from yon heaven, that blissful abode.
Where the rivers of pleasure flow o'er the bright plains,
And the noontide of glory eternally reigns ;
5 Where the saints of all ages in harmony meet.
Their Saviour and brethren, transported, to greet ;
While the anthems of rapture unceasingly roll.
And the smile of the Lord is the feast of the soul?

2 The King there in His beauty
Without a veil is seen ;
It were a well-spent journey,
Though seven deaths lay between :
The Lamb with His fair army
Doth on Mount Zion stand,
And glory, glory dwelleth
In Emmanuel's land.
3 O Christ, He is the Fountain,
The deep sweet Well of love !
The streams on earth I've tasted
More deep I'll drink above :
There to an ocean fulness
His mercy doth expand.
And glory, glory dwelleth
In Emmanuel's land.
With mercy and with judgment
My web of time He wove.
And aye the dews of sorrow
Were lustred by His love :
I'll bless the hand that guided,
I'll bless the heart that planned,
When throned where glory dwelleth
In Emmanuel's land.
The bride eyes not her garment.
But her dear bridegroom's face ;
I will not gaze at glory,
But on my King of grace ;
Not at the crown He gifteth.
But on His pierced hand :
The Lamb is all the glory
Of Emmanuel's land.

2 What though the tempest rage,
Heaven is my home ;
Short is my pilgrimage,
Heaven is my home :
And time's wild wintry blast
Soon shall be overpast ;
I shall reach home at last,
Heaven is my home.
3 There, at my Saviour's side,
Heaven is my home ;
I shall be glorified.
Heaven is my home.
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.

Onward we go, for still we hear them singing,
" Come, weary souls, for Jesus bids you come ; "
And through the dark, its echoes sweetly ringing,
The music of the gospel leads us home.
Angels of Jesus, etc.
Far, far away, like bells at evening pealing.
The voice of Jesus sounds o'er land and sea ;
And laden souls, by thousands meekly stealing.
Kind Shepherd, turn their weary steps to Thee.
Angels of Jesus, etc.
Rest comes at length : though life be long and dreary,
The day must dawn, and darksome night be past ;
Faith's journeys end in welcomes to the weary.
And heaven, the heart's true home, will come at last.
Angels of Jesus, etc.

Sing us sweet fragments of the songs above ;
Till morning's joy shall end the night of weeping,
And life's long shadows break in cloudless love.

And pearly gates behold ? [walls

3 Thy walls are made of precious stones,
Thy bulwarks diamonds square ;
Thy gates are of right orient pearl,
Exceeding rich and rare.
4 Thy turrets and thy pinnacles
With carbuncles do shine ;
Thy very streets are paved with gold,
Surpassing clear and fine.
5 Thy gardens and thy gallant walks
Continually are green,
There grow such sweet and pleasant
flowers
As nowhere else are seen.
6 Quite through the streets, with silver
sountl.
The flood of life doth flow ;
Upon whose banks on every side
The wood of life doth grow.
7 There trees for evermore bear fruit,
And evermore do spring ;
There evermore the angels sit.
And evermore do sing.

Would God I were in thee !
Would God my woes were at an end,

2 What rush of alleluias
Fills all the earth and sky !
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 !
3 O then what raptured greetings
On Canaan's happy shore ;
What knitting severed friendships up.
Where partings are no more !
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle,
That brimmed with tears of late ,
Orphans no longer fatherless,
Nor widows desolate.
Bring near Thy great salvation.
Thou Lamb for sinners slain ;
Fill up the roll of Thine elect,
Then take Thy power, and reign :
Appear. Desire of nations,
Thine exiles long for home ;
Show in the heaven Thy promised sign ;
Thou Prince and Saviour, come.

2 My Father's house on high,
Home of my soul, how near,
At times, to faith's foreseeing eye,
Thy golden gates appear :
Ah ! then my spirit faints
To reach the land I love,
The bright inheritance of saints,
Jerusalem above.
3 I hear at morn and even,
At noon and midnight hour,
The choral harmonies of heaven
Earth's Babel tongues o'erpower
Then, then I feel that He,
Remembered or forgot,
The Lord, is never far from me,
Though I perceive Him not.
4 For ever with the Lord !
Father, if 'tis Thy will,
The promise of that faithful word
E'en here to me fulfil :
Be Thou at my right hand.
Then can I never fail.
Uphold Thou me, and I shall stand ;
Fight, and I must prevail.
5 So when my latest breath
Shall rend the veil in twain.
By death I shall escape from death,
And life eternal gain.
Knowing as I am known,
How shall I love that word.
And oft repeat before the throne,
" For ever with the Lord ! "

2 O happy retribution !
Short toil, eternal rest ;
For mortals and for sinners
A mansion with the blest !
3 And now we fight the battle,
But then shall wear the crown
Of full and everlasting
And passionless renown ;
5 But He, whom now we trust in,
Shall then be seen and known ;
And they that know and see Hun
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.
4 And now we watch and struggle, 7 Yes, God, my King and Portion,
And now we live in hope. In fulness of His grace,
And Zion in her anguish We then shall see for ever,
With Babylon must cope ; 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.
3 Beyond this vale of tears
There is a life above.
Unmeasured by the flight of years,
And all that life is love :
4 There is a death whose pang
Outlasts the fleeting breath ;
O what eternal horrors hang
Around the second death !
5 Lord God of truth and grace.
Teach us that death to shun,
Lest we be banished from Tliy face.
And evermore undone.
6 Here would we end our quest :
Alone are found in Thee
The life of perfect love, the rest
Of immortality.

2 Arise, arise, good Christian,
Let right to wrong succeed ;
Let penitential sorrow
To heavenly gladness lead ;
To the light that hath no evening,
That knows nor moon nor sun,
The light so new and golden,
The light that is but one :
3 The home of fadeless splendor,
Of flowers that fear no thorn,
Where they shall dwell as children
Who here as exiles mourn ;
Midst power that knows no limit.
And wisdom free from bound.
The beatific vision
Shall glad the saints around.
4 O happy, holy portion.
Refection for the blest.
True vision of true beauty.
Sweet cure of all distrest !
Strive, man, to win that glory ;
Toil, man, to gain that light ;
Send hope before to grasp it,
Till hope be lost in sight.
5 O sweet and blessed country.
The home of God's elect !
O sweet and blessed country
That eager hearts expect !
Jesus, in mercy bring us
To that dear land of rest ;
Who art, with God the Father,
And Spirit, ever blest.

All human thought and heart,
And none, O Peace, O Zion,
Can sing thee as thou art.
With jaspers glow thy bulwarks,
Thy streets with emeralds blaze
The sardius and the toi)az
Unite in thee their rays ;
r
Thine ageless walls are bonded
\\ith amethysts uni)riced ;
Thy saints build up its fabric,
And the corner-stone is Christ.
The cross is all thy splendor,
The Crucified thy praise ;
His laud and benediction
Thy ransomed people raise :
Upon the Rock of Ages
They build thy holy tower ;
Thine is the victor's laurel.
And thine the goklen dower.
5 ( ) sweet and blessed country,
The home of Cod's elect !
O sweet and blessed country
That eager hearts expect !
Jesus, in mercy bring us
To that dear land of rest ;
Who art, with God the Father,
And Spirit, ever blest.
Bernard of Cluny, c. 1145. Tr. Rev. John M. Neale, 1S51 : ai

They stand, those halls of Zion,
All jubilant with song,
And bright with many an angel,
And all the martyr throng.
The Prince is ever in them,
The daylight is serene ;
The pastures of the blessed
Are decked in glorious sheen.
There is the throne of David ;
And there, from care released,
The song of them that triumph.
The shout of them that feast ;
Bernard of Cluny, c. 1145.
And they, who with their Leader
Have conquered in the fight.
For ever and for ever
Are clad in robes of white.
4 O mine, my golden Zion !
O lovelier far than gold !
With laurel-girt battalions.
And safe, victorious fold :
O sweet and blessed country,
Shall I ever see thy face ?
O sweet and blessed country,
Shall I ever win thy grace ?
5 Exult, O dust and ashes.
The Lord shall be thy part :
His only and for ever,
Thou shalt be, and thou art.
Exult, O dust and ashes,
The Lord shall be thy part :
His only and for ever.
Thou shalt be, and thou art.

2 The highest hopes we cherish here,
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 :
O by Thy love and anguish. Lord,
O by Thy life laid down,
O that we fall not from Thy grace,
Nor cast away our crown !

There everlasting spring abides,
And never-withering flowers ;
Death, Hke 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.
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.
There unknown are toil and care.
4 O how glorious and resplendent,
Fragile body, shalt thou be,
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.
6 Laud and honor to the Father,
Laud and honor to the Son,
Laud and honor to the Spirit,

Bridal glory round her shed,
Meet for Him whose love espoused her,
To her Lord shall she be led ;
All her streets and all her bulwarks
Of pure gold are fashioned.
3 Bright with pearls her portal glitters,
It is open evermore ;
And by virtue of His merits
Thither faithful souls may soar,
Who, for Christ's dear Name, in this world
Pain and tribulation bore.

Polished well those stones elect,

Far above that arch of gladness,
Far beyond these clouds of sadness,
Are the many mansions fair.
Far from pain and sin and folly.
In that palace of the holy,
I would find my mansion there.
Where the glory brightly dwelleth,
Where the new song sweetly swelleth,
And the discord never comes ;
Where life's stream is ever laving,
And the palm is ever waving,
That must be the home of homes.
Where the Lamb on high is seated,
By ten thousand voices greeted.
Lord of lords, and King of kings.
Son of Man, they crown, they crown Him,
Son of God, they own, they own Him ;
With His Name the palace rings.
Blessing, honor, without measure.
Heavenly riches, earthly treasure.
Lay we at His blessed feet :
Poor the praise that now we render.
Loud shall be our voices yonder,
When before His throne we meet.

(THE LAST SLEEP) 4. 6. 4 6. D.
1 SLEEP thy last sleep,
Free from care and sorrow ;
Rest, where none weep.
Till the eternal morrow;
Though dark waves roll
O'er the silent river,
Thy fainting soul
Jesus can deliver.
2 Life's dream is past,
All its sin, its sadness ;
Brightly at last
Dawns a day of gladness :
Under thy sod,
Earth, receive our treasure.
To rest in God,
Waiting all His pleasure.
3 Though we may mourn
Those in life the dearest.
They shall return,
Christ, when Thou appearest :
Soon shall Thy voice
Comfort those now weeping.
Bidding rejoice
All in Jesus sleeping.

2 When we dimly trace Thy form
In mysterious clouds arrayed,
Be the echo of the storm,
" It is I ; be not afraid."
3 When our brightest hopes depart.
When our fairest visions fade,
Whisper to the fainting heart,
" It is I ; be not afraid."
4 When we weep beside the bier
Where some well-loved form is laid,
O may then the mourner hear,
" It is I ; be not afraid."
5 When with wearing hopeless pain
Sinks the spirit, sore dismayed.
Breathe Thou then the comfort-strain,
" It is I ; be not afraid."
6 When we feel the end is near,
Passing into death's dark shade.
May the voice be strong and clear,
" It is I ; be not afraid."

2 It tells me of a place of rest ;
It tells me where my soul may flee :
O to the weary, faint, oppressed,
How sweet the bidding, " Come to Me.
5 When nature shudders, loath to part
From all I love, enjoy, and see ;
When a faint chill steals o'er my heart,
A sweet voice utters, " Come to Me.
3 When the poor heart with anguish learns 6 " Come, for all else must fail and die ;
That earthly props resigned must be, Earth is no resting-place for thee ;
And from each broken cistern turns. Heavenward direct thy weeping eye,
It hears the accents, " Come to Me." I am thy Portion ; come to Me."
4 When against sin I strive in vain,
And cannot from its yoke get free.
Sinking beneath the heavy chain.
The words arrest me, '' Come to Me.

I GOD of my life, to Thee I call ;
Afflicted, at Thy feet I fall :
When the great water-floods prevail,
Leave not my trembling heart to fail.
70 voice of mercy ! voice of love !
In conflict, grief, and agony,
Support me, cheer me from above.
And gently whisper, " Come to Me."
Charlotte Elliott, 1841
3 Did ever mourner plead with Thee,
And Thou refuse that mourner's plea ?
Does not the word still fixed remain,
That none shall seek Thy face in vain ?
2 Friend of the friendless and the faint, 4 That were a grief I could not bear,
Where should I lodge my deep complaint? Didst Thou not hear and answer prayer ;
Where but with Thee, whose open door But a prayer-hearing, answering Cod
Invites the helpless and the poor? Supports me under every load.
5 Poor though I am, despised, forgot,
Yet God, my God, forgets me not ;
And he is safe, and must succeed.
For whom the Lord vouchsafes to plead.

All thy wants He knows,
Feels the pains that grieve thee,
Sees thy cares and woes :
Raise thine eyes to heaven
When thy spirits quail.
When, by tempests driven.
Heart and courage fail.

When thy gracious Saviour
In the realms above
Crowns thee with His favor.

2 As the winged arrow flies
Speedily the mark to find,
As the lightning from the skies
Darts, and leaves no trace behind, —
Swiftly thus our fleeting days
Bear us down life's rapid stream ;
Upward, Lord, our spirits raise,
All below is but a dream.
3 Thanks for mercies past receive ;
Pardon of our sins renew ;
Teach us henceforth how to live
With eternity in view ;
Bless Thy word to young and old ;
Fill us with a Saviour's love ;
And when life's short tale is told,
May we dwell with Thee above.

The parted year had winged feet ;
The Saviour still doth stay :
The new year comes ; but, Spirit sweet,
Thou goest not away.
Our hearts in tears may oft run o'er ;
But, Lord, Thy smile still beams :
Our sins are swelling evermore.
But pardoning grace still streams.
4 Lord, from this year more service win.
More glory, more delight :
O make its hours less sad with sin,
Its days with Thee more bright.
5 Then we may bless its precious things
If earthly cheer should come.
Or gladsome mount on angel wings
If Thou wouldst take us home.
6 O golden then the hours must be ;
The year must needs be sweet ;
Yes, Lord, with happy melody
Thine opening grace we greet.

Thee, our perfect Sacrifice ;
And, forgetting all the past.
Press towards our glorious prize.
Dark the future ; let Thy light
Guide us, bright and morning Star :
Fierce our foes, and hard the fight ;
Arm us. Saviour, for the war.
In our weakness and distress.
Rock of strength, be Thou our Stay ;

2 Ye angel choirs on high, whose dwelling-place
Shines with the glory of His unveiled face,
Through your immortal life, as love still grows,
Tell of His goodness, which no ending knows.
3 O Earth, enlightened by His rays Divine,
Stored by His hand with corn and oil and wine.
Crowned with His goodness, let thy nations raise
From shore to shore the song of ceaseless praise.
4 O Church, His chosen dwelling and delight.
Graven on His hands, and precious in His sight.
Sing the deep marvels of that boundless grace
Which sheds on thee the brightness of His face.
5 Burst into praise, my soul ; and evermore
Through changing life thy changeless God adore :
He is thy Trust, thy Refuge, and thy Fear;
Strong in His strength, begin the new-born year.

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 ;
Thou who dost give us daily bread,
Give us the Bread eternal.
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,
Stand at the last accepted,
Christ's golden sheaves for evermore
To garners bright elected.
4 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 of all its holy throng
With ours to-day are blending ;
Thrice blessed is that harvest-song
Which never hath an ending.

2 And as, when ebbed the Flood, our sires
Kneeled on the mountain sod.
While o'er the new world's altar fires
Shone out the bow of God ;
And sweetly fell the peaceful spell,
Word that shall aye avail,
•' Summer and winter shall not cease,
Seed-time nor harvest fail," —
3 Thus in their change let frost and heat
And winds and dews be given ;
All fostering power, all influence sweet
Breathe from the bounteous heaven :
Archbishop Edward W. Benson,
Attemper fair with gentle air
The sunshine and the rain.
That kindly earth, with timely birth,
May yield her fruits again ;
That we may feed Thy poor aright,
And, gathering round Thy throne,
Here, in the holy angels' sight,
Repay Thee of Thine own ;
That we may praise Thee all our days,
And with the Father's Name,
And with the Holy Spirit's gifts.
The Saviour's love proclaim.

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 har\-est, 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.
Even so, Lord, quickly come
To Thy final harvest home ;
Gather Thou Thy people in.
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.

2 Flocks that whiten all the plain ;
Yellow sheaves of ripened grain ;
Clouds that drop their fattening dews,
Suns that temperate warmth diifuse ;
3 All that Spring with bounteous hand
Scatters o'er the smiling land ;
All that liberal Autumn pours
From her rich o'erflowing stores; —
4 These to Thee, my God, we owe.
Source whence all our blessings flow ;
And for these my soul shall raise
Grateful vows and solemn praise.
5 Yet, should rising whirlwinds tear
From its stem the ripening ear ;
Should the fig-tree's blasted shoot
Drop her green untimely fruit ;
6 Should the vine put forth no more.
Nor the olive yield her store ;
Though the sickening flocks should fall,
And the herds desert the stall ; —
7 Yet to Thee my soul shall raise
Grateful vows and solemn praise ;
And, when every blessing's flown,
Love Thee for Thyself alone.

O GOD, beneath Thy guiding hand,
Our exiled fathers crossed the sea ;
And when they trod the wintry strand,
With prayer and psalm they worshipped
Thee.
Thou heard'st, well pleased, the song,
the prayer :
Thy blessing came ; and still its power
Shall onward, through all ages, bear
The memory of that holy hour.
Laws, freedom, truth, and faith in God
Came with those exiles o'er the waves ;
And where their pilgrim feet have trod.
The God they trusted guards their
graves.
And here Thy Name, O God of love,
Their children's children shall adore.
Till these eternal hills remove,
And spring adorns the earth no more.

The sins that put to shame :

In rich abundance pour,
That we may magnify
And praise Thee more and more :

With heavenly wisdom bless ;
May they Thy servants be.
And rule in righteousness :

Inflame with love's pure fire ;

And life and truth inspire :

2 The guilt is ours, but grace is Thine,
O turn us not away ;
But hear us from Thy lofty throne,
And help us when we pray.
3 Our fathers' sins were manifold,
And ours no less we own.
Yet wondrously from age to age
Thy goodness hath been shown.
4 When dangers, like a stormy sea.
Beset our country round.
To Thee we looked, to Thee we cried,
And help in Thee was found.
5 With one consent we meekly bow
Beneath Thy chastening hand.
And, pouring forth confession meet.
Mourn with our mourning land.
6 With pitying eye behold our need.
As thus we lift our prayer ;
Correct us with Thy judgments. Lord,
Then let Thy mercy spare.

Watching invisible, judging unheard,
Save us in mercy, O save us from danger ;
Give to us peace in our time, O T.ord.
3 God the All-merciful ! Earth hath forsaken
Thy ways of blessedness, slighted Thy word ;
Bid not Thy wrath in its terrors awaken ;
Give to us peace in our time, O Lord.
4 So shall Thy children, in thankful devotion,
Laud Him who saved them from peril abhorred ;
Singing in chorus, from ocean to ocean.
Peace to the nations, and praise to the Lord.

1 DRE.AD Jehovah, God of nations.
From Thy temple in the skies
Hear Thy people's supplications ;
Now for their deliverance rise.
2 Lo ! with deep contrition turning.
Humbly at Thy feet we bend ;
Hear us, fasting, praying, mourning ;
Hear us, spare us, and defend.
3 Though our sins, our hearts confounding.
Long and loud for vengeance call.
Thou hast mercy more abounding,
Jesus' blood can cleanse them all.
4 Let that love veil our transgression ;
Let that blood our guilt efface ;
Save Thy people from oppression,
Save from spoil Thy holy place.

Circle the shepherd and the sheep,

By holy lives be glorified,
While here Thy peace shall still abide.

With woes that none can number
Despoil the pleasant land ;

Be stronger than the strong.
3 So hast Thou wrought among us
The great tilings that we see !
For things that are we thank Thee,

For bright hope is uplifting

To strive beneath Thy blessing

J How many, at His call,
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.
3 The banners they upbore
Our hands still lift on high ;
The Lord they followed evermore
To us is also nigh.
Arise, arise, and tread
The future without fears ;
He leadeth still, whose hand hath led
Through all the bygone years.
4 When we have reached the home
We seek with weary feet.
Our children's children still shall come
To keep these ranks complete ;
And He, whose host is one
Throughout the countless spheres,
Will guide His marching servants on
Through everlasting years.

Of tender charity and steadfast faith,
Of patient hope, and quiet, brave endurance,
With childlike trust that fears nor pain nor death.

Grant them the peace which calms all earthly strife,
And to life's day the glorious unknown morrow
That dawns upon eternal love and life.

And Thine the hearts that guide ; And, falling, stands again ;
Let wisdom broaden with the day, Confirm the will of eager lives
Let human faith abide. To quit themselves like men :
Who learns of Thee the truth shall find, 5 Thy life the bond of fellowship.
Who follows, wins the goal ; Thy love the law that rules.
With reverence crown the earnest mind. Thy Name, proclaimed by every lip,
And speak within the soul. The Master of our schools.

1 GREAT Giver of all good,
To Thee our thanks we yield
For all the beauties of the wood,
Of hill, and dale, and field.
2 Ten thousand various flowers
To Thee sweet offerings bear,
And joyous birds in woodland bowers
Sing forth Thy tender care.
3 The fields on every side,
The trees on every hill,
The glorious sun, the rolling tide.
Proclaim Thy wonders still.
3 Raise, Lord, to health again those who
have sickened,
Fair be their lives as the roses in
bloom ;
Give of Thy grace to the souls Thou
hast quickened,
Gladness for sorrow, and brightness
for gloom.
4 We, Lord, like flowers, must bloom and
must wither ;
We, like these blossoms, must fade
and must die ;
Gather us, Lord, to Thy bosom for ever,
Grant us a place in Thy house in the
sky.
Rev. A. Gerald W. Blunt, 1879
4 But trees, and fields, and skies
Still praise a God unknown ;
For gratitude and love can rise
From living hearts alone.
5 These living hearts of ours
Thy holy Name would bless ;
The blossoms of the thousand flowers
Would please the Saviour less.
6 While earth itself decays,
Our souls can never die ;
O tune them all to sing Thy praise
In better songs on high.

THINE are all the gifts, O God,
Thine the broken bread ;
Let the naked feet be shod,
And the starving fed.
2 Let Thy children, by Thy grace.
Give as they abound.
Till the poor have breathing-space,
And the lost are found.
3 Wiser than the miser's hoards
Is the giver's choice ;
4 Because the Saviour shed His blood
To wash away their sin ;
Bathed in that pure and precious flood,
Behold them white and clean,
Singing, "Glory be to God on high."
5 On earth they sought the Saviour's grace,
On earth they loved His Name ;
So now they see His blessed face,
And stand before the Lamb,
Singing, "Glory be to God on high."
Anne H. Shepherd, c. 1835 : verse 4, 1. 3, and refrain, ah.
Sweeter than the song of birds
Is the thankful voice ;
Welcome smiles on faces sad
As the flowers of spring :
Let the tender hearts be glad
With the joy they bring.
Happier for their pity's sake
Make their sports and plays.
And from lips of childhood take
Thy perfected praise.

Of Mary, chosen mother mild ; Make Thee a bed, soft, undefiled,
This little Child, of lowly birth, Within my heart, that it may be
Shall be the Joy of all your earth. A quiet chamber kept for Thee.

He came down to earth from heaven 4 For He is our childhood's Pattern,
Who is God and Lord of all,
And His shelter was a stable,
And His cradle was a stall :
With the poor, and mean, and lowly.
Lived on earth our Saviour Holy.
Day by day like us He grew.
He was little, weak and helpless,
Tears and smiles like us He knew
And He feeleth for our sadness.
And He shareth in our gladness.
And,throughallHiswondrouschildhood, 5 And our eyes at last shall see Him,
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 ;
When like stars His children crowned
All in white shall wait around.

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 their Hosannas raise.
But shall we only render
The tribute of our words?
No ; while our hearts are tender.
They too shall be the Lord's.

2 We may not know, we cannot tell,
What pains He had to bear ;
But we believe it was for us
He hung and suffered there.
3 He died that we might be forgiven,
He died to make us good,
That we might go at last to heaven,
Saved by His precious blood.
MEDITATION C. M.
4 There was no other good enough
To pay the price of sin ;
He only could unlock the gate
Of heaven, and let us in.
5 O dearly, dearly has He loved.
And we must love Him too.
And trust in His redeeming blood.
And try His works to do.

4 O give me Samuel's heart,
A lowly heart, that waits
Where in Thy house Thou art,
Or watches at Thy gates ;
By day and night, a heart that still
Moves at the breathing of Thy will,
5 O give me Samuel's mind,
.A sweet unmurmuring faith,
Obedient and resigned
To Thee in life and death,
That I may read with childlike eyes
Truths that are hidden from the wise.
Rev. James D. Hums, 1857
2 The old man, meek and mild,
The priest of Israel, slept ;
His watch the temple-child,
The little Levite, kept ;
And what from Eli's sense was sealed
The Lord to Hannah's son revealed,
3 O give me Samuel's ear.
The open ear, O Lord,
Alive and quick to hear
Each whisper of Thy word,
Like him to answer at Tliy call,
And to obey Thee first of all.

HOW shall the young secure their hearts,
And guard their lives from sin?
Thy word the choicest rules imparts
To keep the conscience clean.
When once it enters to the mind,
It spreads such light abroad.
The meanest souls instruction find,
And raise their thoughts to God.
'Tis like the sun, a heavenly light
That guides us all the day ;
Ke-joice, re-joice
Whilst answering echoes upward float.
Like wreaths of incense cloud.
Yes, on through hfe's long path,
Still chanting as ye go ;
From youth to age, by night and day,
In gladness and in woe.
Still lift your standard high.
Still march in firm array ;
As warriors through the darkness toil
Till dawns the golden day.
At last the march shall end.
The wearied ones shall rest.
The pilgrims find their Father's house,
Jerusalem the blest.
Then on, ye pure in heart,
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing ;
Your glorious banner wave on high,
The cross of Christ your King.
Rev. Edward H. Plumptre, 1865
And, through the dangers of the night,
A lamp to lead our way.
Thy precepts make me truly wise ;
I hate the sinner's road ;
I hate my own vain thoughts that rise.
But love Thy law, my God.
Thy word is everlasting truth ;
How pure is every page !
That holy book shall guide our youth.
And well support our age.

For those who know it best
Seem hungering and thirsting
To hear it, like the rest.
And when, in scenes of glory,
I sing the new, new song,
'Twill be the old, old story
That I have loved so long.

O to learn this lesson well !
Still by constant mercy fed,
Give me, Lord, my daily bread.

Daily strength for daily neetls :
Cast foreboding fears away,
Take the manna of to-day.
Fears to stir a step alone, —
Let me thus with Thee abide,
As my Father, Guard, and Guide.
4 Thus preserved from Satan's wiles,
Safe from dangers, free from fears,
May I live upon Thy smiles
Till the promised hour appears.
When the sons of God shall prove
All their Father's boundless love.

Lord, grant us grace that we,
Before the setting of the sun,
Redeem the time for Thee.
2 Another day of toil !
To Thee we yield our powers ;
Keep Thou our souls from guilty soil
Through all the passing hours.
3 Another day of fear !
For watchful is our foe,
For Thou, who knowest. Lord, how soon
Our weak heart clings,
Hast given us joys tender and true.
Yet all with wings,
So that we see, gleaming on high,
Diviner things.
I thank Thee, Lord, that Thou hast kept
The best in store ;
We have enough, yet not too much
To long for more :
A yearning for a deeper peace
Not known before.
I thank Thee, Lord, that here our souls,
Though amply blest,
Can never find, although they seek,
A perfect rest ;
Nor ever shall, until they lean
On Jesus' breast.
Adelaide A. Procter, 1S5S
And sin is strong, and death is near,
And short our time below.
4 Another day of hope !
For Thou art with us still,
And Thine almighty strength can cope
With all who seek our ill.
5 Another day of grace
To help us on our way !
One step towards the resting-place,
The eternal Sabbath-day.

2 Deeper, deeper grow the shadows,
Paler now the glowing west,
Swift the night of death advances ;
Shall it be the night of rest?
3 Lonely seems the vale of shadow ;
Sinks my heart with troubled fear ;
Give me faith for clearer vision,
Speak Thou, Lord, in words of cheer.
'^-
4 Let me hear Thy voice behind mc,
Calming all these wild alarms ;
Let me, underneath my weakness.
Feel the everlasting arms.
5 Feeble, trembling, fainting, dying,
Lord, I cast myself on Thee;
Tarry with me through the darkness
While I sleep, still watch by me.

2 Thou knowest all the present : each temptation,
Each toilsome duty, each foreboding fear;
All to myself assigned of tribulation,
Or to beloved ones than self more dear;
All pensive memories, as I journey on,
Longings for vanished smiles and voices gone.
3 Thou knowest all the future : gleams of gladness
By stormy clouds too quickly overcast;
Hours of sweet fellowship, and parting sadness,
And the dark river to be crossed at last ;
O what could confidence and hope afford
To tread that path, but this, Thou knowest, Lord !
IJomc and ^pcr^o^al ZX^e
Thou knowest, not alone as God. all knowing ;
As man, our mortal weakness Thou hast proved :
On earth, with purest sympathies o'crflowing,
O Saviour, Thou hast wept, and Thou hast loved ;
And love and sorrow still to Thee may come,
And find a hiding-place, a rest, a home.
Therefore I come, Thy gentle call obeying.
And lay my sins and sorrows at Thy feet ;
On everlasting Strength my weakness staying,
Clothed in Thy robe of righteousness complete :
Then rising and refreshed I leave Thy throne,
And follow on to know as I am known.

Soft resting on Thy breast ;
Soothe me with holy hymn and psalm.
And bid my spirit rest.

Let Thine outstretched wing
Be like the shade of Elim's palm
Beside her desert-spring.

Calm in the closet's solitude,
Calm in the bustling street ;

Calm in the hour of buoyant health,
Calm in my hour of pain ;
Calm in my poverty or wealth,
Calm in my loss or gain ;
Calm in the sufferance of wrong.
Like Him who bore my shame,
Calm 'mid the threatening, taunting
throng
Who hate Thy holy Name ;
Calm as the ray of sun or star
Which storms assail in vain ;
Moving unruffled through earth's war.
The eternal calm to gain.

1 O THOU, from whom all goodness
I lift my heart to Thee ; [flows,
In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes.
Dear Lord, remember me.
2 When groaning on my burdened heart
My sins lie heavily.
My pardon speak, new peace impart ;
In love remember me.
3 Temptations sore obstruct my way,
And ills I cannot flee :
O give me strength. Lord, as my day ;
For good remember me.
4 I love by faith to take a view
Of brighter scenes in heaven ;
The prospect doth my strength renew
While here by tempests driven.
5 Thus, when life's toilsome day is o'er,
May its departing ray
Be calm as this impressive hour,
And lead to endless day.
Phoebe H. Brown, 1818: alt. in Village Hymns, 1824
4 Distressed with pain, disease, and grief.
This feeble body see ;
Grant patience, rest, and kind relief:
Hear and remember me.
5 If on my foce, for Thy dear Name,
Sliame antl reproaches be.
All hail reproach, and welcome shame.
If Thou remember me.
6 Tiie hour is near ; consigned to <leath,
I own the just decree ;
"Saviour," with my last parting breath
I'll cry, " Remember me."

2 I want a sober mind,
A self-renouncing will,
That tramples down and casts behind
The baits of pleasing ill ;
■ A soul inured to pain,
To hardship, grief, and loss ;
Bold to take up, firm to sustain,
The consecrated cross.
3 I want a godly fear,
A quick-discerning eye,
That looks to Thee when sin is near.
And sees the tempter fly ;
A spirit still prepared.
And armed with jealous care ;
For ever standing on its guard,
And watching unto prayer.
4 I rest upon Thy word ;
Thy promise is for me ;
My succor and salvation. Lord,
Shall surely come from Thee :
But let me still abide.
Nor from my Hope remove,
Till Thou my patient spirit guide
Into Thy perfect love.

2 I ask Thee for a thoughtful love,
'I'hrough constant watching wise,
To meet the glad with joyful smiles,
And to wipe the weeping eyes ;
And a heart at leisure from itself
To soothe and sympathize.
3 I would not have the restless will
That hurries to and fro,
Seeking for some great thing to do,
Or secret thing to know ;
I would be treated as a child.
And guided where I go.
4 Wherever in the world I am,
In whatsoe'er estate,
I have a fellowship with hearts
To keep and cultivate ;
And a work of lowly love to ilo
For the Lord on whom I wait.
5 So I ask Thee for the daily strength,
To none that ask denied,
And a mind to blend with outward life,
While keeping at Thy side ;
Content to fill a little space.
If Thou be glorified.
6 In a ser\'ice which Thy will appoints
There are no bonds for me ;
For my inmost heart is taught the truth
That makes Thy children free;
And a life of self-renouncing love
Is a life of liberty.

2 When storms of fierce temptation beat,
And furious foes assail,
My refuge is the mercy-seat,
My hope within the veil.
From strife of tongues and bitter words
My spirit flies to Thee :
Joy to my heart the thought affords,
My Saviour died for me.
3 'Mid trials heavy to be borne,
When mortal strength is vain,
A heart with grief and anguish torn,
A body racked with pain ;
Ah ! what could give the sufferer rest,
Bid every murmur flee.
But this, the witness in my breast
That Jesus died for me?
And when Thine awful voice commands
This body to decay,
And life, in its last lingering sands.
Is ebbing fast away, —
Then, though it be in accents weak.
And faint and tremblingly,
O give me strength in death to speak,
'* My Saviour died for me."

©frcctionjs for Clianting
1 Chants consist of two distinct divisions : one portion is recited, tlie otlier
portion is sung.
2 The words from tlie 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
attended to, as in good reading.
6 As the accent holds the position of the first beat of the first bar, it is
unnecessary to sing it louder than any of the words recited : its position, musically,
will give it quite enough emphasis.
7 F'inal 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.

Selections from
The Psalter
For Use in the Services of the Churches
Arranged by the
Rev. Elijah R. Craven, D.D.. LL. D.
and the
Rev. Louis F. Benson

The Presbyterian Board of Publication and
Sabbath-School Work, Philadelphia, i895

PREFACE
TN obedience to a continuous demand, these Selections from the Psalter
-*- have been prepared for use in the services of the churches.
The text is that of the standard of the American Bible Society, except
that words there printed in italics are here given in the roman type,
and that the verses included in any selection are numbered consecutively,
with a note to show their numbering in the original Psalm. It has seemed
best, on the whole, that these Selections should be arranged for reading
verse by verse, rather than by the structural divisions within the verse. It
is by verses, and not by antiphons, that the Psalms have been learned ;
and the verse-divisions, while originally artificial, no doubt, now mark the
natural and familiar breaks in the rhythm of the Psalm, not only in the
English Bible, but in the memory and the heart. This arrangement has
been decided upon with the further thought, also, that if in the future a
like selection from the Psalter, pointed for chanting, shall be issued by the
Board, this arrangement for reading may correspond with that; for the
proper pointing of the Psalms for chanting requires the verse-divisions.
The Psalms are here given in the order in which they occur in the
Scriptures. But, within the limits imposed by such an arrangement, the
effort has been made to give a certain unity, or at least manifest pro-
gression, of thought to each selection. The Gloria Patri is printed
after the Selections, and is arranged so that it may be cither read or
sung, in such churches as desire to use it at the close of the reading.

SELECTION 1
Psalm i
1 BT,ESSED is the man that walketh
not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor
standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth
in the seat of 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 Yet 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 thee
the heathen for thine inheritance, antl the
uttermost parts of the earth for thy pos-
session.
15 Thou shalt break them with a rod
of iron ; thou shalt dash them in pieces
like a potter's vessel.
16 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings :
be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
1 7 Serve the Lord with fear, and re-
joice with trembling.
18 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and
ye perish from the way, when his wrath is
kindled but a little. Blessed are all they
that put their trust in him.
Psalm 4
19 HEAR me when I call, O God of
my righteousness : thou hast enlarged me
when I was in distress ; have mercy upon
me, and hear my prayer.
20 O ye sons of men, how long will
ye turn my glory into shame ? how long
will ye love vanity, and seek after leas-
ing?
21 But know that the Ix)RD hath set
apart him that is godly for himself: the
Lord will hear when I call unto him.
22 Stand in awe, and sin not : com-
mune with your own heart upon your bed,
and be still.
23 Offer the sacrifices of righteousness,
and put your trust in the Lord.
24 There be many that say. Who
will show us any good ? Lord, lift thou
up the light of thy countenance upon
us.
25 Thou hast put gladness in my heart,
more than in the time that their corn and
their wine increased.
26 I will both lay me down in peace,
and sleep : for thou, Lord, only makest
me dwell in safety.

SELECTION 2
Psalm 5:1-7
1 GIVE ear to my words, O Lord;
consider my meditation.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry,
my King, and my God : for unto thee will
I pray.
3 My voice shalt thou hear in the
morning, O Lord ; in the morning will I
direct my prayer unto thee, and will look
up.
4 For thou art not a God that hath
pleasure in wickedness : neither shall evil
dwell with thee.
5 The foolish shall not stand in thy
sight : thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak
leasing : the Lord will abhor the bloody
and deceitful man.
7 But as for me, I will come into thy
house in the multitude of thy mercy : and
in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy
temple.
Psalm 8
8 O LORD our Lord, how excellent is
thy name in all the earth ! who hast set
thy glory above the heavens.
9 Out of the mouth of babes and suck-
lings hast thou ordained strength because
of thine enemies, that thou mightest still
the enemy and the avenger.
10 When I consider thy heavens, the
work of thy fingers, the moon and the
stars, which thou hast ordained ;
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-
ion over the works of thy hands ; thou
hast put all things under his feet :
14 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the
beasts of the field ;
1 5 The fowl of the air, and the fish of
the sea, and whatsoever passeth through
the paths of the seas.
16 O Lord our Lord, how excellent
is thy name in all the earth !
Psalm 11
1 7 IN the Lord put I my trust : how
say ye to my soul. Flee as a bird to your
mountain ?
18 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow,
they make ready their arrow upon the
string, that they may privily shoot at the
upright in heart.
19 If the foundations be destroyed,
what can the righteous do?
20 The Lord is in his holy temple,
the Lord's throne is in heaven : his eyes
behold, his eyelids try, the children of
men.
2 1 The Lord trieth the righteous : but
the wicked and him that loveth violence
his soul hateth.
22 Upon the wicked he shall rain
snares, fire and brimstone, and a horrible
tempest : this shall be the portion of their
cup.
23 For the righteous Lord loveth right-
eousness ; his countenance doth behold
the upright.
SELECTION 3
Psalm 13
1 HOW long wilt thou forget me, O
Lord? for ever? how long wilt thou hide
thy face from me ?
2 How long shall I take counsel in my
soul, having sorrow in my heart daily?
how long shall mine enemy be exalted
over me?
3 Consider and hear me, O Lord my
God : lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the
sleep of death ;
4 Lest mine enemy say, I have pre-
vailed against him ; and those that trouble
me rejoice when I am moved.
C()c psalter
5 But I have trusted in thy mercy ; my
heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
6 I will sing unto the Umv, because
he hath dealt bountifully with me.
Psalm 15
7 LORD, who shall abide in thy
tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy
hill?
8 He that walkcth uprightly, and work-
eth righteousness, and speaketh the truth
in his heart.
9 He that backbiteth not with his
tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbor,
nor taketh up a reproach against his
neighbor.
10 In whose eyes a vile person is
contemned ; but he honoreth them that
fear the Lord. He that sweareth to his
own hurt, and changeth not.
1 1 He that putteth not out his money
to usury, nor taketh reward against the
innocent. He that doeth these things
shall never be moved.
Psalm 16
12 PRESERVE me, O God: for in
thee do I put my trust.
13 O my soul, thou hast said unto the
Lord, Thou art my Lord : my goodness
extendeth not to thee ;
14 But to the saints that are in the
earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all
my delight.
15 Their sorrows shall be multiplied
that hasten after another god : their drink
offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take
up their names into my lips.
16 The Lord is the portion of mine
inheritance and of my cup : thou main-
tainest my lot.
17 The lines are fallen unto me in
pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly
heritage.
18 I will bless the Lord, who hath
given me counsel : my reins also instruct
me in the night seasons.
19 I have set the Lord always before
me : because he is at my right hantl, I
shall not be moved.
20 Therefore my heart is glad, and
my glory rejoiceth : my flesh also shall
rest in hope.
2 1 For thou wilt not leave my soul in
hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy
One to see corruption.
22 Thou wilt show me the path of
life : in thy presence is fulness of joy ; at
thy right hand there are pleasures for
evermore.
SELECTION 4
Psalm 17 : 1-9, 15
1 HEAR the right, O Lord, attend
unto my cry ; give ear unto my prayer,
that goeth not out of feigned lips.
2 Let my sentence come forth from
thy presence ; let thine eyes behold the
things that are equal.
3 Thou hast proved mine heart ; thou
hast visited me in the night ; thou hast
tried me, and shalt find nothing : I am pur-
posed that my mouth shall not transgress.
4 Concerning the works of men, by
the word of thy lips I have kept me from
the paths of the destroyer.
5 Hold up my goings in thy paths,
that my footsteps slip not.
6 I have called upon thee, for thou
wilt hear me, O God : incline thine ear
unto me, and hear my speech.
7 Show thy marvellous loving-kindness,
O thou that savest by thy right hand them
which put their trust in thee from those
that rise up against them.
8 Keep me as the apple of the eye ;
hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
9 From the wicked that oppress me,
from my deadly enemies, who compass
me about.
10 As for me, I will behold thy face
ill righteousness : I shall be satisfied,
when I awake, with thy likeness.
€f)e ^^alttt
Psalm i8 : 1-19
11 I WILL love thee, O Lord, my
strength.
12 The Lord is my rock, and my
fortress, and my deliverer ; my God,
my strength, in whom I will trust ; my
buckler, and the horn of my salvation,
and my high tower.
13 I will call upon the Lord, who is
worthy to be praised : so shall I be saved
from mine enemies.
14 The sorrows of death compassed
me, and the floods of ungodly men made
me afraid.
15 The sorrows of hell compassed me
about : the snares of death prevented
me.
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.
1 7 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.
29 He brought me forth also into a
large place ; he delivered me, because he
delighted in me.
SELECTION 5
Psalm 18 : 25-35
1 WITH the merciful thou wilt show
thyself merciful ; with an upright man
thou wilt show thyself upright ;
2 With the pure thou wilt show thyself
pure ; and with the fro ward tliou wilt
show thyself froward.
3 For thou wilt save the afilicted
people ; but wilt bring down high looks.
4 For thou wilt light ray candle : the
Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.
5 For by thee I have run through a
troop; and by my God have I leaped
over a wall.
6 As for God, his way is perfect : the
word of the Lord is tried : he is a buckler
to all those that trust in him.
7 For who is God save the Lord ? or
who is a rock save our God ?
8 It is God that girdeth me with
strength, and maketh my way perfect.
9 He maketh my feet like hinds' feet,
and setteth me upon my high places.
10 He teacheth my hands to war, so
that a bow of steel is broken by mine
arms.
1 1 Thou hast also given me the shield
of thy salvation : and thy right hand hath
holden me up, and thy gentleness hath
made me great.

Psalm 19
12 THE heavens declare the glory of
God ; and the firmament showeth his
handywork.
13 Day unto day uttereth speech, and
night unto night showeth knowledge.
14 riiere is no speech nor language,
where their voice is not heard.
15 Their line is gone out through ali
the earth, and their words to the end of
the world. In them hath he set a taber-
nacle for the sun,
16 Which is as a bridegroom coming
out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a
strong man to run a race.
1 7 His going forth is from the end of
the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends
of it : and there is nothing hid from the
heat thereof.
18 The law of the Lord is perfect,
converting the soul: the testimony of
the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
19 The statutes of the Lord are right,
rejoicing the heart: the commandment
of the Lord is pure, enlightening the
eyes.
20 The fear of the Lord is clean, en-
during for ever: the judgments of the
Lord are true and righteous altogether.
21 More to be desired are they than
gold, yea, than much fine gold : sweeter
also than honey and the honeycomb.
22 Moreover by them is thy servant
warned : and in keeping of them there is
great reward.
23 Who can understand his errors?
cleanse thou me from secret faults.
24 Keep back thy ser\-ant also from
presumptuous sins; let them not have
dominion over me : then shall I be up-
right, and I shall be innocent from the
great transgression.

Psalm 20
1 THE Lord hear thee in the day of
trouble ; the name of the God of Jacob
defend thee ;
2 Send thee help from the sanctuary,
and strengthen thee out of Zion ;
3 Remember all thy offerings, and
accept thy burnt sacrifice ;
4 Grant thee according to thine own
heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
5 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and
in the name of our God we will set up our
banners : the Lord fulfil all thy petitions.
6 Now know I that the Lord saveth
his anointed ; he will hear him from his
holy heaven with the saving strength of

13 Yea, though I walk through the
valley of the shadow of death, I will fear
no evil : for thou art with me ; thy rod
and thy staff they comfort me.
14 Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies : thou
anointest my head with oil ; my cup

Psalm 45
1 MY heart is inditing a good matter :
I speak of the things which I have made
touching the King : my tongue is the pen
of a ready writer.
2 Thou art fairer than the children of
men : grace is poured into thy lips :
therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O
most Mighty, with thy glory and thy
majesty.
4 And in thy majesty ride properously,
because of truth and meekness and right-
eousness ; and thy right hand shall teach
thee terrible things.
5 Thine arrows are sharp in the heart
of the King's enemies ; whereby the peo-
ple fall under thee.
6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and
ever : the sceptre of thy kingdom is a
right sceptre.
7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest
wickedness : therefore God, thy God, hath
anointed thee with the oil of gladness
above thy fellows.
8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and
aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces,
whereby they have made thee glad.
9 Kings' daughters were among thy
honorable women : upon thy right hand
did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider,
and incline thine ear ; forget also thine
own people, and thy father's house ;
11 So shall the King greatly desire thy
beauty : for he is thy Lord ; and worship
thou him.
12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be
there with a gift ; even the rich among
the people shall entreat thy favor.
13 The King's daughter is all glorious
within : her clothing is of wrought gold.
14 She shall be brought unto the King
in raiment of needlework : the virgins
her companions that follow her shall be
brought unto thee.
15 With gladness and rejoicing shall
they be brought : they shall enter into
the King's palace.
16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy
children, whom thou mayest make princes
in all the earth.
17 I will make thy name to be remem-
bered in all generations : therefore shall
the people praise thee for ever and ever.
Psalm 46
18 GOD is our refuge and strength, a
very present help in trouble.
19 Therefore will not we fear, though
the earth be removed, and though the
mountains be carried into the midst of
the sea ;
20 Though the waters thereof roar and
be troubled, though the mountains shake
with the swelling thereof.
2 1 There is a river, the streams whereof
shall make glad the city of God, the holy
place of the tabernacles of the Most High.
22 God is in the midst of her; she
shall not be moved : God shall help her,
and that right early.

were moved : he uttered his voice, the
earth melted.

they passed by together.
14 They saw it, and so they marvelled ;
they were troubled, and hasted away.

16 Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish
with an cast wind.
17 As we have heard, so have we seen

temple.
19 According to thy name, O God,
so is thy praise unto the ends of the
earth : thy right hand is full of righteous-

daughters of Judah be glad, because of
thy judgments.

about her : tell the towers thereof,

There is no God. Corrupt are they,
and have done abominable iniquity :
there is none that doeth good.
2 God looked down from heaven upon
the children of men, to see if there were
any that did understand, that' did seek
God.
3 Every one of them is gone back :
they are altogether become filthy ; there
is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Have the workers of iniquity no
knowledge? who eat up my people as
they eat bread : they have not called
upon God.
5 There were they in great fear, where
no fear was : for God hath scattered the
bones of him that encampeth against
thee : thou hast put them to shame, be-
cause God hath despised them.

come out of Zion ! When God bringeth
back the captivity of his people, Jacob

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 ;
17 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.

God is the strength of my heart, and my
portion for ever.

1 I CRIED unto God with my voice,
even unto (Jod with my voice; and he
gave ear unto me.
2 In the day of my trouble I sought
the Lord : my sore ran in the night,
and ceased not : my soul refused to be
comforted.
3 I remembered God, and was troub-

overwhelmed.

am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5 I have considered the days of old,

Psalm 104
I BLESS the Lord, O my soul. O
Lord my God, thou art very great ; thou
art clothed with honor and majesty :
2 Who coverest thyself with light as
with a garment : who strelchest out the
heavens like a curtain :
3 Who layeth the beams of his cham-
bers in the waters : who maketh the
clouds his chariot : who walketh upon
the wings of the wind :
4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his
ministers a flaming fire :
5 Who laid the foundations of the
earth, that it should not be removed for
ever.
6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as
with a garment : the waters stood above
the mountains.
7 At thy rebuke they fled ; at the voice
of thy thunder they hasted away.
8 They go up by the mountains ; they
go down by the valleys unto the place
which thou hast founded for tliem.
9 Thou has set a bound that they may
not pass over ; that they turn not again
to cover the earth.
10 He sendeth the springs into the
valleys, which run among the hills.
1 1 They give drink to every beast of
the field : the wild asses quench their
thirst.
12 By them shall the fowls of the
heaven have their habitation, which sing
among the branches.
13 He watereth the hills from his
chambers : the earth is satisfied with the
fruit of thy works.
14 He causeth the grass to grow for
the cattle, and herb for the service of
man : that he may bring forth food out
of the earth ;
15 And wine that maketh glad the
heart of man, and oil to make his face to
shine, and bread which strenglheneth
man's heart.
16 The trees of the Lord are full of
sap ; the cedars of Lebanon, which he
hath planted ;
1 7 Where the birds make their nests :
31

as for the stork, the fir trees are her
house.
18 The high hills are a refuge for the
wild goats ; and the rocks for the conies.
19 He appointed the moon for seasons :
the sun knovveth his going down.
20 Thou makest darkness, and it is
night : wherein all the beasts of the
' forest do creep forth.
21 The young lions roar after their
prey, and seek their meat from God.
22 The sun ariseth, they gather them-
selves together, and lay them down in
their dens.
23 Man goeth forth unto his work and
to his labor until the evening.
24 O Lord, how manifold are thy
works ! in wisdom hast thou made them
all : the earth is full of thy riches.
25 So is this great and wide sea, where-
in are things creeping innumerable, both
small and great beasts.
26 There go the ships : there is that
leviathan, whom thou hast made to play
therein.
27 These wait all upon thee; that
thou mayst give them their meat in due
season.
28 That thou givest them they gather :
thou openest thine hand, they are filled
with good.
29 Thou hidest thy face, they are
troubled : thou takest away their breath,
they die, and return to their dust.
30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they
are created : and thou renewest the face
of the earth.
31 The glory of the Lord shall endure
for ever : the Lord shall rejoice in his
works.
32 He looketh on the earth, and it
trembleth : he toucheth the hills, and
they smoke.
33 I will sing unto the Lord as long
as I live : I will sing praise to my God
while I have my being.
34 My meditation of him shall be
sweet : I will be glad in the Lord.

4 They wandered in the wilderness in
a solitary way ; they found no city to
dwell in.
5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted
in them.
6 Then they cried unto the Lord in
their trouble, and he delivered them out
of their distresses.

brought low through oppression, afflic-

1 1 For the rod of the wicked shall not
rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest
the righteous put forth their hands unto
iniquity.
12 Do good, O Lord, unto those that
be good, and to them that are upright in
their hearts.
13 As for such as turn aside unto their
crooked ways, the Lord shall lead them
forth with the workers of iniquity : but
peace shall be upon Israel.
Psalm 126
14 WHEN the Lord turned again the
captivity of Zion, we were like them that
dream.
15 Then was our mouth filled with
laughter, and our tongue with singing :
then said they among the heathen. The
Lord hath done great things for them.
16 The Lord hath done great thmgs
for us ; whereof we are glad.
17 Turn again our captivity, O Lord,
as the streams in the south.
18 They that sow in tears shall reap in
joy.
19 He that goeth forth and weepeth,
bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come
again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves
with him.
Psalm 127
20 EXCEPT the Lord build the house,
they labor in vain that build it : except
the Lord keep the city, the watchman
waketh but in vain.
21 It is vain for you to rise up early,
to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows :
for so he giveth his beloved sleep.
22 Lo, children are a heritage of the
Lord : and the fruit of the womb is his
reward.
23 As arrows are in the hand of a
mighty man; so are children of the
youth.
24 Happy is the man that hath his
quiver full of them : they shall not be
ashamed, but they shall speak with the
enemies in the gate.

Psalm 130
1 OUT of the depths have I cried
unto thee, O Lord.
2 Lord, hear my voice : let thine ears
be attentive to the voice of my supplica-
tions.
3 If thou. Lord, shouldest mark ini-
quities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee,
that thou mayest be feared.
5 I wait for the Lord, my soul doth
wait, and in his word do I hope.
6 My soul waiteth for the Lord more
than they that watch for the morning : I
say, more than they that watch for the
morning.
7 Let Israel hope in the Lord : for
with the Lord there is mercy, and with
him is plenteous redemption.
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all
his iniquities.
Psalm 131
9 LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor
mine eyes lofty : neither do I exercise
myself in great matters, or in things too
high for me.
10 Surely I have behaved and quieted
myself, as a child that is weaned of his
mother : my soul is even as a weaned
child.
1 1 Let Israel hope in the Lord from
henceforth and for ever.
Psalm 132
12 LORD, remember David, and all

Jacob.
17 Lo, we heard of it at Ephratah : we
found it in the fields of the wood.
18 We will go into his tabernacles : we
will worship at his footstool.
19 Arise, O Lord, into thy rest ; thou,
and the ark of thy strength.
20 Let thy priests be clothed with
righteousness ; and let thy saints shout for
joy.
2 1 For thy servant David's sake turn
not away the face of thine anointed.
22 The Lord hath sworn in truth unto
David ; he will not turn from it ; Of the
fruit of thy body will I set upon thy
throne.
23 If thy children will keep my cove-
nant and my testimony that I shall teach
them, their children shall also sit upon thy
throne for evermore.
24 For the Lord hath chosen Zion ; he
hath desired it for his habitation,
25 This is my rest for ever : here will

26 I will abundantly bless her provi-

27 I will also clothe her priests with
salvation : and her saints shall shout aloud

willows in the midst thereof.
16 For there they that carried us away
captive required of us a song; and they
that wasted us required of us mirth, say-

1 7 How shall we sing the Lord's song
in a strange land?
18 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let
my right hand forget her cunning.

Psalm 138
20 I WILL praise thee with my whole

Psalm 139: 1-12, 14-24

and known me.
2 Thou knowest my downsitting and
mine uprising ; thou understandest my
thought afar off.
3 Thou compassest my path and my
lying down, and art acquainted with all
my ways.
4 For there is not a word in my tongue,
but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it alto-
gether.
5 Thou hast beset me behind and
before, and laid thine hand upon me,
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for
me ; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.
7 Whither shall I go from thy Spirit?
or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art
there : if I make my bed in hell, behold,
thou art there.
9 If I take the wings of the morning,
and dwell in the uttermost parts of the
sea ;
10 Even there shall thy hand lead me,
and thy right hand shall hold me.
11 If I say. Surely the darkness shall
cover me ; even the night shall be light
about me.
12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from
thee ; but the night shineth as the day :
the darkness and the light are both alike
to thee.
1 3 I will praise thee ; for I am fear-
fully and wonderfully made : marvellous
are thy works ; and that my soul knoweth
right well.
14 My substance was not hid from
thee, when I was made in secret, and
curiously wrought in the lowest parts of
the earth.
15 Thine eyes did see my substance,
yet being unperfect ; and in thy book all
my members were written, which in con-
tinuance were fashioned, when as yet
there was none of them.
16 How precious also are thy thoughts
unto me, O God ! how great is the sum
of them !
17 If I should count them, they are
more in number than the sand : when I
awake, I am still with thee.
18 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked,
O Ciod : depart from me therefore, ye
bloody men.
19 For they speak against thee wick-

vain.
20 Do not I hate them, O Lord, that
hate thee? and am not I grieved with
those that rise up against thee?
2 1 I hate them with perfect hatred : I
count them mine enemies.

In the way wherein I walked have they
privily laid a snare for me.
7 I looked on my right hand, and
beheld, but there was no man that would
know me : refuge failed me ; no man
cared for my soul.

Thou art my refuge and my portion in the
land of the living.
9 Attend unto my cry ; for I am brought
very low : deliver me from my persecutors ;

trust : cause me to know the way wherein
I should walk ; for I lift up my soul unto
