PREFACE
THE conviction that only the noblest and best in music is worthy of a
place in divine worship has guided the editor of Hymns and Songs for
THE Sunday School in the selection of his material. There is a clear distinc-
tion between music suitable for the world and music suitable for the church.
This distinction should be observed in the Sunday school, which has no exist-
ence apart from the church. Here the child first learns to take part in public
worship ; here he should use only such music as has been conceived in the spirit
of religion and has been cast into forms consistent with that spirit. By furnish-
ing such music the Sunday school establishes for the child correct taste in
religious music. Failing to set before him such examples, the Sunday school
loses a great opportunity.
Hymns and Songs for the Sunday School is not a classical edition; it is
a practical edition, edited for the voice of medium range which predominates
in the Sunday school. It is a musical text-book for the church school ; it con-
tains the hymns which the child should study, sing and love. Those marked
with an asterisk should be committed to memory. Most of the hymns in the
collection are hymns of prayer and praise. A few subjective hymns have
been included ; these, though their theme is outside of the religious experience of
the child, should still have a place in his religious training. Evening hymns
have been included because no representative collection is complete without
them. The German choral melodies have been arranged for the most part for
unison singing. This is not only effective, but also practical, since the alto
and tenor parts are often poorly represented in Sunday schools, and are some-
times entirely lacking.
Upon the Sunday school superintendent depends in large measure the useful-
ness of the book. He should not limit himself to certain tunes or to certain
familiar sections. Each hymn has been inserted for a special purpose, and
every hymn is meant to be sung. In the Advent season the children should be
taught the Advent hymns, and so on through the Church Year. In many
cases it will be possible for the superintendent to impart interesting information
about the history of a hymn. Schools should be assembled occasionally for
practice. A musical drill, following the Sunday school lesson, is not contrary
to the spirit of the Sunday school.
The leader or accompanist will find the use of a metronome helpful in es-
3
Preface
tablishing a correct tempo. The indicated marks do not apply strictly, except
in the case of rapid tempo. In no case should the hymn be sung faster
than the given tempo. A Sunday school need enter no further into the niceties
of expression than to cultivate a good fortissimo, a good pianissimo, a good
crescendo and a good diminuendo. Variety of effect may be secured by having
one stanza sung in harmony, the next in unison ; by having boys and girls sing
alternate stanzas ; or by having the stanza sung by a solo voice or by the choir
and the refrain by the school.
The Appendix contains various selections which may be sung either by the
school as a whole, or by the choir. A well drilled choir is of great advantage
to a Sunday school.

Collect.
{All uniting.) Almighty Father, who
hast promised that they who seek early Thy
heavenly wisdom shall early find it more
precious than all the treasures of this world,
send down on us the grace and blessing of
Thy Holy Spirit; that we, being trained up
in the nurture and admonition of the Lord,
may choose and love Thy way, and depart
from it no more forever; and that when
Thou makest up Thy jewels in Thy glori-
ous kingdom, we may be there and may be
Thine; all which we ask for the sake of
Jesus, our only Saviour and Redeemer.
Amen.

Collect.
(All uniting.) Grant, we beseech Thee,
Almighty God, that the words which we
have heard this day may, through Thy
grace, so abide in our hearts that they
may bring forth in us the fruit of godly
living, to the honor and praise of Thy name,
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Lord's Prayer (said or sung).
Benediction.
(Where schools hold session before
church, the benediction should be omitted,
that the scholars may know that their wor-
ship is not completed, but is to be continued
in the church service. Every effort should
be made to secure church attendance on the
part of teachers and scholars.)
The Ten Commandments *
I. I am the Lord thy God. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any hkeness 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.
n. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not
!io;d him guiltless that taketh His name in vain.
TIL Remember the Sal^bath 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 daugh-
ter, 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.
IV. Honor thy father and thy mother, that it may be well with thee, and thou mayest
live long on the earth.
V. Thou shalt not kill.
VL Thou shalt not commit adultery.
VIL Thou shalt not steal.
Vin. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
IX. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house.
X. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant,
nor his cattle, nor anything that is his.

The Apostles* Creed
I believe in God the Father Ahnighty, 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 Christian Church; the Communion of Saints;
the Forgiveness of sins; the Resurrection of the body; and the Life everlasting. Amen.

The colon marks the divisions of the psalm verse. The Superintendent reads to this point; and the
school continues the reading from the colon to the end of the verse. In all other selections of Scripture
the verses are read alternately by the Superintendent and the school.
SELECTION I
Advent
Isaiah 40 : i-ii
/'^OMFORT ye, comfort ye my people,
^^ saith your God.
Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and
cry unto her, that her warfare is accom-
plished, that her iniquity is pardoned : for
she hath received of the Lord's hand double
for all her sins.
The voice of him that crieth in the wil-
derness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord,
make straight in the desert a highway for
our God.
Every valley shall be exalted, and every
mountain and hill shall be made low : and
the crooked shall be made .straight, and the
rough places plain :
And the glory of the Lord shall be re-
vealed, and all flesh shall see it together :
for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
The voice said. Cry. And he said,
What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and
all the goodhness thereof is as the flower
of the field :
The grass withereth, the flower f adeth ;
because the spirit of the Lord bloweth upon
it: surely the people is grass.
The grass withereth, the flower fadeth :
but the word of our Lord shal stand for ever.
O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get
thee up into the high mountain ; O Jeru-
salem, that bringest good tidings, lift up
thy voice with strength ; lift it up, be not
afraid ; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold
your God !
Behold, the Lord God will come with
strong hand, and his arm shall rule for
him: behold, his reward is with him, and
his work before hira.
He shall feed his flock like a shepherd :
he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and
carry them in his bosom, and shall gently
lead those that are with young.

Psalm iio
Dixit Dominus
TTHE Lord said unto my Lord: Sit thou

enemies thy footstool.
The Lord shall send the rod of thy
strength out of Zion : rule thou in the midst
of thine enemies.
Thy people shall be willing in the day
of thy power, in the beauties of holiness
from the womb of the morning: thou hast
the dew of thy youth.
The Lord hath sworn, and will not re-
pent: Thou art a priest for ever after the
order of Melchizedek.
The Lord at thy right hand : shall strike
through kings in the day of his wrath.
He shall judge among the heathen, he
shall fill the places with the dead bodies :
he shall wound the heads over many coun-
tries.
He shall drink of the brook in the way :
therefore shall he lift up the head.
Luke 2 : 8-11, 13, 14
And there were in the same country
shepherds abiding in the field, keeping
watch over their flocks by night.
And, lo, the angel of the Lord came
upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone
round about them : and they were sore
afraid.
And the angel said unto them. Fear

of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the

New Year
Psalm 90
Domine, refugium
f ORD, thou hast been our dwelling-
'— ' place : in all generations.
Before the mountains were brought forth,
or ever thou hadst formed the earth and
the world : even from everlasting to ever-
lasting, thou art God.
Thou turnest man to destruction : and
sayest. Return, ye children of men.
For a thousand years in thy sight are but
as yesterday when it is past : and as a
watch in the night.
Thou carriest them away as with a flood ;
they are as a sleep : in the morning they
are like grass which groweth up.
In the morning it flourisheth, and grow-
eth up : in the evening it is cut down, and
withereth.
For we are consumed by thine anger :
and by thy wrath are we troubled.
Thou hast set our iniquities before thee :
our secret sins in the light of thy counte-
nance.
For all our days are passed away in thy
wrath : we spend our years as a tale that
is told.
The days of our years are threescore
years and ten: and if by reason of strength
they be fourscore years, yet is their strength
labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off,
and we fly away.
Who knoweth the power of thine anger :
even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.
So teach us to number our days : that we
may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
2 17
Return, O Lord, how long: and let it
repent thee concerning thy servants.
O satisfy us early with thy mercy: that
we may rejoice and be glad in our days.
Make us glad according to the days
wherein thou hast afflicted us: and the
years wherein we have seen evil.
Let thy work appear unto thy servants :
and thy glory unto their children.

The mountains shall bring peace to the
people : and the little hills, by righteous-

shall save the children of the needy : and
shall break in pieces the oppressor.
They shall fear thee as long as the sun
and moon endure : throughout all genera-

earth.
In his days shall the righteous flourish :
and abundance of peace so long as the

bow before him: and his enemies shall lick

and Seba shall offer gifts.
Yea, all kings shall fall down before

two disciples,
Saying unto them, Go into the village
over against you, and straightway ye shall
find an ass tied, and a colt with her : loose
them, and bring them unto me.
And if any man say aught unto you, ye
shall say, The Lord hath need of them;
and straightway he will send them.
All this was done, that it might be ful-
filled which was spoken by the prophet,
saying.
Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold,
thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sit-
ting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an
ass.
And the disciples went, and did as Jesus
commanded them.
And brought the ass, and the colt, and
put on them their clothes, and they set him
thereon.
And a very great multitude spread their
garments in the way ; others cut down
branches from the trees, and strewed them
in the way.

and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna

BUT now is Christ risen from the dead,
and become the firstfruits of them
that slept.
For since by man came death, by man
came also the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ
shall all be made alive.
But every man in his own order: Christ
the firstfruits ; afterward they that are
Christ's at his coming.
Then cometh the end, when he shall
have delivered up the kingdom to God,
even the Father; when he shall have put
down all rule, and all authority and power.
For he must reign, till he hath put all
enemies under his feet.
19
Selections of Scripture for
The last enemy that shall be destroyed
is death.
For he hath put all things under his
feet. But when he saith, All things are put
under him, it is manifest that he is ex-
cepted, which did put all things under
him.
And when all things shall be subdued
unto him, then shall the Son also himself
be subjected unto him that put all things
under him, that God may be all in all.
But some man will say. How are the
dead raised up? and with what body do
they come?
Thou fool, that which thou sowest is
not quickened, except it die :
And that which thou sowest, thou
sowest not that body that shall be, but bare
grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some
other grain ;
But God giveth it a body as it hath
pleased him, and to every seed his own
body.
All flesh is not the same flesh: but there
is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh
of beasts, another of fishes, and another of
birds.
There are also celestial bodies, and bodies
terrestrial : but the glory of the celestial is
one, and the glory of the terrestrial is an-
other.
There is one glory of the sun, and an-
other glory of the moon, and another
glory of the stars; for one star differ-
eth from another star in glory.
So also is the resurrection of the dead.
It is sown in corruption, it is raised in
incorruption :
It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in
glory : it is sown in weakness, it is raised in
power :
It is sown a natural body, it is raised
a spiritual body. There is a natural body,
and there is a spiritual body.
And so it is written. The first man Adam
was made a living soul ; the last Adam was
made a quickening spirit.
Howbeit that was not first which is spir-
itual, but that which is natural ; and after-
ward that which' is spiritual.
The first man is of the earth, earthy:
the second man is the Lord from heaven.
As is the earthy, such are they also that
are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such
are they also that are heavenly.
And as we have borne the image of
the earthy, we shall also bear the image of
the heavenly.
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and
blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God ;
neither doth corruption inherit incorrup-
tion.
For this corruptible must put on incor-
ruption, and this mortal must put on im-
mortality.
So when this corruptible shall have put
on incorruption, and this mortal shall have
put on immortality, then shall be brought
to pass the saying that is written, Death
is swallowed up in victory.
O death, where is thy sting? O grave,
where is thy victory?
The sting of death is sin ; and the strength
of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God, which giveth us
the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye
steadfast; unmovable, always abounding in
the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye
know that your labour is not in vain in the
Lord.

BELOVED, let us love one another: for
love is of God ; and every one that
loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
He that loveth not, knoweth not God ;
for God is love.
In this was manifested the love of God
toward us, because that God sent his only
begotten Son into the world, that we might
live through him.
Herein is love, not that we loved God,
but that he loved us, and sent his Son to
be the propitiation for our sins.
Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought
also to love one another.
No man hath seen God at any time.
H we love one another, God dwelleth
in us, and his love is perfected in us.
Hereby know we that we dwell in him,
and he in us, because he hath given us of
his Spirit.
And we have seen and do testify that
the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour
of the world.
Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is
the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and
he in God.
And we have known and believed the
love that God hath to us. God is love ; and
he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God,
and God in him.
Herein is our love made perfect, that
we may have boldness in the day of judg-
ment : because as he is, so are we in this
world.
There is no fear in love ; but perfect
love casteth out fear : because fear hath
torment. He that feareth is not made per-
fect in love.
We love him, because he first loved us.
If a man say, I love God, and hateth
his brother, he is a bar: for he that loveth
not his brother whom he hath seen, how
can he love God whom he hath not seen?
And this commandment have we from
him. That he who loveth God love his
brother also.

Psalm 19
Coeli enarrant
'T'HE heavens declare the glory of God :
■'• and the firmament sheweth his handy-
work.
Day unto day uttereth speech : and night
unto night sheweth knowledge.
There is no speech nor language : where
their voice is not heard.
Their line is gone out through all the
earth : and their words to the end of the
world.
In them hath he set a tabernacle for
the sun : which is as a bridegroom coming
out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a
strong man to run a race.
His going fortn is from the end of the
heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of
it : and there is nothing hid from the heat
thereof.
The law of the Lord is perfect, convert-
ing the soul : the testimony of the Lord is
sure, making wise the simple.
The statutes of the Lord are right, re-
joicing the heart: the commandment of the
Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.
The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring
for ever: the judgments of the Lord are
true and righteous altogether.
More to be desired are they than gold,
yea, than much fine gold : sweeter also
than honey and the honeycomb.
Moreover by them is thy servant warned :
and in keeping of them there is great
reward.
Who can understand his errors : cleanse
thou me from secret faults.
Keep back thy servant also from pre-
sumptuous sins ; let them not have dommion
over me : then shall I be upright and I
shall be mnocent from the great transgres-
sion.
Let the words of my mouth, and the
meditation of my heart, be acceptable in
thy sight : O Lord, my strength, and my
redeemer.

Psalm 23
Doininus regit vie
THE Lord is my shepherd : I shall not
want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pas-
tures : he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul : he leadeth me
in the paths of righteousness for his name's
sake.
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
stafY they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the
presence of mine enemies : thou anointest
my head with oil ; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life: and I will dwell
in the house of the Lord for ever.
SELECTION XXII
Psalm 27
Dominus illuminatio
"T^HE Lord is my light and my salvation :
•'• whom shall I fear: the Lord is the
strength of my life, of whom shall I be
afraid?
When the wicked, even mine enemies
and my foes, came upon me to eat up my
flesh : they stumbled and fell.

Though a host should encamp against
me, my heart shall not fear : though war
should rise against me, in this will I be
confident.
One thing have I desired of the Lord,
that will I seek after : that I may dwell
in the house of the Lord all the days of
my life; to behold the beauty of the Lord,
and to inquire in his temple.
For in the time of trouble he shall hide
me in his pavilion : in the secret of his
tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set
me up upon a rock.
And now shall mine head be lifted up :
above mine enemies round about me.
Therefore will I offer in his tabernacle
sacrifices of joy: I will sing, yea, I will
sing praises unto the Lord.
Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice :
have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
When thou saidst, Seek ye my face : my
heart said unto thee. Thy face, Lord, will
I seek.
Hide not thy face far from me: put not
thy servant away in anger.
Thou hast been my help : leave me not,
neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
When my father and my mother forsake
me : then the Lord will take me up.
Teach me thy way, O Lord: and lead
me in a plain path, because of mine ene-
mies.
Deliver me not over unto the will of
mine enemies : for false witnesses are risen
up against me, and such as breathe out
cruelty.
I had fainted : unless I had believed to
see the goodness of the Lord in the land
of the living.
Wait on the Lord, be of good courage,
and he shall strengthen thine heart : wait,
I say, on the Lord.

Psalm 43
Judica me, Deus
JUDGE me, O God, and plead my cause
against an ungodly nation : O deliver
me from the deceitful and unjust man.
For thou art the God of my strength,
why dost thou cast me off : why go I
mourning because of the oppression of the
enemy ?
O send out thy light and thy truth, let
them lead me: let them bring me unto thy
holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.
Then will I go unto the altar of God,
unto God my exceeding joy : yea, upon
the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.
Why art thou cast down, O my soul?
and why art thou disquieted within me?

and under his wings shalt thou trust: his
truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror
by night: nor for the arrow that iiieth by
day.
Nor for the pestilence that walketh in
darkness : nor for the destruction that wast-
eth at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and
ten thousand at thy right hand : but it shall
not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold :
and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the Lord, which
is my refuge : even the Most High, thy
habitation ;
There shall no evil befall thee: neither
shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
For he shall give his angels charge over
thee : to keep thee in all thy ways.
They shall bear thee up in their hands :
lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Thou shalt tread upon the lion and
adder : the young lion and the dragon shalt
thou trample under feet.
Because he has set his love upon me,
therefore will I deliver him : I will set him
on high, because he hath known my name.
He shall call upon me, and I will answer
him : I will be with him in trouble ; I
will deliver him, and honor him.
With long life will I satisfy him: and
show him my salvation.

Jubilate Deo
MAKE a joyful noise unto the Lord, all

Know ye that the Lord he is God: it
is he that hath made us, and not we our-
selves ; we are his people, and the sheep
of his pasture.
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving,
and into his courts with praise: be thank-

Psalm 103
Benedic, anima mea
DLESS the Lord, O my soul: and all that
■'-' is within me, bless his holy name.
Bless the Lord, O my soul: and forget
not all his benefits ;
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities : who
healeth all thy diseases;
Who redeemeth thy life from destruc-
tion : who crowneth thee with loving kind-
ness and tender mercies;
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good
things : so that thy youth is renewed like
the eagle's.
The Lord executeth righteousness and
judgment: for all that are oppressed.
He made known his ways unto Moses:
his acts unto the children of Israel.
The Lord is merciful and gracious: slow
to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
He will not always chide : neither will
he keep his anger forever.
He hath not dealt with us after our sins :
nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
For as the heaven is high above the
earth : so great is his mercy toward them
that fear him.
As far as the east is from the west: so
far hath he removed our transgressions
from us.
Like as a father pitieth his children : so
the Lord pitieth them that fear him.
For he knoweth our frame: he remem-
bereth that we are dust.
As for man, his days are as grass: as a
flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
For the wind passeth over it, and it is
gone: and the place thereof shall know
it no more.
But the mercy of the Lord is from ever-
lasting to everlasting upon them that fear
him : and his righteousness unto children's
children ;
To such as keep his covenant: and to
28

those that remember his commandments
to do them.
The Lord hal.h prepared his throne in the
heavens : and his kingdom ruleth over all.
Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel
in strength, that do his commandments :
hearkening unto the voice of his word.
Bless ye the Lord, all ye his hosts: ye
ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
Bless the Lord, all his works, in all
places of his dominion: bless the Lord, O
my soul.
Collects and Prayers
I. A General Confession
ALMIGHTY and most merciful Father,
unto whom all hearts are open, and
all desires are known, all whose command-
ments are just, necessary, and good; we
confess unto Thee, that we have erred and
strayed from Thy ways like lost sheep.
We have followed too much the devices
and desires of our own hearts. We have
offended against Thy holy laws. We have
left undone those things which we ought
to have done; and we have done those
things which we ought not to have done.
But enter not, we beseech Thee, into judg-
ment with us; for in Thy sight shall no
man living be justified. As Thou desirest
not the death of a sinner, but that he may
turn from his wickedness and live — have
mercy, O Lord, upon us, miserable offend-
ers. Spare Thou those, O God, who con-
fess their faults. Restore Thou those who
are truly penitent, according to Thy
gracious promises declared unto mankind
in Christ Jesus our Lord. And grant, O
most merciful Father, that we may here-
after live a godly, righteous, and sober life,
to the glory of Thy holy name, through Thy
blessed Son, our Mediator and Redeemer.
Amen.
2
OLORD God, heavenly Father, we give
thee thanks, that of thy great good-
ness and mercy, thou didst suffer thine
only-begotten Son to become incarnate, and
to redeem us from sin and everlasting death ;
and we beseech thee, enlighten our hearts
by thy Holy Spirit, that we may evermore
yield thee unfeigned thanks for this thy
grace, and may comfort ourselves with the
same in all time of tribulation and tempta-
tion ; through the same, thy dear Son,
Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
3. For the Church
GRANT, we beseech thee, Almighty God,
unto thy Church, thy Holy Spirit, and
the wisdom which cometh down from
above, that thy word, as becometh it, may
not be bound, but have free course and be
preached to the joy and edifying of Christ's
holy people, that in steadfast faith we may
serve thee, and in the confession of thy
name abide unto the end ; through Jesus
Christ our Lord. Amen.
4. For the Children of the Church
ALMIGHTY and everlasting God, who
dost will that not one of these little
ones should perish, and hast sent thine only
Son to seek and to save that which was
lost, and through him hast said. Suffer the
little children to come unto me, and forbid
them not, for of such is the kingdom of
God : most heartily we beseech thee so to
bless and govern the children of thy Church,
by thy Holy Spirit, that they may grow in
grace and in the knowledge of thy word ;
protect and defend them against all danger
and harm, giving thy holy angels charge
over them ; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

/^ LORY be to thee, O God most holy.
^^ Glory be to thee, O God most high.
Glory be to thee, O King of heaven and
earth, who, as a father pitieth his children,
pitiest us. Fill us with joy and gladness
in the Holy Ghost, that when thou shalt
render to every man according to his works,
we may be found acceptable before thee,
through him who hath redeemed us from
the shame and curse of sin, even Jesus
Christ, thy dear Son, our Lord. Amen.
29
Collects and Prayers
ALMIGHTY God, unto whom all hearts
are open, all desires known, and from
whom no secrets are hid, cleanse the
thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration
of thy Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly
love thee, and worthily magnify thy holy
name, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
7
DIRECT us, O Lord, in all our doings,
with thy most gracious favor, and
further us with thy continual help ; that
in all our works begun, continued, and
ended in thee, we may glorify thy holy
name ; and finally, by thy mercy, obtain
everlasting life ; through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Amen.
8
OGOD, who hast prepared for those
who love thee such good things as
pass man's understanding; Pour into our
hearts such love toward thee, that we, lov-
ing thee above all things, may obtain thy
promises, which exceed all that we can de-
sire ; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
9
OGOD, who knowest us to be set in the
midst of so many and great dangers,
that by reason of the frailty of our nature we
cannot always stand upright; Grant to us
such strength and protection, as may sup-
port us in all dangers, and carry us through
all temptations ; through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Amen.
10
A LMIGHTY God, who hast given us
**■ grace at this time with one accord to
make our common supplications unto thee ;
and dost promise that when two or three
are gathered together in thy Name thou
wilt grant their requests ; Fulfil now, O
Lord, the desires and petitions of thy
servants, as may be most expedient for
them ; granting us in this world knowledge
of thy truth, and in the world to come life
everlasting. Amen.
II. A Collect for Peace
^~\ GOD, from whom all holy desires, all
^■^ good counsels, and all just works do
proceed ; Give unto thy servants that peace
which the world cannot give; that our
hearts may be set to obey thy command-
ments, and also that by thee, we, being
defended from the fear of our enemies,
may pass our time in rest and quietness ;
through the merits of Jesus Christ our
Saviour. Amen.
12. Thanksgiving
/^ LORD God, heavenly Father, from
^^ whom without ceasing we receive ex-
ceeding abundantly all good gifts, and who
daily of thy pure grace guardest us against
all evil ; grant us, we beseech thee, thy Holy
Spirit, that acknowledging with our whole
heart all this thy goodness, we may now
and evermore thank and praise thy loving
kindness and tender mercy; through Jesus
Christ, thy Son, our Lord. Amen.
13. A Prayer For Missions
ALMIGHTY and most merciful God,
who hast given thy only Son to be the
propitiation for the sins of the whole world,
help thy Church to fulfil the command to
preach the gospel to every creature. Send
forth more laborers into the harvest. Di-
rect and defend all missionaries in their
work, and grant them abundant success.
Open the hearts of the heathen, that they
may receive thy word and believe on him
whom thou hast sent. Let the nations
speedily be given to thy Son for his inherit-
ance and the uttermost parts of the earth
for his possession. Cause thy people to
consecrate to this service more of the pos-
sessions which thou dost give them, that
the triumphs of thy kingdom may be
hastened and the earth be filled with thy
glory, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

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.
That far brighter Sun to greet.
5 Only God's free gifts abuse not,
Light refuse not.
But His Spirit' s voice obey ;
Thou with Him shalt dwell, beholding
Light enfolding
All things in unclouded day.

And may sweet sleep mine eyelids close ; Forever chase dark sleep away,
Sleep that shall me more vig'rous make And hymns divine with angels sing,
To serve my God when I awake. All praise to Thee, eternal King ?
5 When in the night I sleepless lie,
My soul with heav' nly thoughts supply ;
Let no ill dreams disturb my rest,
No powers of darkness me molest.

Praise Him, all creatures here below,
Praise Him above, angelic host :
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

2 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.
EVENING
3 Thou, who in darkness walkinfj 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, for 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, forever to abide
In that blest day which has no eventide.

Hallelujah! Fairest Morning
German Choral
3 In the gladness of God's worship
We will seek our joy to-day :
It is then we learn the fulness
Of the grace for which we pray ;
When the word of life is given,
Like the Saviour's voice from heaven.
Let the day with Thee be ended,
As with Thee it has begun ;
And Thy blessing, Lord, be granted.
Till earth's days and weeks are done ;
That at last Thy servants may
Keep eternal Sabbath day.

Through all our life, be near us,
With ever joyful hearts,
And blessed peace to cheer us ;
And keep us in His grace;
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills,
In this world and the next.
All praise and thanks to God,
The Father, now be given,
The Son and Him who reigns
With them in highest heaven ;
The One eternal God,
Whom earth and heaven adore :
For thus it was, is now.

ADVENT
Brightly dawned the advent
Of the new-born King,
Joyously the watchers
Heard the angels sing.
Sadly closed the evening
Of His hallowed life.
As the noon-tide darkness
Veiled the last dread strife.
Lo ! again in glory,
'Mid eternal light,
Reigns the King Immortal,
Holy, Infinite.
Lo ! again He cometh,
Robed in clouds of white,
As the Judge Eternal,
Armed with power and might.
Nations to His footstool
Gathered then shall be;
Earth shall yield her treasures,
And her dead, the sea.
Till the trumpet soundeth,
'Mid eternal light,
Reign, Thou King Immortal,
Holy, Infinite.
6 Jesu ! Lord and Master,
Prophet, Priest and King,
To Thy feet, triumphant,
Hallowed praise we bring.
Thine the pain and weeping.
Thine the victory;
Power, and praise, and honor
Be, O Lord, to Thee.
High in regal glory,
'Mid eternal light.
Reign, O King Immortal,
Holy, Infinite.

Their glad'ning cry her soul rejoices,
The shadows of her night depart.
In His might her Lord appeareth,
His word of grace and truth she heareth,
The day-star riseth in her heart !
O come in splendor bright,
Lord Jesus, Light of light,
Hallelujah !
We follow Thee Thy joy to see
Where everlasting bliss shall be.
3 Glory now to Thee be given,
On earth as in the highest heaven.
With lute and harp in sweetest tone.
All of pearl each dazzling portal.
Where we shall join the song immortal
Of saints and angels round Thy throne.
Beyond all earthly ken
Those wondrous joys remain
That God prepares ;
But we rejoice and sing to Thee
Our hymn of joy eternally.

Certainty shall make us strong,
Joyful patience can endure.

And open wide our heavenly home ;
Make safe the way that leads on high,
And close the path to misery.
Rejoice ! Rejoice ! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel !
O come, O come. Thou Lord of might !

In ancient times didst give the law,
In cloud, and majesty, and awe.

Whose love did not the sinner scorn;

Beset with gold and jewels rare.
She yet were far too poor to be

Make Thee a bed, soft, undefiled,

Through His own redeeming love,
For that Child so dear and gentle
Is our Lord in heaven above,
And He leads His children on
To the place where He is gone.
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.

3 Say, ye holy shepherds, say.
What your joyful news to-day ?
Wherefore have ye left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep ?
4 "As we watched at dead of night,
Lo ! we saw a wondrous light ;
Angels singing peace on earth.
Told us of the Saviour's birth."
5 Sacred Infant, all Divine,
What a tender love was Thine,
Thus to come from highest bliss
Down to such a world as this !
6 Teach, O teach us, Holy Child,
By Thy face so meek and mild,
Teach us to resemble Thee,
In Thy sweet humility !

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,
5 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 forever may we sing
Alleluias to our King.

4 Still let Thy love point out my way;
How wondrous things Thy love hath wrought 1
Still lead me, lest I go astray
Direct my work, inspire my thought ;
And if I fall, soon may I hear
Thy voice, and know that love is near.
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 Thou my Guide,
And save me, who for me hast died.

Was all for sinners' gain:

But Thine the deadly pain.

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,
Darkened with anguish, guilt and fear,
Then to my fainting sight appear,
Pleading in heaven for me.
4 When Satan, by my sins made bold,
Strives from Thy cross to loose my hold,
Then with Thy pitying arms enfold,
And plead, oh, plead for me !

Reveals my sins in dread array,
Say Thou hast washed them all away ;
Oh, say Thou plead' st for me !

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 l^id down.

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.
Neither might the gates of death,
Nor the tomb's dark portal,
Nor the watchers, nor the seal,
Hold Thee as a mortal :
But to-day amidst Thine own
Thou didst stand, bestowing
That Thy peace which evermore
Passeth human knowing.

3 Months in due succession, days of lengthening light.
Hours and passing moments praise Thee in their flight ;
Brightness of the morning, sky and fields and sea,
Vanquisher of darkness, bring their praise to Thee.
"Welcome, happy morning!" age to age shall say.
4 Maker and Redeemer, Life and Health of all.
Thou from heaven beholding human nature's fall,
Of the Father's Godhead true and only Son,
Manhood to deliver, manhood didst put on.
Hell to-day is vanquished ; heaven is won to-day.

5 Thou, of life the Author, death didst undergo,
Tread the path of darkness, saving strength to show ;
Come, then, True and Faithful, now fulfil Thy word,
'Tis Thine own third morning: rise, O buried Lord.
"Welcome, happy morning!" age to age shall say.
6 Loose the souls long prisoned, bound with Satan's chain
All that now is fallen raise to life again ;
Show Thy face in brightness, bid the nations see ;
Bring again our daylight : day returns with Thee.
Hell to-day is vanquished ; heaven is won to-day.

2 O Holy Father, Who hast led Thy children
In all the ages, with the Fire and Cloud,
Through seas dry-shod ; through weary wastes bewilderinj
To Thee, in reverent love, our hearts are bowed.
3 O Holy Jesus, Prince of Peace and Saviour,
To Thee we owe the peace that still prevails.
Stilling the' rude wills of men's wild behavior,
And calming passion' s fierce and stormy gales.
4 O Holy Ghost, the Lord and the Life-giver,
Thine is the quickening power that gives increase,
From Thee have flowed, as from a pleasant river,
Our plenty, wealth, prosperity, and peace.
5 O Triune God, with heart and voice adoring,
Praise we the goodness that doth crown our days;
Pray we, that Thou wilt hear us, still imploring
Thy love and favor, kept to us always.

4 Our common mother rests and sings,
Like Ruth, among her garnered sheaves,
Her lap is full of goodly things,
Her brow is bright with autumn leaves.
5 Oh, favors every year made new !
Oh, gifts with rain and sunshine sent !
The bounty overruns our due.
The fulness shames our discontent.
6 God gives us with our rugged soil
The power to make it Eden-fair,
And richer fruits to crown our toil
Than summer-wedded islands bear.
7 Oh, let these altars, wreathed with flowers
And piled with fruits, awake again
Thanksgivings for the golden hours,
The early and the latter rain !

That thorns remain ;
So that earth's bliss may be our guide,
And not our chain.

Our weak heart clings.
Hast given us tender joys and true,
Yet all with wings,
So that we see, gleaming on high,
Diviner things.
5 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.

Though amply blest,

A perfect rest ;
Nor ever shall, until they lean
On Jesus' breast.

4 A thousand ages in Thy sight
Are like an evening gone ;
Short as the watch that ends the night
Before the rising sun.
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.
Time, like an ever-roUing stream,
Bears all its sons away ;
They fly forgotten, as a dream
Dies at the opening day.
Our God, our Help, in ages past ;
Our Hope for years to come ;
Be Thou our Guard while troubles last,
And our eternal Home.

5 Let every creature rise and bring
Peculiar honors to our King,
Angels descend with songs again,
And earth repeat the loud Amen.
4 Blessings abound where'er He reigns;
The prisoner leaps to lose his chains,
The weary find eternal rest,
And all the sons of want are blest.

5 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.
6 Brothers, this Lord Jesus
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.

Here I raise my Ebenezer ;
Hither by Thy help I'm come ;
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger.
Wandering from the fold of God ;
He, to rescue me from danger.
Interposed His precious blood.

Oh, to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be ;
Let that grace now, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to Thee.
Prone to wander. Lord, I feel it ;
Prone to leave the God I love ;
Here's my heart ; oh, take and seal it,
Seal it for Thy courts above.

3 Oh, may Thy soldiers, faithful, true and bold,
Fight as the saints who nobly fought of old.
And win, with them, the victor's crown of gold. Alleluia !
4 Oh, blest communion, fellowship divine.
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine ;
Yet all are one in Thee, for all are Thine. Alleluia !
5 And when the strife is fierce, the warfare long,
Steals on the ear the distant triumph-song,
And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong. Alleluia !
6 The golden evening brightens in the west ;
Soon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest ;
Sweet is the calm of Paradise the blest. Alleluia !
7 But lo ! there breaks a yet more glorious day ;
The saints triumphant rise in bright array ;
The King of glory passes on His way. Alleluia !
8 From earth's wide bounds, from ocean's farthest coast.
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Alleluia !

To find a balm for woe,
To tend the lone and fatherless
Is angels' work below.

To teach the way of life and peace,

Ah ! show me that happiest place,
The place of Thy people's abode,
Where saints in an ecstasy gaze.
And hang on a crucified God !
Thy love for a sinner declare,
Thy passion and death on the tree ;
My spirit to Calvary bear,
To suffer and triumph with Thee.
'Tis there with the lambs of Thy flock.
There only I covet to rest.
To lie at the foot of the Rock,
Or rise to be hid in Thy breast ;
'Tis there I would always abide,
And never a moment depart ;
Concealed in the cleft of Thy side
Eternally held in Thy heart.

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 child-like eyes
Truths that are hidden from the wise.

2 I wish that His hands had been placed on my head,
His arms had been thrown around me,
And that I might have seen His kind look when He
"Let the little ones come unto me."
3 Yet still to His footstool in prayer I may go ;
And ask for a share in His love ;
And if I thus earnestly seek Him below,
1 shall see Him and hear Him above, —
4 In that beautiful place He is gone to prepare
For all who are washed and forgiven ;
And many dear children are gathering there,
"For of such is the kingdom of heaven."
5 I long for the joys of that glorious time,
The sweetest, and brightest, and best,
When the dear little children of every clime
Shall crowd to His arms and be blessed.

The day must dawn, and darksome night be past ;
Faith's journey ends in welcome to the weary,
And heaven, the heart's true home, will come at last.
Angels, sing on! your faithful watches keeping;
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.

Because the Saviour shed His blood
To wash away their sin ;
Bathed in that pure and precious flood.
Behold them white and clean,
Sinking, "Glory be to God on high.'
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."

4 Marching with Thy cross their banner, they have triumphed, following
Thee, the Captain of Salvation, Thee, their Saviour and their King ;
Gladly, Lord, with Thee they suffered; gladly, Lord, with Thee they died;
And by death to life immortal, they were born, and glorified.
5 Now they reign in heavenly glory, now they walk in golden light ;
Now they drink, as from a river, holy bliss and infinite ;
Love and peace they taste forever ; and all truth and knowledge see
In the beatific vision of the Blessed Trinity.
6 God of God, the One-begotten, Light of Light, Emmanuel,
In whose Body joined together all the saints forever dwell.
Pour upon us of Thy fulness, that we may forevermore
God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost adore.

5 O great and glorious vision !
The Lamb upon His throne ;
O wondrous sight for man to see !
The Saviour with His own :
To drink the living waters
And stand upon the shore,
Where neither sorrow, sin, nor death.
Shall ever enter more.
6 O Lamb of God who reignest !
Thou Bright and Morning Star,
Whose glory lightens that new earth
Which now we see from far !
O worthy Judge eternal !
When Thou dost bid us come,
Then open wide the gates of pearl,
And call Thy servants home.

4 With mercy and with judgment
My web of time He wove,
And aye the dews of sorrow
Were histered 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.
^ ' '1
5 The bride eyes not her garment,
But her dear bridegroom's face ;
I will not gaze at glory,

Not at the crown He gifteth.
But on His pierced hand :
The Lamb is all the glory
Of Emmanuel's land.
