PREFATORY NOTES.
THE AIM OF "THE SUNDAY SCHOOL HYMNARY/»
This book is sent forth in the earnest hope that it may minister to
a reverential, sincere, yet glad worship in the Sunday School. The Graded
Arrangement of the Hymns for the Jmiior, Middle, and Senior Sections of the
Scholars will, it is believed, help to this desired end.
THE OLD AND THE NEW.
Old Hynms and Times have an honourable place, but the best writers and
composers of later years are also represented; and probably as the newer
pieces become known they will be deemed worthy of retention in the praise of
the modem Sunday School.
PRINCIPLES OF HYMN SELECTION.
In regard to Hymns — whilst giving due consideration to Literary and
Lyrical qualities, ihS Editor has followed the general principle of selecting
those which young people can sing with sincerity.
Many pieces popular in Sunday Schools have been purposely passed over
as being either weakly sentimental, or beyond the stage of youthful experience.
Others have been omitted because consisting of bare doctrinal statements
having no inspirational or ethical value.
" HYMNS THAT HELP.''
The best hymns for use in the Sunday School are (to adopt and apply
Mr. W. T. Stead*8 suggestive phrase) " Hynms that help " in the building up
of a strong, all-round, Christly character; and the Editor and Publishers
covet no greater result for their efforts than the knowledge that many of the
hymns here brought together have been thus found helpful.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS BE DATES.
In the matter of Dates, grateful acknowledgments are made of indebtedness
to the researches of Mr. J. B. Griffiths, Mr. Jas. T. Lightwood, and others.
The splendid " Dictionary of Hymnology,'* edited by Rev. Canon Julian, has
been of exceptional service.
Where a single date is given it is that of the year when the Hymn or Tune
was first published. Where such a date has not been obtainable the years of
the Author's or Composer's Birth and Death have been substituted.

PREFATORY NOTES.
OTHER ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.
The Editor tenders his warm thanks to Be v. W. Garrett Herder,
Mr. H. W. Pewtress, and to other firiends and correspondents who have so
readily supplied information concerning Authors and Owners of Copyrights.'
He is especially grateful to several gentlemen — Organists, Choirmasters, and
Conductors —who have most kindly met with him from time to time for the
purpose of going through various Tunes, giving him the great advantage of their
experience and judgment in the final selection of the best and most fitting
musical settings of Hymns.
Acknowledgments of permissions for use of Copyright Words or Music will
be found in the preliminary paragraphs to the Index of Copyrights.
THE INDEXES.
The usefulness of the book has, it is hoped, been enhanced by the method
of Classification adopted and by the full set of Indexes supplied. In the
preparation of these Indexes the Editor has received invaluable help
from his wife.
THE MUSIC.
For economy of space in music setting the stems of the Treble and Alto
Notes have been turned upwards, and those of the Tenor and Bass Notes
downwards. In the cases where one note only appears on a stave both parts
are to sing the same note. ^
COBBECTIONS OB SUGGESTIONS.
Notwithstanding the care bestowed in the reading of Proofs some errors
have probably been overlooked, and the Editor will be glad to receive
corrections, or suggestions for future Editions. These may be addressed to him
at 66, Old Bailey, London, E.C.

SOME HYMNS
. . . AND . .
THEIR AUTHORS
Notes by the Editor.
N.B. — The Editor has in preparation a hook upon the Hymns
and Times appearing in ** The Sunday Scliool Hymnary," It is
proposed to give interesting incidents concerning the Authors and ^
Composers^ with the idea that such incidents will provide Super-

-CONCERNING THREE CELEBRATED HYMNS
FOR CHILDREN.
Mrs. jemima LUKE.
*3 tbiiih wbcn 3 reaD tbat ewect etors of olD."
In the year 1841, among the pupils at the Normal
College, Gray's Inn lload, London, was a lady
student, by name Jemima Thompson, who had
for her friend Mary, daughter of the noted African
missionary, Robert Moffat, afterwards the wife
of Dr. David Livingstone. Miss Thompson was
charmed by the air of a Greek march learned at
College. Being desirous of teaching it to her
Sunday scholars, she searched all available hymn
books for words that fitted the melody — but
searched in vain. A little later, on returning to
her South England home, she had one day to take
a stage coach journey to the town of Wellington,
Somerset. There was no other inside passenger in the coach, and during the
solitary journey, on a bright Spring morning, she remembered the Greek march
/ ( xlix )
MRS. JEMIMA LUKE.
SOME HYMNS AND THEIR AUTHORS,
and, taking out an envelope and pencil, wrote down the first two verses of the
hymn that has made her name loved and known throughout the world of
childhood. At a later period the third verse was added. She taught her hymn
to the children in the village Sunday School at Blagdon, where her father —
Thos. Thompson, the philanthropist — was Superintendent. The scholars
were allowed to sing one hymn of their own selection, and when, on the next
Lord's Day, they started ** I think when I read,** the Superintendent turned
inquiringly to one of his younger daughters and asked : " Where did that come
from ? " " Oh, Jemima made it," was the reply. As one of the founders of
The Simday School Union, Mr. Thompson was greatly interested in the Union*8
publications. He begged a copy of the hymn and the tune, and, unknown to
his daughter, sent the MS. to ''The Sunday School Teacher's Magazine,**
where, for the first time, it was published in the number for March, 1641.
Such is the simple story, based on Mrs. Luke's own statement, of the way
in which this classic hymn for children was first given to the world. In 1848
the writer married the Bev. Samuel Luke, a Congregational Minister ; and she
is how spending the evening of a long life of imwearied devotion to Christ and
His service in quietude at Newport, Isle of Wight, having reached the
venerable age of ninety-two.
^
ANDREW YOUNG.
(1807—1889.)
'*Zbcvc ie a bapps lanD."
A SINGULAR likeness obtains between the story of this hymn and that of
"I think when I read." Only three years before Jemima Thompson wrote
her verses, a young Scotch Schoolmaster — Andrew Young — was spending an
evening at the house of some of his pupils. Their mother — a Mrs. Marshall —
sat down at the pianoforte and played several pieces of music. One of them
at once caught the attention of Mr. Young. " What is that piece ? ** he asked.
** An Indian air, called * Happy Land,' " was the reply. The melody haunted
his memory so insistently that he felt there were elements of permanent
popularity in it- at any rate among children, if only it could be wedded to
words. The words came to him, and he taught the new song to his scholars
at Niddry Street School, Edinburgh. Among the visitors to the School was
the Kev. Jas. Gall who, on hearing the new piece, was so captivated by it that
he took down the words and music, had the air harmonized, and afterwards,
in 1843, inserted the song in his book " Sacred Songs." Ere long the hymn
and melody became famous in all lands. So in the " early forties " two of the
best known liymns for children were given to the world.

SOME HYMNS AND THEIR AUTHORS.
ALBERT MIDLANE.
'*Zbcxc'e a fxicn^ tor little cb(ie)ren/'
Mb. Midlane's hymn, with '* I think when I
read " and " There is a happy land/* completes a
trio of most popular nineteenth century hymns
for children.
In an old-fashioned magazine for small people,
entitled ** Good News for the Little Ones," dated
December, 1859, appears the first published version
of the celebrated hymn which there begins " There 's
a rest for little children.*' The author, realizing
that the " rest," the ** hope,'* the ** crown," and the
*' song** for children of which he sung were only
theirs through the "Friend" for little children,
afterwards rearranged the hymn in its present
form, placing the " Friend *' verse first. It is now found in hymn books of all
denominations, both in Great Britain and America, and, translated into many
langiiages and dialects, is sung all over the world. Its author was born in 1825
at Newport, Isle of "Wight, where he has spent the whole of his life, and where
in retirement he still lives, not far from Mrs. Luke*s house. He has written
several hundreds of hymns, some of which have been widely used. A selection
of these, with the quaint title of *' The Bright Blue Sky Hymn-Book,"
comprises 315 of his own composition.
The new hymn, No. 25 in "The Sunday School Hymnary,' "A little
lamb went straying,** is a most picturesque setting of the Good Shepherd story
from the child's standpoint, and will probably become a much-loved hymn by
the little ones. Mr. Midlane has all his life been connected with the Sim day
School. His Sunday School teacher first prompted him to write verses, and the
majority of his pieces have been published for Sunday Schools.

II.— CONCERNING THREE NOTED HYMN-WRITERS.
BISHOP KEN.
(1687-1710.)
Aorniiid anD iBvcning 1)smn0.
** Be sure to sing the Morning and Evening
Hymns in your chamber devoutly, remembering
that the Psalmist, upon happy experience, assures
you that it is a good thing to tell of the loving
kindness of the Lord early in the morning and of
His truth in the night season."
Such was the counsel given to lads by Bishop
Ken in his " Manual of Prayers for the Scholars of
Winchester College,** published in 1674. No
nobler hymn6 for youth or old age have ever been
penned for Day dawn and Eventide worship than
Ken's hymns — " Awsdce, my soul ** and " Glory to
Thee," or, as it appeared first in 1693 and in Ken*8
own revision, 1709, " All jyraise to Thee.**
The hymns singularly expressed the Bishop's own character. Fearless and
brave, as became a man who morning by morning prayed—
" Direct, control, suggest this day.
All I design, or do, or say ;
That all my powers, with all their might,
In Thy sole glory may unite,"
he yet was gentle and humble-minded, as the man would be who, night by
night, dwelt in '* the secret i)lace of the Most High " and so found refuge
" beneath the Almighty wings." According to Lord Macaulay, Ken came
** as near as human infirmity permits to the ideal perfection of Christian
character." The hymns when sincerely sung are gi'eat character-formers.
They purify, sweeten, and strengthen the daily life ; and no life can be ignoble
which is attuned to their inspiring and uplifting strains.

Rev. JOHN KEBLE.
John Eeble (1792—1866) is represented in this
book by his three best known hymns, "0 timely
happy," " Sun of my soul," and " There is a book
who runs may read." They are all centos from
the author's work ** The Christian Year," the first
two forming part of the opening poems, entitled
*' Morning " and ** Evening," and the third being
found under " The Sunday called Septuagesima."
"The Christian Year" was first published in 1827.
Characterized by an exact knowledge of the
Creator's handiwork in nature, by an equally close
familiarity with the Scriptures, by a gift of exquisite
lyrical expression, and, above all, by an intensely
reverential spirit, it has long since become a classic of devotional poetry.
The author, after a brilliant career at Oxford University — first as Student
and afterwards as t[ Fellow, Examining Master, and Tutor — at length became
Vicar of Hursley, a quiet Hampshire village between Southampton and
Winchester. Here from 1836 he laboured devotedly imtil his call home in 1866.
He combined the culture of the Scholar with the sweetness and purity of the
Saint, and was one of the most lovable of men, having the power not simply of
winning the affection of everyone who knew him, but of calling forth (as a
friend expressed it) " the very best kind of love of which they were capable. It
was like loving goodness itself."

Rev. HORATIUS BONAR. D.D.
HoRATius BoNAR, D.D., the great Christian
hymnist of the nineteenth century, was bom in
Edinburgh on December 19, 1808. As a student
he contributed verses to his College Magazine, but
Sunday School workers will be especially interested
in learning that the first writing of hynms was
begotten of his desire to meet the needs of the boys
and girls in his earliest charge at Leith, where he
settled in 1834. Observing a lack of bright times
and suitable words for young people, he selected
two popular melodies, wrote sacred words for them,
and distributed the hymns in leaflet form among
the children. Immediate success attended the
experiment, and thus in producing his first hymns, " I lay my sins on Jesus "
and "The morning, the bright and beautiful morning," this *• Master-singer in

SOME HYMNS AND THEIR AUTHORS,
Israel " was led to that form of service for Christ and His Church through
which he was to enrich and bless the lives of countless multitudes. All the
hymns of these early years were for the young. In 1837 Dr. Bonar removed to
Kelso, where he ministered for thirty years. From Eelso he went to Edinburgh.
After more than twenty years of labour in that city, he passed into the higher
ministry of praise on July 81, 1889.
During a long and honoured life he published — as his son the Bev. H. N.
Bpnar estimates — upwards of 600 hymns and poems. His hymns have a world-
wide reputation, and have been translated into numerous languages. The little-
known hymn-for children, " Early seeking, early finding,** No. 280, was especiaUy
written by Dr. Bonar for the present editor in April, 1880, and was first
published in a small collection of Sunday School Songs. Its author granted to
the editor the exclusive right to have it set to music, and Mr. Myles Beith's
bright melody will, it is hoped, help in making this hymn an established
favourite with young people.

Copi^Al. Inserted by permitHon of Caleb Simper^ BamttapU,
2 Suppose the glistening dewdrop
Upon the grass should say,
" What can a uttle dewdrop do ?
rd better roll away" ;
The blade on which it rested,
Before the day was done,
dim. Without a drop to moisten it,
Would wither in the sun.
3 Suppose the little breezes.
Upon a summer's day,
Should think themselves too small to
The traveller on his way ; [cool
Who would not miss the smallest
And softest ones that blow,
or. And think they made a great mistake
If they were talking so ?
/ 4 How many deeds of kindness
A little child may do,
p Although it has so little strength,
And tittle wisdom too ?
It wants a loving spirit
Much more than strength, to prove
er. How many things a child may do
For others by its love.

In that narrow manger-bed :

Echoes still the angel's song.

When the stars are shining bright,
Voices seem to murmur still,

Words that angels used to sing,

Who for us on eartn was bom.

Ever loved a little child.

Heareth in the courts above,
Children singing o'er the snow,
Of His Birthday long ago.

p 2 But night came over quickly,
The nollow breezes blew —
The sun soon ceased its shining,
All dark and dismal grew ;
The little lamb stood bleating,
As well indeed it might,
So far from home and shepherd,
And on so dark a night.
3 But ah ! the faithful shepherd.
Soon missed the little thing.
And onward went to seek it,
Safe home a^ain to bring ;
He sought on hill, in valley.
And called it by its name —
He sought, nor ceE»ed his seeking,
Untilhe found his lamb.
(24)
4 Then to his gentle bosom
The little Iamb he pressed ;
And as he bore it homeward
He fondly it caressed ;
The little lamb was happy
To find itself secure ;
And happy, too, the shepherd,
Because nis lamb he bore. '
p 5 And won't you love the Shepherd,
So gentle and so kind.
Who came from brightest gtory
His little lambs to find?

Rejoicing in His love,
Till every lamb be gathered
Safe in His home above.

pp 2 When I breathe my simple prayer.
Thou art near, very near;
When I ask Thy tender care,
Wilt Thou look on me?
p Softly in my heart I know,
'Tis Thy voice that murmurs low,
" Come, I'll wash thee white as snow ;
Child, I died for thee."
3 Didst Thou lay Thy glory by.
Saviour mine. Saviour mine ?
p Didst Thou suffer, bleed, and die,
For a child like me ?
/ Gladly I will come toniay ;
From Thy love I cannot stay :
All along the heavenly way

2 Oh ! day by day each Christian child
Has mnch to do, without, within;
p A death to die for Jesu's sake,
A weary war to wage with sin.
3 When deep within our swelling hearts
The thoughts of pride and anger rise,
When bitter words are on our tongues,
And tears of passion in our eyes,
mf 4 Then we may stay the angry blow,
Then we may check the hasty word,
Give gentle answers back again.
And fight a battle for our Lord.
/ 6 With smiles of peace and looks of love
Light in our dwellings we may make.
Bid kind good-humour brighten there^
And do all still for Jesu's sake.
cr, 6 There's not a child so small and weak.
But has hid little cross to take ;
His little work of love and praise,
That he may do for Jesu's sake.

To hush her little child ;
There is a father's voice of praise,
So earnest and so mild.
We love to hear these voices speak.

dim. We should not like so well to have
A silence all around.
3 But there is yet another voice,
That speaks in gentle tone ;

And thanked Him for His voice,

And made their hearts rejoice.

2 It is God : His love looks mighty,
But is mightier than it seems :
Tb our Father: and His fondness
Goes far out beyond our dreams.
r. 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.
p 3 There is no place where earth's sorrows
Are more felt than up in heaven ;
Thereis no place where earth's failings
Have such kindly judgment given.
There is welcome for the sinner.
And more graces for the ^ooa !
There is mercy with the Saviour ;
There is healing in His blood.
/
(61)
4 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 ;
5 There is plentiful redemption
In the Dlood that has oeen 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 simshine
In the sweetness of our Lord.

cr, 2 There is not a sparrow that cleaves the blue air
Unnoticed by God in its fall,
cr. For He made them, He knows them, they all have His care.
And He loves them although they're so smaU ;
/ Let us bless His dear name
Who is always the same,
For He wants us to know that we're thought of above.
And that each little child has His love.
p 3 The moss grows imseen in the niche of the wall,
But could not be there without God ;
And the dew-drops, that find it where rain cannot fall,
He has purposely scattered abroad ;
mf So in my lowly place
I may still feel His grace,
For the dew of His love can e'en come to me there.
And His blessing in answer to prayer.
4 As we in His beautiful image were made,
He loves us beyond all beside ;
p But it grieved Him when sin caused that image to fade.
And to give the lost beauty He died :
cr. And He now from His throne
Would make us His own.
He is saying with love that is boundless and free,
** Let the little ones come unto Me."

Is like the Maker's love,
MTherewith encompassed, great and small,
In peace and order move.
p The dew of heaven is like Thy grace,
cr. It steals in silence down ;
But, where it lights, the favoured place,
By richest fruits is known.
/ 3 One name, above all glorious names,
With its ten thousand tongues,
The everlasting^sea proclaims.
Echoing angelic songs.
The raging fire, the roaring wind.
Thy boundless power display ;
p But in the gentler breeze we find
Thy Spuit's viewless way.
dim, 4 Two worlds are ours ; 'tis only sin
Forbids us to descry
The mystic heaven and earth within.
Plain as the sea and sky.
Thou who hast given me eyes to see
And love this sight so fair,
cr. Give me a heart to find out Thee,
And read Thee everywhere.

p Dark is the passage through the grave,

That He. in some bright upper room,
A place for children might prepare.

He lived on earth a little child,

He said, "I vrill not leave you long.

Yet if we do not love Him now.

Need for young and cheerful voices,
Nothing can supply their place.

And their lives show forth His praise.
Their hosannas are the sweetest

From lips that once kissed idol stones,
Soon as His banner He upraises,
The Spirit moves the breathless bones, —
/ '* Speed, speed Thy work o'er land and ocean ;
The Lord in trimnph has gone forth ;
The nations hear with strange emotion,
From east to west, from south to north."
3 The song has sounded o'er the waters.
And India's plains re-echo joy ;
p Beneath the moon sit India's daughters,
Soft singing, as the wheel they ply—
cr. ^ Thanks to Thee, Lord ! for hopes of glory,
For peace on earth to us revealed ;
Our cherished idols fell before Thee,
Thy Spirit has our pardon sealed."
4 On Afric's sunny shore glad voices
Wake up the mom of Jubilee ;
The Negro, once a slave, rejoices,
Who's freed by Christ is doubly free,—
ff ** Sing, brothers, sing ! yet many a nation
Shall hear the voice of Gfod and live :
E'en we are heralds of salvation ;
The word He gave, well freely give."
6 O'er prairies wild the song is spreading,
Where once the war-cry sounded loud,
p But now the evening sun is shedding
His rays upon a praying crowd, —
" Lord of all worlds, Eternal Spirit !
Thy light upon our darkness shed !
cr. For Thy dear love, for Jesu's merit,
From joyful hearts be worship paid."
6 Hark! harkt a louder sound is booming
O'er heaven and earth, o'er land and sea,
cr. The angel's trump proclaims His coming.
Our day of endless Jubilee —
ff " Hail to Thee, Lord ! Thy people praise Thee,
In every land Thy Name we sing,
On heaven's eternal throne upraise Thee:
Take Thou Thy power, Thou glorious King ! "

All our hearts to be Thine own.

Glory to God in the highest !

Glory to God in the highest !

Only in man He revealeth His grace.
Glory to God in the highest !

Praise the Lord : His tender mercy
Broods o'er eVry living thing;
dim. Calling all the world to nestle
Safe beneath His sheltering wing.
pp Bruised and broken hearts He healeth,
List'neth to the orphan's prayer,
Ev'ry cry and sigh He noteth,
For His love is everywhere.
Praise the Lord, etc.
Pnuse the Lord; His great Redemption
Reaches where no thought can climb :
Rebel man restored, forgiven,
Conquered by a love sublime I
Who can sing that wondrous story ?
p Vainly choicest notes I bring ;
er. Lend your golden harps, ye seraphs.
While my Saviour's love I sing.
Praise the Lord, etc.

filing His love and His marvellous grace ;
Love fa-om eternity, love without end.
Love for the loveless, the sinful and base.

Many to love Him, and jom in the song ;
Calling the weary and wandering in,
Rolfing the chorus of gladness along.
4 Singing for Jesus, our Life and our Light ;
Singmg for Him as we press to the mark ;
Singing for Him when the morning is bright,
Smgmg, still singing, for Him in the dark.
6 Singing for Jesus, our Shepherd and Guide,
Singmg for gladness of heart that He gives ;
Singing for wonder and praise that He died,
Smgmg for blessing and joy that He lives.
6 Singing for Jesus, oh, singing with ioy I
Thus will we praise Him and tell out His love.
Till He shall call us to brighter employ,
Singing for Jesus for ever above.

Sent to meet us on our way,
Flitting in between the shadows
With a bright and helpful ray;
For their messages of mercy.
In the tones of love addressed,
p When the way seems dark before us,
And our spirits are distressed.

Sent to ory the mourner's tear ;

As they whisper Thou art near ;
For their faitnml, gentle chastening.
Brightening every gloomy thought —
Hangmg round, like golden pictures.

While mortals sleep, the angels keep

Proclaim the holy birth.
And praises sing to God tne King,
And peace to men on earth.

The dear Christ enters in.

p 2 We saw no dory crown His head.
As childhood ripened into youth ;
No angels on His errands sped ;
er. He wrought no sign. But meekness, truth,
And duty markea each step He trod,
And love to man, and love to God.
p 3 Jesus ! my Saviour, Master, King,
Who didst for me the burden bear.
While saints in heaven Thy glory sing,
Let me on earth Thy likeness wear.
p Mine be the path Thy feet have trod, —
Duty, and love to man and God.

Stood round His knee ;
And I shall fancy His blessing
Resting on me ;
cr. Words full of kindness,
Deeds full of grace,
All in the lovelight
Of Jesu's face.

The children's band,
Waving a branch of the palm-tree
High in my hand ;
One of His heralds,

Loudest hosannas !
Jesus is King !

How rolled the sea,
Tossing the boat in a tempest
On Galilee!
cr. And how the Master,
Ready and kind,
Chided the billows.
And hushed the wind.
(Girls,)
p 5 Tell how the sparrow that twitters
On yonder tree.
And the sweet meadow-side lily
May speak to me —
cr. Give me their message,
For I would hear
How Jesus taught us
Our Father's care.

Of bitter pain ;
And of the cross where my Saviour
For me was slain—

I bow in my grief to-day 1
The depths of my sad heart are troubled;
/ Oh, waken and save, I pray !
Torrents of sin and of anguisn
Sweep o'er my sinking soul,
And I perish ! I nerish I dear Master :
Oh, hasten, ana take control 1
The winds, etc.

dim. The elements sweetly rest ;
Earth's sun in the calm lake is mirrored,
And heaven 's within my breast ;
Linger, 0 blessed Redeemer,
Leave me alone no more;

And rest on the blissful shore.

From Olivet thev followed,
'Midst an exultant crowd,
Waving the victor palm branch,
And shoutinjB^ clear and loud ;
Bright angels joined the chorus
Beyond the cloudless skj—
" Hosanna in the highest :
Glory to God on high ! "
p 3 Fair leaves of silvery olive
They strewed upon the groimd,
While Salem's circling mountains
Echoed the joyful sound ;
The Lord of men and angels
Rode on in lowly state,
cr. Nor scorned that uttle children
Should on His bidding wait.

The Lord of heaven our King.
Oh ! may we ever praise Him
With heartu and life, and voice,
cr. And in His blissful presence
Eternally rejoice !

/ 2 And yet I know that it is true:
He came to this poor world below,
And wept, and toiled, and mourned, and died,
Only because He loved us so.
3 I cannot tell how He could love
A child so weak and fuU of sin ;
His love must be most wonderful.
If He could die my love to win.
pp 4 I sometimes think about the Cross,
And shut my eyes, and try to see
The cruel nails and crown of thorns,
And Jesus crucified for me :

cr. I could but see a little part
Of that great Love which, like a fire,
Ls always burning in His heart
6 It is most wonderful to know
His love for me so free and sure ;

Nor heard the midnight anthem
They heard with wonderinc awe ;
In rapturous haste they sought Thee,
The Christ so lowly born ;
cr. We too would seek Thee early
In life's rejoicing morn.

Harp notes are ever ringing
To angel-sonffs above ;
cr. Yet will Thou deign to listen
To hymns which children raise,
Thoueh all unskilled our music.
And faint our highest praise.
4 Lord, give us now Thy Spirit;
Qrant us Thy constant grace,
cr. Till, having sought Thee early,
At length we see Thy face;
/ See Thee in cloudless glory.
The Lamb who once was slain,
And join the host of ransomed
Who follow in Thy train.

2 There is an Arm that never tires.
When human strengtli gives way ;
There is a Love that never fails.
When earthly loves decay.
cr. 3 That Eye is fixed on seraph throngs ;
That Arm upholds the sky ;
That Ear is filted with angel songs ;
That Love is throned on high.
4 But there's a power which man can wield,
When mortal aid is vain ;
That Eye, that Arm, that Love to reach.
That listening Ear to gain.
/ 6 That power is prayer, which soars on high
Through Jesus to the throne,
cr. And moves the Hand which moves the world,
To bring salvation down.

But without love's breath —
dim. Neither givine nor receiving
Is a living death.
Love for every, etc.
er. 3 Love by love alone is ripened ;
Hearts through it grow true;

By its power to do.

Give it, having not ;

Share we Christ's own lot.

Stand in His strength alone ;

Hungry thousands waited by ;
And the Lord's disciples murmured
There were no provisions nigh :
But there came the lad with fihes,
And his loaves of barley-bread—
Jesus, in compassion, caUed him,
And the people all were fed.

6 Weary was the world with waiting
For the coming of tiie King,
Who should all its evils conquer.
And the great salvation bring:
When He came, 'twas to a manger,
And a helpless Babe was He ;
But of all the worid, for ever.
Shall that Babe the Leader be.

7 In the story of the ages
There are lines of tender grace.
Which our Father, in His purpose.
Let the little children trace :
Then, 0 Lord, may we be ready
To receive the call divine ;
For we know our simple service
Is a part of Thv design.

p Onr hands are so small,
And our words are so weak,
We cannot teach others ;
/ How then shall we seek
To work for our Lord in His harvest ?
3.
/ We'll work by our prayers,
By the pennies we bring,
By small self-denials—
or. The least little thinff
May work for our Lora in His harvest :
Until, by-and-by.
As the years pass at length,
We too may be reapers
er. And go forth in strength
To work for our Lord in His harvest.

2 Beacons are burning steady and bright,

JesuB, in danger help us and save.

Where in our voyuge perils abide ;
cr. Trace on our ancient chart of the deep
Plainly the passage sailors must keep.

Ere our frail vessels homeward are borne ;

All the Lord's treasure still is secure. W. H. Parker^ 1901.

2 Nights and days are but the stair
That leads us to our Sun :
We press on with praise and prayer,
Until the height be won.
/ There the nights of pain shall cease ;
Darkness never more dismay ;
p There Is never-ending peace,
cr. And everlasting day.
3 We, the pilgrims of the nijght,
Climb up the golden stair ;
Steps in shadow, steps in light,
/ But glory everywhere.
Nights made restful by Thy hand ;
Days made joyful by Thy face:
Thou, Lord ! all the way hast planned ;
cr. We praise Thee for Thy grace.

2. At Day dawn.
Te are aU the children of light, and of the day.—l Thess, v. 6.
BABTH^Lf MON, 1819.
/* 1 O time-ly hap - py, time-ly wise.Hearts
latwith ri - sing morn "a - rise;
Eyes that the beam ce - lea - tial view, Which ev - er - more makes all things new.
2 New every morning is the love
Our wakening and uprising prove ;
cr. Through sleep and darkness safely
brought.
Restored to life,and power,and thought.
3 New mercies, each returning day.
Hover around us while we pra^ ;
p New perils past, new sins forgiven,
New thoughts of God, new hopes of
heaven.
4 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.
<T. 7
This hymn may also be sung to tune
( 439 )
Old friends, old scenes, will lovelier be,
As more of heaven in each we see ;
Some softening gleam of love and
prayer
Will dawn on every cross and care.
The trivial round, the common
task,
Will furnish all we ought to ask ;
Room to deny ourselves ; a road
To bring us, daily, nearer God.
Only, 0 Lord, in Thy dear love
Fit us for perfect rest above :
And help us, this and every day.
To live more nearly as we pray.

p 2 " What means that star," the shepherd said,
" That brightens through the rocky glen ? "
/ And angels, answering overhead,
Sang, " Peace on earth, good- will to men."
p 3 'Tis eighteen hundred years and more
Since those sweet oracles were dumb ;
dim. We wait for Him, like them of yore ;
Alas ! He seems so slow to come.
4 But it was said in words of gold,
No time or sorrow e'er shall dim,
That little children might be bold,
In perfect trust to come to Him.
er. 5 All round about our feet shall shine
A light like that the wise men saw.
If we our vrilling hearts incline
To that sweet life which is the Law.
6 So shall we learn to understand
The simple faith of shepherds then.
And, kindly clasping liand in hand,
Sing, " Peace on earth, good-will to men."
7 For they who to their childhood cling,
And keep their natures fresh as mom,
/ Once more shall hear the angels sing,
" To-day tlie Prince of Peace is born."

2 Wliat rush of hallelujahs
Fills all the earth and sky !
What harping of a thousand harps
Bespeaks the triumph nigh !
0 day. lor which creation
Ana all its tribes were made !
0 joy, for all its former woes
A thousandfold repaid !
/ 3 Oh. then what rapturous greetings,
On Canaan's happy shore.
What knitting severed friendships up,
Where partings are no more !
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle,
p That flowed with tears of late ;
cr. Orphans no longer fatherless,
, Nor widows oesolat^.
4 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 heavens Thy promised sign ;
Thou Prince and Saviour, come !

Was not Thy care my shelter ?
Was not thy love my rest ?
Was not my pillow nightly.

To waste my life away.
But Thou didst call me early.
Just at my dawn of day ;
I never knew the moment
In which I mkht not claim
The comfort of Thy kindness,
The honour of 'l!ny Name.

And Thou dost summon me

Thou didst, from day to day,
For my poor works so largely
With tender mercies pay.

/ 2 Through Qod alone can man be strong ;
To comfort us He gave this song—
*' In Jesus Christ we stand ;
p Death held Him in his gloomy prison,
er. He broke the chains and has arisen,
To rule the deathless land.''
p 3 An inner light, an inner calm,
Have they who trust His champion arm,
And hearing do His will :
For things are not as they appear,
cr. In death is life, in trouble cheer,
So faith is conqueror stilL

For strength renewed, that we may say
Our life, it upward tends ;
p If we who sing must sometimes sigh,
cr. Yet life, beginning with a cry,
In Hallelujah ends.

mf We thank Thee that Thy Church unsleeping.
While earth rolls onward into light,
Through all the world her watch is keeping
And rests not now by day or night.
3.
As o'er each continent and island
The dawn leads on another day,
f The voice of prayer is never silent,
Nor dies the strain of praise away.
m The sun, that bids us rest, is waking
Our brethren 'neath the western sky,
/ And hour by hour fresh lips are making
Thy wondrous doings heard on high.
5.
cr. So be it, Lord; Thy throne shall never.
Like earth's proud empires, pass away ;
But stand, and rule, and grow for ever,
Till all Thy creatures own Thy sway.
John Ellertan, 1871.

2 Oft have we prayed, with longing and beseeching,
Fruit for our toU and glory for Thy cross ;
p Tet slow the reapmg, slow the task of reaching
Far distant souls whose distance is their loss.
3 Oft have we asked, entreating much and hoping.
Only to know our toil was not in vain ;
Wisdom to find the hearts in darkness groping;
p Patience to lead them gently home again.
dim. 4 Soon o'er our harvest field the twilight stealeth,
Low on its margin stands the solemn sun ;
cr. Rising to Thee the reapers' prayer appealeth,
*' Grant us full sheaves before the day is done.
/ 5 So when Thy morning floods the land with glory,
Good will it be to meet and see Thee then !
Learn all the triumphs of Thy love's sweet story,
Lord of the reapers I Hope of sinful men I"

I>rop it where thorns and thistles grow,
Scatter it on the rock.
The good, the fruitful ground,
Expect not here or there ;

Go forth, then, everywhere.
Thou knoVst not which may thrive.
The late or early sown ;
Grace keeps the precious germs alive,
When and wherever strewn.
And duly shall appear,
In verdure, beauty, strength,
The tender blade, the stalk, the ear
And the full com at length.

Thou canst not toil in vain-
Cold, heat, and moist, and dry,
Shall foster and mature the grain.

And heaven cry, " Harvest home."
