PREFACE 


SUPERINTENDENTS  :  Try  to  have  the  singing  a  part  of  the  Sunday-school  work,  not 
apart  from  it. 

CHORISTERS :  Try  to  have  the  singing  spirited  and  spiritual,  but  not  too  fast  nor  too 
loud. 

TEACHERS  :  Try  to  have  all  your  scholars  sing,  and,  if  possible,  set  them  the  example. 

.SCHOLARS :  Try  to  sing  the  tune  pleasantly  and  correctly,  and  think  of  the  meaning  of 
the  words;  so  that  you  can  "  sing  with  the  spirit  and  with  the  understanding  also." 

May  GOD  bless  "  Sunshine,"  and  all  who  sing  from  it.     Amen. 

P.  P.  B. 

Chicago,  Feb,  io,  1873. 


After  the  Song  is  learned  the  Scripture  selection  may  at  any  time  bo  road,  either  alternately,  by  superintendent  (or  teacher)  and 
school,  or  by  single  voices;  but  the  Soug  should  immedidlely  /'olloir,  while  the  thouKbts  are  upon  the  Holy  Word  and  the  minds 
interested  iu  the  subject.    This  remark  applies  to  all  the  Songs  with  Scripture  selectious. 


WELCOME,  SWEET  SUNSHINE. 

"  For  the  Lord  God  is  a  SUN  and  a  shield  :  the  Lokd  avUI  give  grace  and  glory  :  no  good  thing  will  he  with- 
hold from  them  fhat  walk  uprightly." 

"  Thou  Shalt  make  thy  prayer  unto  him,  and  he  shall  hear  thee,       »       *       *       and  the  light  shall  SHINE 
upon  thy  ways."

OH,  THE  SUNSHINE. 


"  But  onto  yon  that  fear  my  name  shall  the  Sun  of  Righteousness  arise  with  healing  in  his  wings." 

"  Tlien  shall  the  righteous  shine  forth  as  the  suu  in  the  kingdom  of  their  Father." 

"  And  the  city  had  no  need  of  t  lie  sun,  neither  of  the  moon,  to  shine  iu  it :  for  the  glory  of  God  did  lighten  it, 

and  tlie  Lamb  is  the  light  thereof." 

"  And  there  shall  be  no  night  there  ;  and  they  need  no  candle,  neither  the  light  of  th»  sun  ;  for  the  Lord  God 

Eiveth  them  liglit :  and  they  shall  reign  forever  and  ever."

How  it  glows  in  the  soul  with  its  pure  and  holy  light.

In  the  vale  of  the  shadow  there  enters  not  a  ray,

In  the  happy  land  of  promise  just  beyond.

S  For  thine  own  sonl  he  bare  it  all— the  scourge  and  piercing  thorn, 
The  nailing  and  the  bruising,  too,  the  liatred,  shame,  and  scorn  ; 
Upon  his  cross  he  yearned  Ibrtliee  ;  for  thee  liis  heartstrings  brake  ; 
Himself  of  all  forsaken,  yet  he  could  not  ihee  forsake; 
Then  evermore,  when  sorrows  sore  thine  inmost  spirit  wring, 
Say,  My  Belov'd  is  crucified  and  I  to  him  will  cling. 

3  He  is  a  Shelter  from  the  storm  when  winds  and  waves  arise, 
A  Shadow  in  the  s(;orching  noon,  a  Light  in  stitrless  skies, 
A  Staff  npon  the  rugsed  road,  a  Shield  when  foes  assail, 

A  Charm  divine  against  whose  might  no  evil  can  prevail; 
For  where  the  cross  of  Jesus  is,  is  peace,  and  there  alone. 
Beneath  the  banner  of  his  love  he  gathereth  his  own. 

4  Is  aught  too  wearisome  or  hai-d  for  Jesns"  sake  to  bear? 

While  he  is  crowned  with  tliorns,  wilt  thou  a  crown  of  roses  wear  ? 
Draw  near,  thou  reft  and  drooping  lieart,  draw  near  and  lift  thy  gaze 
To  him  who  yearns  with  outstretched  arms  thee  from  thy  grief  to  rais 
In  Jesus'  cross  and  passion  find  the  refuge  of  thy  soul. 
Find  there  a  balm,  a  Healer  there,  who  waits  to  make  thee  whole.

In    youth  and  in    childhood,  to  -  geth  -  cr     we    come.  To  pray  that  thy  will      in     our  hearts  may  be      done.

From  "  Prize."    Words  and  Music  by  P.  P.  Bliss.

1.  Look  to     Jo  -  sas,  weary  one,  Look  and  live,  look  and  live  ;  Look  at  what  the  Lord  has  done,  Look  and  live; 

2.  Though  unworthy,  vile,  unclean.  Look  and  live,  look  and  live :  Look  away  from  self    and    sin.  Look  and  live  ; 
3  Though  you  've  wandered  far  away.  Look  and  live,  look  and  live  ;  Harden  not  your  heart  to-day.  Look  and  live.

UP  WITH  THY  HANDS  TO  JESUS. 


"  As  we  neared  the  steamer  in  our  little  boat  the  storm  raged  fearfully.  The  waves  ran  so  high  we  could 
not  approach  directly,  but  were  ordered  to  the  lee,  and  even  then  we  were  in  imminent  peril.  The  captain  threw 
himself  flat  on  the  deck  and  reached  down  his  hands  for  me.  But  1  was  frightened  and  weali,  my  fingers  were 
benumbed  and  I  dared  notgive  him  my  hands. 

"  He  called  out  to  me  in  a  loud,  stern  voice,  'Up  with  your  hands,  woman,  or  I  can  not  save  you  !'  I  obeyed, 
and  he  immediately  drew  me  upon  the  deck.  So  I  say  to  thee,  poor  sinner, '  Up  witli  thy  hands  to  Jesus,  or  be 
can  not  save  thee."  Miss  Sabah  Smiley.

is    al-ways    near  me,  Tho'  so  young  and  small ;  Kot  a  look,  or     word,  or  thought.  But  God  knows'it  all.

2  Sweet  iields,  beyond  the  swelling  flood, 

Stand  dressed  in  living  green  ; 
So  to  the  Jews  old  Canaan  stood. 

While  Jordan  rolled  between. 
But  tim'rous  mortals  start  and  shrink, 

To  cross  this  narrow  sea ; 
And  linger,  shiv'ring  on  the  brink 

And  fear  to  launch  away. 


3  Oh,  could  we  make  our  doubts  remove, 

Those  gloomy  doubts  that  rise — 
And  see  the  Canaan  that  we  love, 

With  unbeclouded  eyes. 
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. 


BECAUSE  HE  LOVED  ME  SO.

••  But  Daniel  purposed  in  his  heart  that  he  would  not  defile  himself  with  the  portion  of  the  king's  meat,  nor 
With  the  wine  which  he  drank. 

"  So  Daniel  was  taken  up  out  of  the  den,  and  no  manner  of  hurt  was  found  upon  him,  because  he  believed 
in  his  God." 


Dedicated  to  "Daniel 

's  Band"  of  the  First  Congregational  Church,  Chicago.

By  every  hope  of  the  rest  that  shall  be,

Draw  us  in  mercy  more  nearly  to  thee. 

Oh,  love  that  constraineth,  etc

Bring  us  at  last  to  thy  heaven  and  thee.

PULL  FOR  THE  SHORE. 


"  We  watched  the  wreck  with  great  anxiety.  The  life-boat  had  been  out  some  hours,  but  could  not  reach  the 
vessel  through  the  great  breakers  tliat  rdged  and  foamed  on  the  sand-bank.  The  boat  appeared  to  be  leaving  the 
crew  to  perish.    But  in  a  few  minutes  the  captain  and  sixteen  sailors  were  taken  off,  and  the  vessel  went  down. 

"'  When  the  life-boat  came  to  you,  did  you  expect  it  liad  brouglit  some  tools  to  repair  your  old  ship?'    I  said. 

" '  Oh,  no ;  she  was  a  total  wreck.  Two  of  her  masts  were  gone,  and  if  we  had  stayed  mending  her,  only  a  few 
minutes,  we  must  have  gone  down,  sir.' 

"  '  When  once  off  the  old  wreck  and  safe  in  the  life-boat,  what  remained  for  you  to  do  ? 

" '  Nothing,  sir,  but  just  to  pull  for  the  shore.'  " 

"  Therefore,  if  any  man  be  in  Christ,  he  is  a  new  creature :  old  things  are  passed  away ;  behold,  all  things  are 
become  new."  . 

"  Wherefore,  my  beloved,       «       *       *       work  out  your  own  salvation  with  fear  and  trembling."

armour  Come  and  let  us  go  over  to  the  Philistines  garrison,  that  is  on  ilie  other  side:  It  maybe  that  the  Lord

unto  him  Do  all  that  is  in  thy  heart:  turn  thee;  behold,  I  am  witli  thee  according  to  thy  heart.  And  Jonathan 
climbed  up  upou  his  hands  and  upon  his  feet,  and  his  armour-bearer  after  him:  and  they  fell  before  Jouatlian ;

Like  a  snowy  flock  of  strange  sea-birds,  alighting  on  a 
shore  of  rock 

Whence,  no  man  can  see,  in  a  soft  shower,  drifting, 
drifting  ceaselessly, 


Si-lent  thus  and  bright.  Fell  the  man-na    in  the  night. 
Till  the  morning  light,  Falls  the  man-na   in  the  night. 


BLESSED  IS  THE  MAN.     Chant.

1.  Blessed  is  the  man  that  walketh  not 
in  the  counsel 


f  Kor  standeth  in  the  way  of  sinners, 
of  the  un  -  godly,  \  nor  sitteth  in  the 


of     the   scornful. 


2  But  his  delight  is  in  the  |  law  "  of  the  |  Lord  ; 

And  in  his  law  doth  he  |  medi-tate  |  day  and  |  night. 

S  And  he  shall  be  like  a  tree  planted  by  the  |  rivers  "  of  | 
water, 
That  bringeth  forth  his  |  fruit—  |  in  his  |  season ; 

4  His  leaf  also  |  shall  not  |  wither ; 

And  whatso- 1  ever  ••  he  |  doeth  ••  shall )  prosper. 


5  The  ungodly  \  are  not  I  so : 

But  are  like  the  chaif  which  the  |  wind—  |  driveth  "  a-  \ 
.    way. 

6  Therefore  the  ungodly  shall  not !  stand  "  in  the  |  judgment, 

Nor  sinners  in  the  congre-  |  gation  |  of  the  |  righteous : 

7  For  the  Lord  knoweth  the  |  way  ••  of  the  |  righteous: 

But  the  way  of  the  un- 1  godly  |  shall—  |  perish.

2  Wine  is  a  mocker !  though  seems  it  so  charming, 

Though  friends  call  it  wholesome  and  good  ; 
There's  mischief  there  lurking  that  ever  is  harming, 
To  fire  and  to  poison  the  blood. 

3  Wine  is  a  mocker !  it  leads  into  sinning 

The  thousands  who  perish  from  drink ; 
'T  is  here  that  the  drunkard  has  had  his  beginning. 
The  first  step  that  caused  him  to  sink. 


4  Wine  is  a  mocker!  at  first 't  is  alluring, 

At  last  like  an  adder  it  stings; 
And  bites  like  a  serpent,  with  poison  enduringf, 
And  mis'ry  and  wretchedness  brings. 

5  Wine  is  a  mocker !  the  social  glass  shun  it, 

Oh,  linger  not  where  'tis  in  sight. 
Oh.  dashit  awav  from  you.  look  not  upon  it, 
Stand  firm  and  be  true  to  the  right.

I  WILL  NOT  LET  THEE  GO. 


"And  Jacob  was  left  alone;  and  there  wrestled  a  man  with  him  until  the  breaking  of  the  day.  And  ho 
said,  Let  me  go,  for  the  day  breaketli.  And  he  said,  I  will  not  let  thee  go,  except  thou  bless  me.  And  he  blessed 
him  tliere. 

"  And  they  drew  nigh  unto  the  village  whither  they  went  ;  and  he  made  as  though  he  would  have  gone  fur- 
ther. But  they  constrained  him,  saying.  Abide  with  us;  for  it  is  toward  evening,  and  the  day  is  far  spent.  And 
he  went  in  to  tarry  with  them."

The  Christian's  native  air; 
His  watchword  at  the  gates  of  death ; 
He  enters  heaven  with  prayer. 

4  O  thou  bv  whom  we  come  to  God — 

The  Life,  the  Truth,  the  Way— 
The  path  of  prayer  thyself  hast  trod ; 
Lord,  teach  us  how  to  pray  !

O  God,  we  wish  tliera  there ; 
Our  life,  our  friends,  our  souls  we  leave 
Entirely  to  thy  care.

Whatever  they  may  be. 
Pleasing  or  painful,  dark  or  bright, 
As  best  may  seem  to  thee. 

3  Our  times  are  in  thy  hand. 

Why  should  we  doubt  or  fear  ? 


A  Father's  hand  will  never  cause 
His  child  a  needless  tear.

Toward  lieavi^n  we  calmly  sail. 
With  grateful  hearts,  O  God,  to  thee, 
We  '11  own  the  fav'ring  gale.

And  rest  delay  to  come, 
Blest  be  the  sorrow,  kind  the  storm, 
Which  drives  us  nearer  home.

All  hail  the  power  of  Jesus'  name  ! 

Let  angels  prostrate  fall ; 
Bring  forth  the  royal  diadem, 

And  crown  him  Lord  of  all ! 
Let  every  kindred,  every  tribe. 

On  this  terrestrial  ball. 
To  him  all  majesty  ascribe. 

And  crown  him  Lord  of  all  ! 
Oh,  that  with  yonder  sacred  throng. 

We  at  his  feet  may  fall ! 
We'll  join  the  everlasting  song. 

And  crown  him  Lord  of  all  1 


There  is  a  fountain  filled  with  blood. 

Drawn  from  Immanuel's  veins; 
And  sinners,  plung'd  beneath  that  flood. 

Lose  all  their  guilty  stains. 
The  dying  thief  rejoiced  to  see 

That  fountain  in  his  day  ; 
And  there  may  I,  though  vile  as  he. 

Wash  all  my  sins  away. 
Since  first  by  faith,  I  saw  the  stream 

Thy  flowing  wounds  supply. 
Redeeming  love  has  been  my  theme. 

And  shall  be  till  I  die. 


Nearer,  my  God,  to  thee. 

Nearer  to  thee : 
Ev'n  though  it  be  a  cross 

That  raiseth  me, 
Still  all  my  song  shall  be. 
Nearer,  my  God,  to  thee. 

Nearer  to  thee. 


Though  like  a  wanderer. 
Daylight  all  gone. 

Darkness  be  over  me. 
My  rest  a  stone. 

Yet  in  my  dreams  I  'd  be 

Nearer,  my  God,  to  thee. 
Nearer  to  thee. 


Must  Jesus  bear  the  cross  alone. 

And  all  the  world  go  free  ? 
No  :  there 's  a  cross  for  every  one. 

And  there  's  a  cross  for  me. 

The  consecrated  cross  I  '11  bear, 
Till  death  shall  set  me  free  ; 

And  then  go  home,  my  crown  to  wear- 
For  there  's  a  crown  for  me !

Wandering  from  the  fold  of  God  ;

Interposed  his  precious  blood. 
Oh,  to  grace  how  great  a  debtor 

Daily  I  'm  constrained  to  be  I

Prone  to  wander.  Lord,  I  feel  it ;

Weary  sinner  !  keep  thine  eyes 
On  th'  atoning  Sacrifice  ; 
View  him  bleeding  on  the  tree. 
Pouring  out  his  life  for  thee. 
Surely  Christ  thy  griefs  hath  borne; 
Weeping  soul  no  longer  mourn  : 
Now  by  faith  the  Son  embrace, 
Plead  his  promise,  trust  his  grace. 
Cast  thy  guilty  soul  on  him  ; 
Find  him  mighty  to  redeem  : 
At  his  feet  thy  burden  lay  ; 
Look  thy  doubts  and  care  away.

Towering  o'er  the  wrecks  of  time 
All  the  light  of  sacred  story 

Gathers  round  its  head  sublime.

Never  shall  the  cross  forsake  me; 

Lo!  it  glows  with  peace  and  joy.

All  to  leave  and  follow  tltf e  ; 
Naked,  poor,  despised,  forsaken, 

Tlion,  from  hence,  my  all  shalt  be: 
Perish  every  fond  ambition, 

All  I  've  sought,  or  hoped,  or  known  ; 
Yet  how  ricli  is  my  condition, 

God  and  heaven  are  still  my  own. 

2  Let  the  world  despise  and  leave  me, 

They  have  left  my  Savior,  too; 
Human  hearts  and  looks  deceive  me; 

Thou  art  not,  like  them,  untrue : 
And  while  thou  shalt  smile  upon  me, 

God  of  wisdom,  love,  and  might, 
Foes  may  hate,  and  friends  may  scorn  me. 

Show  thy  face  and  all  is  bright.

And  I  will  do  my  little  mite 
The  precious  words  to  sliow; 

And  for  tliis  worthy  purpose,  I 
Will  leiid  my  great,  round  O. 


My  letter  ends  tlie  holy  name 
Of  him  we  love  and  fear ; 

'Tis  D— I'll  turn  it  round  to  view, 
And  you  will  see  it  here. 


My  mission  is  an  humble  one, 
Yet  to  do  good  I'll  try  ; 

To  help  all.  when  I'm  needed,  so

My  little  aid  is  needed  now,

So  joyfully  I  bring  to  view

2  When  the  heathen  kings  to  Gibeon  came 

And  I  pitched  the  battle  |  there ; 
Who  conquered  in  Jehovah's  name — 
Who  I  proved  the  power  of  |  prayer  ? 

"Then  spalce  Joshua  to  the  Lord,  and  said  in  the 
Sight  of  Israel,  Sun,  stand  thou  still  upon  Gibeon  ;  and 
thou,  Moon,  in  the  valley  of  Ajalon.  So  the  sun  stood 
still  in  tlie  midst  of  heaven,  and  hasted  not  to  go  down 
about  a  whole  day.  And  theie  was  no  day  like  that 
before  it  or  after  it,  that  the  Lord  hearkened  unto  tlie 
voice  of  a  man  ;  for  tlie  Lord  fought  for  Israel." 

3  When  the  shouts  of  sacrifice  and  praise 

To  I  Dagon  filled  the  |  air, 
One  sad  cry  did  the  captive  raise — 
Who  1  heard  blind  Samson's  |  prayer  ? 


"And  Samson  called  unto  the  Lord,  and  said,  O  Lord 
God,  remember  me,  I  pray  thee,  and  strengthen  me,  I 
pray  thee,  only  this  once,  O  God,  that  I  may  be  at  once 
avengeil  of  the  Philistines  for  my  two  eyes.  And  Sam- 
son took  liold  of  the  two  middle  pillars  upon  which  the 
house  stood,  and  on  which  it  was  borne  up,  of  the  one 
with  his  right  hand,  and  of  the  other  with  li is  left. 
And  Samson  said,  let  me  die  with  tlie  Philistines.  And 
he  bowed  himself  with  all  his  might;  and  the  house 
fell  upon  the  lords,  and  upon  all  tlie  people  thai  were 
therein.  So  the  dead  which  he  slew  at  his  death  were 
more  than  they  whicli  he  slew  in  his  life." 

4  When  the  burning  sky  seemed  brass  indeed 
Who  I  then  besought  the  |  Lord  ? 
Who  then  so  earnestly  did  plead, 
Till  I  he  the  rain  out-  |  poured  ? 

"And  Elijah  went  up  to  the  top  of  Carmel,  and  he 
cast  himself  down  upon  the  earth,  and  put  his  face 
between  his  Icnees.  And  said  to  Ills  servant.  Go  up 
now,  look  toward  the  sea.  And  he  went  up,  and  looked,

and  said.  There  is  nothing.  And  he  said,  Go  again  seven 
tiiwes.  And  it  came  to  pass  at  the  seventli  time,  that 
he  said,  Behold,  there  ariseth  a  little  cloud  out  of  tlie 
sea,  like  a  man's  hand.  And  he  said,  Go  up,  sny  unto 
Ahab,  Prepare  thy  chariot,  and  get  tliee  down,  tliatthe 
rain  stop  thee  not.  And  it  came  lo  pass  in  the  mean- 
while, that  the  heaven  was  blaclc  with  clouds  and 
wind,  and  there  was  a  great  rain." 

5  When  the  righteous  king  on  God  did  call, 

When  I  told  that  he  must  |  die ; 
Did  prayers  and  tears  avail  at  all ; 

Did  I  heaven  heed  his  |  cry  ? 
"And  it  came  to  pass  afore  Isaiah  was  gone  out  into 
the  middle  court,  that  tiie  woid  of  the  Lord  came  to 
him,  saying,  Turn  again,  and  tell  HezeUiah  the  cap- 
tain of  uiy  people,  Thus  saitli  the  Lord,  tlie  God  of 
David  tliy  fatlier,  I  liave  heard  thy  prayer,  I  have 
seen  thy  "tears;  behold,  I  will  heal  thee:  on  the  third 
day  tliou  shalt  go  up  unto  the  house  of  the  Lord." 

6  When  the  city  quite  forsook  the  law, 

And  I  far  from  God  did  |  stray  ; 


Who,  when  he  tlieir  repentance  saw,

"So  the  people  of  Nineveh  believed  God,  and  pro- 
claimed a  fast,  and  put  on  sackc-lolh,  from  the  greatest 
of  them  even  to  the  least  of  them.  And  God  saw  their 
works,  that  they  turned  from  their  evil  way  ;  and  God 
repented  of  the  evil,  that  he  had  said  tliathe  would  do

And  I  what  did  Jesus  |  say, 
Why  we  should  tell  him  all  our  need, 
And  I  "  without  ceasing  |  pray  "? 

"Watch  ye,  therefore,  and  pray  always.  Verily, 
verily,  I  say  unto  you,  whatsoever  ye  shall  ask  the 
Fatlier  in  my  name,  lie  will  give  it  you." 

"As  forme,  I  will  call  upon  God  ;  and  the  Lord  sliall 
save  me.  Evening,  and  morning,  and  at  noon,  will  I 
pray,  and  cry  aloud ;  and  lie  shall  hear  iny  voice."

TIL 

I  '11  take  your  paper,  Mr.  E., 
If  I  may  join  your  band ; 

For  I  a  Merchant  hope  to  be, 
A  merchant  rich  and  grand. 

IV. 

Be  true  and  honest,  rich  or  not, 
All  ye  who  trade  or  teach, 

And  do  your  best  whate'er  your  lot- 
I  think  I  'd  like  to  French. 


My  choice,  I  'm  free  enough  to  say. 
Perhaps  you  '11  think  it  queer. 

Would  be,  if  I  could  have  my  way, 
To  be  an  Engineer. 

VI. 

I  'II  go  to  Congress,  if  I  can, 

I  have  a  point  in  view ; 
I  '11  try  to  be  an  honest  man, 

And  be  a  Buler,  too. 


VII. 

No  dwelling-place  with  naked  walls, 

A  cheerful  home  can  be ; 
A  mystic  voice  my  spirit  calls — 

An  ArtisCs  brush  for  me. 

VIIL 

I  '11  preach  and  teach  and  write  and  read, 

And  travel  if  I  can ; 
I  '11  give  whate'er  my  neighbors  need, 

And  be  a  Nice  old  man. 

IX. 

I  may  not  serve  my  country  so, 

Nor  live  to  be  quite  old  ; 
So  to  the  army  I  will  go. 

To  be  a  Captain  bold. 

X. 

For  Temperance  my  voice  shall  tell, 
Where'er  my  way  may  wend ; 

If  all  be  well  that  endeth  well, 
I  '11  answer  to  the  End.

JOHNNY;   OR,  THE  LITTLE  CRIPPLE'S  SONG. 


[This  song  is  designed  to  illustrate  that  wojidarful  resignation,  and  even  happiness,  which  is  sometimes  seen 
in  those  who,  to  ordinary  eyes,  have  nothing  to  make  life  desirable.  A  pleasant  etfect  may  be  produced  by- 
having  the  Refrain  (Johnny's  part)  sung  by  a  child,  or  young  person,  in  an  adjoining  room,  opening  or  closing 
the  door  to  make  it  near  or  more  distant.]

Trampling  tlie  clover  blooms 

Down  'niong  tlie  grasses.

Author  of  liberty. 

To  thee  we  sing: 
Long  may  our  land  be  bright 
Witli  freedom's  holy  lisht; 
Protect  us  by  thy  might, 

Great  God,  our  King  ! 


The  God  of  liarvest  praise;

Hand,  heart,  and  voice! 
The  valleys  laush  and  sing. 
Forests  and  mountains  ring. 
The  plains  their  tribute  briug- 

Tlie  streams  rejoice. 


2  Yea,  bless  his  holy  name, 
And  joyous  thanks  in-oelaim. 

Through  all  the  eartli ; 
To  glory  in  your  lot 
Is  comely  ;  but  be  not

With  sweet  accord ; 
From  field  to  garner  throng, 
Bearing  your  sheaves  along, 
And  In  your  harvest  song, 

Bless  ye  the  Lord.
