The document appears to be excerpts from 'The Baptist Hymnal' discussing hymns, music, and the purpose and considerations for including certain selections.

According to the preface, the purpose is to furnish churches with a book that aids in worshipping God and makes services more attractive and delightful.

Some considerations mentioned are: 1) Providing a familiar tune for every hymn, 2) Providing less familiar but high quality alternative tunes, 3) Pairing hymns of irregular meter with appropriate tunes.

NOTICE. —Many hymns and tunes in this collection, as well as the arrange*
ments and adaptations of music, are introduced "by permission," either pur-
chased or given and, therefore, cannot be used without the consent of the authors
;

or owners of the Copyrights.


PREFACE.
The design of those concerned in the preparation of the Baptist Hymnal, has
been to furnish the churches a book which shall aid in the worship of God, and
so make the service of His house more attractive and delightful. They have
sought both in the selection of Hymns, and in the choice and adaptation of music,
to secure to God's people the best possible expression of the praises, pleadings, and
aspirations of their hearts.
By restricting the number of hymns to those which are believed to be all
that are necessary, space has been found for a most liberal provision in music.
A definite plan has controlled the selection, viz:
1. Wherever the book
is opened, a familiar tune is provided, if possible, for
every hymn
before the eye, preferably a tune already wedded to the words. The
book thus becomes at once and in every part available.
2. As advancing tastes desire richer effects in harmony, on the same or op-
posite page with most hymns is afforded the alternative of a less familiar tune of
the highest musical worth. The melodies of these more elaborate compositions
may be sung by the congregation in unison, harmony being supplied by choir or
organ.
3. As it is impossible to supply certain hymns of irregular measure with a
choice of tunes, they are attended simply by the music, old or new, to which their
established or growing popularity is largely due.
4. In the fev/ instances where for regular meters but one tune was found
practicable, the choice has been given to a familiar one, except in a minimum of
cases and for controlling reasons.
All sources have been laid under contribution for the music. The ani-
mated Sacred Songs of Lowry, Bliss, and others; Psalm-tunes hallowed by use for
more than a generation; the familiar Church Psalmody of Mason, Bradbury, Kings-
ley, and Woodbury the stately Ancient Chorals of Europe, and the free melodies
;

and rich harmonies from the school of church music represented in England by
Dykes and Barnby on the Continent by Gounod and Hiller, and in America by
;

Cutler and Cornell all will be found here represented.


;

The especial features of the Hymnal are therefore :

1. A collection of hymns shown by experience to be useful.


2. larger pro- A
vision of popular melodies than is usual in books of this character. 3. choice, A
subject to few exceptions, between tunes generally known and newer or more
elaborate melodies.
With this brief preface the book is sent forth with the earnest prayer that it
may prove a blessing to the churches and the world. To God be the glory of any
success it may achieve.

PUBLISHEK'S NOTE.

Two years ago the Publication Society resolved to publish another Hymn
Book, and appointed a Committee, consisting of A. J. Rowland, D.D., P. 8.
Henson, D. D., and Rev. L. P. Hornberger, to attend to its compilation. Under
instructions from the Board, this Committee, in connection with the Secretary
of the Society, B. Griffith, D. D., invited H. M. King, D. D., of Boston, Mass.,
H. H., Tucker, D.D., of Atlanta, Ga., J. A. Smith, D. D., of Chicago, 111.,

E. G. Taylor, D.D., of Providence, R. L, Rev. H. M. Richardson, of Mary-


ville. Mo., Samuel Graves, D. D., of Grand Rapids, Mich., T. T. Eaton, D. D., of

Petersburgh, Va., Basil Manly, D. D., of Louisville, Ky., E. T. Winkler, D.D., of


Marion, Ala., Rev. T. S. Griffith, of Holmdel, K J., Daniel Reed, D.D., of
Bloomington, III, T. H. Pritchard, D. D., of Wake Forest, K
C. and Wayland
,

Hoyt, D. D., of Brooklyn, N. Y., become a Consulting Committee, and to


to
furnish lists of Hymns necessary in their judgment for purposes of worship. The
Hymns thus sent were carefully considered by the Committee, and wherever five
or more of those sending them concurred, were adopted for publication. The
hymns were then placed in the hands of W. H. Doane, Mus. Doc, and E. H.
Johnson, D. D. Musical Editors, who, during the process of the work, were in fre-
,

quent consultation with A. J. Rowland, D.D., Chairman of the Society's Com-


mittee. On the completion of their labors, a Proof of the entire book was taken
and sent to the Consulting Committee and others, for criticisms and suggestions.
It will thus be seen that the Baptist Hymnal is the result of long and pains-
taking toil, and that it embodies the choices and tastes of a large number of our
well-known workers. The Publication Society trusts that the book will prove
acceptable to the churches in all parts of the country, and a real addition to the
Service of Praise. Its officers and managers desire to express their gratitude to

the members of the Consulting Committee, to the Hymnal Committee of the Board,
to E. H. Johnson, D. D., for very important and uncompensated labor, and espe-
cially to Dr. W. H. Doane for his invaluable and gratuitous service as Musical
Editor-in-Chief.
Acknowledgments are also due and are hereby made to Messrs. Biglow &
Main, Mr. George Kingsley, Dr. Robert Lowry, Dr. J. Ireland Tucker, W. W.
Huntington, Esq., Messrs. E. and J. B. Young, T. E. Perkins, and others, for
permission to use valuable copyright music.
B. GRIFFITH, Secretary.

CERTIFICATE.
The Undersigned, having been requested by the Officers of the American Baptist
Publication Society to examine the Proof sheets of the " Baptist Hymnal," for the compi-
lation of which most of us sent lists of Hymns, and to suggest such emendations as might be
thought by us expedient to make the Book more acceptable and useful, hereby certify that
we have carefully performed the duties assigned us, and unite in heartily commending the
Hymnal to the Churches. The list of hymns comprises all that are really needful for public
worship; the adaptation of tunes and hymns by the Musical Editors is all that could be
wished; and the provision of so much variety, especially in the music, fits the book to the
varied culture and tastes of all grades of worshipers.
We earnestly hope that this new and most excellent aid to worship will have the widest
possible circulation and use.

SIR ROBERT GRANT. 1830.

O worship the King, all glorious above,


And gratefully sing his wonderful love.
Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of days,
Pavilioned in splendor, and girded with praise.
Thy bountiful care what tongue can
recite?
It breathes in the air, shines in the light.

It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.
Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
In thee do we trust, nor find thee to fail:
Thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend!
* CHARLHS WESLEY. 1745.

1 Ye servants of God, your Master proclaim.


And publish abroad his wonderful name;
The name all-victorious of Jesus extol;
His kingdom is glorious, and rules over all.
2 Then let us adore, and give him his right.
All glory and power and wisdom and might,
All honor and blessing, with angels above.
And thanks never ceasing, for infinite love.

1 Yenations round the earth, rejoice 1 Before Jehovah's awful throne.


Before the Lord, your sovereign King, Ye nations, bow with sacred joy:
Serve him with cheerful heart and voice, Know that the Lord is God alone;
With all your tongues his glory sing. He can create, and he destroy.
2 The Lord is God 'tis he alone
; 2 We are his people, we his care,
Doth life and breath and being give Our souls, and all our mortal frame:
We are his work, and not our own What lasting honors shall we rear,
The sheep that on his pastures live. Almighty Maker, to thy name ?
3 Enter his gates with songs of joy, 3 We'll crowd thy gates with thankful songv
With praises to his courts repair, High as the heavens our voices raise >
And make it your divine employ And earth, with her ten thousand tongues.
To pay your thanks and honors there. Shall fill thy courts with sounding praise^
4 The Lord is good the Lord is kind ; 4 Wide as the world is thy command,
Great is his grace, his mercy sure; Vast as eternity thy love:
And the whole race of man shall find Firm as a rock thy truth shall stand,
His truth from age to age endure. When rolling years shall cease to move.

1 Bethou, O
God, exalted high ; 1 Fromthat dwell below the skies,
all
And as thy glory fills the sky. Let the Creator's praise arise
So let it be on earth displayed, Let the Kedeemer's name be sung,
Till thou art here, as there, obeyed. Through every land, by every tongue.

2 OGod, my heart is fixed 't is bent 2 Eternal are thy mercies. Lord

Itsthankful tribute to present; Eternal truth attends thy word


And, with my heart, my voice I'll raise Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore,
To thee, my God, in songs of praise. Till suns shall rise and set no more.
DOXOLOGY.
3 Thy Lord, I will resound
praises, To God the Father, God the Son,
To all the listening nations round; And God the Spirit, Three in One,
Thy mercy highest heaven transcends; Be honor, praise, and glory given,
Thy truth beyond the clouds extends. By all on earth, and all in heaven.

Attempt thy great Creator's praise To God their cheerful voices raise
But O, what tongue can speak his fame ? Glad homage pay with awful mirth.
What verse can reach the lofty theme ? And sing before him songs of praise
2 Enthroned amid the radiant spheres. 2 Convinced that he is God alone.
He glory like a garment wears; From whom both we and all proceed
To form a robe of light divine, We, whom he chooses for his own.
Ten thousand suns around him shine. The flock that he vouchsafes to feed.
3 In all our Maker's grand designs, 3 O enter, then, his temple gate.
Almighty power, with wisdom, shines; Thence to his courts devoutly press,
His works, thro' all this wondrous frame. And still your grateful hymns repeat.
Declare the glory of his name. And still his name with praises bless.
4 Raised on devotion's lofty wing, 4 For he's the Lord, supremely good;
Do thou, my soul, his glories sing His mercy is forever sure;
And let his praise employ thy tongue His truth, which always firmly stood,
Till listening worlds shall join the song. To endless ages shall endure.

To his feet thy tribute bring Fill our hearts with joy and peace;
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven, Let us each, thy love possessing.
Evermore his praises sing Triumph in redeeming grace
Hallelujah O, refresh us,
Praise the everlasting King. Traveling through this wilderness.

2 Praise him for his grace and favor 2 Thanks we give, and adoration,
To our fathers in distress For thy gospel's joyful sound
Praise him still the same as ever. May the fruits of thy salvation
Slow to chide, and swift to bless In our hearts and lives abound
Hallelujah ! May thy presence
Glorious in his faithfulness. With us evermore be found.
3 Father-like, he tends and spares us. 3 Then, whene'er the signal's given
Well our feeble frame he knows Us from earth to call away.
In his hands he gently bears us. Borne on angels' wings to heaven,
Rescues us from all our foes Glad the summons to obey,
Hallelujah May we ever
Praise Jehovah, God of grace. Reign with Christ in endless day.

1 Great God attend, while Zion sings The glorious hosts of heaven obey.
The joy that from thy presence springs Display thy grace, exert thy power,
To spend one day with thee on earth, Till all on earth thy name adore
Exceeds a thousand days of mirth.
26 WILLIAM COWPER. 1779.
2 Might I enjoy the meanest place 1 Jesus,where'er thy people meet,
Within thy house, O God of grace. There they behold thy mercy-seat
Not tents of ease, nor thrones of power, Where'er they seek thee thou art found,
Should tempt my feet to leave thy door. And every place is hallowed ground.
3 God is our sun, ^he makes our day; — 2 For thou, within no walls confined,
God is our shield, he guards our way — Inhabitest the humble mind
From all th' assaults of hell and sin, Such ever bring thee where they come,
From foes without and foes within. And going, take thee to their home.
4 All needful grace will God bestow, 3 Dear Shepherd of thy chosen few,
And crown that grace with glory too Thy former mercies here renew
He gives us all things, and withholds Here, to our waiting hearts, proclaim
No real good from upright souls. The sweetness of thy saving name.

Lord, our song ascends to thee; How sweet to hail the evening's close,
At thy feet we bow the knee. That ends the weary week
2 For the mercies of the day, 2 How sweet to hail the early dawn.
For this rest upon our way, That opens on the sight,
Thanks to thee alone be given, When that soul-reviving morn

Lord of earth, and King of heaven. Sheds forth new rays of light

Mingled every prayer with sin Yet while they gently roll.
But thou canst and wilt forgive Breathe, heavenly Spirit, source of peace,
By thy grace alone we live. A Sabbath o'er my soul.

To the rest which knows no end. That day which fades no more.

1 My soul, repeat his praise, 1 The pityof the Lord,


Whose mercies are so great, To thosethat fear his name.
Whose anger is so slow to rise, Is such as tender parents feel
So ready to abate. He knows our feeble frame.
2 God will not always chide 2 He knows we are but dust.
And when his strokes are felt, Scattered with every breath
His strokes are fewer than our crimes His anger, like a rising wind.
And lighter than our guilt. Can send us swift to death.
3 High as the heavens are raised 3 Our days are as the grass.
Above the ground we tread, Or like the morning flower
So far the riches of his grace When blasting winds sweep o'er the field.
Our highest thoughts exceed. It withers in an hour.
4 His power subdues our sins, 4 But thy compassions. Lord,
And his forgiving love. To endless years endure
Far as the east is from the west, And children's children ever find
Doth all our guilt remove. Thy words of promise sure.

1 God the refuge of his saints,


is 1 With all my powers of heart and tongue,
When storms of sharp distress invade I'll praise my Maker in my song

Ere we can offer our complaints, Angels shall hear the notes I raise,
Behold him present with his aid. Approve the song and join the praise.

2 Loud may the troubled ocean roar 2 To God I cried, when troubles rose;
In sacred peace our souls abide, He heard me, and subdued my foes;
While every nation, every shore, He did my rising fears control,
Trembles and dreads the swelhng tide. And strength diffused through all my soul.
3 There is a stream, whose gentle flow 3 Amid a thousand snares I stand,
Supplies the city of our God, Upheld and guarded by his hand
Life, love, and joy still gliding through, His words my fainting soul revive.
And watering our di\'ine abode. And keep my dying faith alive.
4 That sacred stream, thy holy word. 4 sing thy truth and mercy. Lord
I'll
Our grief allays, our fear controls sing the wonders of thy word
I'll
iSweet peace thy promises afford. Not all the works and names below
And give new strength to fainting souls. So much thy power and glory show.

1 Since all the varying scenes of time 4 His purposes will ripen fast,
God's watchful eye surveys, Unfolding every hour
who so wise to choose our lot. The bud may have a bitter taste,
Or to appoint our ways ? But sweet will be the flower.
2 Good, when he gives, supremely good 5 Blind unbelief is sure to err,
Nor less when he denies And scan his work in vain
E'en crosses, from his sovereign hand. God is his own interpreter,
Are blessings in disguise. And he will make it plain.
3 Why should we doubt a Father's love, 82 ISAAC WATTS. 1707.
So constant and so kind ?

1 God moves a mysterious way


in 2 Life, death, and hell, and worlds unknown,
His wonders to perform ;
Hang on his firm decree
He plants his footsteps in the sea. He sits on no precarious throne, .

And rides upon the storm. Nor borrows leave to be.

2 Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take; 3 His providence unfolds a book,


The clouds ye so much dread In which his counsels shine
Are big with mercy, and shall break Each opening leaf, and every stroke.
With blessing on your head. Fulfills some deep design.

3 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, 4 In thy book of life and grace,
fair

Behind a frowning providence Recorded in some humble place,
He hides a smiling face. Beneath my Lord, the Lamb.

1 It came upon the midnight clear, 3 O ye, beneath life's crushing load.
That glorious song of old, Whose forms are bending low,
From angels bending near the earth Who toil along the climbing way.
To touchtheir harps of gold With painful steps and slow,
''Peace to the earth, good-will to man, Look up ; for glad and golden hours
From heaven's all gracious King
:
Come swiftly on the wing
The earth in solemn stillness lay. O rest beside the weary road,
To hear the angels sing. And hear the angels sing.

2 through the cloven skies they come, 4 For, lo the days are hastening on
Still !

With peaceful wings unfurled By prophet bards foretold,


And still their heavenly music floats When with the ever-circling years
O'er all the weary world Comes round the age of gold;
Above its sad and lowly plains When peace shall over all the earth
They bend on hovering wing. Its ancient splendors fling,
And ever o'er its Babel sounds And the whole world give back the song
The blessed angels sing. Which now the angels sing.

1 When, a stranger on our sphere,
like 1 How beauteous were the marks divine,
The lowly Jesus wandered here, That in thy meekness used to shine
Where'er he went, affliction fled, That lit thy lonely pathway, trod
And sickness reared her fainting head. In wondrous love, O Son of God
2 The eye that rolled in irksome night, 2 O who like thee, so calm, so bright.
Beheld his face for God is light — So pure, so made to live in light
The opening ear, the loosened tongue, who go
like thee did ever
His precepts heard, his praises sung. So patient through a world of woe ?
8 With bounding steps the halt and lame. 3 O who like thee so humbly bore
To hail their great Deliverer came The scorn, the scoffs of men, before?
O'er the cold grave he bowed his head, So meek, forgiving, godlike, high,
He spake the word, and raised the dead. So glorious in humility ?
4 Through paths of loving kindness led. 4 O in thy light be mine to go,
Where Jesus triumphed we would tread Illuming all my way of woe
To all, with willing hands dispense And give me ever on the road
The gifts of our benevolence. To trace thy footsteps, Son of God.

And shout him welcome to the skies. By Jesus' last, expiring breath.
4 Break oflT your tears, ye saints, and tell 3 " 'Tis finished " Heaven is reconciled,

How high our great Deliverer reigns And all the powers of darkness spoiled
Sing how he spoiled the hosts of hell Peace, love, and happiness again
And led the tyrant Death in chains. Return, and dwell with sinful men.
5 Say, " Live forever, glorious King;
"
4 " 'Tis finished " let the joyful sound ! —
Born to redeem, and strong to save Be heard through all the nations round

Then ask, O Death, where is thy sting? " 'Tis finished " let the triumph rise, ! —
And where thy victory, boasting Grave?" And swell the chorus of the skies.

OLIVE'S BROW. L. M. W. B. BRADBURY. 1816-1868.

Poured out his cries and tears, Deep graven on his heart
And in his measure feels afresh Nor shall the meanest Christian say
What every member bears. That he hath lost his part.

Deep horror then my vitals froze

1 Now for a tune of lofty praise 1 Whatequal honors shall w^e bring
To great Jehovah's equal Son To thee, O Lord our God, the Lamb,
Awake, my voice, in heavenly lays, When all the notes that angels sing
And tell the wonders he hath done. Are far inferior to thy name ?
2 Sing how he left the worlds of hght, 2 Worthy is he that once was slain,
And those bright robes
he wore above : The Prince of Hfethat groaned and died,
How swift and joyful was his flight, Worthy to rise, and live and reign
On wings of everlasting love. At his almighty Father's side.
3 Deep in the shades of gloomy death, 3 Honor immortal must be paid,
Th' almighty Captive prisoner lay Instead of scandal and of scorn
Th' almighty Captive left the earth, While glory shines around his head.
And rose to everlasting day. He wears a crown without a thorn.
4 Among a thousand harps and songs, 4 Blessings forever on the Lamb,
Jesus, the God, exalted reigns Who bore the curse for wretched men
His sacred name fills all their tongues, Let angels sound his sacred name,
And echoes through the heavenly plains. And every creature say "Amen."

And sing thy great Redeemer's praise Of Moses and the Lamb
He justly claims a song from me Wake, every heart and every tongue,
His loving kindness, how free O To praise the Saviour's name.
2 Hesaw me ruined by the fall, 2 Sing of his dying love
Yet loved me, notwithstanding all; Sing of his rising power
He saved me from my lost estate Sing, how he intercedes above
His loving kindness, O how great For those whose sins he bore. -

3 I often feel my sinful heart 3 Sing on your heavenly way.


Prone from my Saviour to depart Ye ransomed sinners, sing;
But though I oft have him forgot, Sing on, rejoicing every day,
His loving kindness changes not. In Christ, th' eternal King.
4 Soon shall I pass the gloomy vale 4 Soon shall we hear him say,
Soon all my mortal powers must fail " Ye blessed children, come;"
O, may my last, expiring breath Soon will he call us hence away.
His loving kindness sing in death. To our eternal home.

1 O Jesus, King most wonderful, 1 My


Saviour, my almighty Friend,
Thou Conqueror renowned, When I begin thy praise.
Thou sweetness most ineffable. Where will the growing numbers end,
Inwhom all joys are found The numbers of thy grace ?
2 When once thou visitest the heart, 2 Thou art my everlasting trust;
Then truth begins to shine, Thy goodness I adore
Then earthly vanities depart. And since I knew thy graces first,
Then kindles love divine. I speak thy glories more.

3 O Jesus, Light of all below. 3 When I am filled with sore distress


Thou Fount of living fire, For some surprising sin,
Surpassing all the joys we know. I'll plead thy perfect righteousness.
And all we can desire. And mention none but thine.
4 Jesus, may all confess thy name, 4 How will my lips rejoice to tell
Thy wondrous love adore The victories of my King
And, seeking thee, themselves inflame My redeemed from sin and
soul, hell,
To seek thee more and more. Shall thy salvation sing.

The glories of my God and King, Without one cheerful beam of hope.
The triumphs of his grace. Or spark of glimmering day.
2 My gracious Master and my God, 2 With pitying eyes the Prince of grace
Assist me to proclaim. Beheld our helpless grief
To spread through all the earth abroad He saw, and, 0, amazing love!—
The honors of thy name. He flew to our relief.
3 Jesus, the name
that calms my fears, 3 Downfrom the shining seats above,
That bids my
sorrow cease With joyful
haste he fled,
'Tis music in the sinner's ears Entered the grave in mortal flesh.
'Tis life and health and peace. And dwelt among the dead.
4 He breaks the power of reigning sin, 4 O for this love, let rocks and rills

He sets the prisoner free Their lasting silence break.


His blood can make the foulest clean And all harmonious human tongues
His blood availed for me. The Saviour's praises speak.

1 How sweet the name a name I love to hear,


of Jesiis sounds 1 There is
In a believer's ear I love to sing its worth
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds, It sounds like music in mine ear,
And drives away his fear. The sweetest name on earth.

2 It makes the wounded spirit whole, 2 It tells me of a Saviour's love,


And calms the troubled breast; Who died to set me free
'Tis manna to the hungry soul. It tells me of his precious blood,
And to the weary rest. The sinner's perfect plea.

3 Weak is the effort of my heart, 3 Jesus, the name I love so well,


And cold my warmest thought; The name I love to hear
But when I see thee as thou art, No saint on earth its worth can tell,
I'll praise thee as I ought. No heart conceive how dear.
4 Till then, I would thy love proclaim 4 This name shall shed its fragrance still
With every fleeting breath Along this thorny road
And may the music of thy name Shall sweetly smooth the rugged hill
Refresh my soul in death. That leads me up to God.

In rapturous song make him known, For you he was mighty to save,
O tune your soft harps to his praise Almighty to bring you safe there.
He formed you the spirits you are. 3 O when

And cast your bright crowns at his feet. To sorrow and sin bid adieu.

206 JOSEPH HART. I7S9-

1 Come, Holy Spirit, come And kindle in our breasts the flame
Let thy bright beams arise Of never-dying love.
Dispel the sorrow from our minds. 4 'Tis thine to cleanse the heart,
The darkness from our eyes. To sanctify the soul.
2 Convince us all of sin To pour fresh in every part,
life
Then lead to Jesus' blood, And new-create the whole.
And to our wondering view reveal 5 Dwell, Spirit, in our hearts;
The mercies of our God. Our minds from bondage free
3 Revive our drooping faith, Then shall we know and praise and love
Our doubts and fears remove, The Father, Son, and thee.

Eternal truth did loud proclaim, A point of time, a moment's space,
The sinner must be born again, Removes me to yon heavenly place,
Or sink in endless woe." Or shuts me up in hell.
2 Amazed I stood, but could not tell 2 O God, mine inmost soul convert,
Which way to shun the gates of hell. And deeply on my thoughtful heart
For death and hell drew near Eternal things impress;
I strove, indeed, but strove in vain Give me to feel their solemn weight
'
The sinner must be born again"
' And tremble on the brink of fate,
Still sounded in my ear. And wake to righteousness.
3 When to the law I trembling fled, 3 Before me place, in dread array.
It poured its curses on my head The pomp of that tremendous day
no relief could find
I : Whenthou with clouds shalt come
This fearful truth increased my pain To judge the nations at thy bar
The sinner must be born again " And tell me, Lord, shall I be there
O'er whelmed my tortured mind. To meet a joyful doom ?
4 But while I thus in anguish lay, 4 Then, Saviour, then my soul receive,
Jesus of Nazareth passed that way. Transported from this vale, to live
And felt his pity move And reign with thee above.
The sinner, by his justice slain, Where faith is sweetly lost in sight,
Now by his grace is born again. And hope in full, supreme delight, •

And sings redeeming love. And everlasting love.

And vainly strive with earthly toys A sovereign balm for every wound,
To fill an empty mind, A cordial for our fears.

A soul-reviving feast. At hell's dark door we lay
And bids your longing appetites But we arise, by grace divine,
The rich provision taste. To see a heavenly day.

Here you may quench your raging thirst While all the armies of the sky
With springs that never dry. Conspire to raise the sound.

Could give the guilty conscience peace, While like a penitent I stand,
Or wash away the stain. And there confess my sin.

Takes all our sins away, The burden thou didst bear.
A sacrifice of nobler name, When hanging on the cursed tree,
And richer blood than they. And hopes her guilt was there,

And thousands walk together there That life which God's compassion spares
But wisdom shows a narrow path, While, in the various range of thought.
With here and there a traveler. The one thing needful is forgot?
2 *'Deny thyself and take thy cross," 2 Shall God invite you from above ?
Is the Redeemer's great command Shall J esus urge his dying love ?
Nature must count her gold but dross, Shall troubled conscience give you pain.
If she would gain this heavenly land. And all these pleas unite in vain ?
3 The fearful soul that tires and faints. 3 Not so your eyes will always view
And walks the ways of God no more. Those objects which you now pursue
Is but esteemed almost a saint, Not so will heaven and hell appear.
And makes his own destruction sure. When death's decisive hour is near.
4 Lord, let not all my hopes be vain, 4 Almighty God, thy grace impart;
Create my
heart entirely new, Fix deep conviction on each heart;
Which hypocrites could ne'er attain. Nor let us waste on trifling cares
Which false apostates never knew. That life which thy compassion spares.

When draws near the judgment-day. God, your Saviour, asks you why.
When the awful trump shall sound. Will ye not in him believe ?
Say, O where wilt thou be found ? He has died that ye might live.
3 When the Judge descends in light. 3 Will you let him die in vain ?
Clothed in majesty and might. Crucify your Lord again ?
When the wicked quail with fear, Why, ye ransomed sinners, why
Where, O where wilt thou appear? Will you slight his grace, and die?
4 What shall soothe thy bursting heart, 4 Sinners, turn; why will ye die?
When the saints and thou must part ? God, the Spirit, asks you why.
When the good with joy are crowned. Often with you has he strove.
Sinner, where wilt thou be found ? Wooed you to embrace his love.

5 While the Holy Ghost is nigh. 5 Will ye not his grace receive?
Quickly to the Saviour fly Will ye still refuse to live?
Then shall peace thy spirit cheer O ye dying sinners, why.
Then in heaven shalt thou appear. Why will you forever die ?

1 Show pity. Lord ; O Lord, forgive 1 Return, my wandering soul, return,


Let a repenting rebel live And seek an injured Father's face
Are not thy mercies large and free? Those warm desires that in thee burn
May not a sinner trust in thee ? Were kindled by redeeming grace.
2 My crimes, though great, can not surpass 2 Return, my wandering soul, return,
The power and glory of thy grace And seek a Father's melting heart
Great God, thy nature hath no bound; His pitying eyes thy grief discern,
So let thy pardoning love be found. His heavenly balm shall heal thy smart.
3 O wash my soul from every sin. 3 Return, my wandering
soul, return.
And make my guilty conscience clean Thy dying Saviour
bids thee live
Here, on my heart, the burden lies, Go, view his bleeding side, and learn
And past offenses pain mine eyes. How
freely Jesus can forgive.

4 Yet save a trembling sinner, Lord, 4 Return, my wandering soul, return,


Whose hope, still hovering round thy word, And wipe away the falling tear
;"
Would light on some sweet promise there. 'Tis God who says, No longer mourn
Some sure support against despair. 'Tis mercy's voice invites thee near.

The bleeding sacrifice He can not turn away
In my behalf appears The presence of his Son
Before the throne my Surety stands, His Spirit answers to the blood,
My name is written on his hands. And tells me I am born of God.

Received on Calvary His pardoning voice I hear
They pour effectual prayers. He owns me for his child
They strongly plead for me : I can no longer fear

Is by our beds of pain And bathed their couch with tears
We touch him in life's throng and press. They wrestled hard, as we do now,
And we are whole again. With sins and doubts and fears.
3 Through him the first fond prayers are said 3 I ask them whence their victory came;
Our lips of childhood frame They, with united breath.
The last low whispers of our dead Ascribe their conquest to the Lamb,
Are burdened with his name. Their triumph to his death.

Whate'er our name or sign, His zeal inspired their breast
We own thy sway, we hear thy call, And, following their incarnate God,
We test our lives by thine Possessed the promised rest.

Thou Fount of life, thou Light of men, What need I that is not in thee ?
From the best bliss that earth imparts. Full pardon, strength to meet the day,
We turn unfilled to thee again. And peace which none can take away.
2 We taste thee, O thou living bread! 2 Doth sickness fill the heart with fear ?
And long to feast upon thee still 'Tis sweet to know that thou art near.
We drink of thee, the fountain-head. Am I with dread of justice tried?
And thirst our souls from thee to fill. 'Tis sweet to feel that Christ hath died.

3 Our restless spirits yearn for thee, 3 In life, thy promises of aid
Where'er our changeful lot is cast Forbid my heart to be afraid
Glad when thy gracious smile we see, In death, peace gently vails the eyes;
Blest when our faith can hold thee fast. Christ rose, and I shall surely rise.

4 O Jesus, ever with us stay 4 O all-sufiicient Saviour! be


Make all our moments calm and bright This all-sufiiciency to me

1 If God mine, then present things,
is 1How happy every child of grace,
And things to come, are mine Who knows his sins forgiven
Yea, Christ, his word and Spirit too, "This earth," he cries, is not my place,
And glory all divine. I seek my home in heaven.

2 If he is mine, then from his love, 2 "A


country far from mortal sight
He every trouble sends ;
Yet, O, by faith, I see
All things are working for my good, The land of rest, the saints' delight,
And bliss his rod attends. The heaven prepared for me."
3 If he is mine, let friends forsake, 3 0, what a blessed hope is ours,
Let wealth and honor flee: While here on earth we stay
Sure he who giveth me himself, We more than taste the heavenly powers.
Is more than these to me. And antedate that day.
4 O, tell me. Lord! that thou art mine 4 We feel the resurrection near.
What can I wish beside ? Our life in Christ concealed,
My soul shall at the fountain live, And with his glorious presence here
When all the streams are dried. Our earthen vessels filled.

1My God, the spring of all my joys, 3 Ah, grace! into unlikeliest hearts
The life of my delights, thy boast to come,
It is
The glory of my brightest days, The glory of thy light to find
And comfort of my nights! In darkest spots a home.
2 In darkest shades, if he appear. 4 The crowd of cares, the weightiest cross
My dawning is begun Seem trifles less than light
He is my soul's bright morning star. Earth looks so little and so low
And he my rising When faith shines full and
sun. bright.
3 The opening heavens around me shine 5 O happy, happy that I am !

With beams of sacred bliss, If thou canst be, O faith.


While Jesus shows his love is mine, The treasure that thou art in life,
And whispers, I am his. What wilt thou be in death?

1 Jesus,the very thought of thee, 1 Thou art my portion, O my God;


With sweetness fills my breast Soon as I know thy way.
But sweeter far thy face to see. My heart makes haste t' obey thy word.
And in thy presence rest. And sufiers no delay.
2 Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame, 2 I choose the path of heavenly truth,
Nor can the memory find And glory in my choice
A sweeter sound than Jesus' name, Not all the riches of the earth
O Saviour of mankind Could make me so rejoice.

3 O Hope of every contrite heart 3 Thy


precepts and thy heavenly grace
O Joy of all the meek I set before my eyes
To those who fall, how kind thou art Thence I derive my daily strength,
How good, to those who seek And there my comfort lies.
4 But what to those who find? Ah ! this. 4 NoAV I am thine, forever thine
Nor tongue nor pen can show; O
save thy servant. Lord
The love of Jesus, what it is. Thou art my shield, my hiding-place;
None but his loved ones know. My hope is in thy word.

1 I was a wandering sheep, 3 Jesus my Shepherd is;


I did not love the fold 'Twas he that loved my soul,
I did not love my
Shepherd's voice, 'Twas he that washed me in his blood,
I would not be controlled 'Twas he that made me whole
I was a wayward child, 'Twas he that sought the lost,
I did not love my home That found the wandering sheep;
1 did not love my Father's voice, 'Twas he that brought me to the fold,
I loved afar to roam. 'Tis he that still doth keep.

2 The Shepherd sought his sheep. 4 No more a wandering sheep,


The Father sought his child I love to be controlled
He followed me o'er vale and hill. I love my tender Shepherd's voice,
O'er deserts waste and wild : I love the peaceful fold :

He found me nigh to death, No more a wayward child,


Famished and faint and lone I seek no more to roam
He bound me with the bands of love. I love my heavenly Father's voice,
He saved the wandering one. I love, I love his home

Break every tender tie, Pass from my heart away

Earth has no resting place,
Jesus is mine
Jesus alone can bless,
Lost in this dawning bright,

J esus is mine Left but a dismal void;
Here would I ever stay, Jesus has satisfied
Jesus is mine. Jesus is mine.

More than our thoughts and wishes know. I shall be near and like my God

1 My God, permit me not to be 1 Jesus, thy boundless love to me


A stranger to myself and thee No thought can reach, no tongue declare
Amidst a thousand thoughts I rove, Unite my thankful heart to thee,
my highest love.
Forgetful of And reign without a rival there.
2 Why should my passions mix with earth, 2 Thylove, how cheering is its ray
And thus debase my heavenly birth ? All pain before its presence flies
Why should I cleave to things below, Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away.
And let my God, my Saviour, go? Where'er its healing beams arise.
3 Call me away from flesh and sense 3 O let thy love my soul inflame, ,

One sovereign word can draw me thence And to thy service sweetly bind
I would obey the voice divine. Transfuse it through my inmost frame,
And all inferior joys resign. And mold me wholly to thy mind.
4 Be earth, with all her scenes, withdrawn ; 4 Thy love, in suflerings, be my peace
Let noise and vanity be gone; Thy love, in weakness, make me strong
In secret silence of the mind And, when the storms of life shall cease,
My heaven, and there my God, I find. Thy love shall be in heaven my song.

And our confessions pour, Unuttered or expressed,
O may we feel the sins we own The motion of a hidden fire,
And hate what we deplore. That trembles in the breast.
2 Our contrite spirits, pitying, see; 2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh,
True penitence impart The falling of a tear.
And let a healing ray from thee The upward glancing of an eye,
Beam hope on every heart. When none but God is near.

3 When we disclose our wants in prayer, 3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech
O let our wills resign, That infant lips can try;
And not a thought our bosom share Prayer, the sublimest strains that reach
Which is not wholly thine. The Majesty on high.
4 Let faith each meek petition fill, 4 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath,
And waft it to the skies. The Christian's native air.
And teach our hearts 'tis goodness, still His watchword at the gates of death
That grants it, or denies. He enters heaven with prayer.

1 From every stormy wind that blows, 1 Whatvarious hindrances we meet


From every swelling tide of woes, In coming to a mercy-seat;
There is a calm, a sure retreat— Yet who that knows the worth of prayer
'Tis found beneath the mercy-seat. But wishes to be often there ?
2 There is a place where Jesus sheds 2 Prayer makes the darkened clouds withdraw
The oil of gladness on our heads, Prayer climbs the ladder Jacob saw
A place of all on earth most sweet Gives exercise to faith and love
It is the blood-bought mercy-seat. Brings every blessing from above.
3 There is a scene where spirits blend. 3 Restraining prayer, we cease to fight
Where friend holds fellowship with friend
Prayer makes the Christian's armor bright
Though sundered far, by faith they meet And Satan trembles when he sees
Around one common mercy-seat. The weakest saint upon his knees.
4 There, there on eagle wings we soar. 4 Were half the breath oft vainly spent,
And sin and sense molest no more, To heaven in supplication sent.
And heaven comes down our souls to greet, Our cheerful song would oftener be.
And glory crowns the mercy-seat. Hear what the Lord has done for me."

Invites us all our grief to tell, Yes, though he may awhile forbear,
To pray and never faint. He'll help them from on high.

2 He bows his gracious ear 4 Then let us earnest cry,


Wenever plead in vain And never faint in prayer
Then let us wait till he appear, He sees, he hears, and from on high
And pray, and pray again. AVill make our cause his care.

1 There is no sorrow. Lord, too light 3 There is no secret sigh we breathe


To bring in prayer to thee But meets thine ear divine
There no anxious care too
is slight And every cross grows light beneath
To wake thy sympathy. The shadow, Lord, of thine.
2 Thou who hast trod the thorny road 4 Life's ills without, sin's strife within,
Wilt share each small distress The heart would overflow.
The love which bore the greater load But for that love which died for sin,
Will not refuse the less. That love which wept with woe.

1 Saviour, when, in dust, to thee, By thy victory in the hour
Low we bend th'adoring knee Of thesubtle tempter's power;
When, repentant, to the skies. Jesus, look with pitying eye
Scarce we
lift our streaming eyes Hear thy people while they cry.
O by all thy pains and woe 3 By thine hour of dark despair,
Suffered once for man below.
By thine agony of prayer,
Bending from thy throne on high, By thy purple robe of scorn.
Hear thy people when they cry.
By thy wounds — thy crown of thorn,
2 By thy birth and early years. By thy cross — thy pangs and cries
By thy human griefs and fears. By thy perfect sacrifice
By thy fasting and distress Jesus, look with pitying eye
In the lonely wilderness : Hear thy people while they cry.

2 Hell and thy sins resistthy course 2 True, 'tis a strait and thorny road,
But hell and sin are vanquished foes And mortal spirits tire and faint;
Thy Saviour nailed them to the cross, But they forget the mighty God
And sung the triumph when he rose. Who feeds the strength of every saint.
3 Then let my soul march boldly on, 3 From thee, the overflowing spring.
Press forward to the heavenly gate Our souls shall drink a full supply
There peace and joy eternal reign, While those who trust their native strength
And glittering robes for conquerors wait. Shall melt away and droop and die.

4 There shall I wear a starry crown, 4 Swift as an eagle cuts the air,
And triumph in almighty grace, We'll mount aloft to thine abode
While all the armies of the skies On wings of love our souls shall fly,
Join in my glorious Leader's praise. Nor tire amid the heavenly road.

What can it help, if thou bewail thee, And trust his word, though undeserving,

The heavier for our bitterness. The soul that trusted him indeed.

1 O what, we
are Christ's
if 2 I dare not choose my lot
Is earthly shame or loss ? I would not if I might
Bright shall the crown of glory be, But choose thou for me, O my God,
When we have borne the cross. So shall I walk aright.

2 Keen was the trial once, 3 Take thou my cup, and it


Bitter the cup of woe. With joy or sorrow fill
When martyred saints, baptized in blood, As ever best to thee may seem.
Christ's sufferings shared below. Choose thou my good and ill.

3 Bright is their glory now, 4 Not mine, not mine the choice,
Boundless their joy above. In things or great or small
Where, on the bosom of their God, Be thou my guide, my guard, my strength,
They rest in perfect love. My wisdom, and my all.

4 Lord, may that grace be ours, 432 A. M. TOPLADV. 1772.


Like them in faith to bear 1 If,on a quiet sea.
All that of sorrow, grief, or pain Toward heaven we calmly sail.
May be our portion here. With grateful hearts, O God, to thee.
5 Enough, if thou at last We'll own the favoring gale.
The word of blessing give, 2 But should the surges rise.
And let us rest beneath thy feet. And rest delay to come.
Where saints and angels live. Blest be the sorrow, kind the storm,
Which drives us nearer home.

For awful is his name. To do my Master's will

8 Watch! 'tis your Lord's command; 3 Arm me with jealous care.
And while we speak he's near : As in thy sight to live
Mark every signal of his hand, And O, thy servant. Lord, prepare
And ready all appear. A strict account to give.
4 O happy servant he. 4 Help me to watch and pray,
In such a posture found And on thyself rely.
He shall his Lord with rapture see. Assured, if I my trust betray,
And be with honor crowned. I shall forever die.

Faith is our guide, and faith our light. Upheld by all-sufiicient grace.
2 The want of sight she well supplies 2 I can do all things, or can bear
She makes the pearly gates appear All sufferings,if my Lord be there
Far into distant worlds she pries. Sweet pleasures mingle with the pains,
And brings eternal glories near. While he my sinking head sustains.
3 With joy we tread the desert through, 3 I glory in infirmity.
While faith inspires a heavenly ray. That Christ's own power may rest on me
Though lions roar and tempests blow. When I am weak then am I strong,
And rocks and dapger-s fill the way. Grace is my shield, and Christ my song.

May take, dear Lord, the place of thine
And mercy, like a mighty stream, Thy blood has pardon bought for me.
O'er all tlieir sins divinely rolls. And I am now complete in thee.
2 Who shall adjudge the saints to hell ? 2 Complete in thee, no more shall sin, —
'Tis Christ who suffered in their stead ;
Thy grace has conquered, reign within
And, their salvation to fulfill, Thy voice will bid the temj3ter flee,
Behold him rising from the dead ! And I shall stand complete in thee.
3 He lives he lives and sits above,

Forever interceding there ;
And no good thing to me denied,
Who shall divide us from his love, Since thou my portion. Lord, wilt be,
Or what shall tempt us to despair ? I ask no more, —
complete in thee.

that men on 4 Dear Saviour, when, before thy bar,
Nor powers on high, nor powers below, All tribes and tongues assembled are,

1 Lord Jesus, are we one with thee? 1 Dear Refuge of my weary soul,
O height O depth ! of love On thee, when sorrows rise.
With thee we died upon the tree, On thee when waves of trouble roll.
In thee we live above. My fainting hope relies.

2 Such was thy grace, that for our sake 2 To thee I tell each rising grief.
Thou didst from heaven come down, For thou alone canst heal
Our mortal flesh and blood partake. Thy word can bring a sweet relief
In all our misery one. For every pain I feel.
3 Oursins, our guilt, in love divine, 3 But O, when gloomy doubts prevail,
Confessed and borne by thee I fear to call thee mine
The gall, the curse, the wrath, were thine. The springs of comfort seem to fail.
To set thy members free. And all my
hopes decline.
4 Ascended now, in glory bright, 4 Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee?
Still one with us thou art Thou art my only trust
Nor life, nor death, nor depth, nor height, And still my soul would cleave to thee,
Thy saints and thee can part. Though prostrate in the dust.

That leans, O Lord, on thee! My soul can ne'er be lost.

2 Jesus, my God, I know his name; 2 Should earth against my soul engage,
His name is all my trust And fiery darts be hurled,
Nor will he put my soul to shame. Then I can smile at Satan's rage,
Nor let my soul be lost. And face a frowning world.
3 Firmas his throne his promise stands. 3 Let cares, like a wild deluge, come,

What I've committed to his hands May I but safely reach my home.
Till the decisive Hour. My God, my heaven, my all.

Thou kindly hidest from our gaze " Lo! I am with you all the days."
Bat tellest us, in joy or sorrow,
" Lo ! I am with you all the days." 3 O thou who art our life and meet-

That all the earth is now the Lord's. The King's fairdaughter clothed in gold.

Obedient, mighty God, to thee Bright with the beams of truth divine
And over land and stream and main, Then shall thy radiance stream afar.
Now wave the scepter of thy reign, Wide as the heathen nations are.

let 3 Gentiles and kings thy light shall view,
Let host to host the triumph tell, And

Till not one rebel heart remains. They come, like clouds across the sky,
But over all the Saviour reigns. As doves that to their windows fly.

537 JAMES G. DECK. 1845,

1 Around thy grave, Lord Jesus, 3 Lord, now thou art arisen.
Thine empty grave we stand. Thy travail is all o'er.
With hearts all full of praises, For sin thou once hast suffered,
To keep thy blest command Thou livest to die no more
By faith our souls rejoicing. Sin, death, and hell are vanquished,
To trace thy path of love. By thee, thy church's Head ;

Through death's dark angry billows. And lo we share thy triumphs,


!

Up to the throne above. Thou first-born from the dead.


2 Lord Jesus, we remember 4 Into thy death baptized.
The travail of thy soul. Weown with thee we died;
When, in thy love's deep pity, With thee, our life, are risen.
The waves did o'er thee roll And in
thee glorified
Baptized in death's cold waters. From sin,
the world, and Satan,
For us thy blood was shed We're ransomed by thy blood,
For us the Lord of glory And now would walk as strangers
Was numbered with the dead. Alive with thee to God.

To feed upon this bread and wine, Here pardoned rebels sit, and hold

In symbol here we see, Maintain our fainting breath,
And feel the blessed pledge within By union with our living Lord,
That we are loved by thee. And interest in his death.
3 O, if this glimpse of love 3 Let all our powers be joined
Be so divinely sweet. His glorious name to raise
What will it be, O Lord, above. Let holy love fill every mind,

Borders on the shades of death! To the ransomed, helpless race;
Rise on us, thy love reveaHng, Come, thou glorious God and Saviour!
Dissipate the clouds beneath Come, and bring the gospel grace.

Thou, of heaven and earth Creator,


In our deepest darkness rise, 3 Save us, in thy great compassion,
Scattering all the night of nature, O thou mild, pacific Prince!
Pouring day upon our eyes. Give the knowledge of salvation,
Give the pardon of our sins :

2 Still we wait for thine appearing; By thine all-sufficient merit,


Life and joy thy beams impart. Every burdened soul release
Chasing all our fears, and cheering Every weary, wandering spirit,
Every poor, benighted heart Guide into thy perfect peace.

What anthems loud, and louder still, Still, Israel's children forward press

So sweetly sound from Zion's hill? Ref. To hail the Lord their Rigliteousness.-REF.
2 Lo ! 'tis an infant chorus sings 4 Proclaim hosannas loud and clear
Hosanna to the King of kings See David's Son and Lord appear :

With all-engaging charms The paths of peace have trod.
Hark! how he calls the tender lambs, Whose secret heart with influence sweet,
And folds them in his arms. Is upward drawn to God.

*'Nor scorn their humble name;
The lily must decay
For 'twas to bless such souls as these
The rose that blooms beneath the hill
The Lord of angels came."
Must shortly fade away.
3 We bring them, Lord, by fervent prayer,
And them up to thee
yield 4 And soon, too soon, the wintry hour
With humble trust that we are thine, Of man's maturer age
Thine let our offspring be. Will shake the soul with sorrow's power,
And stormy passions rage.

1 When, his salvation bringing, 1 We bring no glittering treasures.


To Zion Jesus came, No gems from earth's deep mine
The children all stood singing, We come with simple measures.
Hosannas to his name To chant thy love divine.
Nor did their zeal offend him, Children, thy favors sharing,
But, as he rode along. Their voice of thanks would raise
He let them still attend him. Father, accept our offering.
And smiled to hear their song. Our song of grateful praise.
2 And since the Lord retaineth 2 The
dearest gift of Heaven,
His love for children still. Love's written word of truth,
Though now as King he reigneth To us is early given.
OnZion's heavenly hill, To guide our steps in youth
We'll flock around his banner, We hear the wondrous story,
Who sits upon his throne, The tale of Calvary
And cry aloud, Hosanna We read of homes in glory.
To David's royal Son." From sin and sorrow free.
3 For should we fail proclaiming 3 Redeemer, grant thy blessing!
Our great Redeemer's praise, O teach us how to pray.
The stones our silence shaming. That each, thy fear possessing.
Would their hosannas raise. May tread life's onward way
But shall we only render Then, where the pure are dwelling.
The tribute of our words ? We hope to meet again.
No ; while our hearts are tender, And, sweeter numbers swelling.
They too shall be the Lord's. Forever praise thy name.

593 SIDNEY DYER. 1859.

1 Gopreach the blest salvation Go where the west is teeming,


To every sinful race, And yet behold they come
And bid each guilty nation The richest fields are gleaming
Accept the Saviour's grace For those who reap at home
But bear, O quickly bear it, Our
3 children there are dwelling,
Where thronging millions roam, Neglected and astray,
And bid them freely share it, Whose hearts are often swelling
Who dwell with us at home. To learn of Zion's way.
2 Where blooms the broad savanna, Bear, bear to them the treasure,
Where mighty waters roll, And bid the exiles come
There let the gospel banner There is no sweeter pleasure
Beam hope on every soul Than preaching Christ at home.

With holy zeal your hearts inspire And be thou known th' almighty God;
Bid raging winds their fury cease. Make bare thy arm, thy power display,
And calm the savage breast to peace. While truth and grace thy scepter sway.

Meet with the blood-bought throng to fall. Let thy salvation, Lord, be known.

1 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun 1 Look from thy sphere of endless day,
Does his successive journeys run O God of mercy and of might!
;

His kingdom stretch from shore to shore In pity look on those who stray,
Till moons shall wax and wane no more. Benighted in this land of light.
2 For him shall endless prayer be made, 2 In peopled vale, in lonely glen.
And endless praises crown his head In crowded mart, by stream or sea,
His name, like sweet perfume shall rise How many of the sons of men
With every morning sacrifice. Hear not the message sent from thee 1

3 People and realms of every tongue 3 Send forth thy heralds. Lord, to call
Dwell on his love with sweetest song; The thoughtless young, the hardened old,
And infant voices shall proclaim A scattered, homeless flock, till all
Their early blessings on his name. Be gathered to thy peaceful fold.
4 Let every creature rise and bring 4 Then all these wastes, a dreary scene.
Peculiar honors to our King That makes us sadden as we gaze,
Angels descend with songs again. Shall grow with living waters green,
And earth repeat the loud Amen. And lift to heaven the voice of praise.

Exalt thy fallen head
And let our treasures still be spent, Again in thy Redeemer trust;
Like his, upon the poor. He calls thee from the dead.
2 Like him, through scenes of deep distress. 2 Awake, awake ;
put on thy strength,
Who bore the world's sad weight. Thy beautiful array;
We, in their gloomy loneliness, The day of freedom dawns at length,
Would seek the desolate. The Lord's appointed day.
3 For thou hast placed us side by side 3 Rebuild thy walls, thy bounds enlarge,
In this wide world of ill ;
And send thy heralds forth
And that thy followers may be tried. Say to the south, " Give up thy charge !"

The poor are with us still. And " Keep not back, O north

Yet thou hast taught us, Lord, Where'er they rest or roam.
If given for the Saviour's sake, Have heard thy voice in distant lands,
They lose not their reward. And hasten to their home.

1 How blest the righteous when he dies 1 Why should we start and fear to die?
When sinks a weary soul to rest, What timorous worms we mortals are
How mildly beam the closing eyes Death is the gate of endless joy,
How gently heaves th' expiring breast And yet we dread to enter there.
2 So fades a summer cloud away 2 The pains, the groans, and dying strife
So sinks the gale when storms are o'er Fright our approaching souls away
So gently shuts the eye of day Still we shrink back again to life.
So dies a wave along the shore. Fond of our prison and our clay.
3 A holy quiet reigns around, 3 O if my Lord would come and meet.
A calm which life nor death destroys My soul should stretch her wings in haste,
And naught disturbs that peace profound Fly fearless through death's iron gate,
Which his unfettered soul enjoys. Nor feel the terrors as she passed.

4 Life's labor done, as sinks the clay, 4 Jesus can make a dying bed
Light from its load the spirit flies, Feel soft as downy pillows are,
While heaven and earth combine to say, While on his breast I lean my head.
"How blest the righteous when he dies !" And breathe my life out sw^eetly there.

I How vain is all beneath the skies 2 But though earth's fairest blossoms die,
I

How transient every earthly bliss And all beneath the skies is vain,
How slender all the fondest ties There is a land whose confines lie
That bind us to a world like this Beyond the reach of care and pain.

The evening cloud, the morning dew, Then let the hope of joys to come
The withering grass, the fading flower, Dispel our cares and chase our fears
Of earthly hopes are emblems true, If God be ours, we're traveling home,
The glory of a passing hour. Though passing through a vale of tears.

So peacefully he sinks to rest. Whom God's own Spirit deigns to bless?

We're traveling to the grave. Its peril every hour.

For very love, beholding His laud and benediction
Thy happy name, they weep; Thy ransomed people raise.

The life that knows no ending. And they that know and see him
The tearless life, is there. Shall have him for their own.

Sweet land of liberty, And ring from all the trees
Of thee I sing Sweet freedom's song:
Land where my fathers died I Let mortal tongues awake
Land of the Pilgrims' pride Let all that breathe partake
From every mountain side Let rocks their silence break,-
Let freedom ring! The sound prolong.
2 My native country, thee, 4 Our fathers' God, to thee.
Land of the noble free. Author of liberty.
Thy name I love To thee we sing
I love thy rocks and rills, Long may our land be bright
Thy woods and templed hills; With freedom's holy light;
My heart with rapture thrills. Protect us by thy might.
Like that above. Great God, our King.

By which supported still we stand Whose love forever is the same
The opening year thy mercy shows The tokens of whose gracious care
Let mercy crown it till it close. Begin and crown and close the year.
2 By day, by night, at home, abroad, 2 Amid ten thousand snares we stand,
Still we are guarded by our God Supported by thy guardian hand
By his incessant bounty fed, And see, when we review our ways,
By his unerring counsel led. Ten thousand monuments of praise.
3 With grateful hearts the past we own 3 Thus far thine arm has led us on

The future, all to us unknown, Thus far we make thy mercy known
We to thy guardian care commit, And while we tread this desert land,
And peaceful leave before thy feet. New mercies shall new songs demand.

4 In scenes exalted or depressed. 4 Our grateful souls on Jordan's shore


Be thou our joy and thou our rest Shall raise one sacred pillar more.
Thy goodness all our hopes shall raise. Then bear, in thy bright courts above.

But we would leave without a fear Now let us all thy presence feel.

For what the world holds fair May mercy set us free
And all the good we thought to gain, And let the year we now begin,
Deceive and prove but care. Begin and end with thee.

And snatch away the valued friend, And sinners now may learn to love,
The tried of many years. Who never loved before.
4 But calmly, Lord, on thee we rest 4 And when before thee we appear.
No fears our trust shall move In our eternal home,
Thou knowest what for each is best, May growing numbers worship here,
And thou art perfect Love. And praise thee in our room.

And then we turn away " yet still thy kindness for " gives our blindnesSo | | || |

4 Who can resist thy gentle call, appealing to every generous thought " and |

grateful
feeling? | ||

O, who can hear the ac " cents of thy mercy, and " never love thee? |

5 Kind Benefactor, plant within this bosom " the seeds of holiness and let | | ||

them blossom
In fragrance, and in beau " ty bright and vernal, and " spring e- ternal. | |

The church has waited long 650 To our Redeemer's glorious name 169
The church's one foundation 517 To thy temple I repair 34
The day is gently sinking to a close 60 Trembling before thine awful throne 341
The day is past and gone - 65 Triumphant Zion, lift thy head 512
The day of resurrection 649
The day of wrath, that dreadful day 664
Thee we adore, eternal name 627 Unshaken as the sacred hill 488
Thee will I love, my strength, my tower.. 331 Unveil thy bosom, faithful tomb..... 640

Uplift the banner, let it float 600 When, streaming from the eastern skies... 53
Upward I lift mine eyes 97 When the mourner weeping 436
Upward, where the stars are burning 681 When the worn spirit wants repose..,.. 48
When through the torn sail the wild 121
Watchman, tell us of the night 659 When thy mortal life is fled 263
Weary of earth and laden with my sin 321 When thou, my righteous Judge 662
We bid thee welcome in the name 558 When wounded sore, the stricken soul 228
We bring no glittering treasures 581 Where the mourner weeping 436
We could not do without thee 320 While in this sacred rite of thine 530
Weeping soul, no longer mourn 239 While life prolongs its precious light 251
We give immortal praise 214 While my Redeemer's near 314
We give thee but thine own 451 While thee I seek, protecting Power , 13
Welcome, morn
delightful 37 While with ceaseless course the sun 702
Welcome, happy morning 133 Whither, O whither should I fly 478
Welcome, sweet day of rest 46 With all my powers of heart and tongue.. 79
Welcome, thou victor in the strife 136 With broken heart and contrite sigh 286
We may not climb the heavenly steeps 327 With joy we hail the sacred day 31
We plow the fields and scatter 689 With joy we meditate the grace 147
We praise thee, O God, for the Son of thy 215 With one consent let all the earth 8
We shall meet beyond the river 679 With tearful eyes I look around 258, 724
We speak of the realms of the blest 686 With willing hearts we tread 536
What a friend we have in Jesus 406 Who are these in bright array 676
What are these soul-reviving strains 568 Who shall the Lord's elect condemn 483
What equal honors shall we bring 156 Why do we mourn departed friends 642
What grace, O Lord, and beauty shone 114 Why should we start and fear to die 620
What shall I render to my God 29 Why should the children of a King 199
What sinners value I resign..... 370 Why will ye waste on trifling cares 250
What things shall happen on the 507 Work, for the night is coming 476
What various hindrances we meet 398
When all thy mercies, O my God 89
Ye angels who stand round the throne 187
When as returns this solemn day 28
Ye Christian heralds, go, proclaim 595
When gathering clouds around I view 122
Ye dying sons of men 266
When, his salvation bringing 580
Ye men and angels, witness now 448
When I can read mytitle clear 491
Ye servants of God, your master proclaim. 2
When I survey the wondrous cross 442
Ye servants of the Lord 453
When like a stranger on our sphere 117
Ye nations, round the earth rejoice 3
When, marshaled on the nightly plain..... 154 Yes, my
native land, I love thee 608
When morning gilds the skies 185
Your harps, ye trembling saints 312
When overwhelmed with grief 495
When peace, like a river attendeth 509
When shall we meet again 638 Zion, awake thy strength renew
;
514
When sins and fears prevailing rise 477 Zion stands with hills surrounded 521

THE LORD'S PRAYER.

Our Father which art in heaven, Hal-

lowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come.


Thy will be done in earth, as it is in

heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive

our debtors. And lead us not into temp-

tation, but deliver us from evil : For thine

is the kingdom, and the power, and the

glory, for ever. Amen.

The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:

The Lord make his face shine upon


thee, and be gracious unto thee
The Lord lift up his countenance upon
thee, and give thee peace.
(Numbers VI. 24-26.)

Now the God of peace, that brought


again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that

great Shepherd of the sheep, through the

blood of the everlasting covenant.

Make you perfect in every good work

to do his will, working in you that which

is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus

Christ; to whom be glory for ever and

ever. Amen.
(Hebrews XIII. 20-21.)-
