Ye nations, bow with sacred joy: 4 The Lord is good, the Lord is kind

He can create, and he destroy. And the whole race of man shall find
His truth from age to age endure.

Made us of clay, and formed us men
And when, like wandering sheep, we strayed,

He brought us to his fold again.
Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice:

High as tlie heavens our voices raise; And for his sheep he doth us take.
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues.

Shall till thy courts with sounding praise.
Approach with joy his courts unto;

His truth at all times firmly stood.
And shall from age to age endure.

Which echo o'er the heavenly plains. Nor let my feet incline to tread

36 Come, render to almighty grace
1 Come, let us join our cheerful songs, The tribute of your tongues.
With angels round the throne;
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues, 2 So strange, so boundless was the love.
But all their joys are one. That pitied dying men.
The Father sent his equal Son,
2 " Worthy the Lamb that died," they cry, To give them life again.
" To be exalted thus !"
" Worthy the Lamb," our lips reply,
" For he was slain for us !" 3 Thy hands, dear Jesus were not armed !

With a revenging rod;

3 Jesus is worthy to receive
No hard commission to perform
The vengeance of a God.
Honor and power divine;
And blessings, more than we can give,
Be, Lord! for ever thine. 4 But all was mercy, all was mild.
And wrath forsook the throne.
4 Let all who dwell above the sky, When Christ, on the kind errand, came,
And air, and earth, and seas. And brought salvation down.
Conspire to lift thy glories high.
And speak thine endless praise.
5 Here, sinners! you may heal your wounds,
And wipe your sorrows dry;
5 The whole creation join in one,
Trust in the mighty Saviour's name,
To bless the sacred name
Vnd you shall never die.
Of him who sits upon the throne,
And to adore the Lamb.
6 See, dearest Lord ! our willing souls
37 Accept thine offered grace;
1 Come, happy souls approach your God,
! We bless the great Redeemer's love.
With new melodious songs And give the Father praise.

My thoughts shall then to nobler heights. 40
And sweeter raptures rise. 1 Begin, my tongue, some heavenly theme,
And speak some boundless thing,

Their grateful tribute pay Of our eternal King.
The theme demands an angel's tongue.

And an eternal day.
And sound his power abroad;
39 Sing the sweet promise of his grace.
1 With my whole heart I'll raise my song.
Thy wonders I'll proclaim: And the performing God.
Thou, sovereign Judge of right and wrong. 3 His very word of grace is strong,
Wilt put thy foes to shame. As that which built the skies;
The voice that rolls the stars along.
2 I'll sing thy majesty and grace;
Speaks all the promises.
My God prepares his throne
To judge the world in righteousness.
4 Oh, might I hear thy heavenly tongue
And make his justice known. But whisper, " Thou art mine!"

For allthe poor oppressed, To notes almost divine.

79 By the anguished sigh that told

1 Saviour, when in dust to thee Treachery lurked within thy fold;

Low we bend the adoring knee; From thy seat above tlie sky.
When repentant to the skies Hear our solemn Litany !

Scarce we lift our weeping eyes

Oh, by all the pains and woe 4 By thine hour of dire despair;
Suflered once for man below, By thine agony of prayer
Bending from thy throne on high, By the cross, the nail, the thorn,
Hear our solemn Litany ! Piercing spear, and torturing scorn;
By the gloom that veiled the skies
2 By thy helpless infant years;
O'er the dreadful sacrifice;
By thy life of want and tears;
Listen to our humble cry.
By thy days of sore distress Hear our solemn Litany
In tlie lonely wilderness;
By the dread mysterious hour
5 By thy deep expiring groan
Of the insulting tempter's power;
By the sad sepulchral stone;
Turn, oh turn a favoring eye;
By the vault, whose dark abode
Hear our solemn Litany !

Held in vain the rising God;

3 By the sacred griefs that wept Oh, from earth to heaven restored.
O'er the grave where Lazarus slept; Mighty reascended Lord,
By the boding tears that flowed Listen, listen to the cry

Over Salena's loved abode Of our solemn Litany

Taste thy love and sing thy praise. Holy, holy, holy Lord

1 Come, thou Fount of every blessing, Wandering from the fold of God
Tune my heart to sing thj- grace; He, to rescue me from danger.
Streams of mercy, never ceasing. Interposed his precious blood.
Call for songs of loudest praise.

5 Oh, to grace how great a debtor

2 Teach me some melodious sonnet.
Daily I 'm constrained to be
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Let that grace now, like a fetter,
Praise the mount! I'm fixed upon it.
Bind my wandering heart to thee.
Mount of God's unchanging love!

3 Here I raise my Ebenezer; 6 Prone to wander. Lord, I feel it;

Hither by thy help I'm come; Prone to leave the God I love;

And I hope, by thy good pleasure, Here 's my heart; oh, take and seal It,-

Safely to arrive at home. Seal it for thy courts above!

3 The answering hills of Palestine

1 Plunged in a gulf of dark despair, S6nd back the glad reply ;

We wretclied sinners lay, And greet, from all their holy heights,
Without one cheerful beam of hope. The day-spring from on high.
Or spark of glimmering day.
4 O'er the blue depths of Galilee
2 With pitying eyes the Prince of grace There comes a holier calm,
Beheld our helpless grief; And Sharon waves, in solemn praise.
He saw, and— oh! amazing love! Her silent groves of palm.
He ran to our relief.
5 " Glory to God !" the sounding skies
3 Down from the shining seats above. Loud with their anthems ring,—
With joyful haste he fled, " Peace to the earth, good-will to men,
Entered the grave in mortal flesh. From heaven's eternal King !"
And dwelt among the dead.
102
4 Oh! for this love let rocks and hills
1 The people that in darkness sat
Their lasting silence break A glorious Light have seen
And all harmonious human tongues
The Light has shined on them who long
The Saviour's praises speak. In shades of death have been.

5 Angels! assist our mighty joys;

Strike all your harps of gold; 2 To us a child of hope is born.
But, when you raise your highest notes. To us a Son is given
His love can ne'er be told. Him shall the tribes of earth obey,
Him all the hosts of heaven.

Come heaven's melodious strains, For e-'ermore adored,
Where wild Judea stretches far The Wonderful, the Counselor,
Her silver-mantled plains. The great and mighty Lord.

2 Celestial choirs, from courts above. -1 His power increasing still shall spread,
Shed sacred glories there. His reign no end shall know
And angels, with their sparkling lyres. Justice shall guard his throne above,
Make music on the air. And peace abound below.

From every host, from every gem A voice of more than mortal sound.
But one alone the Saviour speaks,— In distant hallelujahs stole.

It is the Star of Bethlehem. Wild murmuring o'er the raptured soul.

3 Once on the raging seas I rode, 3 On wheels of light, on wings of flame,

The storm was loud, the night was dark,— The glorious hosts of Zion came;
The ocean yawned—and rudely blowed High heaven with songs of triumph rung.
The wind that tossed my foundering bark. While thus they struck their harps and sung:

4 Deep horror then my vitals froze. 4 "O Zion, lift thy raptured eye;
Death-struck, I ceased the tide to stem ;— The long-expected hour is nigh
When suddenly a star arose,— The joys of nature rise again

Their joyful songs proclaim that "God

Let the wide resound the deeds

And bade him raise our ruined race The holy Babe to greet.
From their abyss of woes.

Nor terror clothes his brow, Within that lowly door;

No bolts to drive our guilty souls A manger, stall, and swaddling clothes,

To fiercer flames below. A Child and Mother poor.

And wrath stood

When Christ was sent, with pardons, down And see wc him whose arm upholds
To rebels doomed to die. Earth and the starry height?

Let hopeless sorrow cease 6 Yea, faith can pierce the cloud
Bow to the sceptre of his love, Which veils thy glory now;
And take the offered peace. We hail thee God, before whose throne
The angels prostrate bow.

We lay an humble claim 7 A silent Teacher, Lord.
To the salvation thou hast brought. Thou bidst us not refuse
And love and praise thy name. To bear what flesh would have us shun,
To shun what flesh would choose.

The mighty truth to know, Didst manifest thy glory forth.
To lift the fleshy veil which hides In Cana's marriage hour.

4 The secret of the Lord Obedient to thy word.
Escapes each human eye. The water reddening into wine

The full Epiphany.
3 Blest were the eyes which saw
6 Lord, visit thou our souls, That wondrous mystery.
And teach us by thy grace The great beginning of thy works,
Each dim revealing of thyself That kindled faith in thee.
With loving awe to trace;
4 And blessed they who know
6 Till from our darkened sight Thine unseen Presence true.
The cloud shall pass away. When in the kingdom of thy grace
And on the cleans&d soul shall burst Thou makest all things new.

5 For by thy loving hand
Thy people still are fed;
1 Fierce raged the storm of wind, Thou art the Cup of blessing, Lord,
The surging waves ran high, And thou the Heavenly Bread.
Filled thy disciples' hearts with fear.

His head witli radiant glories crowned, And saves me from the grave.
His lips with grace o'erflow.

No mortal can with him compare 5 To heaven, the place of his abode.

Among the sons of men He brings my weary feet.
Shows me the glories of my God,
Fairer is he than all the fair,

And flew to my relief; Such proofs of love divine,

And carried all my grief. Lord, they should all be thine.

1 'Tismidnight; and on Olive's brow Howhigh our great Deliverer reigns;

The star is dimmed that lately shone: Sing,— how he spoiled the hosts of hell.
Tis midnight; in the garden now, And led the monster, death, in chains.
The suffering Saviour prays alone.
5 Say,—" Live for ever, glorious King!
2 'Tis midnight; and from all removed, Born to redeem, and strong to save!"
The Saviour wrestles lone with fears; Then ask, "O death where is thy sting?

Ev'n that disciple whom he loved And where thy vict'ry, boasting grave?"
Heeds not his Master's grief and tears.

3 'Tis midnight; and for others' guilt
1 Here at thy cross, incarnate God,
The Man of Sorrows weeps in blood;
I lay my
soul beneath thy love;
Yet he that hath in anguish knelt
Beneath the droppings of thy blood,
Is not forsaken by his God.
Jesus, nor shall it e'er remove.

4 'Tis midnight; and from ether-plains

Isborne the song that angels know ;
2 Not all that tyrants think or saj'.

Unheard by mortals are the strains With rage and lightning in their eyes,
That sweetly soothe the Saviour's woe. Nor hell shall fright my heart away.
Should hell with all its legions rise.

130 3 Should worlds conspire to drive me thence,

1 He dies!— the friend of sinners dies! Moveless and Arm this heart should lie;
Lo! Salem's daughters weep around! Resolved, for that's my last defence,
A solemn darkness veils the skies— If I must perish, there to die.
A sudden trembling shakes the ground.
2 Here's love and grief beyond degree, 4 But speak, my Lord, and calm my fear;
The Lord of glory dies for men Am I not safe beneath thy sliadc?
But,— lo! what sudden .joys we see! Thy vengeance will not strike me here.

Jesus, the dead, revives again.

Nor Satan dare my soul invade.

3 The rising God forsakes the tomb; 5 Yes, I'm secure beneath thy blood.
Up
to his Father's court he tlies; And all my foes shall lose their aim;
Cherubic legions guard him home. Hosanna to my Saviour God,
And shout him— welcome to the skies. And my best honors to his name.

Oh, come ye to the Saviour's side; My beauty are, my glorious dress
Oh, come, together let us mourn ; 'Midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed,

While soldiers scoff and Jews deride? For who aught to my charge shall lay?

Fully absolved through these I am,

His throat with parching thirst is dried To claim my mansion in the skies—
His failing eyes are dimmed with blood E'en then, this shall be all my plea:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified. Jesus hath lived, hath died for me.

4 Seven times he spake, seven words of love; 4 Thus Abraham, the Friend of God,
And all three hours his silence cried Thus all heaven'sarmiesbouglit with blood,
For mercy on the souls of men :
Saviour of Sinners, thee proclaim;
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified. Sinners, of whom the chief I am.

5 Come let us stand beneath the cross, 5 This spotless robe the samj appears.
So may the blood from out his side When ruined nature sinks in years;
Fall gently on us drop by drop: No age can change its glorious hue,
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified. The robe of Christ is ever new.

C A broken heart, a fount of tears 6 Oh, let the dead now liear thy voice:
Ask, and they will not be denied ;
Bid, Lord, thy mourning ones rejoice;

Lose all their guilty stains. For such a worm as I ?

Turn not from his griefs away. Lying in the rock alone.

Shun not suttering, shame, or loss; To the holy garden glade.
Learn of him to bear the cross. Where her buried Lord was laid.

There— adoring at his feet, I would solemn vigil spend;

Learn of Jesus Christ to die. None but thee may ever dwell.

1 O SACRED Head, now Avounded, 4 What language shall I borrow

With grief and sliame weiglied down, To thank thee, dearest Friend,
Now scornfully surrounded For this thy dying sorrow.
Witli thorns, thine only crown ; Thy pity without end?
O sacred Head, what glory, O make me thine for ever;
What bliss, till now was thine! And should I fainting be,
Yet though despised and gory, Lord, let me never, never
I joy to call thee mine. Outlive my love to thee!

2 What thou, my Lord, hast suflfered 5 And when I am departing,

Was all for sinners' gain O part not thou from nie
Mine, mine was the transgression. When mortal pangs are darting.
But thine the deadly pain Come, Lord, and set me free
Lo, here I fall, my Saviour! And when my heart must languish
'Tis I deserve thy place; Amidst the final throe.
Look on me with thy favor. Release me from mine anguish,
Vouchsafe to me thy grace. By thine own pain and woe!

3 The joy can ne'er be spoken, 6 Be near me when I'm dying

Above all joys beside. O show thy cross to me
When in thy body broken And for my succor flying.
I thus with safety hide: Come, Lord, and set me free
My Lord of Life, desiring These eyes, new faith receiving.
Thy glory now to see. From Jesus shall not move;
Beside thy cro-;s expiring, For he who dies believing.
I'd breathe my soul to thee. Dies safely, through thv love.

1 Our Lord is risen from the dead; Ascend, and claim again on high.
Our Jesus is gone up on high Thy glory left for us to die.
The powers of hell are captive led,
Dragged to the portals of the sky. 2 A radiant cloud is now thy seat.
And earth lies stretched beneath thy feet;
2 There his triumphal chariot waits, Ten thousand thousands round thee sing,
And angels chant the solemn lay And share the triumph of their King.
"Lift up your heads, ye heavenly gates
Ye everlasting doors ! give way. 3 The angel-host enraptured waits:
" Lift up your heads, eternal gates !"
3 " Loose all your bars of massy light.
O God-and-Man the Father's Throne
!

And wide unfold th' ethereal scene;

Is now for evermore thine own.
He claims these mansions as his right;
Receive the King of glory in." 4 Our great High Priest and Shepherd, thou
Within the veil art entered now.
4 " Who is the King of glory ?— who ?"
To offer there thy precious Blood
"The Lord, that all our foes o'ercame.
Once poured on earth a cleansing flood.
The world, sin, death, and hell o'erthrew
And Jesus is the Conqueror's name." And
.5 thence the Church, thy chosen Bride,
5 Lo ! his triumphal chariot waits. With countless gifts of grace supplied.
And angels chant the solemn lay Through all her members draws from thee
" Liftup your heads, ye heavenly gates Her hidden life of sanctity.
Ye everlasting doors! give way."
6 O Christ, our Lord, of thy dear care
6 "Who is the King of glory?— who?" Thy lowly members heavenward be
" The Lord, of glorious power possessed Be ours with thee to sufl'er pain.
The King of saints and angels too With thee for evermore to reign.
God over all, for ever blessed."
7 All praise from every heart and tongue
152 To thee, ascended Lord, be sung;

The winepress of the wrath of God, And Holy Ghost eternally.

To save our souls from death and hell ? 3 Then backto heaven they fly

That gilds the sacred tomb, Your Advocate and Friend
Where Christ the crucified was borne, Once by the law your hopes were slain,
And veiled in midnight gloom ! But now in Christ ye live again.
Oh, weep no more the Saviour slain.

The Lord is risen, he lives again.
'Tis Jesus still appears,
A risen Lord, to chase away

For your departed Lord, Oh, weep no more your comforts slain.
" Behold tlie place, he is not here !" The Lord is risen, he lives again.
The tomb is all unbarred:
5 And when tlie shades of evening fall.
The gates of death were closed in vain,
When life's last hour draws nigh.
The Lord is risen, he lives agaiia.
If Jesus shines upon the soul.
How blissful then to die!

Your early footsteps bend: Ye die in Christ to live again.

A token of his love he gives, And, in his measure, feels afresh
A pledge of liberty. What every member bears.
2 I find him lifting up my head; . 5 Then let our humble faith address
Hebrings salvation near: His mercy and his power;
His presence makes me free indeed, We shall obtain delivering grace.
And he will soon appear. In the distressing hour.

3 He wills that I should holy be: 164

What can withstand his will?

He surely shall fulfill. Our great High-Priest above;
And celebrate his constant care,

Thou wilt return, and claim me. Lord, 2 Though raised to a superior throne.
And to thyself receive. Where angels bow around.
And high o'er all the shining train,

Of our High-Priest above Deep graven on his heart;
His heart is made of tenderness. Nor shall the meanest Christian say.
His bowels melt with love. That he hath lost his part.

2 Touched with a sympathy within, 4 Those characters shall fair abide

He knows our feeble frame; Our everlasting trust.
He knows what sore temptations mean, When gems, and monuments, and crowns.
For he has felt the same. Are mouldered down to dust.

3 But spotless, innocent, and pure. 5 So, gracious Saviour! on my breast,

The great Redeemer stood May thy dear name
be worn,
While Satan's flerj- darts he bore A sacred ornament and guard.
And did resist to blood. To endless ages borne.

I did not love my Shepherd's voice, I love my tender Shepherd's voice,
I would not be controlled: I love the peaceful fold
I was a wayward child, No more a wayward child,

Give me on thee to wait,
Famished, and faint, and lone; Till I can all things do;
He bound me with the bands of love. On thee,— almighty to create,

As free and true as thine,
And visited and cheered.

And grief's dark day come on. 4 Help us then, Lord, thy yoke to wear,

My dearest Lord, for thee? We in thy poor would see,

It is but right, since thou hast done And while we minister to them
Much more than this for me. Would do it as to thee.

2 Ten thousand worlds, ten thousand lives, 6 Do thou,O Lord, our alms accept,
How worthless they appear. And with thy blessing speed;
Compared with thee, supremely good. Bless us in giving; greatly bless
Divinely bright and fair !
Our gifts to them that need.

3 Saviour of souls, while I from thee 7 To Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
A single smile obtain. The God whom we adore.
Though destitute of all things else, Be glory, as it was, is now.
I'll glory in my gain. And shall be evermore.

In a believer's ear! Attract me nearer still
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds Draw me, like Mary, to thy feet,

And drives away his fear. To sit and learn thy will.

And calms the troubled breast; Thy Spirit and thy word,
'Tis manna to the hungry soul. From all the things of time and sense,
And, to the weary, rest. To thee, my gracious Lord.

And cold my warmest thought; 2 I see thee not, I hear thee not,
But when I seethee as thou art, Yet art thou oft with me.
I'll praise thee as I ought. And earth hath ne'er so dear a spot
As where I meet with thee.

5 Till then I would thy love prcjelaim

With every fleeting breath ;
3 Like some bright dream that comes unsoug
And may the music of thy name When slumbers o'er me roll.
Refresh my soul in death. Thine image ever fills my thought,
And charms my ravished soul.

1 Jesus, my Saviour! bind me fast 4 Yet though I have not seen, and still

In cords of heavenly love; Must rest in faith alone,

Then sweetly draw me to thy breast I love thee, dearest Lord and will.!

Nor let me thence remove. Unseen, but not unknown.

2 Draw nie from all created good, 5 AVhen death these mortal eyes shall seal,
From self, the world and sin. And still this throbbing heart.
To the dear fountain of thy blood, The rending veil shall thee reveal
And make me pure within. All glorious as thou art.

Then let me nothing love; When Jesus is revealed.

TJiis trembling house of clay, "Come unto me and rest
'Tia sweet to look beyond the flesh, Lay down, thou weary one, lay down
And long to fly away- Thy head upon my breast."
Sweet to look inward, and attend I came to Jesus as I was,
The whispers of his love; Weary, and worn, and sad;
Sweet to look upward to the place I found in him a resting-place,
Where Jesus pleads above And he has made me glad.

'2 Sweet to reflect how grace divine 2 Iheard the voice of Jesus say,
My sins on Jesus laid; " Behold, I freely give
Sweet to remember that his blood The living water thirsty one,
;

My debt of suflTerings paid Stoop down and drink, and live."

Sweet on his righteousness to stand. I came to Jesus, and I drank
Which saves from second death ; Of that life-giving stream;
Sweet to experience, day by day, My thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
His Spirit's quickening breath; And now I live in him.
3 Sweet, in the confidence of faith, 3 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
To trust his firm decrees; "I am this dark world's light;
Sweet to lie passive in his hands. Look unto me: thy morn shall rise
And know no will but his. And all thy day be bright."
Ifsuch the sweetness of the stream, I looked to Jesus, and I found

1 Thou very-present Aid 3 He hears their softest plaint
In suffering and distress He sees them when they roam;
Ttie soul wliieli still on thee is stayed And if his meanest lamb should faint.
Is kept in perfect peace. His bosom bears it home.

2 The soul, b.y faith reclined 4 Kind Shepherd of the sheep,

On the Redeemer's breast, A weakly flock are we.
Mid raging storms, exults to And And snares and foes are nigh but keep ;

An everlasting rest. The lambs who look to thee.

3 Sorrow and fear are gone 271

Whene'er thy face appears 1 I BLESS the Christ of God
It stills the sighing orphan's moan, I rest on love divine
And dries the widow's tears. And with unfaltering lip and heart
I call this Saviour mine.

4 It hallows every cross;

It sweetly comforts me; 2 His cross dispels each doubt;
It makes me now forget ray loss, I bury in his tomb

And lose myself in thee. Each thought of unbelief and fear.

Each lingering shade of gloom.
5 Jesus, to whom I fly.
Doth all my wishes fill; 3 I praise the God of grace;
"What though created streams are dry? I trust his truth and might;
I have the fountain still. He calls me his, I call him mine,
My God, my joy, my light.
270
1 To praise our Shepherd's care, 4 'Tis he who saveth me.
His wisdom, love and might. And freely pardon gives
Your loudest, loftiest songs prepare, I love because he loveth me,
And bid the world unite. I live because he lives.

2 Supremely good and great, 5 My life with him is hid.

He tends his blood-bought fold My death has passed away.
He stoops, though throned in highest state. My clouds have melted into light,
The feeblest to uphold. My midnight into day.

And homes are bare and cold, Like them, in faith, to bear
And lambs for whom the Saviour bled All that of sorrow, grief or pain
Are straying from the fold. May be our portion here.

3 To comfort and to bless, 5 Enough if thou at last

To find a balm for woe. The word of blessing give,
To tend the lone and fatherless. And let us rest beneath thy feet.
Is angels' work below. Where saints and angels live.

1 Awaked by Sinai's awful sound, The sinner by his justice slain
My soul in bonds of guilt. I found, Now' by his grace is born again,
And knew not where to go; And sings redeeming love.
Eternal truth did loud proclaim,
"The sinner must be born again,"
281
1 O THOU that hear'st the prayer of faith,
Or sink to endless woe.
Wilt tliou not save a soul from death
That casts itself on thee?
2 When to the law I trembling fled,
Ihave no refuge of my own.
It poured its curses on my head,
But fly to what my Lord has done
I no relief could find ;
And suflfered once for me.
This fearful truth increased my pain,
"The sinner must be born again," 2 Slain in the guilty sinner's stead,
And whelmed my tortured mind. His spotless righteousness I plead,
And his availing blood ;

3 Again did Sinai's thunders roll, Thy merit. Lord, my robe shall be.
And guilt lay heavy on my soul, Thy merit sliall atone for me.
A vast oppressive load ;
And bring me near to God.
Alas ! I read and saw it plain,
"The sinner must be born again," 3 Then snatch me from eternal deatli.
Or drink the wrath of God. The spirit of adoption breathe,
His consolation send
1 Tlie saints I heard with rapture tell By him some wo>'d of life impart.
How Jesus conquered death and hell. And sweetly whisper to my heart,
And brolce the fowler's snare; "Thy Maker is thy Friend."
Yet when I found this truth remain,
4 The Icing of terrors then would be
"The sinner must be born again,"
I sunk in deep despair.
A welcome messenger to me,
That bids me come away
5 But while I thus in anguish lay Unclogg'd by earth or earthly things,
The gracious Saviour passed this way, I'd mount upon his sable wings
And felt his pity move; To everlasting day.

4 Yet I mourn my stubborn will. 4 All my little strength is gone.

Find my sin a grief and thrall; Sink I must without supply;

If I did not love at all ? Can more weary be than I.

Thou who art thy people's Sun, Found a welcome resting-place;

1 Come, O thou traveler unknown! 1 Yield to me now, for I am weak,
Whom still I hold, but cannot see, But confident In self-despair;
My company before is gone. Speak to my heart, in blessings speak;
And I am left alone with thee; Be conquered by my instant prayer;
"With thee all night I mean to stay. Speak, or thou never hence shall move,
And wrestle till the break of day. And tell me if thy name be Love.
2 I need not tell thee who I am 2 'Tis Love! 'tis Love! thou diedst for me;
My sin and misery declare; I hear thy whisper in my heart;
Thyself hast call'd me by my name The morning breaks, the shadows flee;
Look on thy hands and read it there; Pure, universal Lov^e thou art
But who, I ask thee, who art thou? To me, to all, thy bowels move—
Tell me thy name, and tell me now. Thy nature and thy name is I^ove.

3 In vain thou strugglest to get free; .3 My prayer hath power with God; the grace
Inever will unloose my hold! Unspeakable I now receive;
Art thou the Man that died for me? Through faith I see tliee face to face—
The secret of thy love unfold; I see thee face to face, and live!
Wrestling, I will not let thee go. In vain I have not wept and strove;
Till I thy name, thy nature, know. Thy nature and thy name is Love.

•1 Wilt thou not yet to mc reveal 1 I know thee. Saviour! who thou art
Thy new, unutterable name? .Icsns, the feeble sinner's Friend;
Tell me, I still licseech thee, tell; Nor wilt thou with the night depart.
To know it resolved I am
now ;
But stay and love me to the end;
Wrestling, I will not let thee go, Thy mercies never shall remove;
Till I thy name, thy nature, know. Thy nature and thy name is Love.

My Lord, thy will be done. Choose thou my good and ill.

Each changing future scene Choose thou my cares for me.

Let thy goodness never fail us. But to him who comfort gives?
Lead us in thy perfect way. Whither from the dread of dying
But to him who ever lives?

While I view thee, wounded, grieving.
In the hour when death draws near,
Breathless on the cursed tree,
Suffer not our hearts to languish.

Sutler not our souls to fear;

My burdens and my cares; His sight is never dim;
He from tliem all releases. He knows the way he taketh.
He all my sorrows shares. And I will walk with him.

When arrayed in thy glories I shine, He ransomed from death and despair,
Nor grieve any more by my sins For you he was mightj' to save,

1 O God! thou art my God alone; 3 While place we seek or place we shun,
Early to thee my soul shall cry, The soul finds happiness in none;
A pilgrim in a land unknown, But with our God to guide our way,
A thirsty land whose springs are dry. 'T is equal joy to go or stay.

2 Oh. that it were as it hath been, i Could we be cast where thou art not,
When, praying in the holy place, That were indeed a dreadful lot
Thy power and glory I have seen, But regions none remote we call.
And marked the footsteps of thy grace. Secure of finding God in all.

S Yet through this rough and thorny maze 383

Thy hand unseen upholds my ways, To him that earth's foundation laid;

Sway the creation as he please.

When I remember on my bed. 2 Praise to the goodness of the Ijord,
Thy presence makes the darkness light, Who rules liis people by his word;
Thy guardian wings are round mj- head. And there, as strong as his decrees.
He sets his kindest promises.
5 Better than life itself thy love;
Dearer than all beside to me; 3 Whence, then, should doubts and fears arise?
For whom have I in heaven above M'hy trickling sorrows drown our eyes?
Or what on earth compared with thee? Slowly, alas! our mind receives
The comforts that our Maker gives.

1 O Lord! how full of sweet content 4 Oh, for a strong, a lasting faith
Our years of pilgrimage are spent Tocredit what th' Almighty saith !

Where'er we dwell, we dwell with thee. T'embrace the message of his Son,
In heaven, in earth or on the sea. And call the joys of heaven our own

2 To us remains nor place nor time; 5 Then, should the earth's old pillars shake.
Our country is in every elime; And all the wheels of nature break,
We can be calm and free from care Our steady souls should fear no more
On any shore, since God is there. Than solid rocks when billows roar.

The midnight of the soul. Help me to choose the way of truth
And flee from every snare.

1 Father! 1 know that all my life Farther than tliouglit itself can flee.
Is portioned out for me Thy dwelling is on higli;
The changes that will surely come Yet dear tlie awful thought to me
I do not fear to see; That thou, my God! art nigh—
I ask thee for a present mind,
Intent on pleasing tliee.
2 Art nigh, and yet my
lab'ring mind
Feels after lliee in vain.
2 I ask thee for a thoughtful love, Thee in these works of power to find
Througii constant watching wise, Or to tiiy seat attain
To meet the glad with joyful smiles. Tliy messenger, the stormy wind.
And wipe the weeping eyes; Thy path, the trackless main.
A heart at leisure from itself 3 These speak of thee with loud acclaim ;
To soothe and sympathize. Tliey tliunder forth thy praise.
The glorious lionor of tliy name.
3 I ask thee for the daily strength
The wonders of thy ways;
To none that ask denied,
But thou art not in tempest-flame,
A mind to blend with outward life
Nor in the solar blaze.
While keeping at thy side.
Content to fill a little space. 4 We hear thy voice when tliunders roll
If thou be glorified. Through the wild fields of air;
The waves obey thy dread control
4 And if some things I do not ask Yet still tliou artnot there:
Among my blessings be, Where sliall I find him, O my
soul
I'd have my spirit filled
the more Who yet Is everywhere?
With grateful love to thee;
More careful not to serve thee much, 5 Oh, not in circling depth or height.
But please thee perfectly. But in the conscious breast,
Present to faith, though veiled from sight,
46^ There does his Spirit rest;
1 Beyond, beyond that boundless sea. Oh, come, thou Presence infinite!
Above that dome of sky, And make thy creature blest.

Wakened up from wrath to flee, When has sunk yon glorious sun,
Hidden in the Saviour's side. When, from ofl' the mount of God,

2 Oft I walk beneath the cloud. 2 When I hear the wicked call
Dark as midnight's gloomy shroud; On the rocks and hills to fall.

But when fear is at the height, When I see them start and shrink
Jesus comes, and all is light; On the flery deluge brink,
Blessed Jesus bid me show
! Then, Lord ! shall I fully know-
Doubting saints how much I owe. Not till then— how much I owe!

3 Oft the nights of sorrow reign, 3 When I stand before the throne
Weeping, sickness, sighing, pain; Clothed in beauty not my own,
But a night thine anger burns. When I see thee as thou art.
Morning comes, and joy returns; Love thee with unsinning heart.
God of comforts bid me show! Then, Lord shall I fully know-
!

To thy poor how much I owe. Not till then— how much I owe

4 When in flowery paths I tread. 4 When the praise of heaven I hear.

Oft by sin I 'm captive led Loud as thunders to the ear.
Oft I fall, but still arise, Loud as many waters' noise.

The Christian while he sings; But he will boar us through ;

It is the Lord, who rises Who gives the lilies clothing

With healing in his wings; Win clothe his people too;
When comforts are declining, Beneath the spreading heavens
He grants the soul again No creature but is fed
A season of clear shining, And he who feeds the ravens
To cheer it after rain. Will give his children bread.

We sweetly then pursue Their wonted fruit should bear.
The theme of God's salvation, Though all the fields sliould wither.
And find it ever new Nor flocks nor herds be tliere;
Set free from present sorrow, Yet God the same abiding.
Wecheerfully can say, His praise shall tune my voice,
Let the unknown to-morrow For while in him confiding
Bring with it what it may, I cannot but rejoice.

And bids the mourner's sighing cease;
She makes the pearly gates appear;
By faith the children's riglit we claim.
Far into distant worlds she pries.
And call upon our Father's name.
And brings eternal glories near.

4 Faith feels the Spirit's kindling breath 3 Cheerful we tread the desert througli.
In love and hope tliat conquer death; While faith inspires a heavenly raj-,
Faith brings us to delight in God, Though lions roar and tempests blow.
And blesses e'en his smiting rod. And rocks and dangers fill the way.

And keep thy laws in sight. So much allures the taste.

With ever-fresh delight. 5 No treasures so enrich the mind,

From earth to realms of endless day. 4 Should all the forms that men devise
Assault my faith with treacherous art,

What light and joy those leaves afford And warn me where my danger lies.
To souls benighted and distressed! But 'tis thy blessed gospel. Lord !

Thy precepts guide my doubtful way, That makes my guilty conscience clean.
Thy fear forbids my feet to stray, Converts my soul, subdues my sin,
Thy promise leads my heart to rest. And gives a free but large reward.
2 From the discoveries of thy law 4 Who knows the errors of his thoughts?
The perfect rules of life I draw; My God forgive my secret faults.

These are my study and delight; And from presumptuous sins restrain;
Not honey so invites the taste. Accept my poor attempts of praise.
Nor gold that hath the furnace passed That I have read thy book of grace.
Appears so pleasing to the sight. And book of nature,not in vain.

And there our vows and honors pay. To bless thu soul of every guest;

Adorned with wondrous grace. And wishes thine increase,
And walls of strength embrace thee round; A thousand blessings on him rest!

To pray, to praise and hear Peace to this sacred house !"

How blest thy chosen, who by grace
To praise thy name in Zion's gates; Are brought within thy dwelling-place,
To thee shall vows be paid. That they may there abide !

Thou Hearer of the suppliant's prayer!

All flesh shall unto thee repair 3 The goodness of thy house, O Lord !

To seek thy gracious aid. The joys thy holy courts afford,
Our souls shall satisfy.

And words of peace reveal But died without the sight.

How sweet the tidings are And tuneful notes employ;
"Zion ! behold thy Saviour King; Jerusalem breaks forth in songs,
He reigns and triumphs here." And deserts learn the joy.

3 How happy are our ears, 6 The Lord makes bare his arm
That hear this joyful sound, Through all tlie earth abroad;

And sought, but never found Their Saviour and tlieir God.

Tlie fellowship of kindred minds But we shall still be joined in heart,

Is like to that above. And hope to meet again.
2 Before our Father's throne 5 This glorious hope revives
We pour our ardent prayers; Our courage by the way.
Our fears, our hopes, our aims, are one, While each in expectation lives,
Our comforts and our cares. And longs to see the day.
3 We share our mutual woes, 6 From sorrow, toil and pain
Our mutual burdens bear, And sin we shall be free.
And often for each other flows And perfect love and friendship reign
The sympathizing tear. Thi'ough all eternity.

When tlironed above the skies. 1 On, still in accents sweet and strong
And midst the embraces of his God Sounds forth the ancient word

More laborers for the Lord."

To raise us from the ground. 2 We hear the call; in dreams no more
And made the richest of his blood In selfish ease we lie,

1 Great God whose universal sway
! Oh, bid the morning star arise,
The known and unknown worlds obey, Oh, point the heathen to the skies.
Now give the kingdom to thy Son, 2 Set up thy throne where Satan reigns.
Extend his power, exalt his throne.
On western wilds and eastern plains;
2 Thy sceptre well becomes his hands, Far let the gospel's sound be known,
All heaven submits to his commands; Make thou the universe thine own.
His justice shall avenge the poor.
3 Speak, and the world shall hear thy voice.
And pride and rage prevail no more.
Speak, and the desert shall rejoice;
3 With power he vindicates the just, Dispel the gloom of heathen night.
And treads th' oppressor in the dust; Bid every nation hail the light.

His worship and his fear shall last

Till hours and years and time be past.
621
1 Arm of the Lord! awake, awake,
4 As rain on meadows newly mown, Put on thy strength, the nations shake,
So shall he send his influence down And let the world, adoring, see
His grace on fainting souls distills Triumphs of mercy wrought by thee.
Like heavenly dew on thirsty hills.
2 Say to the heathen from thy throne,
5 The heathen lands that lie beneath " I am Jehovah— God alone;"
The shades of overspreading death Thy voice their idols shall confound,
Revive at his first dawning light, And cast their altars to the ground.
And deserts blossom at the sight.
3 No more let human blood be spilt.
6 The saints shall flourish in his days, Vain sacrifice for human guilt,
Dressed in the robes of joy and praise But to each conscience be applied
Peace like a river from his throne The blood that flowed from Jesus' side.
Shall flow to nations yet unknown.
4 Almighty God thy grace proclaim.
!

620 In every land declare thy name.

1 Sovereign of worlds! display thy power, Till adverse powers before thee fall.

Be this thy Zion's favored hour; And crown the Saviour Lord of all.

"And to his house, we '11 go." 5 Thus, though the universe shall burn
And God his works destroy.

" Nor scorn their huinble name.
4 And soon, too soon, the wintry hour
For 't was to bless such souls as these
Of man's maturer age
The Lord of angels came."
May sliake the soul with sorrow's power
And stormy passion's rage. 3 Wo bring them, Lord! in thankful hands.
And yield them up to thee;

His love is still as great; 2 Oh, shall not warmer accents tell

Well he remembers Calvary, The gratitude we owe

Nor lets his saints forget. To him who died our fears to quell,

To plead thy promise and obey thy call.

Nor sit the last and lowest at thy board;
Too long a wanderer and too oft beguiled,

And I could face the cold, rough world again,
And with that treasure in my heart could brook

That trembles at his feet. In ecstasies unlinown.

3 In him the Father reconciled 6 And yet ten thousand thousand more
Invites your souls to come Are welcome still to come;
The rebel shall be called a child. Ye longing souls, the grace adore.
And kindly welcomed home. Approach, there yet is room.

1 Light of light ! enlighten me, 4 Let me with my heart to-day,
Now anew dawning;
the day is Holy, holy, holy, singing,
Sun of grace! the shadows flee, Rapt a while from earth away.
Brighten thou my Sabbath morning; All my Boul to thee upspringing,
Witli thy joyous sunshine blest, Have a foretaste only given
Happy is my day of rest. How they worship thee in heaven.

2 Fount of all our Joy and peace 5 Rest In me and I in thee,

To thy living waters lead me; Build a paradise within me;
Thou from earth my soul release, Oh, reveal thyself to me.
And with grace and mercy feed ine; Blessed Love who diedst to win me
!

Bless thy word that it may prove Fed from thine exhaustless urn,
Ricli in fruit that thou dost love. Pure and bright my lamp shall burn.

3 Kindle tliou the sacrifice G Hence all care, all vanity,

That upon my lips is lying; For the day to God is holy;
Clear the shadows from mine eyes, Come, thou glorious Majesty !

That, from every error flying. Deign to fill this temple lowly;
No strange fire within me glow Naught to-day my soul shall move.
That thine altar doth not Itnow. Simply resting in thy love.

 THE LORD'S DAY.
ORFORD. L M.

1 My opening eyes with rapture see 4 In holy duties let the day,
The dawn of thy returning day; In holy pleasures, pass away;
My thoughts, O God ascend
! to thee, How sweet the Sabbath thus to spend
While thus my early vows I pay. In hope of one that ne'er shall end!

2 Oh, bid this trifling world retire, 702

And drive each carnal thought away 1 Another day has passed along,
Nor let me feel one vain desire, And we are nearer to the tomb
One sinful thought, through all the day. Nearer to join the heavenly song
Or hear the last eternal doom.
3 Then, to thy courts when I repair,

My soul shall rise on joyful wing, 2 Sweet is the light of Sabbath eve,
The wonders of thy love declare. And soft the sunbeams lingering there;

And join the strains which angels sing. For these blest hours the world I leave,
Wafted on wings of faith and prayer.
701
1 Another six days" work is done, 3 The time how lovely and how still
Another Sabbath begun
is ; Peace shines and smiles on all below.
Return, my soul, enjoy thy rest. The plain, the stream, the wood, the liill,
Improve the day thy God hath blessed. All fair with evening's setting glow.

2 Oh. that our thoughts and thanks may rise 4 Season of rest! the tranquil soul
As grateful incense to the skies. Feels the sweet calm, and melts in love,
And draw from heaven that sweet repose And while these sacred moments roll

Wiiich none but he that feels it knows. Faith sees a smiling heaven above.

^ This heavenly calm within the breast 5 Nor will our days of toil be long,
Is the dear pledge of glorious rest Our pilgrimage will soon be trod;
Which for the church of God remains— And we shall join the ceaseless song.
The end of cares, the end of pains. The endless Sabbath of our God.

SURREY. L M.

1 Lord of the Sabbath hear our vows.

! 2 Come, Holy Spirit! all divine.
On this thy day, in this thy house, With rays of liglit upon us shine.
And own as grateful sacrifice And our waiting souls be blessed
let

The songs which from the desert rise. On this sweet day of sacred rest.

2 Thine earthly Sabbaths, Lord we ! love, 3 Then, when our Sabbaths here are o'er,
But there 's a nobler rest above And we arrive on Canaan's shore.
To that our laboring souls aspire With all the ransomed we shall spend
With ardent pangs of strong desire. A Sabbath which shall never end.
3 No more fatigue, no more distress, 705
Nor sin, nor hell, shall reach the place; 1 Great God! attend while Sion sings
No groans to mingle with the songs The joy that from thy presence springs;
Which warble from immortal tongues; To spend one day with thee on earth
Exceeds a thousand days of mirth.
4 No rude alarms of raging foes.
No cares to break the long repose 2 God is our sun, he makes our day
No midnight shade, no clouded sun. God is our shield, he guards our way
But sacred, high, eternal noon. From all th' assaults of hell and sin,
From foes without and foes within.
5 O long-expected day, begin,
Dawn on these realms of woe and sin; 3 All needful grace will God bestow,
Fain would we leave this weary road. And crown that grace with glory too;
And sleep in death to rest witli God. He gives us all things, and withholds
No real good from upright souls.
704
1 Come, dearest Lord! and bless this day. i O God our King! whose sovereign sway
Come, bear our thoughts from earth away; The glorious hosts of heaven obey.
Now let our noblest passions rise And devils at thy presence flee,

With ardor to their native skies. Blest is the man that trusts in thee.

1 Fkequent the day of God returna But long thy praises to proclaim
To shed its quickennig beams, With fervor in our own.
And yet how slow devotion burns!
3 We mourn not that prophetic skill
How huiguid are its flames!
Is found on earth no more
2 Accept our faint attempts to love, Enough for us to trace thy will
Our frailties. Lord! forgive; In Scripture's sacred lore.
We would be like thy saints above,
4 When tongues shall cease and power decay.
And praise thee while we live.
And knowledge empty prove.
3 Increase, O Lord ! our faith and hope. Do thou thy trembling servants stay
And tit us to ascend With faith, with hope, with love.
Where the assembly ne'er breaks up,
The Sabbath ne'er shall end;
708
1 When the worn spirit wants repose
4 Where we shall breathe in heavenly air, And sighs her God to seek,
With heavenly lustre shine, How sweet to hail the evening's close
Before the throne of God appear, That ends the weary week
And feast on love divine;
2 How welcome is the early dawn
5 Where we in high seraphic strains That opens on the sight
Shall all our powers employ; When first the soul-reviving morn
Delighted range th' ethereal plains, Sheds forth new rays of light!

And take our fill of joy.

3 Blest day ! thine hours too soon will cease.

707 Yet, while they gently roll,

1 Spirit of truth ! on tliis thy day Breathe, heavenly Spirit, Source of peace!
To thee for help we cry A Sabbath o'er my soul.

To guide us through tlic dreary way

1 When will my pilgrimage be done.
Of (larlf mortality.
The world's long week be o'er,
2 We ask not, liOrd ! the cloven flame Sabbath dawn which needs no sun,

He callsthe hours his own ;
To liold our God in vain ;

Let lieaven rejoice, let earth be glad. Tlie sleeping Conqueror arose.
And praise surround tlie throne. And burst their feeble chain.

2 To-day he rose and left the dead, 4 To thy great name, almighty Lord!
And Satan's empire fell These sacred hours we pay,
To-day the saints his triumph spread. And loud hosannas shall proclaim
And all his wonders tell. The triumph of the day.

3 Hosanna to th' anointed King, 5 Salvation and immortal praise

To David's holy Son ;
To our victorious King;
Help us, O Lord descend and bring
! Let heaven and earth and rocks and seas
Salvation from thy throne. With glad hosannas ring.

4 Blest be the Lord who come to men 711

With messages of grace, 1 With joy we hail the sacred day
Who comes in God his Father's name Which God hath called his own;
To save our sinful race. With joy the summons we obey
To worship at his throne.
5 Hosanna in the highest strains
The cliurch on earth can raise; 2 Thy chosen temple, Lord! how fair!
The highest heavens in which he reigns Where willing vot'ries throng
Shall give him nobler praise. To breathe the humble, fervent prayer
And pour the choral song.
710
1 Blest morning, whose young dawning rays 3 Spirit of grace! oh, deign to dwell
Beheld our rising God, Within thy church below;
That saw him triumph o'er the dust. Make her in holiness excel,
And leave his dark abode. With pure devotion glow.

2 In the cold prison of a tomb 4 Let peace within her walls be found;
The great Redeemer lay Let all her sons unite
Till the revolving skies had brought To spread with grateful zeal around
The third, th' appointed, day. Her clear and shining liglit.

LISBON. S. M.

1 To-day the Saviour rose, 4 My willing soul would stay

Our Jesus left the dead ;
In such a frame as this.
He conquered our malignant foes, And sit and sing lierself away
And Satan captive led. To everlasting bliss.

2 He left his glorious throne, 714

To make our peace with God ; 1 How charming is the place
Blessings for ever on liis name, Where my Redeemer God
He bought us with liis blood. Unveils the beauties of his face,
And sheds his love abroad !

3 For us his life he paid.

For us the law fulfilled; 2 Not the fair palaces
On him our load of guilt was laid; To which the great resort
We by his stripes are healed. Are once to be compared with this,
Wliere Jesus holds his coui't.
4 Ye saints, adore his name
Who hath such mercy shown; 3 Here, on the mercy-seat.
Ye sinners, love the bleeding Lamb, With radiant glory crowned,
And make his praises known. Our joyful eyes behold him sit
And smile on all around.
713
1 Welcome, sweet day of rest 4 To him their prayers and cries
That saw the Lord arise; Each humble soul presents;
Welcome to this reviving breast He listens to their broken sighs.
And these rejoicing eyes. And grants them all their wants.

2 Tiie King himself comes near, 5 To them his sovereign will

And feasts his saints to-day; He graciously imparts,
Here we may sit, and see him here. And in return accepts, with smiles,
And love and praise and pray. The tribute of their hearts.

3 One day amidst the place 6 Give me, O Lord a place

!

Where my dear God hath been, Within thy blest abode,

Is sweeter than ton thousand days Ainong the children of thy grace,
Of pleasurable sin, The servants of my God.

True Liglit that lightenest all
Ifthou attune the heart,
2 Around thy throne on high. "We in thine angels' music still
Where night can never be. May bear our lower part.
The white-robed harpers of the sky
5 Shine thou within us, then,
Bring ceaseless hymns to thee.
A day that knows no end.
3 Too faint our anthems here; Tillsongs of angels and of men
Too soon of praise we tire; In perfect praise sliall blend.

1 Again the day returns of holy rest [blest. So shall he liear when fervently we raise
Which, when he made the world, Jehovah Our supplications and our songs of praise.
When, like his own. he bade our labors cease. 3 Father in heaven in whom our hopes confide.

And all be piety and all be peace. Whose power defends us and whose precepts

To learn his will, and all we learn obey; Glory supreme be thine till time shall end.

A guilty world in gloom To hail this welcome morn.
Oh what a sun which broke this day Which scatters blessings from its wings
Triumphant from the tomb! On nations yet unborn.

On thee for our salvation And living water flowing
Christ rose from depths of earth Witli soul-refreshing streams,
On thee our Lord victorious
The Spirit sent from heaven 5 New graces ever gaining
And thus on thee most glorious From this our day of rest.

A triple light was given. We reach the rest remaining

To spirits of the blest;

MORNINGTON. S. M,

1 The church has waited long Oh, why these years of waiting here.
Her absent Lord to see, These ages of delay?
And still in loneliness she waits,
2 Come, for thy saints still wait;
A friendless stranger she.
Daily ascends their sigh;
2 Age after age has gone, The Spirit and the Bride say. Come
Sun after sun has set, Dost thou not hear the cry ?
And still in weeds of widowhood
She weeps a mourner yet. 3 Come, for the good are few.
They lift the voice in vain
3 Saint after saint on earth
Faith waxes fainter on the earth.
Has lived and loved and died,
And love is on the wane.
And as they left us one by one
"We laid them side by side 4 Come, for love waxes cold.
Its steps are faint and slow
4 We laid them down to sleep.
Faith now is lost in unbelief;
But not in hope forlorn
Hope's lamp burns dim and low.
We laid them but to ripen there
Till the last glorious morn. 5 Come, and make all things new,
5 The whole creation groans, Build up this ruined earth.

And waits to hear that voice Restore our faded paradise.

That shall restore her comeliness, Creation's second birth.

And make her wastes rejoice. 6 Come, for creation groans.

6 Come, Lord and wipe away

!
Impatient of thy stay,
The curse, the sin, the stain. Worn out with these long years of ill,

And make this blighted world of ours These ages of delay.

Thine own fair world again. 7 Come, and begin thy reign
Of everlasting peace;
1 Come, Lord! and tarry not; Come, take the kingdom to thyself,
Bring the long looked-for day Gi-eat King of righteousness

From the centre to the skies Are the Conqueror's native right;
Wakes above, beneath, around. Thrones and powers before him fall.
All creation's harmonies.

See Jehovah's banner furled.
Sheathed his sword, he speaks— 'tis done; 2 Hasten, Lord ! the promised hour;
And the kingdoms of this world Come in glory and in power
Are the kingdoms of his Son. Still thy foes are unsubdued;
Nature sighs to be renew'd ;

3 " He shall reign from pole to pole Time has nearly reach'd its sum
With illimitable sway; All things with thy bride say " Come
He shall reign when, like a scroll, Jesus! whom all worlds adore,
Yonder heavens have passed away Come, and reign for evermore;

To us who on thy name attend, And breathe my life out sweetly there.
That we this mortal life may live
Regardful of our journey's end.
733
1 The hour of my departure 's come;
2 Teach us to know that Jesus died I hear the voice that calls me home;
And rose again our souls to save; At last, O Lord ! let trouble cease.
Teach us to take him as our guide, And let thy servant die in peace.
Our help from childhood to the grave.
2 The race appointed I have run.
3 Then shall not death with terror come, The combat 's o'er, the prize is won
But welcome as a bidden guest. And now my witness is on high.
The herald of a better home, And now my record 's in the sky.
The messenger of peace and rest.
3 Not in mine innocence I trust;
732 I bow before thee in the dust;
1 Why should we start and fear to die? And through my Saviour's blood alone
What timorous worms we mortals are! I look for mercy at thy throne.
Death is the gate of endless joy,
And yet we dread to enter there, 4 I leave the world without a tear.
Save the friends I held so dear;
for
2 The pains, the groans and dying strife To heal their sorrows, Lord descend, !

Fright our approaching souls away. And to the friendless prove a Friend.
Still we shrink back again to life.
Fond of our prison and our clay. 5 I come, I come, at thy command
I give my spirit to thy hand ;

3 Oh, if my Lord would come and meet, Stretch forth thine evei'lasting arms,
Mysoul would stretch her wings in haste, And shield me in the last alarms.
Fly fearless through death's iron gate.
Nor feel the terrors as she passed. 6 The hour of my departure's come;
I hear the voice that calls me home;
4 Jesus can make a dying bed Now, O my God! let trouble cease;
Feel soft as downy pillows are, Now let thy servant die iu peace.

1 So fades the lovely, blooming flower, 4 Asleep in Jesus ! oh, for me
P^'rall smiling solace of an hour; May such a blissful refuge be;

So soon our transient comforts fly, Securely shall my ashes lie.

And pleasure only blooms to die. Waiting the summons from on high.

2 Is there no kind, no lenient art 736

To heal the anguish of the heart? 1 How blest the righteous when he dies,
Spirit of grace ! be ever nigh, Wlien sinks a weary soul to rest
Thy comforts are not made to die. How mildly beam the closing eyes
How gently heaves th' expiring breast!
3 Then gentle patience smiles on pain.
And dying liope revives again ;
2 So fades a summer cloud away
Hope wipes the tear from sorrow's eye So sinks the gale when storms are o'er;

And faith points upward to the sky. So gently shuts the eye of day
So dies a wave along the shore.

From whicli none ever wakes to weep; A calm which life nor death destroys;
A calm and undisturbed repose. And naught disturbs that peace profound
Unbroken by the last of foes. Which Ills unfettered soul enjoys.

2 Asleep in Jesus! oh how sweet 4 Farewell, conflicting hopes and fears,

To be for such a slumber meet Where lightsand shades alternate dwell
With holy confidence to sing How bright th' unchanging morn appears
That death has lost his venom'd sting! Farewell, inconstant world, farewell

3 Asleep in Jesus! peaceful rest. 5 Life's labor done, as sinks the clay.
Whose waking is supremely blest; Light from its load the spirit flies;

No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour While lieaven and earth combine to say,
That manifests the Saviour's power. "How blest the righteous when he dies!"

"Sweet is the savor of their names, I give my mortal interest up,
And soft their sleeping-bed. And make my God my aU.

2 "They die in Jesus, and are blessed

744
How kindtheir slumbers are,
1 Why do we mourn departing friends
From sufferings and from sins released, Or shake at death's alarms?
And freed from every snare. 'Tis but the voice tliat Jesus sends
To call them to his arms.
3 "Far from this world of toil and strife.
They 're present with the Lord 2 Are we not tending upward too
Tlie labors of their mortal life
As fast as time can move?
End in a large reward." Nor should we wish the hours more slow
To keep us from our love.
743
1 Teach me the measure of my days, 3 Why should we tremble to convey
Thou Maker of my frame! Their bodies to the tomb?
I would survey narrow space,
life's There the dear flesh of Jesus lay,
And learn how frail I am. And left a long perfume.

2 A span is all that we can boast, 4 The gravesof all the saints he blessed,
An inch or two of time; And softened every bed
Man is but vanity and dust Where should the dying members rest
In all his flower and prime. But with their dying Head?

3 See the vain race of mortals move 5 Thence he arose, ascended high,
Like shadows o'er the plain. And showed our feet the way
They rage and strive, desire and love, Up to the Lord our flesh shall fly
But all their noise is vain. At the great rising day.

4 What should I wish or wait for, then, 6 Then let the last loud trumpet sound,
From creatures, earth and dust? And bid our kindred rise;
They make our expectations vain, Awake, ye nations under ground;
And disappoint our trust. Ye saints, ascend the skies.

The vital spark shall lie The trumpet's quickening sound

2 There, low before his glorious throne. 3 Shall aught beguile us on the road
Adoring saints and angels fall. While we are traveling back to God?
And with delightful worship own For strangers into life we come.
His smile their bliss, their heaven, their all. And dying is but going home.

3 Immortal glories crown his head. 4 To dwell with God, to feel his love,
While tuneful hallehijiilis rise, Is till- full heaven enjoyed alxivo.
And love ami joy and triumph spread And the sweet expectation now
Through all th' assemblies of the skies. Is the young dawn of heaven below.

1 O HAPPY saints, who dwell in light And now their souls begin to prove
And walk witli Jesns clothed in white, The heights and depths of Jesus' love.
Safe landed on that peaceful shore 4 He cheers them with eternal smile;
Where pilgrims meet to part no more. They sing hosannas all the while;
2 Released from sin and toil and grief, Or, overwhelined with raptui'e sweet,
Death was their gate to endless life; Sink down adoring at his feet.
An opened cage to let them fly 5 Ah, Lord with tardj' steps I creep.
!

And build their happy nest on high. And sometimes sing and sometimes weep;
3 And now they range the heavenly plains, Yet strip me of this house of clay,
And sing their hymns in melting strains; And I will sing as loud as they.

I shall behold thy blissful face. And flesh and sin no more control
And stand complete in righteousness. The sacred pleasures of the soul.

To lead us on to thine abode. 3 "We've no abiding city here."

For all our toil while on the road. Let not the world our rest aijpear,

The reach of these inferior things. It shines with everlasting light.

2 Oh for a sight, a blissful sight. 5 O sweet abode of peace and love

Of our almighty Father's throne: Where pilgrims freed from toil are blest
There sits the Saviour, crowned with light, Had I the pinions of the dove,
Clothed in a body like our own. I 'd llee to thee, and be at rest.

3 Adoring saints around him stand. C But hush, my soul, nor dare repine;
And thrones and powers before him fall; The time my God appoints is best;
The God shines gracious through the man. While here, to do his will be mine.

The earth and sea are passed away, Infinite day excludes the night,

2 From the third heaven, where God resides. 2 There everlasting spring abides,

The new Jerusalem comes down, Death, like a narrow sea, divides
Adorned with shining grace. This heav'nly land from ours.

And the bright armies sing: Stand dressed in living green
" Mortals,behold the sacred seat Soto the Jews old Canaan stood.

Of your descending King. While Jordan rolled between.

Removes his blest abode- To cross this narrow sea.
Men, the dear objects of his grace. And linger, shiv'ring, on the brink,
And he the loving God. And fear to launch away.

5 " His own soft hand shall wipe the tears 5 Oh, could we make our doubts remove.
From every weeping eye. These gloomy doubts that rise.

And pains and groans and griefs and fears, And see the Canaan that we love
And death itself, shall die." With un beclouded eyes,

6 How long, dear Saviour! oh how long (i Could we but climb where Moses stood.
Shall this bright hour delay? And view the landscape o'er.

Unspealiable, unknown. And scatters night away.

In shining ranks they move. Can reach that healthful shore;
And drink immortal vigor in Sickness and sorrow, pain and death.

And grief no more complains;

Brief sorrow, short-lived care; Mine eyes their vigils keep;
The life that knows "no ending. For very love, beholding
The tearless life, is there; Thy happy name, they weep;
Oh. happy retribution! The mention of thy glory
Short toil, eternal rest; Is unction to the breast.
For mortals and for sinners, And medicine in sickness,
A
mansion with the blest. And love and life and rest.

2 There grief is turned to pleasure- 2 O one, O only mansion

Such pleasure as below O Paradise of joy
No human voice can utter, Where tears are ever banished
No human heart can know; And smiles have no alloy.
And after fleshl.y scandal. The Lamb is all thy splendor,
And after this world's night, The Crucified thy praise;
And after storm and whirlwind, His laud and benediction
Is calm and joy and light. Thy ransomed people raise.

And life in fullest glow ;
The home of God's elect!
And there the light is golden, O sweet and blessed country,
And milk and honey flow; That eager hearts expect!

1 With songs and honors sounding loud 1 Good is the Lord, the heavenly King,
Address the Lord on high ;
Who makes the earth his care,
Over the heavens he spread his cloud, Visits the pastures every spring.

And waters veil the sky. And bids the grass appear.

2 He sends his showers of blessing down 2 The clouds, like rivers raised on high,
To cheer the plains below Pour out, at his command,
He makes the grass the mountains crown, Their watery blessings from the sky,
And corn in valleys grow. To cheer the thirsty land.

3 His steady counsels change the face 3 The softened ridges of the field

Of the declining year; Permit the corn to spring,

He bids the sun cut short his race. The valleys rich provision yield,
And wintry days appear. And cheerful lab'rers sing.

4 His hoary frost, his fleecy snow, 4 The little hills on every side
Descend and clothe the ground; Rejoice at falling showers;
The liquid streams forbear to flow, The meadows, dressed in all their pride.

In icy fetters bound. Perfume the air with flowers.

5 He sends his word and melts the snow. 5 The barren clods, refreshed with rain,
The fields no longer mourn ;
Promise a joyful crop;
He calls the warmer gales to blow. The parching grounds look green again,
And bids the spring i-eturn. And raise the reaper's hope.

C The changing wind, the flying cloud. 6 The various months thy goodness crowns;
Obey his mighty word How bounteous are thy ways
With songs and honors sounding loud The bleating flocks spread o'er the downs,
Praise ye the sovereign Lord. And shepherds shout thy praise.

1 Great God indulge my humble claim,
! And Satan trembles when he sees
Thou art my hope, my joy, my rest; The weakest saint upon his knees.
The glories that compose thy name
4 Have you no words? Ah! think again;
Stand all engaged to make me blest.
Words flow apace when you complain.
2 Thou great and good, thou just and wise And fill your fellow-creature's ear
Thou art my Father and my God With the sad tale of all your care,
And I am thine by sacred ties,
5 Were half the breath thus vainly spent
Thy son, thy servant, bought with blood.
To Heaven in supplication sent.
3 With early feet I love t' appear Your cheerful song would oftener be,
Among thy saints, and seek thy face "Hear what the Lord has done for me."
Oft have I seen thy glory there,
And felt the power of sovereign grace.

1 Where high the heavenly temple stands.
4 I '11 lift my hands, I '11 raise my voice. The house of God not made with hands,
While I have breath to pray or praise; A great High Priest our nature wears.
This work shall make my heart rejoice. The Guardian of mankind appears.
And spend the remnant of my days.
2 Though now ascended up on high,
845 He bends on earth a brother's eye;
1 What various hindrances we meet Partaker of the human name.
In coming to a mercy-seat! He knows the frailty of our frame.
Yet who that knows the worth of prayer
3 In every pang that rends the heart
But wishes to be often there?
The Man of sorrows had a part;
2 Prayer makes the darkened cloud withdraw. He sympathizes with our grief.
Prayer climbs the ladder Jacob saw. And to the sufierer sends relief.
Gives exercise to faith and love,
4 With boldness, therefore, at ^.lie throne.
Brings every blessing from above.
Let us make all our sorrows known.
3 Restraining prayer, we cease to fight; And ask the aid of heavenly power
Prayer makes the Christian's armor bright; To help us in the evil hour.

1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire, 3 My thoughts lie open to the Lord
Unuttered or expressed Before they 're formed within.
Tlie motion of a liidden fire And ere my lips pronounce the word
Tliat trembles in tiie breast. He knows the sense I mean.

2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh, 4 Oh, wondrous knowledge, deep and high ;

The falling of a tear, Where can a creature hide?

The upward glancing of an eye Within thy circling arms I lie,

When none but God is near. Beset on every side.

3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech 5 So thy grace surround me

let still.

That infant lips can try And like a bulwarlt prove

Prayer the sublimest strains that reach To guard my soul froin every ill.

The Majesty on high. Secured by sovereign love.

4 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice

Returning from his ways,
853
While angels in their songs rejoice, 1 Far from the world, O Lord ! I flee.

And say, " Behold, he prays." Prom strife and tumult far,
Froin scenes where Satan wages still

5 Prayer the Christian's vital breath,

is
His most successful war.
The Christian's native air,
His watchword at the gates of death; 2 The calm retreat, the silent shade,
He enters heaven with prayer. With prayer and praise agree;
And seem, by thy sweet bounty, made
For those who follow thee.

In vain my soul would try And grace her mean abode.
To shun thy presence. Lord! or tlee Oh, with what peace and joy and love
The notice of thine eye. She then communes with God

2 Thine all-surrounding sight surveys 4 Author and Guardian of my life,

My rising and my rest, Sweet Source of light divine.
My public walks, my private ways, And all harmonious names in one,
And secrets of my breast. Blest Saviour! thou art mine.

RETREAT. L. M.

855
1 From every stormy wind that blows, Though sundered far, by faith they meet
From every swelling tide of woes, Around one common mercy-seat.
There is a calm, a sure retreat;
'Tis found beneath the mercy-seat. 4 There, there on eagle wings we soar,
And time and sense seem all no more.
2 There isa place where Jesus sheds And heav'n comes down our souls to greet,
The oil of gladness on our heads— And glory crowns the mercj'-seat.
A place than all besides more sweet;
It is the blood-bought mercy-seat. 5 Oh, let mj- hand forget her skill.
My tongue be silent, cold and still.
3 There isa scene where spirits blend, This bounding heart forget to beat,
Where friend holds fellowship with friend; If I forget the mercy-seat.

When storms and tempests rise.

If thou, my God! art near; Nor I his praises sung.
Thy grace can raise my comforts high, 5 But God—his name be ever blessed—
And banish every fear.
Has set my spirit free.

Thy constant aid impart; Nor turned his heart from me.

From this divine retreat; For ever to behold thy face.

Still let me trust thy power and love, And worship at thy feet;
And dwell beneath thy feet.

865 When storms of trouble blow.

1 Now shall my solemn vows be paid And in thy tabernacle hide,
To that almighty power Secure from every foe.

Who heard the long requests I made 3 Then leave me not when griefs assail
In my distressful hour. And earthly comforts flee

2 My lips and cheerful heart prepare When father, mother, kindred, fail,

To make his mercies known My God remember me.

Come, ye who fear my God, and hear 4 Wait on the Lord, with courage wait;
The wonders he has done. My soul, disdain to fear;

Send down thy radiance from above; Will furnish all we need to ask.
And to our inmost hearts convey Room to deny ourselves, a road
The Holy Spirit's cloudless ray. To bring us daily nearer God.

But be it joy or sorrow.
Be thou a wall of light.

From day to day we cast, Where'er our steps may move,
To thee, with firm affiance, The staff of thy sure promise,
Would cleave from first to last; The shield of thy true love.

The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide; !

When other helpers fail and comforts flee,

Help of the helpless! oli abide with me.

2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day

Earth's joys grow dim; its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
thou who changest not! abide witli rae.

3 Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word

But as thou dwell'st with thy disciples, Lord!
Familiar, condescending, patient, free.
Come, not to sojourn, but abide, with me.

4 Come not in terrors, as the King of kings.

But kind and good, with healing in thy wings;
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea;
Come, Friend of sinners thus abide with me.
!

5 Thou on my head in early youth didst smile;

And though rebellious and perverse meanwhile,
Thou hast not left me, oft as I left thee:
On to the close, O Lord ! abide with me.

6 Ineed thy presence every passing hour;

What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, oh abide witli me!

7 I fear no foe, with (hee at hand to bless;

Illshave no weight, and tears no bitterness;
Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory?
1 triumph still, if thou abide with me.

8 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes,

Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies;
Heaven's moriung breaks and earth's vain shadows tiee:
In life, in death, O Lord! abide with rae.

For rest the night, All peaceful lie;

Slumber sweet thy mercy send us. Do not thou our God forsake us.
Holy dreams and hopes attend us, But to reign in glory take us
This livelong night. With thee on high.

Whether by night or daj', 1 There is no sorrow. Lord! too light
Thy Spirit came and left that gift, To bring in prayer to thee
There is no anxious care too slight
And went upon his way.
To wake thy sympathy.

2 Thou who hast trod the thorny road
More innocent than mine!
Wilt share each small distress;
How many souls more worthy far
The love which bore the greater load
Of that sweet touch of thine!
Will not refuse the less.

It is thy boast to come. But meets tliine ear divine;
The glory of thy light to And And every cross grows light beneath
In darkest spots a homo. The shadow. Lord! of thine.

6 How will they die, how will they die. 4 Life's ills without, sin's strife witliin,

How bear the cross of grief. The heart would overflow.

Who have not yet the light of faith, But for that love which died for sin,

The courage of belief? Tliat love which wept with woe.

Thy beautiful and shining face
I see not, though so near; 3 And when, dear Saviour! I kneel down
The sweetness of thy soft low voice Morning and night to pray'r.
I am too deaf to hear. Something there is within my heart
Which tells me thou art there:

With pressure light and mild, Thy pray'r is then for me;
To check me, as my mother did And when I sleep, thou, sleeping not,
When I was but a child Dost watch me lovingly.

When Jesus was here among men.
How he called little children as lambs to his fold,
I should like to have been with them then.

2 I wish that his hands had been placed on head, my

That his arms had been thrown around me.
And that I might have seen his kind look when he said,
" Let the little ones come unto me."

3 Yet stillto his footstool in prayer I may go,

And ask for a share in his love;
And if I thus earnestly seekhim below,
I shall see him and hear him above,
4 In that beautiful place he is gone to prepare
For all who are washed and forgiv'n;
And many dear children are gathering there,
"For of such is the kingdom of heav'n."
5 I long for the joys of that glorious time.
The sweetest and brightest and best.
When the dear little children of every clime
Shall crowd to his arms and be blest.

1 Our God stands firm, a rock and tow'r, Who is this wondrous Chief
A shield when danger presses; That brings this glad relief?
A ready help In ev'ry hour The field of battle boasts
When doubt or pain distresses Christ Jesus, Lord of hosts,
For our malignant foe Still conq'ring and to conquer,
Unswerving aims his blow;
3 Then, Lord! arise; lift up thine arm,
His fearful arms the while
With mighty succor stay us;
Dark pow'r and darker guile;
Oh, turn aside the deadly harm
His hidden craft is matchless.
Wiien Satan would betray us.
That, rescued by thy hand.
2 Our strength is weakness in the flght, In triumph we may stand.
Our courage soon defection ;
And round thy footstool crowd
But comes a Warrior clad in might, In joy to sing aloud
A Prince of God's election High praise to our Redeemer.

Lord God, our Saviour! to thy praise; In nobler building bear a part,
make thy gracious presence known

While now we lay its corner-stone. 4 Where every polished stone shall be
A human soul won back to thee;

Deign by thy Spirit to appear; Tlie chief and precious Corner-stone.
On all its walls salvation write,
From corner-stone to topmost height. 5 So, when our toil is o'er at last.
All labor in both temples passed.
3 And when this temple "made with hands' Oh, may it then by works be shown
Upon its firm foundation stands, That faith hath laid this corner-stone.

1 There is a land of pure delight. Not Jordan's stream nor death's cold
Where saints immortal reign ;
Should fright us from the shore.
Infinite day excludes the night,
And pleasures banish pain. 970 See Hymn 783.

2 There everlasting spring abides, 1 On Jordan's stormy banks I stand.

And never-withering flowers; And cast a wishful eye
Death, like a narrow sea, divides To Canaan's fair and happy land.
This heavenly land from ours. Where my possessions lie.
3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood 2 Oh, the transporting, rapturous scene
Stand dressed in living green ! That rises to my sight
So to the Jews old Canaan stood. Sweet fields arrayed in living green,
While Jordan rolled between. And rivers of delight.

4 But timorous mortals start and shrink, 3 When shall I reach that happy place,
To cross this narrow sea. And be for ever blest?
And linger, shivering, on the brink. When shall I see my Father's face.

And fear to launch away. And in his bosom rest?

5 Oh, could we inake our doubts remove, 4'Filled with delight, my raptured soul
Those gloomy doubts that rise, Would here no longer stay
And see the Canaan that we love Though Jordan's waves around me roll.
With unbeclouded eyes, Fearless I 'd launch away.

" Go, work to-day "?

2 Come, labor on ;

The laborers are few, the field is wide;

|

New stations must be filled, and blanks supplied; |

From voices distant far or |

near at home
The call is "Come."

8 Come, labor on ;

The enemy is watching, night and day,

|

To sow the tares, to snatch the seed away; |

While we in sleep our duty have forgot, |

He slumbered not.

4 Come, labor on ;

Away with gloomy doubt and faithless fear! |

No arm so weak but may do service here; |

By feeblest agents can our |

God fulfill

His righleous will.

5 Come, labor on ;

No time for rest till glows the |

western sky,
While the long shadows o'er our pathway lie. |

And a glad sound comes with the setting sun, |

"Servants, well done!"

6 Come, labor on ;

The toil is pleasant, the re- |

ward is sure;
Blessed are those who to tlu' end endure; |

How full their joy, how (Icc]) their rest shall |

be,

U Lord! with thou!

1 Birds have their quiet nest, |

Foxes their holes, and man liis peaceful beci |

All creatures have their rest: |

But Jesus had not where to lay his head. |

2 And yet he |
came to give
The weary and tlie iieavy laden |
rest,
To bid the sinner live.
|

And soothe our griefs to |

slumber on his breast.

3 What, then, am I, my God, |

Permitted thus the path of peace to tread? |

Peace purchased by the blood |

Of him who had not where to lay his head |

4 I, who once made him grieve,

|

I, who once bid his gentle spirit mourn. |

Whose hand es- sayed to weave |

For his meek brow the |

cruel crown of thorn !

5 Oh, whyshould I have peace? |

Why? but for that on- changed, undying love ]

Which would not, could not cease. |

Until it made me heir of joys above |

6 Yes; but for pardoning grace,

1

I feel I never should in glory see|

The brightness of that face |

That once was pale and agonized |

for me.

7 Let the birds |

seek their nest.
Foxes their holes, and man his peaceful bed; |

Come, Saviour! in my breast |

Deign to repose thine oft-rejected head. |

8 Come, give me rest, and take |

The only rest on earth thou lov'st, within |

A heart that for thy sake |

Lies bleeding, broken, penitent for sin. |

1 He leadeth me! oh, blessed thought, 3 Lord ! I would clasp thy hand in mine,
Ob, words with heav'nly comfort fraught Nor ever murmur nor repine.
Whate'er 1 do, where'er I be, Content, whatever lot I see.
Still 't is God's hand that leadeth me. Since 't is my God that leadeth me.
He leadeth me, he leadeth me He leadeth me, etc.
By his own hand he leadeth me;
His faithful foll'wer I would be,
For by his hand he leadeth me.
2 Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom, 4 And when my task on earth is doue.
Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom, When by thy grace the victory 's won.
By waters still, o'er troubled sea,— E'en death's cold wave I will not flee.
Still 'tis his liand that leadeth me! Since God through Jordan leadeth me.
He leadeth me, etc. He leadeth me, etc.
