PREFACE.
The Compilers of Hymns Ancient and Modern, for use in the Services
of the Church, desire to take the opportunity, afforded by the publication of
this edition with accompanying Tunes, of expressing their deep thankful
ness for the very large amount of kind and valuable assistance which they
have received in the compilation hoth of the words and music. Original
contributions, translations, careful criticisms, and thoughtful suggestions,
as well as permission to make extracts from their published works, have
been freely given by many who, they well know, will neither expect nor
desire to receive more than this general but most hearty assurance of their
gratitude. But to a few (especially those whose names cannot but be
linked to their tunes) their thanks must be given separately ; to the re
vered author of the Christian Year, for leave to make extracts from it,
and for Hymns 52, 119, and 212, (originally printed in the Salisbury
Hymn-book) as well as for the use of unpublished translations, and for
much careful criticism ; to Miss Catherine Winkworth, for her kind per
mission to print Hymns 112, 171, 191, 208, 233, and 238, from the Lyra
Germanica ; to Mr. Novello, for his generous permission to make extracts
from the Hymnal Noted ; to the Rev. Thomas Helmore, not only for his
past labours, of which they have reaped so much fruit, but also for his
friendly co-operation in this work ; to the Rev. J. B. Dykes, Precentor of
Durham Cathedral, for several new tunes, especially that to the " Dies irse,"
and for much valuable assistance ; to the Rev. Sir Frederick A. Gore
Ouseley, Bart., Professor of Music in the University of Oxford, and Pre
centor of Hereford Cathedral, for several new tunes, and for his kind
revision and approval of the larger portion of the book (the unbarmi

tune may be written on paper. In that which is here adopted, for typo
graphical reasons, the dotted semibreve is necessary ; but in performance
it must not be so fully sustained as to impede the flow of the melody.
On the other hand, a closing minim may be somewhat lengthened.
Fifthly, as to the number and arrangement of the tunes. The various
wants and capabilities of choirs and congregations have been carefully con
sidered iu this matter. Some well-known tunes will be found for every
season, as well as those which are new, or gathered for the first time from
the rich stores of German music. Each Hymn has been arranged to that
tune which seemed to be the most appropriate for it ; and when the same
tune is used for more than one Hymn, it will be found that there is some
correspondence in the character of the words or seasons. A Lenten tune,
for example, is never given for Eastertide, but may be suitably used on a
Friday (Nos. 29 and 79). The Hymn which announces the first Advent
of Christ (No. 35), and that which tells of His entry into Jerusalem on
Palm Sunday (No. 87), have as really, though less obviously, somewhat in
common, and are therefore fitly arranged to the same tune. The "joy of
Harvest " and that of Easter are not so unconnected as to make the same
tune inappropriate both to Hymn 110 and Hymn 203. And so of many
other hymns. To this, as to all other parts of their work, there has been
considerable thought given ; and they venture to hope that, notwithstanding
many imperfections, the result of their united efforts will be acceptable to
their brethren in Christ, and promote, in some degree, the greater glory
cf God.

" I mj-self will awake right early."
AWAKE, my soul, and with the sun
Thy daily stage of duty run ;
Shake off dull sloth, and early rise
To pay thy morning sacrifice.
Redeem thy mis-spent time that's past,
And live this day as if thy last ;
Improve thy talent with due care,
For the great day thyself prepare.
Let all thy converse he sincere,
Thy conscience as the noon-day clear ;
Think how all-seeing God thy ways
And all thy secret thoughts surveys.
By influence of the Light divine
Let thy own light in good works shine ;
Reflect all heaven's propitious rays
In ardent love and cheerful praise.

WAKE and lift up thyself, my heart, I would not wake, nor rise again,
And -with the angels bear thy part, E'en heaven itself I would disdain,
Who all night long unwearied sing Wert Thou not there to be enjoyed,
Glory to the Eternal King. And I in hymns to be employed.
I wake, I wake, ye heavenly choir, Heaven is, dear Lord, where'er Then
May your devotion me inspire, O never then from me depart ; [art,
That I like you my age may spend, For to my soul 'tis hell to be
Like you may on my God attend. But for one moment without Thee.
May I like you in God delight, Lord, I my vows to Thee renew,
Have all day long my God in sight, Scatter my sins as morning dew ;
Perform like you my Maker's will, Guard my first springs of thought and
0 may I never more do ill. And with Thyself my spirit fill, [will,
Had I your wings to heaven I'd fly, Direct, control, suggest this day
But God shall that defect supply, All I design, or do, or say ;
And my soul, winged with warm desire, That all my powers with all their might
Shall all day long to heaven aspire. In Thy sole glory may unite.
Doxology to be sung at the end of each Part.

" His compassions fail not : they are new every morning."
NEW every morning is the love The trivial round, the common task
Our wakening and uprising prove ; Will furnish all we need to ask,
Through sleep and darkness safely Room to deny ourselves, a road
brought, To bring us daily nearer God.
Restored to life, and power, and thought
Only, 0 Lord, in Thy dear love
New mercies, each returning day, Fit us for perfect rest above ;
Hover around us while we pray ; And help us, this and every day,
New perils past, new sins forgiven, To live more nearly as we pray.
New thoughts of God, new hopes of
heaven.
If on our daily course our mind
Be set to hallow all we find,
New treasures still, of countless price,
God will provide for sacrifice.

NOW that the daylight fills the sky So we, when this day's w6rk is o'er
We lift our hearts t6 God on high. And shades of night return once more,
That He, in all we d<5 or say, Our path of trial safely trod,
Would keep us free from harm to-day. Shall give the glory t6 our God.
May He restrain our t6ngues from strife, All praise to God the Father be ;
And shield from anger's din our life, All praise, Eternal Son, to Thee ;
And guard with watchful care our eyes Whom with the Spirit w6 adore
From earth's absorbing -vanities. For ever and for Evermore.
O may our inmost hearts be pure,
From thoughts of folly kept secure,
And pride of sinful flesh subdued
Through sparing use of daily food.

May love enwrap our mortal frame, Our bodies keep from perils free,
And others catch the living flame. And give our souls true peace in Thee.

Till we a holy death attain
And everlasting glory gain.

For all the blessings of the light ;
And may sweet sleep mine eyelids close,
Keep me, 0 keep me, King of kings, Sleep that shall me more vigorous make
Under Thine own Almighty wings. To serve my God when I awake.
When in the night I sleepless lie,
Forgive me, Lord, for Thy dear Son, My soul with heavenly thoughts supply ;
The ill that I this day have done, Let no ill dreams disturb my rest,

No powers of darkness me molest.

Praise God from Whom all blessings
Teach me to live, that I may dread flow;

Teach me to die, that so I may Praise Him above, angelic host;
Rise glorious at the awful Day. Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

It is not night if Thou be near ; Have spurned to-day the voice divine,
O may no earth-born cloud arise Now, Lord, the gracious work begin ;
To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes. Let him no more lie down in sin.
Watch by the sick ; enrich the poor
When the soft dews of kindly sleep With blessings from Thy boundless
My wearied eyelids gently steep, store ;
Be my last thought, how sweet to rest Be every mourner's sleep to-night,
For ever on my Saviour's breast. Like infant's slumbers, pure and light.
Abide with me from morn till eve, Come near and bless us when we wake,
For without Thee I cannot live ; Ere through the world our way we take ;
Abide with me when night is nigh, Till in the ocean of Thy love
For without Thee I dare not die. We lose ourselves in Heaven above.

Through cloud afid sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
I fear no foe with Thee at hand to bless ;
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness ;
Where is death's sting, where, grave, thy victory ?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.
Hold Thou Thy Cross before my closing eyes ;

" Let the lifting up of my hands be an evening sacrifice."
THE sun is sinking fast, Save that His Will be done,
The daylight dies ; Whate'er betide ;
Let love awake, and pay Dead to herself, and dead
Her evening sacrifice. In Him to all beside.
As Christ upon the Cross Thus would I live ; yet now
His Head inclined, Not I, but He
And to His Father's hand3 In all His power and love
His parting soul resigned ; Henceforth alive in me.
So now herself my soul One Sacred Trinity !
Would wholly give One Lord Divine I
Into His sacred charge, May I be ever His,
In Whom all spirits live ; And He for ever mine.

" The Lord ia my Light,"
SWEET Saviour, bless us ere we go ;
Thy word into our minds instil ;
And make our lukewarm hearts to glow
With lowly love and fervent will.
Through life's long day and death's dark night
O gentle Jesus, be our Light.
The day is gone, its hours have run.
And Thou hast taken count of all,
The scanty triumphs grace hath won,
The broken vow, the frequent fall.
Through life's long day and death's dark night,
0 gentle Jesus, be our Light.
Grant us, dear Lord, from evil wayti
True absolution and release ;
And bless us, more than in past days,
With purity and inward peace.
Through life's long day and death's dark night,
O gentle Jesus, be our Light.
Do more than pardon ; give us joy,
Sweet fear, and sober liberty,
And simple hearts without alloy
That only long to be like Thee.
Through life's long day and death's dark night,
0 gentle Jesus, be our Light.
Labour is sweet, for Thou hast toiled ;
And care is light, for Thou hast cared ;
Ah ! never let our works be soiled
With strife, or by deceit ensnared.
Through life's long day and death's dark night,
0 gentle Jesus, be our Light.
For all we love, the poor, the sad,
The sinful, unto Thee we call ;
0 let Thy mercy make us glad :
Thou art our Jesus, and our All.
Through life's long day and death's dark night,
0 gentle Jesus, be our Light Amen.

Morning.
ON this day, the first of days, Holy Jesus, may I be
God the Father's Name we praise ; Dead and buried here with Thee ;
Who, creation's Fount and Spring, And, by love inflamed, arise
Did the world from darkness bring. Unto Thee a sacrifice.
On this day th' Eternal Son Thou Who dost all gifts impart,
Over death His triumph won ; Shine, Sweet Spirit, in my heart ;
On this day the Sphut came Best of gifts Thyself bestow ;
With His gifts of living flame. Make me burn Thy love to know.
Oh ! that fervent love to-day God, the Blessed Three in One,
May in every heart have sway, Dwell within my heart alone ;
Teaching us to praise aright Thou dost give Thyself to me,
God the Source of life and light. May I give myself to Thee.
Father, Who didst fashion me
Image of Thyself to be,
Fill me with Thy love divine,
Let my every thought be Thine.

GREAT God, Who, hid from mortal Too long, alas ! it still delays ;
Bight . It lingers yet, that day of days ;
Dost dwell in unapproachfed light, Our mortal strife and toil must cease
Before Whose presence angels bow Before we win its heavenly peace.
With faces veiled, in homage low ;
Then from its fleshly bonds set free,
Awhile in darkness we remain, The soul shall fly, 6 God, to Thee ;
And round us yet are sin and pain ; To see Thee, love Thee, and adore,
Bnt soon the everlasting day Her blissful task for evermore.
Shall chase our shades of night away.
For Thou hast promised, gracious Lord, Great Trinity, our hearts prepare,
A day of gladness and reward ; The fulness of Thy joy to share;

By brightest sun at noontide clear. And gain eternal light above. Amen.

Writ on the firmament above But Thou art evermore the same,
In glittering orbs of fire. No change Thy mercy knows.

The starry hosts adorn the sky And they, eternal life who seek,
In ordered ranks of light. Eternal life shall share.
But e'en that glorious sun must set, All praise, all glory be ascribed

" The day of the Lobd will come as a thief in the night."
THAT day of wrath, that dreadful day,
When heaven and earth shall pass away,
What power shall he the sinner's stay ?
How shall he meet that dreadful day ?
When shrivelling, like a parchfed scroll,
The flaming heavens together roll ;
When louder yet, and yet more dread,
Swells the high trump that wakes the dead ;
Oh ! on that day, that wrathful day,
When man to judgment wakes froir clay,
Be Thou, 0 Christ, the sinner's stay
Though heaven and earth shall pass away. Amen.

"Behold He cometh with clonds ; and every eve shall see Him, and thev als > which
pierced Him."
LO ! He comes in clouds descending, Those dear tokens of His Passion
Once for favoured sinners slain ; Still His dazzling Body bears ;
Thousand thousand saints attending Cause of endless exultation
Swell the triumph of his train : To His ransomed worshippers ;
Alleluia ! With what rapture
Christ appears on earth again. Gaze we on those glorious 6cars.
Every eye shall now behold Him Yea, Amen, let all adore Thee,
Robed in dre«dfnl majesty ; High on Thine eternal throne ;
They who set at nought and sold Him, Saviour, take the power and glory :
Pierced and nailed Him to the tree, Claim the kingdoms for Thine own :
Deeply wailing, O come quickly !
Shall the true Messiah see. Alleluia ! Amen.

HAKK the glad sound ! the Saviour He comes, the broken hearts to bind,
comes, The bleeding souls to cure,
The Saviour promised long : And with the treasures of His grace
Let every heart prepare a throne, To bless the humble poor.
And every voice a song.

In Satan's bondage held ; And heaven's eternal arches ring
The gates of brass before Him burst, With Thy beloved Name. Amen.

WHILE shepherds watched their " The heavenly Babe you there shall

The angel of the Lord came down, All meanly wrapped in swathiDg bands,

Had seized their troubled mind ; Appeared a shining throng

In their threefold order one ; And extol our God and King ;

Doth thy golden crown proclaim, Slain for Him Who bled for thee;
Not of flowers that fade away First like Him in dying hour
Weave we this thy crown to-day. Witness to Almighty power;
Bright the stones, which hruise thee, First to follow where He trod

Sprinkled with thy life-blood's stream; First; but in thy footsteps press
Stars around thy sainted head Saints and martyrs numberless.
Never could such radiance shed.

Sparkles with unearthly glow ; Glory to the Holy Ghost,
Like an angel's is thy face Praised by men and heavenly host.
Beaming with celestial grace. Amen.

" The invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being
understood by the things that are made."
THERE is a boot, who runs may read, The moon above, the church below,
Which heavenly truth imparts, A wondrous race they run ;
And all the lore its scholars need, But all their radiance, all their glow,
Pure eyes and Christian hearts. Each borrows of its Sun.
The works of God, above, below, Th* Saviour lends the light and heat
Within ns and around, That crown His holy hill ;
Are pages in that book to show The saints, like stars, around His seat
How God Himself is found. Perform their courses still.
The glorious sky, embracing all, Thou, Who hast given me eyes to see
Is like the Maker's love, [small And love this sight so fair,
Wherewith encompassed, great and Give me a heart to find out Thee,
In peace and order move. And read Thee everywhere. Amen.

" Read your heart and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God."
ONCE more the solemn season calls In sorrow true then let us pray
A holy fast to keep ; To our offended God,
And now within the temple walls From us to turn His wrath away
Both priest and people Treep. And stay the uplifted rod.
But vain all outward sign of grief, 0 God, our Judge and Father, deign
And vain the form of prayer, To spare the bruised reed ;
Unless the heart implore relief, We pray for time to turn again,
And penitence be there. For grace to turn indeed.
We smite the breast, we weep in vain, Blest Thkee in One, to Thee we bow ;
In vain in ashes mourn, Vouchsafe us in Thy love,
Unless with penitential pain To gather from these fasts below
The smitten soul be torn. Immortal fruit above. Amen.

devil. And in those days He did eat nothing."
FORTY days and forty nights And if Satan, vexing sore,
Thou wast fasting in the wild ; Flesh or spirit should assail,
Forty days and forty nights Thou, his Vanquisher before,
Tempted, and yet undefiled. Grant we may not faint or fail.
Sunbeams scorching all the day ; So shall we have peace divine ;
Chilly dew-drops nightly shed ; Holier gladness ours shall be ;
Prowling beasts about Thy way ; Round us, too, shall angels shine,
Stones Thy pillow ; earth Thy bed. Such as ministered to Thee.
Shall not we Thy Borrow share, Keep, O keep us, Saviour dear,
And from earthly joys abstain, Ever constant by Thy side ;

Glad with Thee to suffer pain ? At th' eternal Eastertide. Amen.

Upon the tree of scorn The mid-day heavens grow pale ;

With rucking anguish torn. Their Maker's death bewail. .

Oh, hear that awful cry Come, fall before His Cross,
Which pierced His mother's heart, Who shed for us His Blood;
As into God the Fatheii's Hands Who died, the Victim of pure love,
He bade His soiil depart. To make us sons of God.
Earth hears, and trembling quakes Jesu, all praise to Thee,
Around that tree of pain; [burst Our joy and endless rest; [here,
The rocks are rent; the graves are Be Thou our guide while pilgrims
The veil is rent in twain. Our crown amid the blest. Amen.

" Behold the Man."
0 SINNER, lift the eye of faith,
To true repentance turning ;
Bethink thee of the curse of sin,
Its awful guilt discerning ;
Upon the Crucified One look,
And thou shalt read, as in a hook.
What well is worth thy learning.
Look on His Head, that bleeding Head
With crown of thorns surrounded ;
Look on His sacred Hands and Feet '
Wliich piercing nails have wounded ;
See every Limb with scourges rent:
On Him, the Just, the Innocent,
What malice hath abounded I
Tis not alone those Limbs are racked,
But friends too are forsaking ;
And more than all, for thankless man
That tender Heart is aching ;
Oh, fearful was the pain and scorn
By Jesus, Son of Mary, borne,
Their peace for sinners making.
None ever knew such pain before,
Such infinite affliction ;
None ever felt a grief like His
In that dread crucifixion :
For us He bare those bitter throes,
For us those agonizing woes
In oft-renewed infliction.
0 sinner, mark, and ponder well
Sin's awful condemnation;
Think what a sacrifice it cost
To purchase thy salvation ;
Had Jesus never bled and died,
Then what could thee and all betide
But uttermost damnation ?
Lord, give us grace to flee from sin,
And Satan's wiles ensnaring,
And from those everlasting flames
For evil ones preparing.
Jesu, we thank Thee, and entreat

To rest for ever at Thy Feet,
Thy heavenly glory sharing. ^@^i

AT the Cross her station keeping, For His people's sins chastised
Stood the mournful mother weeping, She beheld her Son despised,
Where He hung, the dying Lord ; Scourged, and crowned with thorns
For her soul of joy bereaved entwined ;
Bowed with anguish, deeply grievfed, Saw Him then from judgment taken,
Felt the sharp and piercing sword. And in death by all forsaken,
Oh, how sad and sore distressed Till His Spirit He resigned.
Now was she, that mother bless&d Jesu, may such deep devotion

When she saw the Crucifixion That my heart, fresh ardour gaining

WHEN I survey the wondrous Cross Were the whole realm of nature mine,
On which the Prince of Glory died, That were an offering far too small ;
My richest gain I count but loss, Love so amazing, so divine,
And pour contempt on all my pride. Demands my life, my soul, my all.
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, To Christ, Who won for sinners grace
Save in the Cross of Christ my God ; By bitter grief and anguish sore,

Did God consent to suffer thus, Then may Thy Name by sin of ours
And, oh, shall man repine ? Be never more disgraced.

" Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall."
GO to dark Gethsemane, Calvary's mournful mountain climb ;
Ye that feel the Tempter's power, There, adoring at His Feet,
Your Redeemer's conflict see, Mark that miracle of time,
Watch with Him one bitter hour ; God's own sacrifice complete;
Turn not from His griefs away, " It is finished ;" hear Him cry,
Learn of Jesus Christ to pray. Learn of Jesus Christ to die.
Follow to the judgment-hall,
View the Lord of life arraigned ;
Oh, the wormwood and the gall !
Oh, the pangs His soul sustained !
Shun not suffering, shame, or loss ;
Learn of Ilini to bear the cross.

" And when Joseph had taken the Body, he wrapped It in a clean linen cloth, and laid It
in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out of the rock And there was
Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre."
RESTING from His work to-day So with Thee, till life shall end,
In the tomb the Saviour lay ; I would solemn vigil spend ;
Still He slept, from Head to Feet Let me hew Thee, Lord, a shrine
Shrouded in the winding-sheet, In this rocky heart of mine,
Lying in the rock alone, Where in pure embalmed cell
Hidden by the sealed stone. None but Thou may ever dwell.
Late at even there was seen Myrrh and spices will I bring,
Watching long the Magdalene ; True affection's offering ;
Early, ere the break of day, Close the door from sight and sound
Sorrowful she took her way Of the busy world around;
To the holy garden glade, And in patient watch remain
Where her buried Loud was laid. Till my Lord appear again. Amen.

" O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory ?"
YE choirs of new Jerusalem, Triumphant in His glory now
Your sweetest notes employ, To Him all power is given ;
The Paschal victory to hymn To Him in one communion bow
In strains of holy joy. All saints in earth and heaven.
For Judah's Lion bursts His chains, While we, His soldiers, praise our King,
Crushing the serpent's head ; His mercy we implore,
And cries aloud through death's domains Within His palace bright to bring
To wake the imprisoned dead. And keep us evermore.
All glory to the Father be ;
Devouring depths of hell their prey All glory to the Son;
At His command restore ; All glory, Holt Ghost, to Thee,
His ransomed hosts pursue their way While endless ages rtw.
Where Jesus goes before. Alleluia, Amen.

OSONS and daughters, let us sing !
The King of heaven, the glorious King,
O'er death to-day rose triumphing.
Alleluia !
That Sunday morn, at break of day,
The faithful women went their way
To seek the tomb where Jesus lay.
Alleluia !
An Angel clad in white they see,
Who sat and spake unto the three,
" Your Lord doth go to Galilee."
Alleluia !
That night the Apostles met in fear ;
Amidst them came their Lord most dear,
And said, "My peace be on all here."
Alleluia !
When Didymus the tidings heard,
He doubted if it were the Lord,
Until He came and spake this word :
Alleluia !
" My piercfed Side, O Thomas, see ;
My Hands, my Feet, I show to thee ;
Nor faithless, but believing be."
Alleluia !
No longer Thomas then denied ;
He saw the Feet, the Hands, the Side ;
" Thou art my Lord and God," he cried.
Alleluia !
How blest are they who have not seen,
And yet whose faith hath constant been ;
For they eternal life shall win.
Alleluia !

To God your hearts and voices raise

" The Lord is Kino, and hath put on glorious apparel.'
LIGHT'S glittering morn bedecks the Th' Eleven, when they hear, with speed
sky, To Galilee forthwith proceed,
Heaven thunders forth its victor-cry, That there once more they may behold
The glad earth shouts her triumph high, The Lord's dear Face, as He foretold.
And groaning hell makes wild reply ;
While He, the King, the mighty King,
Despoiling death of all its sting, Part III.
And trampling down the powers of night,
Brings forth His ransomed saints to light, That Easter-tide with joy was bright,
The sun shone out with fairer light,
His tomb of late the threefold guard When, to their longing eyes restored,
Of watch and stone and seal had barred ; The Apostles saw then- risen Lord.
But now, in pomp and triumph high,
He comes from death to victory. He bade them see His Hands, His Side,
Where yet the glorious wounds abide ;
The pains of hell are loosed at last ; O tokens true, which made it plain
The days of mourning now are past ; Their Lord indeed was risen again.
An Angel robed in light hath said,
" The Lord is risen from the dead." Jesu, the King of Gentleness,
Do Thou Thyself our hearts possess,
Part II. That we may give Thee all our days
The tribute of our grateful praise.
The Apostles' hearts were full of pain
For their dear Lord so lately slain,
By rebel servants doomed to die
A death of cruel agony. The following may he sung at the end of each
Part.
With gentle voice the Angel gave O Lord of all, with us abide
The women tidings at the grave ; In this our joyful Easter-tide;
" Fear not, your Master shall ye see, From every weapon death can wield
He goes before to Galilee." Thine own redeemed for ever shield.
Then hastening on their eager way All praise be Thine, O risen Lord,
The joyful tidings to convey, From death to endless life reetored :
Their Lord they met, their living Lord, All praise to God the Father be,
And falling at His Feet adored. And Holy Ghost, eternally. Amen.

Made in Thine own pure Image man ; To bear for us the Cross of pain ;

Refresh at night with quiet rest Prom every weapon death can wield
Our limbs by daily toil oppressed. Thine own redeemed for ever shield.

Our souls with Thee their vigils keep. And Holy GH0ST,eternally. Amen,

' When Thou lettesi thy Breath go forth they shall be made, and Thou sbalt renew the face
of the earth."
"And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place."
ABOVE the starry spheres, While strangers of all climes
To where He was before, Flock round from far and near,
Christ had gone up, the Father's gift And their own tongue, wherever born,
Upon the Church to pour. All with amazement hear.
At length had fully come, But Judah, faithless still,
On mystic circle borne Denies the Hand Divine ;
Of seven times seven revolving days, And mocking jeers the saints of Christ
The Pentecostal morn : As full of new-made wine.
When as the Apostles knelt Till Peter, in the midst,
At the third hour in prayer, By Joel's ancient word
A sudden rushing sound proclaimed Rebukes their unbelief, and wins
That God Himself was there. Three thousand to the Lord.
Forthwith a tongue of fire The Father and the Son
Is seen on every brow ; And Spirit we adore ;
Each heart receives the Father's light, 0 may the Spirit's gifts be poured
The Word's enkindling glow : On us for evermore.
The Holy Ghost on all
Is mightily outpoured,
Who straight in divers tongues declare A - men.
The wonders of the Lord. P£fe

" And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind."
WHEN God of old came down from So, when the Spirit of our God
heaven, Came down His flock to find,
In power and wrath He came ; A voice from heaven was heard abroad,
Before His feet the clouds were riven A rushing, mighty wind.
Half darkness and half flame : It fills the Church of God ; It fills
But when He came the second time, The sinful world around ;
He came in power and love ; Only in stubborn hearts and wills
Softer than gale at morning prime No place for It is found.
Hovered His holy dove. Come Lord, come Wisdom, Love, and
The fires, that rushed on Sinai down Open our ears to hear ; » [Power,
In sudden torrents dread, Let us not miss th'accepted hour ;
Now gently light, a glorious crown, Save, Lord, by love or fear.
On every sainted head.
And as on Israel's awe-struck ear
The voice exceeding loud,
The trump, that angels quake to hear,
Thrill'd from the deep, dark cloud ;

Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea ;

Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see,

BTIIF.F life is here our portion ; But He Whom now we trust in
Brief sorrow, short-lived care ; Shall then be seen and known ;
The life that knows no ending, And they that know and see Him
The tearless life, is (here. Shall have Him for their own.
0 happy retribution ! The morning shall awaken,
Short toil, eternal rest : The shadows shall decay,
For mortals and for sinners And each true-hearted servant
A mansion with the blest. Shall shine as doth the day :
And now we fight the battle, There God, our Kino and Portion,
But then shall wear the crown In fulness of His grace,
Of full and everlasting Shall we behold for ever,
And passionless renown ; And worship face to face.
And now we watch and struggle,
And now we live in hope,
And Sion in her anguish
With Babylon must cope ;

FOR thee, O dear, dear Country, Thou hast no shore, fair ocean !
Mine eyes their vigils keep ; Thou hast no time, bright day !
For very love, beholding Dear fountain of refreshment
Thy happy name, they weep. To pilgrims far away I
The mention of thy glory Upon the Rock of Ages
Is unction to the breast, They raise thy holy tower;
And medicine in sickness, Thine is the victor's laurel,
And love, and life, and rest. And thine the golden dower.

To that dear land of rest ;
With jasper glow thy bulwarks, Who art, with God the Father,

WHEEE high the heavenly temple In every pang that rends the heart
stands, The Man of sorrows had a part ;
The house of God not made with hands, Touched with the feeling of our grief
A great High Priest our nature wears, He to the Bufferer sends relief.
The Guardian of mankind appears.
With boldness, therefore, at the Throna
He, Who for men their surety stood, Let us make all our sorrows known,
And poured on earth His precious Blood, And ask the aid of heavenly power
Pursues in heaven His mighty plan, To help us in the evil hour.
The Saviour and the Friend of man.
All praise to God the Father be,
Jesus, Who suffered here below, All praise, Eternal Son, to Thee,
Feels sympathy with human woe, Whom, with the Spirit, we adore
And still remembers, in the skies, For ever and for evermore. Amen.

A LIVING stream, as crystal clear, But by His Spirit He to us
Welling from out the Throne The secret doth reveal :
Of God and of the Lamb on high, Faith sees and hears : but 0 for wings
The Lord to man hath shewn. To touch, and taste, and feel.
This stream doth water paradise, Wings like a dove, to waft us on
It makes the angels sing ; High o'er the flood of sin !
One precious drop within the heart Lord of the Ark, put forth Thine hand,
Is of all joy the spring : And take Thy wanderers in.
Joy past all speech, of glory full, O praise the Father, praise the Son,
But stored where none may know, The Lamb for sinners given,
As manna hid in dewy heaven, And Holy Ghost, through Whom alone
As pearls in ocean low. Our hearts are raised to heaven.
Eye hath not seen, nor ear hath heard,
Nor to man's heart hath come
What for those loving Thee in truth
Thou hast in love's own home.

JESU, the very thought of Thee Jesu, may all confess Thy Name,
With sweetness fills the breast ; Thy wondrous love adore ;
But sweeter far Thy face to see, And, seeking Thee, themselves inflame
And in Thy presence rest. To seek Thee more and more.
No voice can sing, no heart can frame,
Nor can the memory find Thee, Jesu, may our voices bless ;
A sweeter sound than Jesu's Name, Thee may we love alone ;
The Saviodr of mankind. And ever in our lives express
The image of Thine Own.

But what to those who find ? Ah ! this 0 Jesu, Thou the Beauty art
Nor tongue nor pen can show ; Of angel-worlds above ;
The love of Jesus, what it is Thy Name is music to the heart.
None but His loved ones know. Inflaming it with love.
Jesit, our only Joy be Thou,
As Thou our Prize wilt be ; Celestial sweetness unalloyed !
In Thee be all our glory now, Who eat Thee, hunger still ;
And through eternity. Who drink of Thee still feel a void,
Which nought but Thou can fill.
Part II.
O most sweet Jesu, hear the sighs
O Jesu, King most wonderful, Which unto Thee we send ;
Thou Conqueror renowned, To Thee our inmost spirit cries,
Thou Sweetness most ineffable, To Thee our prayers ascend.
In Whom all joys are found 1
Abide with us, and let Thy Light
When once Thou visitest the heart Shine, Lord, on every heart ;
Then truth begins to shine, Dispel the darkness of our night,
Then earthly vanities depart,
And joy to all impart.
Then kindles love divine.
0 Jesu, Light of all below. Jesu, our Love and Joy, to Thee
Thou Fount of living fire, The virgin's Holy Son
Surpassing all the joys we know All might and praise and glory be
And all we can desire ; While endless ages run. Amen.

SONGS of praise the angels sang, And will man alone be dumb
Heaven with Alleluias rang, Till that glorious kingdom come ?
When creation was begun, No, the Church delights to raise
When God spake and it was done. Psalms and hymns and songs of praise.
Songs of praise awoke the morn Saints below, with heart and voice,
When the Prince of Peace was born ; Still in songs of praise rejoice ;
Songs of praise arose when He Learning here, by faith and love,
Captive led captivity. Songs of praise to sing above.
Heaven and earth must pass away, Hymns of glory, songs of praise,

If thou wonld'st my disciple be ; And calmly every danger brave ;
Deny thyself, the world forsake, 'Twill guide thee to a better home,

Fill thy weak spirit with alarm ; Nor think till death to lay it down ;
His strength shall bear thy spirit up, For only he who bears the cross
And brace thy heart, and nerve thine arm. May hope to wear the glorious crown.
Take up thy cross, nor heed the shame ; To Thee, great Lord, the One in Three,
Nor let thy foolish pride rebel : All praise for evermore ascend ;
Thy Loud for thee the Cross endured 0 grant us in our home to see
To save thy soul from death and hell. The heavenly life that knows no end.
Amen.

«' Of Whom the whole family in heaven and faith is nun
LET saints on earth in concert sing E'en now to their eternal home
With those whose work is done ; There pass some spirits blest ;
While others to the margin come,
For all the servants of our King
In heaven and earth are one. Waiting their call to rest.
Jksu, be Thou our constant Guide •
One family, we dwell in Him, Then, when the word is given,
One Church, above, beneath ; Bid Jordan's narrow stream divide,
Though now divided by the stream, And bring us safe to heaven.
The narrow stream of death.
One army of the Living God,
To His command we bow;
Part of the host have crossed the flood,
And part are crossing now.

Hear me, blest Saviour, when I call ; How great the joy that Thou hast

If we could cast our care on Thee, So chafes weak nature's restless mood
If we from self could rest ; To cast its peace away;
And feel at heart that One above But birds and flowerets round us preach,
In perfect wisdom, perfect love, All, all the present evil teach
Is working for the best. Sufficient for the day.
How far from this our daily life, LoRD,make these faithlessheartsof ours
How oft disturbed by anxious strife, Such lessons learn from birds and
By sudden wild alarms ; flowers ;
Oh, could we but relinquish all Make tbem from self to cease,
Our earthly props, and simply fall Leave all things to a Father's will
On Thine Almighty arms ! And taste, before Him lying still,
E'en in affliction peace.
Could we but kneel and cast our load,
E'en while we pray, upon our God,
Then rise with lightened cheer ;
Sure that the Father, Who is nigh

Where our life is hid on high. Rest in silence on His will.

Enter thine eternal home ;" Ah ! was all too inly dear ;

' What I do thou knowest not now ; but thou shalt know hereafter."
GOD moves in a mysterious way Judge not the Lord by feeble sense,
His wonders to perform ; But trust Him for His grace :
He plants His footsteps in the sea, Behind a frowning pro\ idence
And rides upon the storm. He hides a smiling face.
Deep in unfathomable mines Blind unbelief is sure to err,
Of never-failing skill, And scan His work in vain ;
He treasures up His bright designs, God is His own interpreter,
And works His sovereign will. And He will make it plain.

Doth his successive journeys run ; The prisoner leaps to loose His chains;
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore, The weary find eternal rest,
Till moons shall wax and wane no more. And all the sons of want are blest.
People and realms of every tongue Let every creature rise and bring
Dwell on His love with sweetest song, Peculiar honours to our King ;

When shall I find my willing heart O that it now were shed abroad
All taken up by thee ? In this poor stony heart !
I thirst, I faint, I die to prove For love I sigh, for love I pine :
The greatness of redeeming love, This only portion, Lord, be mine,
The love of Christ to me ! Be mine this better part.
Stronger His love than death or hell ; For ever would I take my seat
Its riches are unsearchable ; With Mary at the Mastkr's feet;
The first-born sons of light Be this my happy choice ;
Desire in vain its depths to see ; My only care, delight, and bliss,
They cannot reach the mystery, My joy, my heaven on earth, be this,
The length and breadth and height. To hear the Bridegroom's voice.

Of glory that the Church shall share. Christ deigns to manifest to-day
Which Christ upon the mountain shows, What glory shall be theirs above.
Where brighter than the sun He glows ! Who joy in God with perfect love.
From age to age the tale declare, And faithful hearts are raised on high
How with the three disciples there, By this great vision's mystery,
Where Moses and Elias meet, For which in joyful strains we raise
The Lord holds converse high and sweet. The voice of prayer, the hymn of praise.
The Law and Prophets there have place, O Father, with the Eternal Son
Two chosen witnesses of grace ; And Holy Spirit ever One.
The Father's voice from out the cloud Vouchsafe to bring us by Thy gracG
Proclaims His Only Son aloud. To see Thy glory face to face. A mea.

"The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the Blood of Cheibi.
The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the Body of Chiust ?"
NOW my tongue the mystery telling
Of the glorious Body sing,
And the Blood, all price excelling,
Which the Gentiles' Lord and King,
In a Virgin's womb once dwelling,
Shed for this world's ransoming.
Given for us, and condescending
To be born for us below,
He with men in converse blending
Dwelt the seed of truth to sow,
Till He closed with wondrous ending
His most patient life of woe.
That last night at supper lying
'Mid the Twelve, His chosen band,
Jksub, with the law complying,
Keeps the feast its rites demand ;
Then, more precious Food supplying,
Gives Himself with His own Hand.
WoRD-made-Flesh true bread He maketh
By His word His Flesh to be ;
Wine, His Blood ; which whoso talteth
Must from carnal thoughts be free ;
Faith alone, though sight forsaketh,
Shows true hearts the mystery.
Therefore we, before Him bending,
This great Sacrament revere ;
Types and shadows Lave their ending,
For the newer rite is here ;
Faith, our outward sense befriending,
Makes our inward vision clear.
Glory let us give, and blessing,
To the Father and the Son,
Honour, might, and praise addressing,
While eternal ages run ;
Ever too, His love confessing,
Who from Both with Both is One.

And, thus inspired with holy fear, And go rejoicing on our way,
Before Thine altar kneel. Renewed with strength divine.

" The harvest truly is plenteouB, but the labourers are few."
THE earth, 0 Lord, is one wide field Endue the Bishops of Thy flock
Of all Thy chosen seed; With wisdom and with grace,
The crop prepared its fruit to yield ; Against false doctrine, like a rock,
The labourers few indeed. To set the heart and face.
Therefore we come before Thee now, To all Thy Priests Thy truth reveal,
With words of humble prayer, And make Thy judgments clear ;
Beseeching of Thy love, that Thou Make Thou Thy Deacons full of zeal,
Would'st send more labourers there. And humble and sincere.
Not for our land alone we pray, Give to their flocks a lowly mind
Though that above the rest, To hear and to obey ;
The realms and islands far away, That each and all may mercy find
O let them all be blest. At Thine appearing day. Amen.

Bless our dim and blinded sight ; Let all tongues in glad accord
Like the day-spring on the night Speak the good thanksgiving word,
Bid Thy grace to shine. Heart-rejoicing praise.
To the nations led astray So the fruitful earth's increase,
Thine eternal love display; Bounty of the GoDof peace,
Let Thy Truth direct their way Never in its course shall cease,
Till the world be Thine. Through the length of days ;
While His grace our life shall cheer
Praise to Thee, the faithful Lord ;
Furthest lands shall own His fear,
Let all tongues in glad accord Brought to Him in worship near,
Learn the good thanksgiving word,
Taught His mercy's ways.
Ever praising Thee.

Owning Thee their Judge and King;
Righteous Truth shall bloom and spring

Day by day his course to run ; He hath filled the Garner-floor;

Ever faithful, ever sure : Ever faithful, ever sure : •

Yet we rest upon His love, God can save us in our need,
Seeking better things above. God can bless us, God can feed.

Shall the wilful heart rebel ? Hymns of glory, songs of praise ;

'« The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedar trees ; yea, the Lord breaketh the cedars of
Libanus."
THE Shepherd now was smitten ; Christ's foe becomes His soldier,
The wolf was ravening near, The wolf destroys no more,
Tiie scattered flock he threatened, A sheep within the slieepfold
But knew not Whose they were. He enters by the door.
In zealons fury seeking 0 voice of God Almighty,
To hind and crucify, What wonders hath it wrought !
A sudden voice withheld him, It rends the lofty cedars,
A loud and startling cry : It bends the haughty thought
" Saul ! Saul ! why Mindly daring Jesu, our Shepherd, cease not
To persecute thy Lord? Thy flock from harm to free,
Tis Jesus Whom thou hatest, And when Thy sheep are wandering
Rebel not at My word." O lead them back to Thee.
Then forth in prayer he stretchetb. To Father, Son, and SpmtT,
Those hands prepared to slay ; All glory, praise, and might,
" What would' st Thou with Thy Who called us out of darkness
servant ? To His own glorious light. Amen.

Let figures disappear, His Lord so long desired,
A Priest and Victim both in one, And hails, with Anna, Israel's Hope,
The Truth Himself, is here. With sudden rapture fired.
No more the simple flock shall bleed ; But silent knelt the Mother blest
Behold, the Father's Son Of the yet silent Word,
Himself to His own altar comes, And, pondering all things in her heart,
For sinners to atone. With speechless praise adored.
Conscious of hidden Deity, All glory to the Father be,
The lowly Virgin brings [doves, All glory to the Son,

PItAISE we the Lord this day, Meekly she bowed her head
This clay so long foretold, To hear the gracious word,
Whose promise shone with cheering ray Mary, the pure and lowly maid,
On waiting saints of old. The favoured of the Lord.
The Prophet gave the sign Blessed shall be her name
For faithful men to read; In all the Church on earth, [came,
A Virgin, born of David's line, Through whom that wondrous mercy
Shall bear the promised Seed. The Incarnate Saviour's birth.
Ask not how this should be, Jesu, the Virgin's Son,

Came down to shadow o'er. And SrnuT evermore. Amen.

With thanks and praise his light to hail. Thus spake the Father to the Son ;
With heavenly message Gabriel came, Behold My herald, who-shall go
That John should be that herald's name, Before Thy Face Thy way to show,
And with prophetic utterance told And shine, as with the day-star's gleam,

Binding earth and heaven in love ; Sits in Manhood glorified,
All the armies of the sky Where His people faint below
Worship His dread sovereignty. Angels count it joy to go.
Seraphim His praises sing, 0 the depths of joy divine
Cherubim on fourfold wing, Thrilling through those orders nine,
Thrones, Dominions, Princes, Powers, When the lost are found again,
Eanks of Might that never cowers. When the banished come to reign.
Now in faith, in hope, in love,
Angel hosts His word fulfil,
We will join the choirs above,
Ruling nature by His will ;
Praising, with the heavenly host,
Round His throne Archangels pour

Songs of praise for evermore.

For true Man their Lord they see,

To soothe our sorrow, calm our fear : And by Thine own Almighty power

And all, with hearts of gladness, raise
In them the Father's glory shone,
Due hymns of thankful love and praise.
In them the will of God the Son,
For they the Churches' princes are, In them exults the Holy Ghost,
Triumphant leaders in the war, Through them rejoice the heavenly host.
In heavenly courts a warrior band,
True lights to lighten every land. To Thee, Redeemer, now we cry,
That Thou wouldstjoin to them on high
Theirs is the steadfast faith of saints,

And hope that never yields nor faints,
For ever and for evermore. Amen.

AN exile for the Faith Lord, give us grace, like him,

Beyond the Btars, beyond all space, To spurn the fleeting things of earth,
His soul in vision soared : And seek for joys on high.
There saw in glory Him Jes0, our risen Lord,
Who liveth, and was dead ; We praise Thee and adore,
There Judah's Lion and the Lamb Who art with God the Father One
That for our ransom bled ; And Spirit evermore.
