BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE.
FIRST EDITION 1861
Appendix added 1868
SECOND EDITION 1875
Supplemental Hymns added 1889
THE Compilers of Hymns Ancient and Modern cannot issue this new
edition of the book without expressing their deep thankfulness to Almighty
God for the blessing which He has hitherto so richly bestowed upon their
undertaking. The book has been so widely adopted as to make it manifest
that in spite of defects, of which the Compilers are not unaware, the
collection, both of hymns and of tunes, has met the wants of the English
Church in a way that has surpassed the most sanguine anticipations. To God
be the praise.
When the latest Supplement was added in 1889 to the Edition of 1875,
it was evident that this was only a temporary expedient, and that at some
future date a revision would be necessary which should at least fuse the
supplement into one with the main body of the book. But it seemed desirable
to those who were responsible for the issue of the hymnal that the work of
revision should go further than this, and should comprise a thorough and
comprehensive review of the whole collection, together with the introduction of
new material. Negotiations which took place between the Compilers and
a joint Committee of the two Houses of the Convocation of Canterbury in
1892, gave further impetus to the work ; and in the interval of twelve years
that has elapsed it has gone continuously forward. The result is now offered
for the service of God.
The principles by which the book was governed from the first have
undergone no alteration. More than once in former prefaces the Compilers
have expressed their desire " to do their work in the spirit of the English
Prayer-book." This lias been the aim of the present revision, no less than
of those which preceded it.
A good many of the older English hymns have l>een added to the book.
Extensive search has been made for new hymns which might suitably be
inserted, and especially in connexion with certain sections of the book which
seemed to need augmentation in order to secure a due proportion in the
parts.
PREFACE.
It is somewhat to be regretted that hymn writers have not been much
drawn to some subjects which might well have occupied their attention. It
is often urged as an objection to Christian hymn books, that so great a
proportion of the hymns contained in them are addressed to our Blessed
Redeemer, rather than to the Father to Whom He brings us. The defect lies
largely with the composers of our hymns, and not with the compilers of the
collections. Again, few hymn writers have applied themselves successfully to
writing hymns for particular Saints' Days ; few apparently have been inspired
by the social and national aspects of Christianity which appeal so largely to
our time. There is no great choice of good hymns, even upon subjects like
the Seven Words from the Cross, or for Holy Baptism, or about Holy
Scripture. In these and other departments the Compilers would have been
glad to enrich their book. In some few cases new hymns have been written
for the purpose.
The omissions in this edition amount to a considerable number, but it is
hoped that few, if any, of the omitted hymns will be widely missed, and their
excision has made room for others of greater value.
In accordance with the original design and title of the book the foremost
part of the work of the Revisers has been to present the best of the ancient
hymns of the Western Church in as good a form as possible. Immense labour
has been spent on improving the translations. Here and there new versions
have been given in the metre of the original—in a few cases without
displacing older versions in other metres, which were firmly established in
popular favour.
In dealing with the English hymns, care has been taken to examine the
most authentic text available. In many cases a return to the author's original
has in consequence been made. But the Revisers have felt that they were
preparing a hymn book for use in public worship, and not an anthology of
sacred verse for purposes of study. Wherever, therefore, an alteration of the
original, which had been long in current use, seemed to them a real
improvement upon the original, they have not hesitated to perpetuate it.
In some hymns they have deliberately made changes with this practical
end in view.
The revision of the music has been earned on side by side with the
revision of the words. A representative Committee of musicians has reviewed
PREFACE.
the whole of the former edition, and made such changes as seemed imperative.
In the case of the ancient Latin hymns, two settings have been provided—
the ancient melody and a more modern tune. The system of " proper tunes "
has been generally adopted, but tunes are sometimes repeated with hymns which
are restricted to rare occasions'. Many additional tunes, therefore, have been
required, and the opportunity has been taken to draw upon the collections of
sixteenth-century Psalm-tunes both Genevan and English, German chorales,
and the English tunes of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
A number of modern hymn tunes have been omitted ; sometimes
because they were judged inappropriate or. inadequate, sometimes because they
lacked the dignity and simplicity which are essential for congregational
use. In some cases, tunes which were not in accordance with the style
which the Committee thinks appropriate, have been retained in deference to
urgent representation of the affection with which these tunes are generally
regarded, and of the pain which would be caused by their exclusion. In
such cases an additional tune has been given wherever practicable.
Alternative tunes have been frequently suggested throughout the book,
wliich, it is hoped, will be found especially useful where the tune set to a
hymn is of unusual difficulty, or where some other tune is connected by
popular usage with the hymn.
The marks of expression have been omitted, because experience seemed to
show that they were either disregarded or exaggerated. The metronome marks
are also omitted, inasmuch as the pace of a hymn necessarily depends to a
certain extent on varying conditions, such as the number of singers and the
size of the building ; and a knowledge of the character of each tune, and of
the period to which it belongs, will be the safest guide to the appropriate
pace and expression.
The plain-song melodies are provided with modal harmonies, written
in conformity with their character, for such as prefer to have them accom
panied. No attempt has been made by bars or accents to indicate their
rhythms, as in plain-song no strict time-values are represented by the notes.
The accent and character of the words must decide the rhythm and time of
the music. Whenever several notes are grouped to a single syllable they
must be sung more rapidly, except when they occur immediately before a bar.
If accompaniments be used at all, the simplest and most diatonic are those
PREFACE.
which are most consistent with the style. The inappropriateness of
chromatic and modern harmonies cannot be too strongly insisted on.
With a view to guidance in the selection of hymns there is appended to
the preface a table of the ancient English Office Hymns, and also a table of
sets of hymns appropriate for the Three Hours' Service on Good Friday. The
ordinary table of contents which was given in previous editions is now
printed with a more ample and comprehensive classification, including a list
of the various headings under which the General Hymns are grouped.
The Revisers desire to acknowledge their indebtedness to a large circle of
persons whose names cannot be separately mentioned, but who have given
valuable help during the revision. In issuing, however, the results of work
which has extended over so long a period, they feel that they must place on
record the names of some who, after working with them on the committee,
have been called to their rest before the work was completed. The Rev. F. H.
Murray and the Rev. G. W. Huntingford had been associated with the book
from very early days ; the Rev. T. B. Pollock, the Rev. S. J. Stone, the
Rev. J. Ellerton, have left very conspicuous signs of their share in its pages ;
while the Rev. Dr. R. W. Dixon contributed much help, which, though less
conspicuous, was of great value.
Among those who were not members of the Committee no one has laid
the Revisers under a greater obligation than the late Rev. Dr. Bright, whose
interest in the earlier stages of the revision was deep and generous. To
his name must be added those of Bishop W. Walsham How, and of the
Rev. H. Twells.
The thanks of the Committee are heartily given to all those who have
kindly renewed permission for the use of copyright hymns in the new
edition :—to Sir A. F. Hort, for the late Dr. Hort's hymn ; J. E. Bode, Esq.,

music of the new edition, especially for the renewal of the permission to

Watson's " Holyrood ; " to Messrs. Macmillan, for Mr. Hullah's tune

The following have earned a double debt of thanks by giving leave for
tunes new to this edition as well as others that were in the previous edition,
the Rev. C. C. Scholefield ; Mr. W. L. Hewlett, for tunes of Dr. Hayne.
Leave to use tunes not hitherto included has been given by the

two tunes of Dr. Lloyd, and one of Miss Kingham. To all of these the best
thanks of the Compilers are given, as well as to many more who have
allowed them to purchase copyrights or liberty to print, both in the case of
hymns and tunes. The large number of tunes of each class which Messrs.
Novello & Co. have permitted to be included, makes it only proper that a
special acknowledgment should be made of indebtedness to them for friendly
and willing co-operation.
The Proprietors desire also to put on record their gratitude for the way
in which their applications for leave to make some few alterations which
seemed to them necessary have been met by those who had control of the
hymns and tunes in question. In nearly all the cases such leave has been
readily granted.

AT Thy feet, O CHRIST, we lay
Thine own gift of this new day ;
Doubt of what it holds in store
Makes us crave Thine aid the more ;

Be Thyself our chief delight ;
If it bring unknown distress,
All is good that Thou canst bless ;
Only, while its hours begin,
Pray we, keep them clear of sin.
We in part our weakness know,
And in part discern our foe ;
Well for us, before Thine eyes
All our danger open lies ;
Turn not from us, while we plead
Thy compassions and our need.
Fain would we Thy word embrace,
Live each moment in Thy grace,
All our selves to Thee consign,
Fold up all our wills in Thine,
Think, and speak, and do, and be,
Simply that which pleases Thee.
Hear us, LORD, and that right soon ;
Hear, and grant the choicest boon
That Thy love can e'er impart,
Loyal singleness of heart ;
So shall this and all our days,
CHRIST our GOD, show forth Thy praise.

Wliat if Thy form we cannot see, The very wounds that shame would hide ;
We know and feel that Thou art here.
Thy touch has still its ancient power,

And some have never loved Thee well, And in Thy mercy heal us all.

OUR day of praise is done ; Tis Thine each soul to calm,
The evening shadows fall ; Each wayward thought reclaim,
But pass not from us with the sun, And make our life a daily psalm
True Light that lightenest all. Of glory to Thy Name.
Around the throne on high. A little while, and then
Where night can never be, Shall come the glorious end ;
The white-robed harpers 6i the sky And songs of Angels and of men
Bring ceaseless hymns to Thee. In i>erfect praise shall blend.
Too faint our anthems here ;
Too soon of praise we tire :
But Oh, the strains how full and clear
Of that eternal choir !
The hoi>e of heav'n's eternal days For when we feel the praise of Thee
Absorbs not all the heart A task beyond our powers,
That gives Thee glory, love, and praise, We say, " A perfect GOD is He,
For being what Thou art. And He is fully ours."
All glory to the FATHER be,
For Thou art GOD, the One, the Same, All glory to the SON,
O'er all things high and bright ; All glory, HOLY GHOST, to Thee,
And round us, when we speak Thy Name, While endless ages run.
There spreads a heav'n of light.

SUNDAY.
This is the day which the Lord hath made : we will rejoice and be gkid in it.
ODAY of rest and gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
Most beautiful, most bright ;
On thee the high and lowly
Before th' eternal throne
Sing Holy, Holy, Holy,
To the great THREE in ONE.
On thee at the Creation
The light first had its birth ;
On thee for our salvation
CHRIST rose from depths of earth ;
On thee our LORD victorious
The SPIRIT sent from heaven ;
And thus on thee most glorious
A triple light was given.
Thou art a cooling fountain
In life's dry dreary sand ;
From thee, like Pisgah's mountain,
We view our promised land ;
A day of sweet refection,
A day of holy love,
A day of resurrection
From earth to things above.
To-day on weary nations
The heav'nly Manna falls ;
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
Where Gospel-light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We reach the rest remaining
To spirits of the blest ;
To HOLY GHOST be praises,
To FATHER, and to SON ;
The Church her voice upraises
To Thee, blest THREE in ONE.
SUNDAY.
Hymn 41.
S is the day the LORD hath made ; Bless'd be the LORD Who comes to men
- He calls the hours His own : With messages of grace ;
^et heav'n rejoice, let earth be glad, Who conies in GOD His Father's Name
And praise surround the throne. To save our sinful race.
To-day He rose and left the dead, Hosanna in the highest strains
And Satan's empire fell ; The Church on earth can raise !
To-day the saints His triumphs spread, The highest heav'ns, in which He reigns,
And all His wonders tell. Shall give Him nobler praise.

ON Jordan's bank the Baptist's cry To heal the sick stretch out Thine hand,
Announces that the LORD is nigh ; And bid the fallen sinner stand ;
Awake and hearken, for he brings Shine forth, and let Thy light restore
High tidings of the King of kings. Earth's own true loveliness once more.
Then cleansed be every breast from sin ; All praise. Eternal SON, to Thee
Make straight the way for GOD within ; Whose Advent sets Thy people free,
Prepare we in our hearts a home, Whom with the FATHER we adore
Where such a mighty Guest may come. And HOLY GHOST for evermore.
At midnight there was a cry made, BeJiold the bridegroom cometh ; go ye out to meet him.
BEHOLD the Bridegroom draweth The wise will plead with one accord,
nigh : " "O Holy, Holy, Holy LORD,
Hear ye the oft-repeated cry 1 On us Thy quickening grace bestow,
Go forth into the midnight dim ; That none may reach the door too late,
For bless'd are they whom He shall find When Thou shalt enter at the gate
With ready heart and watchful mind ; And to Thy kingdom go."
Go forth, my soul, to Him.
" Behold the Bridegroom cometh by," " Behold the Bridegroom draweth near,''
The call is echo'd from the sky : The warning falls on every ear :
Go forth, ye servants, watch and wait ; That night of dread shall come to all :
The slothful cannot join His train ; Behold, my soul, thy lamp so dim,
No careless one may entrance gain ; Rise, rise the smoking flax to trim ;
Awake, my soul, 'tis late. Soon shalt thou hear His call.

Jesus Christ is come in Hie flesli.
S, sing out with exultation,
v And praise your Benefactor's Name !
To-day the Author of salvation,
The FATHER'S Well-beloved came.
Of undefiled Virgin Mother
An Infant, all Divine, was born,
And GOD Himself became your Brother
Upon this happy Christmas morn.
In Him eternal might and power
To human weakness hath inclined ;
And this poor Child brings richest dower
Of gifts and graces to mankind.
While here His majesty disguising,
A servant's form the Master wears,
Behold the beams of glory rising
E'en from His poverty and tears.
A stable serves Him for a dwelling,
And for a bed a manger mean ;
Yet o'er His head, His advent telling,
A new and wondrous star is seen.
Angels rehearse to men the story,
The joyful story of His birth ;
To Him they raise the anthem—" Glory
To GOD on high, and peace on earth ! "
For through this holy Incarnation
The primal curse is done away ;
And blessed peace o'er all creation
Hath shed its pure and gentle ray.
Then, in that heav'nly"concert joining,
O Christian men, with one accord,
Your voices tunefully combining,
Salute the Birthday of your LORD.

Like an eaglet in the morn, On Thy bosom leaning, LORD ;
One in steadfast worship eyes Thee, In the secret place of thunder
Thy beloved, Thy latest born : Answer kind didst Thou accord,
In Thy glory he descries Thee Wisdom for Thy Church to ponder
Reigning from the tree of scorn. Till the day of dread award.
*He upon Thy bosom lying Lo ! heav'n's doors lift up, revealing
Thy true tokens learn'd by heart ; How Thy judgments earthward move ;
And Thy dearest pledge in dying, Scrolls unfolded, trumpets pealing.
LORD, Thou didst to him impart ; Wine cups from the wrath above ;
Show'dst him how, all grace supplying, Yet o'er all a soft voice stealing—
Blood and water from Thee start. " Little children, trust and love ! "

SAINT JOHN THE EVANGELIST'S DAY.
Hymn 71.
I John . . . was in the isle tluit is called Patinas, for tlie word of God, and for the testimony
of Jesus Christ.
Jussu tyranni pro fide.
A ^ exile for the faith LORD, give us grace, like him,
•"• Of his Incarnate LORD, In Thee to live and die ;
Beyond the stars, beyond all space, To spurn the fleeting things of earth,
His soul in vision soar'd : And seek for joys on high.
There saw in glory Him JESU, 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.
There of the kingdom learn'd
The mysteries sublime ;
How, sown in Martyr's blood, the faith
Should spread from clime to clime.
There heard through highest lieav'n
The Alleluia sound,
The loud Amen that ever rolls
Th* eternal throne around.

There to bend the knee before
Thee Whom heav'n and earth adore.
So may we with willing feet
Ever seek Thy mercy-seat
As they offer'd gifts most rare
At Thy cradle rude and bare,
So may we with holy joy,
Pure and free from sin's alloy,
All our costliest treasures bring,
CHRIST, to Thee our heav'nly King.
Holy JESUS, every day
Keep us in the narrow way ;
And, when earthly things are past,
Bring our ransom'd souls at last
Where they need no star to guide,
Where no clouds Thy glory hide.
In the heav'nly country bright
Need they no created light ;

Thou its Sun which goes not down ;
There for ever may we sing

Put all our evil deeds away.
Our bouiiden watch more strictly keep ;
Enlarge the good for which we pray ;
Avoid the evil thoughts that roll That we, though late, our wanderings o'er,
Like waters o'er the heedless soul : May please Thee now and evermore.

Our souls in slavery to bind. Blest THREE in ONE, and ONE in THREE,

In prayer together let us fall. That Thou wouldst now vouchsafe to bless

1 1 grant us calm repose in Thee, Direct Thy servants in all good, [Blood.
A quiet night from perils free. Whom Thou hast purchased with Thy
Our sleep be pure from sinful stain ; O LORD, remember us who bear
Let not the Tempter vantage gain, The burden of the flesh we wear ;
Or our unguarded flesh surprise, Thou, Who dost e'er our souls defend,
And make us guilty in Thine eyes. Be with us even to the end.

PASSIONTIDE.
Blessed is the wood by which cometh righteousness.
Pange lingua gloriosi Praelium certaminis.
PABT 1.
SIXG, my tongue, the glorious battle, He, in Body now made perfect
Sing the last, the dread affray ; By the thirty years and three,
O'er the Cross, the victor's trophy, Meets full willingly the Passion
Sound the high triumphal lay, Which He came on earth to see ;
How a victim's death enduring, On the Cross the LAMB is lifted,
Earth's Redeemer won the day. To be slain upon the Tree.
Outraged He, and deeply grieving There the nails and spear He suffers,
That the first man Adam fell, Vinegar, and gall, and reed ;
When he took the fruit forbidden, From His gentle Body pierced
Which to taste was death and hell, Blood and water both proceed :
Mark'd e'en then a Tree the mischief Things on earth and things in heaven
Of the first tree to dispel. By that flood from sin are freed.
This alone was found befitting PART 8.
Our salvation's well-laid plan, Faithful Cross, in fame exalted
By a better craft to baffle High o'er every earthly tree ;
Him whose craft had ruin'd man, Leaf, bud, blossom—never forest
And to find the healing medicine Bore another like to thee :
Where our foe the hurt began. Sweet the wood, and sweet the iron,
And thy Load, most sweet is He.
PART 2.
Therefore when at length the fulness Lofty Tree, thy branches soften,
Of the sacred time was come, And thy stiff-set fibres bend ;
He was sent, the world's Creator, Suffer now the inborn hardness
From His FATHER'S heavily home, Of thy wood to have an end ;
And appear'd on earth incarnate, Let the King of heav'n His members
Offspring of a Virgin's womb. On thy yielding trunk extend.
Laid within a narrow manger, Thou alone wast counted worthy
Uttering but an infant sound, This world's ransom to sustain,
While the Virgin Mother fastens That by thee a wreck'd creation
Swaddling clothes His limbs around, Might its ark and haven gain,
In the tightly girded linen With the sacred Blood anointed
GOD'S own hands and feet are bound. Of the LAMB that hath been slain.
The following Doxology may be used at the end of any Part :
Praise and honour to the FATHER,
Praise and honour to the SON,-
Praise and honour to the SPIRIT,
Ever THREE and ever ONE,
One in might, and One in glory,
While eternal ages run.

He teas wounded for mtr transgressions.
Prorae vocem, mens, can o ram.
NOW, my soul, thy voice upraising.
Tell in sweet and mournful strain
How the Crucified, enduring
Grief, and wounds, and dying pain,
Of His love was freely offer'd.
Sinless was for sinners slain.
Scourged with unrelenting fury.
Our iniquities He bore ;
By His livid stripes He heals us,
Raises us to stand once more,
All our bruises gently soothing.
Binding up the bleeding sore.
See ! His hands and feet are fasten'd ;
So He makes His people free ;
Not a wound whence Blood is flowing
But a fount of grace shall be ;
And the very nails which nail Him
Nail us also to the Tree.
Through His heart the spear is driven,
Though His foes have seen Him die ;
Blood and water thence are streaming
In a tide of mystery,—
Water from our guilt to cleanse us.
Blood to win us crowns on high.
JEHU, 7imy those precious fountains
Drink to thirsting souls afford ;
Let them be our cup and healing,
And hereafter our reward :
So a ransom'd world shall ever
Praise Thee, its redeeming LORD.

OH His head, that bleeding head. Now mark, O man, and ponder well
With crown of thorns surrounded ; Sin's awful condemnation.
Look on His sacred hands and feet For whom were all those wounds endured !
Which piercing nails have wounded ; To purchase thy salvation.
See every limb with scourges rent ; Had JESUS never bled and died,
On Him, the just, the innocent, Then what could thee and all l>etide
What malice hath abounded ! But fiery reprobation ?
Tis not alone those tender limbs Flee therefore, sinner, flee from sin
With so much pain are aching ; And Satan's wiles ensnaring ;
For the ingratitude of man Flee from those everlasting flames
His heart within is breaking. For evil ones preparing.
Oh, fearful was the chastisement O thank thy SAVIOUR, and entreat
The Son of Mary underwent, To rest hereafter at His feet,
The place of sinners taking. The life eternal sharing.

-L Thou hast breathed Thy latest sigh, Gather round Him as He stands,
Teaching us the sons of Adam In adoring faith and gladness
How the Sox of GOD can die. Hearing of the pierced hands.
Lifeless lies the pierced Body, There in lowliest joy and wonder
Resting in its rocky bed ; Stands the robber by His side,
Thou hast left the Cross of anguish Reaping now the blessed promise
For the mansions of the dead. Spoken by the Crucified.
In the hidden realms of darkness JESUS, LORD of our salvation,
Shines a light unseen before. Let Thy mercy rest on me ;
When the LORD of dead and living Grant me too, when life is finish 'd,
Enters at the lowly door. Rest in Paradise with Thee.
Lo ! in spirit, rich in mercy
Comes He from the world alxive.
Preaching to the souls in prison
Tidings of His dying love.
Lo ! the heiiv'nly light around Him,
As He draws His people near :

EASTER.
Christ our passover is sacrificed for us ; Outre/ore let us keep the feast.
Ad cenani Agni providi.
""PHE LAMB'S high banquet call'd toshare, O all-sufficient Sacrifice,
•*- Array'd in garments white and fair, Beneath Thee Satan vanquish 'd lies ;
The Red Sea past, we fain would sing Thy captive people are set free,
To JESUS our triumphant King. And crowns of life restored by Thee.
I'pon the altar of the Cross CHRIST rises conqueror from the grave.
His Body hath redeem'd our loss : From death returning, strong to save ;
And tasting of His precious Blood His own right hand the tyrant chains.
In Him we live anew to GOD. And Paradise for man regains.
Protected in the Paschal night O LORD of all, with us abide
From the destroying Angel's might. In this our joyful Easter-tide ;
By strength of hand our hosts go free From every weapon death can wield
From Pharaoh's ruthless tyranny. Thine own redeem'd for ever shield.
Now CHRIST our Passover is slain. All praise be Thine, O risen LORD,
The LAJCB of GOD without a stain ; From death to endless life restored ;
His flesh, the true unleaven'd Bread, All praise to GOD the FATHER be,
For us is freely offered. And HOLY GHOST eternally.

Bwvrf with km in buptism, wJierein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation
of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
Rex sempiterne caelituin.
CHRIST, the heav'ns' Eternal King, Divine Redeemer, Thou didst deign
Creator, unto Thee we sing, To bear for us the Cross of pain,
With GOD the FATHER ever One, And give for us the lavish price
Co-equal, co-eternal SON. Of Thine own Blood in sacrifice.
Thy hand, when first the world began, O LORD of all, with us abide
Made in Thine own pure image man, In this our joyful Easter-tide ;
And linkVl to fleshly form of earth From every weapon death can wield
A living soul of heav'nly birth. Thine own redeem'd for ever shield.
And when the envy of the foe
Had marr'd Thy noblest work below, All praise lie Thine, O risen LORD,
Thou didst our ruin'd state repair From death to endless life restored ;
By deigning flesh Thyself to wear. All praise to GOD the FATHER be
And HOLY GHOST eternally.
' >nce of a Virgin born to save, [grave,
And now new-born from death's dark
U CHRIST, Thou bidd'st us rise with Thw
From death to immortality.
Eternal Shepherd, Thou art wont
To cleanse Thy people at the font,
That mystic bath, that grave of sin,
^Hiefe ran.som'd souls new life begin.

Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously,
\ T the LAMB'S high feast we sing
-"-"*- Praise to our victorious King,
Who hath wash'd us in the tide
Flowing from His pierced side ;
Praise we Him Whose love divine
("Jives His sac-red Blood for wine,
Gives His Body for the feast,
CHRIST the vietiui, CHRIST the priest.
Where the Paschal blood is pour'd,
Death's dark Angel sheathes his sword :
Israel's hosts triumphant go
Through the wave that drowns the foe.
I"raise we CHRIST, Whose Blood was shed,
Paschal victim, Paschal bread ;
With sincerity and love
Eat we manna from above.
Mighty Victim from the sky,
Hell's fierce powers beneath Thee lie ;
Thou hast conquer'd in the light,
Thou hast brought us life and light ;
Now no more can death appal,
Now no more the grave enthral :
Thou hast open'd Paradise,
And in Thee Thy Saints shall rise.
Easter triumph, Easter joy,
Sin alone can this destroy ;
'From sin's power do Thou set free
Souls new-born, O LORD, in Thee.
Hymns of glory and of praise,
Hisen LORD, to Thee we raise ;
Holy FATHER, praise to Thee,
With the SPIUIT, ever be.

EASTER.
Christ be not raised, your faith is vain, ye are yet in your sins.
I" IFT your glad voices in triumph on high,
-*—' For JEHUS hath risen, and man cannot die.
Vain were the terrors that gatlier'd around Him,
And short the dominion of death and the grave ;
He burst from the fetters of darkness that hound Him,
Resplendent in glory to live and to save.
Loud was the chorus of angels on high,
The Saviour hath risen, and man shall not die.
Glory to GOD, in full anthems of joy ;
The being He gave us death cannot destroy ;
Sad were the life we must part with to-morrow,
If tears were our birthright and death were our end :
I5ut JESUS hath cheer'd the dark valley of sorrow,
And bade us, immortal, to heaven ascend.
Lift, then, your voices in triumph on high,
For JESUS hath risen, and man shall not die.

Now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first-fruits of them that slept.
A LLELUIA ! Alleluia !
•"• Hearts to heav'n and voices raise ;
Sing to GOD a hymn of gladness,
Sing to GOD a hymn of praise ;
He Who on the Cross a victim
For the world's salvation bled,
JESUS CHRIST, the King of glory.
Now is risen from the dead.
CHRIST is risen, CHRIST the first-fruits
Of the holy harvest field,
Which will all its full abundance
At His second coming yield ;
Then the golden ears of harvest
Will their heads before Him wave,
Ripen'd by His glorious sunshine
From the furrows of the grave.
CHRIST is risen, we are risen ;
Shed upon us heav'nly grace,
Rain, and dew, and gleams of glory
From the brightness of Thy face ;
That we, with our hearts in heaven,
Here on earth may fruitful be,
And by Angel-hands be gather'd,
And be ever, LORD, with Thee.
Alleluia ! Alleluia !
Glory be to GOD on high ;
Alleluia to the Saviour,
Who hath gain'd the victory ;
Alleluia to the SPIRIT,
Fount of love and sanctity ;
Alleluia ! Alleluia !

HOGATION DAYS.
The powers of earth, for all her ills, That we may feed Thy poor aright,
An endless treasure yield ; And, gathering round Thy throne,
The precious things of th' ancient hills, Here in the holy Angels' sight
Forest, and fruitful field. Repay Thee of Thine own.
Thine is the health, and Thine the wealth, For so our sires in olden time
That in our halls abound ; Spared neither gold nor gear,
Ami Thine the beauty and the joy Nor precious wood, nor heweu stone,
With which the years are crown'd. Thy sacred shrines to rear.
And as, when ebb'd the flood, our sires For there to give the second birth
Kneel'd on the mountain sod, In mysteries and signs,
While o'er the new world's altar tires The face of CHRIST o'er all the earth
Shone out the Bow of GOD ; On kneeling myriads shines.
And sweetly fell the peaceful spell- And if so fair beyond compare
Word that shall aye avail— Thine earthly houses be,
" Summer and winter shall not cease, In how great grace shall we Thy face
Seed time nor harvest fail ; "— In Thine own palace see !

1. PABT 2.
SEE the Conqueror mounts in triumph, HOLY GHOST, Illuminator,
See the King in royal state Shed Thy beams upon our eyes,
Hiding on the clouds His chariot Help us to look up with Stephen,
To His heav'nly palace gate ; And to see beyond the skies,
Hark ! the choirs of Angel voices Where the SON of Man in glory
Joyful Alleluias sing, Standing is at GOD'S right hand,
And the portals high are lifted Beckoning on His Martyr army,
To receive their heav'nly King. Succouring His faithful band ;
this that conies in glory, See Him, Who is gone before us
With the trump of jubilee 1 Heav'nly mansions to prepare, ,
LORD of battles, GOD of armies, See Him, Who is ever pleading
He ha.» gain'd the victory ; For us with prevailing prayer,
He Who on the Cross did suffer, See Him, Who with sound of trumpet
He Who from the grave arose, And with His Angelic train,
HP has vanquish'd sin and Satan, Summoning the world to judgment,
He by death has spoil'd His foes. On the clouds will come again.
Raise us up from earth to heaven.
While He lifts His hands in blessing, Give us wings of faith and love.
He is parted from His friends' ; Gales of holy aspirations
While their eager eyes behold Him, Wafting us to realms above ;
He upon the clouds ascends ; That, with hearts and minds uplifted,
He who walk'd with GOD, and pleased Him, We with CHRIST our LORD may dwell
Preaching truth and doom to come, Where He sits enthroned in glory
He. our Enoch, is translated In His heav'nly citadel.
To His everlasting home. So at last, when He appeareth,
.Vow our heav'nly Aaron enters, We from out our graves may spring.
With His Blood, within the veil ; With our youth renew'd like eagles,
Jo»hua now is come to Canaan, Flocking round our heav'nly King,
And the kings before Him quail ; Caught up on the clouds of heaven,
N'ow He plants the tribes of Israel And may meet Him in the air,
In their promised resting-place ; Rise to realms where He is reigning,
Xow our great Elijah offers And may reign for ever there.
Double portion of His grace. The following Doxology may be sung at the end
. of either Part :
Thou hast raised our human nature Glory be to GOD the FATHKK ;
In the clouds to GOD'S right hand : Glory be to GOD the SON,
There we sit in heav'nly places, Dying, risen, ascending for us,
There with Thee in glory stand : Who the heav'nly realm has won ;
JKPS reigns, adored by Angels ; Glory to the HOLY SPIRIT ;
MAN with GOD is on the throne ; To ONE GOD in Persons THREE ;
-Mighty LORD, in Thine Ascension Glory both in earth and heaven,
We by faith behold our own. Glory, endless glory, be.
The second part of this Hymn inay be used in Whitsuntide.

Mark His bright triumphal car, Plenteous portions of His grace,
Mighty end of mighty deeds, Sent to all whose hearts can soar
Clouds His chariot, winds His steeds ! Whither He has gone before.

Yea, we know it ; ere He left, Yea, we know it ; search would fail,

With that glorious act in view, Earth contains Him not, though wide :
We shall one day cleave it too ! Seek Him at His FATHER'S side.

Jam Christus astra ascenderat.
"VTOW CHRIST above the starry floor Forth from the FATHER'S light it came.
-^ Had cnter'd where He was before, That beautiful and kindly flame,
The FATHER'S promised Gift to claim, And fill'd and kindled with the word
And send the SPIRIT in His Name. Those hearts so loyal to their LORD.
The solemn time was drawing nigh, Of old in every hallow'd breast
Full charged with heav'nly mystery, Thou earnest in Thy grace to rest ;
That week of weeks which brought the feast O grant us now from sin release,
That spoke of ancient bonds released. And in our time, good LORD, give peace.
When the third hour shone all around, Praise we the FATHER and the SON,
There came a rushing mighty sound. And HOLY SPIRIT with Them One :
Which told the Apostle* at their prayer And may the SON on us bestow
That He was come, that GOD was there. The gifts that from the SPIRIT flow.

And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty irind.
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 heav'n 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
The sinful world around ;
But when He came the second time, Only in stubborn hearts and wills
He came in power and love : No place for it is found.
Softer than gale at morning prime
Hover'd His holy Dove, Come, LORD ; come, Wisdom, Love and
Open our ears to hear ; [Power ;
The fires, that rush'd on Sinai down Let us not miss th' accepted hour ;
In sudden torrents dread, Save, LORD, by love or fear.
Now gently light, a glorious crown.
On every sainted head.

The voice exceeding loud,
The trump, that Angels quake to hear,

The unveil'd mysteries of GOD, We in your sacred pages hear
The Gospel of His grace, That SPIRIT speaking still.

The things in type and shadow dim T5e glory, praise, and might,
By holy prophets seen Who call'd us from the shades of death
In all the light of day ye saw To His own glorious light.

FOB MARTYRS.

-*- The Martyrs' triumphs let us sing, And savage beasts their members tear ;
And all •with hearts of gladness raise But naught their constancy could shake
Due hymns of thankful love and praise. For that eternal kingdom's sake.
The world its terrors urged in vain ; To Thee, Redeemer, now we cry,
They reck'd not of the body's pain : That Thou wouldst join with them on high
One step, and holy death made sure Thy servants, who this grace implore,
The life that ever shall endure. For ever and for evermore.

Sore with woe and anguish tried,
Who in prayer full oft have striven
With the GOD they glorified ;
Now, their painful conflict o'er,
GOD has bid them weep no more.

While yet their mortal bodies sleep,
Till from the dust they too shall rise
And soar triumphant to the skies :

Tl HE GOD, Whom earth, and se^ and sky All that was lost by woful Eve
-•- Adore, and laud, and magnify, Thy beauteous Offspring did retrieve ;
Who governs all the threefold frame, That mourners might regain the height,
To birth as Child of Mary came. Heav'n made of thee its window bright.
llrneath th' o'ershadowing of grace, Thou wast the great King's entrance door,
A maiden lent a dwelling-place Light's gate, through which the sunbeams
To that dread LORD, Whom night and day Ye ransom'd nations, hail with mirth [pour;
The sun and moon and all obey. Life through the Virgin brought to earth.
I > Messed Mother, blessed Maid, O LORD, the Virgin-born, to Thee
Thou art the ark wherein was laid Eternal praise and glory be,
The high Artificer Whose hand Whom with the FATHER we adore
The round world in its hollow spann'd. And HOLY GHOST for evermore.
Bkss'd in the word that Gabriel brought,
The HOLY GHOST within her wrought
To fashion for a human birth
The long Desired of all the earth.
0 glorious above woman-kind,
More high than any star hath shined.
Thy Maker, Who His work foreknew,
HU nurture from thy bosom drew.

SHALL we not love thee, Mother dear, Joy to be Mother of the LORD—
Whom JESUS loves so well, And thine the truer bliss,
And to His glory, year by year, In every thought, and deed, and word
Thy joy and honour tell \ To be for ever His.
Bound with the curse of sin and shame And as He loves thee, Mother dear,
We helpless sinners lay, We too will love thee well,
Until in tender love He came And to His glory, year by year,
To bear the curse away. Thy joy and honour tell.
And thee He chose from whom to take
True flesh His Flesh to be, JESU, the Virgin's Holy Son,
In it to suffer for our sake, We praise Thee and adore,
By it to make us free. Who art with GOD the FATHER One
And SPIRIT evermore.
Thy Babe He lay upon thy breast,
To thee He turn'd for food ;
Thy gentle nursing soothed to rest
Th' Incarnate SON of GOD.
O wondrous depth of grace divine
That He should bend so low !
And, Mary, Oh, what joy 'twas thine
In His dear love to know ;

THE CONVERSION OF SAINT PAUL.
Hymn 228.
[~ ORD, Who fulfillest thus anew Grant that the light may round them shin
J—^ Thine own blest dying prayer, That, set from error free,
That they who know not what they do, They in Thy word the truth divine,
May in Thy ransom share : Thee in Thy Church, may see ;
When foes Thy Church's power defy. That so when our brief time is done
Or slight Thy sacred word, We may with them adore
Or Thee, true GOD and Man, deny, The FATHER and co-equal SON
Grant them conversion, LORD. And SPIRIT evermore.

BISHOP of the souls of men, LORD, Whose guiding finger ruled
When the foeman's step is nigh, In the casting of the lot,
When the wolf lays wait by night That Thy Church might fill the throne
For the lambs continually, Of the lost Iscariot,
Watch, O LORD, about us keep, In our trouble ever thus
Guard us, Shepherd of the sheep. Stand, good Master, nigh to us.
When the hireling flees away, When the Saints their order take
Caring only for his gold, In the new Jerusalem,
And the gate unguarded stands And Matthias stands elect,
At the entrance to the fold, Give us part and lot with him,
Stand, O IX)RP, Thy nock before, Where in Thine own dwelling-place
Thou the Guardian, Thou the Door. We may witness face to face.

Who told before with utterance true Before Thy rising face to run.
The glorious deeds that he should do. Like morning star before the sun."

Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
pREATOR of the rolling flood, Grant us, devoid of worldly care,
' On Whom Thy people hope alone, Ajid leaning on Thy bounteous hand,
Tho cam'st by water and by blood, To seek Thy help in humble prayer,
Fur man's offences to atone :— And on Thy sacred rock to stand ;
Who from the labours of the deep And when, our livelong toil to crown,
Didst set Thy servant Peter free, Thy call shall set the spirit free,
To feed on earth Thy chosen sheep, To cast with joy our burden down,
And build an endless Church to Thee :— And rise, O LORD, and follow Thee .'
Jesus said, Arc ye able to drink of the citp that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptiM
that I am baptized with ? They say unto him, We are able.
TWO brothers freely cast their lot Now they join hands once more above
With David's royal Son ; Before the Conqueror's throne ;
The cost of conquest counting not. Thus GOD grants prayer ; but in His love
They deem the battle won. Makes times and ways His own.
Brothers in heart, they hope to gain All glory to the FATHER l>e,
An undivided joy, AH glory to the SON,
That man may one with man remain. All glory, HOLY GHOST, to Thee
As boy was one with boy. While endless ages run.
Rut grace within his breast had stirr'd ; Who keep Thy gifts, O bid them claim
There needed but the timely word ; The steward's, not the owner's name ;
It came, true LORD of souls, from Thee, Who yield all up for Thy dear sake,
That royal summons, " Follow Me." Let them of Matthew's wealth partake.

SAINT MICHAEL AND ALL ANGELS.
Then was war in heaven ; Michael and his angels fought against the dragon ; and the dragon
fought and his angels, and prevailed not.
Christe, qui scdes Olynipo.
CHRIST, the highest heav'ns enthrone Thee,
Equal of the FATHER'S might,
Spirits pure with trembling own Thee,
GOD of GOD, and LIGHT of LIGHT ;
Thee 'mid Angel hosts we sing,
Thee their Maker and their King.
All who circling round adore Thee,
All who bow before Thy throne,
Burn with flaming zeal before Thee,
Thy behests to carry down ;
To and fro, 'twixt earth and heaven,
Speed they each on errands given.
First of all those legions glorious,
Michael waves his sword of flame,
Who in heav'nly war victorious
Did the dragon's fierceness tame ;
Who with might invincible
Thrust the rebel down to hell.
" Who like GOD," th' Archangel shouted ;
This the word that peal'd on high
When th' apostate armies routed
Fell tumultuous from the sky ;
GOD, by Whom they cast them down.
Gave the triumph and the crown.
Strong to aid the sick and dying,
At our prayer they swiftly fly.
Help divine and strength supplying
For the mortal agony :
Souls released from earthly care
Safe to Paradise they bear.
To the FATHER praise be given
By th' unfallen Angel-host,
Who in His great war have striven
With the legions of the lost ;
Equal praise in highest heaven
To the SON and HOLY GHOST.

For the Saints who before us have found their reward ;

THE RESTORATION OF A CHURCH.
JCSHS Christ ... in wliom all the building fitly framed together growth unto an holy temple in

O beata Jerusalem.
MEET it is to tell thy glory, O Jerusalem the blest ;
Spirits of the just made perfect find in thee their joyful rest,
And the seal of thy renewal shineth by the King's behest.
We in awe behold thy glory, mother of a goodly band ;
Who hast peace in all the borders of thy ever-joyous land ;
Lamps of holiness rekindled in thy courts of worship stand.
And this Church again made glorious, firm and stable, fair and bright,
Now doth wear a holier likeness of that temple in the height.
For her star that set aforetime shines to-day with wonted light.
Here, we pray, be pro-sent with us, mighty Builder, Holy LORD ;
To our rite of dedication graciously Thy seal accord,
And Thyself the Consecrator evermore be here adored.
As a temple to Thine honour, us, Thy servants, deign to bless,
That our hearts and all our members may be kept in holiness ;
Since Thy Name is named upon us, let our hearts that Name confess.
Ever lit and ever honour'd be the altar of our King,
Ever worthily replenish'd with the gifts His people bring,
Evermore the benediction of His peace inheriting.
Here ourselves as Thy true altars consecrate, O Judge most High,
By Thy grace for Thy true service heart and body sanctify ;
From Thy throne to us descending let the HOLY GHOST draw nigh.
So in every generation, O most Holy THREE in ONE,
Let the glory of Thy greatness here be magnified alone.
And let everlasting honour to Thy changeless Name be done.

Look'd on His decay'd abode ; Ever blessed THREE in ONE ;
Heard our prayers, and help'd our counsels, Threefold Power and Grace and Wisdom,

HOLY COMMUNION.
The cup of biasing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ ? The bread
which toe break, is it not the communion of the body of Chritt '(
Pange, lingua, gloriosi Corporis mysterium.
NOW, my tongue, the mystery telling
Of the glorious Body sing,
And the Blood, all price excelling,
Which the Gentiles' LORD and King,
Once on earth amongst us dwelling,
Shed for this world's ransoming.
Virgin-born, He condescended
To be given to our need,
Here His stay with men extended,
While He sow'd the word's good seed,
Then His patient sojourn ended
With a wondrous act indeed.
That last night, at supper lying,
'Mid the Twelve, His chosen bund,
JESUS, 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 taketh
Must from earthly thoughts be free :
Faith alone, where sight forsaketh,
Shows true hearts the mystery.
PAST 2.
Therefore we, before Him bending,
This great Sacrament revere ;
Types and shadows have their ending,
For the better rite is here ;
Faith, our outward sense befriending,
Makes the inward vision clear.
Glory let us give and blessing
To the FATHER and the SON,
Honour, thanks, and praise addressing,
While eternal ages run,
His co-equal might confessing
Who from Both with Both is One.

^E pray Thee, heavenly FATHER,
To hear us in Thy love,
And pour upon Thy children
The unction from above ;
That so in love abiding,
From all defilement free,
We may in pureness offer
Our Eucharist to Thee.
Be Thou our Guide and Helper,
O JKSU CHRIST, we pray ;
So may we well approach Thee,
If Thou wilt be the Way :
Thou, very Truth, hast promised
To help us in our strife,
Food of the weary pilgrim,
Eternal Source of life.
And Thou, Creator SPIRIT,
Look on us, we are Thine ;
Renew in us Thy graces,
Upon our darkness shine ;
That, with Thy benediction
Upon our souls outpour'd,
We may receive in gladness
The Body of the LORD.
O TRINITY of Pel-sons !
O UNITY most High !
To Thy tremendous worship
With trembling we draw nigh :
Unworthy in our weakness,
On Thee our hope is stay'd,
And bless'd by Thy forgiveness
We will not be afraid.

HOLY COMMUNION.
Hail, precious Blood, by true descent drawn from our own first sire,
Yet innocent of that fell taint which fills our veins with fire,
Once from the side of Him that died for love of us His kin
Drain'd, an atonement to provide and wash away our sin !
Still Thou art there amidst us, LORD, unchangeably the same,
When at Thy board with one accord Thy promises we claim ;
But in the way Thou corn'st to-day the forms of bread and wine
Conceal the presence they convey, both Human and Divine.
How mighty is the Blood that ran for sinful nature's needs !
It broke the ban, it rescued man ; it lives, and speaks, and pleads ;
And all who sup from this blest Cup in faith and hope and love,
Shall prove that death is swallow'd up in richer life above.

DUBING THE COMMUNION.
RAW nigh and take the Body of the LORD,
And drink the holy Blood for you outpour'd.
By that pure Body and that holy Blood
Saved and refresh'd, we render thanks to GOD.
Salvation's Giver, CHRIST, the Only SON,
By His dear Cross and Blood the world hath won.
Offer'd was He for greatest and for least,
Himself the Victim, and Himself the Priest.
Victims were offer'd by the law of old,
Which in a type this heav'nly mystery told.
He, Lord of light, and Saviour of our race.
Hath given to His saints a wondrous grace.
Approach ye then with faithful hearts sincere,
And take the safeguard of salvation here.
He, that His saints in this world rules and shields,
To all believers life eternal yields ;
He feeds the hungry with the Bread of heaven,
And living streams to those who thirst are given.
Alpha and Omega, to Whom shall bow
All nations at the Doom, is with us now.

But thousands, once as young and weak,
Have fought the fight, and won the crown ;
We ask the help that bore them through ;
We trust the Faithful and the True.

O Of all the faithful pass'd away,
Unto their path that brightness give
Which shineth to the perfect day.
O LAMB of GOD, Redeemer blest,

Bless Thou the dead which die in Thee ;
As Thou hast given them release,
So quicken them Thy face to see,
And give them everlasting peace.

In Thy green, pleasant pastures feed
The sheep which Thou hast summon'd hence ;
And by the still, cool waters lead
Thy flock in loving providence.

Must we and they expectant wait
To hear the gladsome bridal song,
To see Thee in Thy royal state ?

O rend the heavens and come down.
Make up Thy jewels speedily,
And set them in Thy golden crown.

And bring us, perfected with them,
To dwell within Thy city bright,

When GOD spake and it was done. Songs of praise to sing above.
Songs of praise awoke the morn Hymns of glory, songs of praise,
When the Prince of peace was born ; FATHER, unto Thee we raise,
Songs of praise arose when He JESU, glory unto Thee,

MY GOD, how wonderful Thou art, Yet I may love Thee too, O LORD,
Thy majesty how bright, Almighty as Thou art,
How beautiful Thy mercy-seat, For Thou hast stoop'd to ask of me
In depths of burning light ! The love of my poor heart
No earthly father loves like Thee,
How dread are Thine eternal years, No mother, e'er so mild,
O everlasting LORD, Bears and forbears as Thou hast done
By prostrate spirits day and night With me Thy sinful child.
Incessantly adored ! FATHER of JESUS, love's reward,

How wonderful, how beautiful, Prostrate before Thy throne to lie,

He holds the oceans in His hand, In ashes and in ruins lie,
And mighty mountains weighs : Its glory j)ass'd away ;
Unequall'd and alone Again this mighty earth
In majesty He fills His throne. Shall be as ere it came to birth.
When the bright orb of day But ever fix'd, the throne
First gleam'd with ruddy light ; Of the Eternal One
When first the moon, with silver ray, Shall stand, when time and s)>ace are gone,
March'd up the vault of night ; Unequall'd and alone ;
And stars liedeck'd the skies New worlds to make at will,
That seem'd creation's thousand eyes ; And His own wise design fulfil.

By wind and storm Thy might,
Thy love by calm, declarest ;
The rainbows Thou dost bend
Speak peace to us afar ;
At night-time Thou canst send
A word from every star.
On rurth, in heav'n above,
One anthem life is singing ;
The creatures as they rove,
The bird in beauty winging,
The wave with rhythmic call
The music of the wind.
The lake, the waterfall.
Praise one Creator's mind.
Shall we, whom GOD has made

Not join the homage paid
And hymn th' almighty power,

There in none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be fared.
Gloriosi Salvatoris.
TO the Name of our salvation
Laud ami honour let us i>ay,
Which for many a generation
Hid in GOD'S foreknowledge lay,
But with holy exultation
We may sing aloud to-day.
JESUS is the Name we treasure,
Name beyond wliat words can tell ;
Name of gladness, Name of pleasure,
Ear and heart delighting well ;
Name of sweetness passing measure,
Waving us from sin and hell.
Tis the Name for adoration,
Name for songs of victory,
Name for holy meditation
In this vale of misery,
Name for joyful veneration
By the citizens on high.
Tis the Name that whoso preacheth
Speaks like music to the ear ;
Who in prayer this Name beseecheth
Sweetest comfort findeth near ;
Who its perfect wisdom reacheth
Heav'iily joy possesseth here.
JESUS is the Name prevailing '
Over every name by right ;
At this Name, in terror quailing,
Powers of hell are put to flight :
GOD, in mercy never failing,
Saves us by this Name of might.
Therefore we in love adoring
This mast blessed Name revere,
Holy JESU, Thee imploring
So to write it in us here.
That hereafter heav'nward soaring
We may sing with Angels there.

Blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
WE saw Thee not when Thou didst come
To this poor world of sin and death,
Nor e'er beheld Thy cottage-home
In that despised Nazareth ;
But we believe Thy footsteps trod
Its streets and plains, Thou SON of GOD.
' We did not see Thee lifted high
Amid that wild and savage crew,
Nor heard Thy meek, imploring cry,
" Forgive, they know not what they do ; "
Yet we believe the deed was done,
Which shook the earth and veil'd the sun.
We stood not by the empty tomb
Where late Thy sacred Body lay,
Nor sat within that upper room,
Nor met Thee in the open way ;
But we believe that Angels said,
" Why seek the living with the dead I "
We did not mark the chosen few,
When Thou didst through the clouds ascend,
First lift to heav'n their wondering view,
Then to the earth all prostrate bend ;
Yet we believe that mortal eyes
Beheld that journey to the skies.
And now that Thou dost reign on high,
And thence Thy waiting people bless,
No ray of glory from the sky
Doth shine upon our wilderness ;
But we believe Thy faithful word,
And watch for our returning LORD.

//«• foice o/ nzan^ angels . . . saying, . . . Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive
power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
COME, let us join our cheerful songs JESUS is worthy to receive
With Angels round the throne ; Honour and power divine ;
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues, And blessings more than we can give
But all their joys are one. Be, LORD, for ever Thine.
" Worthy the LAMB that died," they cry, Let all creation join in one
"To be exalted thus;" To bless the sacred Name
" Worthy the LAMB," our lips reply, Of Him that sits upon the throne,
" For He was slain for us." And to adore the LAMB.

TTc Twiue a jrea< high priest, that is passed into the lieavens . . . Let us there/ore come boldly
unto the throne of grace.
WHERE high the hcav'nly temple In every pang that rends the heart
stands, The Man of Sorrows had a part ;
The house of GOD not made with hands, He sympathizes with our grief,
A great High-Priest our nature wears, • And to the sufferer" sends relief.
The Guardian of mankind appears.
He Who for men their Surety stood, With boldness therefore at the throne
And pour'd on earth His precious Blood, Let us make all our sorrows known,
Pursues in heav'n His mighty plan, And ask the aid of heav'uly power
The Saviour and the Friend of man. To help us in the evil hour.
Though now ascended up on high,
He bends on earth a brother's eye :
Partaker of the human name,
He knows the frailty of our frame.
Our fellow Sufferer yet retains A - men.
A fellow-feeling of our pains.
And still remembers in the skies
His tears, His agonies, and cries.

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name ,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow.
AT the Name of JESUS Name Him, brothers, name Him,
Every knee shall bow, With love as strong as death,
Every tongue confess Him But with awe and wonder,

Tis the FATHER'S pleasure He is GOD the Saviour,
We should call Him LOUD, He is CHRIST the LORD,

And on his head were many crowns.
Crown Him, ye morning stars of light, .Sinners, whose love can ne'er forget
Who fix'd this floating ball : The wormwood and the gall,
Now hail the Strength of Israel's might, Go spread your trophies at His feet.
And crown Him LORD of all. And crown Him LORD of all.
Let every tribe and every tongue
Crown Him, ye Martyrs of your GOD, Before Him prostrate fall,
Who from His altar call ; And shout in universal song
Extol the Stem-of-.Tes.se's Rod, The crowned LORD of all.
And crown Him LORD of all.
The four ben^ii. and four and twenty ciders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them
harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.
COME, ye faithful, raise the anthem, High on yon celestial mountains
Cleave the skies with shouts of praise ; Stands His sapphire throne, all bright,
Sing to Him Who found the ransom, Where unceasing Alleluias
Ancient of eternal days, They upraise, the sons of light ;
GOD of GOD, the WORD Incarnate, Sion's people tell His praises,
Whom the heav'n of heav'n obeys. Victor after hard-won fight.
Ere He raised the lofty mountains, Bring your harps, and bring your incense,
Form'd the seas, or built the sky, .Sweep the string and sound the lay ;
Love eternal, free, and boundless, Let the earth proclaim His wonders,
Moved the LORD of life to die, King of that celestial day ;
Fore-ordain'd the Prince of princes He the LAMB once slain is worthy,
For the throne of Calvary. Who was dead, and lives for aye.
There, for us and our redemption, Laud and honour to the FATHER,
See Him all His life-blood pour ! Laud and honour to the SON,
There He wins our full salvation, Laud and honour to the SPIRIT,
Dies that we may die no more : Ever THREE and ever ONE,
Then, arising, lives for ever. Consubstantial, Co-eternal,
Reigning where He was before. While unending ages run.

Odd shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
TEN thousand times ten thousand,
In sparkling raiment bright,
The armies of the ramson'd Saints
Throng up the steeps of light :
Tis finish'd ! all is finish'd,
Their fight with death and sin ;
Fling open wide the golden gates,
And let the victors in.
What rush of Alleluias
Fills all the earth and sky !
What ringing of a thousand harps
Proclaims the triumph nigh !
O day, for which creation
And all its tribes were made !
O joy, for all the former woes
A thousand-fold repaid !
Oh, then what raptured greetings
On Canaan's happy shore,
What knitting sever'd friendships up,
Where partings are no more !
Then eyes with joy shall sparkle
That brimm'd with tears of late ;
Orphans no longer fatherless,
Nor widows desolate.
Bring near Thy great salvation,
Thou LAMB for sinners slain,
Fill up the roll of Thine elect,
Then take Thy power and reign :
Appear, Desire of nations ;
Thine exiles long for home ;
Show in the heav'ns Thy promised sign ,

Other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
THE Church's one foundation
Is JESUS CHRIST, her LORD ;
She is His new creation
By water and the Word :
From heav'n He came and sought her,
To be His holy Bride ;
With His own Blood He bought her,
And for her life He died.
Elect from every nation,
Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation
One LORD, one Faith, one Birth,
One holy Name she blesses,
Partakes one holy Food,
And to one hojie she presses
With every grace endued.
Though with a scornful wonder
Men see her sore opprest,
By schisms rent asunder,
By heresies distrest,
Yet Saints their watch are keeping,
Their cry goes up, " How long ? "
And soon the night of weeping
Shall be the morn of song.
'Mid toil, arid tribulation,
And tumult of her war,
She waits the consummation
Of peace for evermore ;
Till with the vision glorious
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall l)e the Church at rest.
Yet she on earth hath union
With GOD the THREE in ONE,
And mystic sweet communion
With those whose rest is won :
O happy ones and holy ! A - men.

Like them the meek and lowly,
On high may dwell with Thee. I

HAIL to the LORD'S Anointed,
Great David's greater Son '.
Hail, in the time appointed.
His reign on earth begun !
He conies to break oppression,
To set the captive free,
To take away transgression,
And rule in equity.
He comes with succour speedy
To those who suffer wrong ;
To help the poor and needy,
And bid the weak be strong ;
To give them songs for sighing,
Their darkness turn to light,
Whose souls, condemn'd and dying,
Were precious in His sight.
He shall come down like showers
Upon the fruitful earth,
And joy and hope, like flowers.
Spring in His path to birth :
Before Him on the mountains
Shall peace, the herald, go ;
Of righteousness the fountains
From hill to valley flow.
Kings shall fall down before Him,
And gold and incense bring ;
All nations shall adore Him,
His praise all people sing ;
To Him shall prayer unceasing
And daily vows ascend ;

The nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it.
Hora novissiina.
THE world is very evil,
The times are waxing late ;
Be sober and keep vigil,
The Judge is at the gate,—
The Judge Who comes in mercy,
The Judge Who comes with might,
Who comes to end the evil,
Who comes to crown the right.
Arise, arise, good Christian,
Let right to wrong succeed ;
Let penitential sorrow
To heav'nly gladness lead,
To light that has no evening,
That knows nor moon nor sun,
The light so new and golden,
The light that is but one.
O home of fadeless splendour,
Of flowers that bear no thorn,
Where they shall dwell as children
Who here as exiles mourn ;
'Midst power that knows no limit,
Where knowledge has no bound,
The Beatific Vision
Shall glad the Saints around.
Strive, man, to win that glory ;
Toil, man, to gain that light ;
Send hope before to grasp it,
Till hope be lost in sight.
Exult, O dust and ashes,
The LORD shall be thy part,
His only, His for ever
Thou shalt be and thou art.

Mine eyes their vigils keep ;

O one, O only mansion !
O Paradise of joy !
Where tears are ever banish'd,
And smiles have no alloy ;
The LAMB is all thy splendour ;

With jasper glow thy bulwarks,
Thy streets with emeralds blaze ;
The sardius and the topaz
Unite in thee their rays ;
Thine ageless walls are bonded
With amethyst unpriced ;
The Saints build up thy fabric,
And the corner-stone is CHRIST.
Thou hast no shore, fair ocean !
Thou hast no time, bright day !
Dear fountain of refreshment
To pilgrims far away !
Upon the Rock of ages
They raise thy holy tower ;
Thine is the victor's laurel,
And thine the golden dower.

Vision whence true peace doth spring,
Brighter than the heart can fancy,
Mansion of the Highest King ;

Which of thee the prophets sing !
There for ever and for ever
Alleluia is out-pour'd ;
For unending, for unbroken
Is the feast-day of the LORD ;
All is pure and all is holy
That within thy walls is stored.
There no cloud nor passing vapour
Dims the brightness of the air ;
Endless noon-day, glorious noon-day,
From the Sun of suns is there ;
There no night brings rest from labour,
For unknown are toil and care.
Oh, how glorious and resplendent,
• Fragile body, shalt thou be,
When endued with so much beauty,
Full of health, and strong, and free,
Full of vigour, full of pleasure
That shall last eternally !
Now with gladness, now with courage,
Bear the burden on thee laid,
That hereafter these thy labours
May with endless gifts be paid,
And in everlasting glory
Thou with brightness be array'd.

Tliere remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
O quanta qualia sunt ilia sabbata.
what the joy and the glory must be,
Those endless sabbaths the blessed ones see ;
Crown for the valiant, to weary ones rest ;
GOD shall be all and in all ever Blest.
What are the Monarch, His court, and His throne ?
What are the peace and the joy that they own 1
O that the bleat ones, who in it have share,
All that they feel could as fully declare !
Truly Jerusalem name we that shore,
Vision of peace, that brings joy evermore ;
Wish and fulfilment can sever'd be ne'er,
Nor the thing pray'd for come short of the prayer.
There, where no troubles distraction can bring,
We the sweet anthems of Sion shall sing,
While for Thy grace, LORD, their voices of praise
Thy blessed people eternally raise.
There dawns no sabbath, no sabbath is o'er,
Those sabbath-keepers have one evermore ;
One and unending is that triumph-song
Which to the Angels and us shall belong.
Now in the meanwhile, with hearts raised on high,
We for that country must yearn and must sigh,
Seeking Jerusalem, dear native land,
Through our long exile on Babylon's strand.
Low before Him with our praises we fall,
Of Whom, and through Whom, and to Whom are all ;
Praise to the FATHER, and praise to the SON,

In this land of sin and woe :
Oh, my spirit longs and faints

For Thy fulness, GOD of grace.
Happy birds that sing and fly
Round Thy altars, O most High ;
Happier souls that find a rest
In a heav'nly FATHER'S breast ;
Like the wandering dove that found
No repose on earth around,
They can to their ark repair,
And enjoy it ever there.
Happy souls, their praises flow
Even in this vale of woe ;
Waters in the desert rise,
Manna feeds them from the skies ;
On they go from strength to strength,
Till they reach Thy throne at length,
At Thy feet adoring fall,
Who hast led them safe through all.
LORD, be mine this prize to win,
Guide me through a world of sin,
Keep me by Thy saving grace,
Give me at Thy side a place ;

God is our hope and strength.
Ein' feste Burg.
GOD is a stronghold and a tower,
A help that never faileth,
A covering shield, a sword of power,
When Satan's host assaileth.
In vain our crafty foe
Still strives to work us woe,
Still lurks and lies in wait
With more than earthly hate ;
We will not faint, nor tremble.
Frail sinners are we ;—nought remains
For hope or consolation,
Save in His strength Whom GOD ordains
Our Captain of salvation.
Yes, JESUS CHRIST alone
The LOKD of hosts we own,
GOD ere the world began,
The Word-made-flesh for man,
Still conquering, and to conquer.
Though fiercely strive the hosts of ill
Within us, and around us,
With fiendish strength, and fiendish skill,
Yet ne'er may they confound us.
Man's night of dark despair,
When storm-clouds fill the air,
Is GOD'S triumphal hour,
The noonday of His power ;
One word, and He prevaileth.
Our FATHER'S truth abideth sure;
CHRIST, our Redeemer, liveth ;
For us He pleads His offering pure,
To us His SPIRIT giveth.
Though dear ones pass away,
Though strength and life decay,
Yet loss shall be our gain,
For GOD doth still remain
Our All-in-all for ever.

OH for a faith that will not shrink, A faith that keeps the narrow way
Though press'd by many a foe ; Till life's last spark is fled,
That will not tremble on the brink And with a pure and heav'nly ray
Of poverty or woe ; Lights up the dying bed.
Jaba called an the. God of Israel, sayiiig, Oh that thou woaldest bless me indeed . . . and that
thine hand might be ivith me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil . . . And God granted
him that which he requested,
FATHER, whate'er of earthly bliss
Thy sovereign will denies,
Accepted at Thy throne of grace
Let this petition rise :—
Jacob vowed a vote, saying, If God will be with me, and mil keep me in this way that I go, and
will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on, so that I come again to my father's hotue «*
peace ; then shall the Lord be my God.
OGOD of Jacob, by Whose hand Through each perplexing path of life
Thy people still are fed, Our wandering footsteps guide ;
"Who through this weary pilgrimage Give us each day our daily bread,
Hast all our fathers led ; And raiment fit provide.
Our vows, our prayers, we now present O spread Thy covering wings around.
Before Thy throne of grace ; Till all our wanderings cease,
GOD of our fathers, be the GOD And at our FATHER'S loved abode
Of their succeeding race. Our souls arrive in peace.

iord is wy shepherd.
Where streams of living water flow And so through all the length of days
My ransom'd soul He leadeth, Thy goodness faileth never ;
And where the verdant pastures grow Good Shepherd, may I sing Thy praise
With food celestial feedeth. Within Thy house for ever.
Perverse and foolish oft I stray'd.
But yet in love He sought me,
And on His shoulder gently laid,
And home, rejoicing, brought me.
s God is our God for ever and ever ; lie shall be our guide unto death.
GUIDE me, O Thou great Redeemer, When I tread the verge of Jordan,
Pilgrim through this barren land ; Bid my anxious fears subside :
I am weak, but Thou art mighty, Death of death, and hell's Destruction,
Hold me with Thy powerful hand ; Land me safe on Canaan's side ;
Bread of heaven, Songs of praises
Feed me now and evermore. I will ever give to Thee.
Open now the crystal fountain.
Whence the healing stream doth flow :
Let the fiery cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through ;
Strong Deliverer,
Be Thou still my strength and shield.

Casting all your care upon him ; for lit careth for you.
OLORD, how happy should we be Could we but kneel and cast our load,
If we could cast our care on Thee, E'en while we pray, upon our GOD,
If we from self could rest, Then rise with lighten'd cheer,
And feel at heart that One above, .Sure that the FATHER, Who is nigh
In [.perfect wisdom, perfect love, To still the famish'd raven's cry,
Is working for the best. Will hear in that we fear.
How far from this our daily life, We cannot trust Him as we should :
Si oft disturb'd by anxious strife. 80 chafes weak nature's restless mood
By sudden wild alarms ; To cast its peace away ;
1 )h, could we but relinquish all But birds and flow'rets round us preach ;
Oir earthly props, and simply fall All, all the present evil teach
On Thy almighty arms ! Sufficient for the day.
i2{ 6e done.
MY GOD, my FATHER, while I stray, Let but my fainting heart lx- blest
Far from my home, on life's rough With Thy sweet SPIRIT for its guest,
0 teach me from my heart to say, [way, My GOD, to Thee I leave the rest ;
"Thy will be done." Thy will be done.
Though dark my i>ath, and sad my lot, Renew my will from day to day,
Let me be still and murmur not, Blend it with Thine, and take away
Or breathe the prayer divinely taught, All that now makes it hard to say,
"Thy will be done." "Thy will be done."
What though in lonely grief I sigh
For friends beloved no longer nigh,
Submissive would I still reply,
" Thy will be done."
If Thou shouldst call me to resign A - men.
What most I prize, it ne'er was mine ;

A FEW more years shall roll,

And we shall be with those that rest
Asleep within the tomb :
Then, O my LORD, prepare

O wash me in Thy precious Blood,
And take my sins away.
A few more suns shall set
O'er these dark hills of time,
And we shall be where suns are not,
A far serener clime :
Then, O my LORD, prepare

And take my sins away.
A few more storms shall beat
On this wild rocky shore,
And we shall be where tempests cease,
And surges swell no more :

O wash me in Thy precious Blood,
And take my sins away.
A few more struggles here,
A few more partings o'er,
A few more toils, a few more tears,
And we shall weep no more :

O wash me in Thy precious Blood,
And take my sins away.
Tis but a little while
And He shall come again,
Who died that we might live, Who lives
That we with Him may reign :

Quit you like men ; be strong.
STAND up !—stand up for JESUS !
Ye soldiers of the Cross ;
Lift high His royal banner,
It must not suffer loss.
From victory unto victory
His army shall He lead,
Till every foe is vanquish'd,
And CHRIST is LORD indeed.
Stand up!—stand up for JKSUS !
The solemn watchword hear ;
If while ye sleep He suffers,
Away with shame and fear ;
Where'er ye meet with evil,
Within you or without,
Charge for the GOD of battles,
And put the foe to rout.
Stand up !—stand up for JESUS !
The trumpet call obey ;
Forth to the mighty conflict
In this His glorious day.
Ye that are men now serve Him
Against unnumbered foes :
Let courage rise with danger
And strength to strength oppose.
Stand up ! —stand up for JESUS !
Stand in His strength alone ;
The arm of flesh will fail you,
Ye dare not trust your own.
Put on the Gospel armour,
Each piece put on with prayer :
When duty calls or danger.
Be never wanting there !
Stand up !—stand up for JESUS !
The strife will not lie long :
This day the noise of battle,
The next the victor's song.
To him that overcometh,
A crown of life shall be :
He with the King of Glory
Shall reign eternally.

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins.
WEARY of earth and laden with my sin,
I look at heav'n and long to enter in ;
But there no evil thing may find a home,
And yet I hear a voice that bids me, " Come."
So vile I am, how dare I hope to stand
In the pure glory of that holy land 1
Before the whiteness of that throne appear i
Yet there are hands streteh'd out to draw me near.
The while I fain would tread the heav'nly way,
Evil is ever with me day by day ;
Yet on mine ears the gracious tidings fall,
" Repent, confess, thou shalt be loosed from all."
It is the voice of JESUS that I hear,
His are the hands stretch'd out to draw me near,
And His the Blood that can for all atone,
And set me faultless there before the throne.
Twas He Who found me on the deathly wild,
And made me heir of heav'n, the FATHER'S child,
And day by day, whereby my soul may live,
(Jives me His grace of pardon, and will give.
C) great Absolver, grant my soul may wear
The lowliest garb of penitence and prayer,
That in the FATHER'S courts my glorious dress
May be the garment of Thy righteousness.
Yea, Thou wilt answer for me, righteous LOKJI :
Thine all the merits, mine the great reward ;
Thine the sharp thorns, so mine the golden crown :
Mine the life won, through Thine the life laid down.
Naught can I bring, dear LORD, for all I owe,
Yet let my full heart what it can bestow ;
Myself my gift, let my devotion prove,
Forgiven greatly, how I greatly love.

WE have not known Thee as we ought,
Nor learn'd Thy wisdom, grace, and power ;
The things of earth have fill'd our thought,
And trifles of the passing hour.
LORD, give us light Thy truth to see,
And make us wise in knowing Thee.
We have not fear'd Thee as we ought,

Nor guarded deed, and word, and thought,
Remembering that GOD was nigh.
LORD, give us faith to know Thee near,
And grant the grace of holy fear.
We have not loved Thee as we ought,
Nor cared that we are loved by Thee ;
Thy presence we have coldly sought,
And feebly long'd Thy face to see.
LORD, give a pure and loving heart
To feel and own the love Thou art.
We have not served Thee as we ought,
Alas ! the duties left undone,—
The work with little fervour wrought,—
The battles lost, or scarcely won !
LOKD, give the zeal, and give the might,
For Thee to toil, for Thee to fight.
When shall we know Thee as we ought,
And fear, and love, and serve aright !

Stood once again at Peter's side, Look on us from Thy FATHER'S side
And ask'd him, " Lov'st thou Me 1 " And let that sweet look win.
How many times with faithless word Hear when we call Thee from the deep,
Have we denied His holy Name ! Still walk beside us on the shore,
How oft forsaken our dear LORD, Give hands to work, and eyes to weep,
And shrunk when trial came ! And hearts to love Thee more.
Saint Peter, when the cock crew clear,
Went out, and wept his broken faith ;
Strong as a rock through strife and fear,
He served his LORD till death.

" I deliver'd thee when bound, LORD, it is my chief complaint
And, when bleeding, heal'd thy wound ; That my love is weak and faint ;
Sought thee wandering, set thee right, Yet I love Thee, and adore ;
Turn'd thy darkness into light. O for grace to love Thee more.
" Can a woman's tender care
Cease towards the child she bare ?
Yes, she may forgetful be,
Yet will I remember thee.
" Mine is an unchanging love.
Higher than the heights above,
Deeper than the depths beneath,
Free and faithful, strong as death.

OLOVE Divine, how sweet Thou art ! GOD only knows the love of GOD ;
When shall I find my willing heart O that it now were shed abroad
All taken up by Thee 1 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 Master's feet ;
The first-born sons of light Be this my happy choice ;
Desire in vaiii its depths to see ; My only care, delight, and bliss,
They cannot reach the mystery, My joy, my heav'n on earth, be this,

And quicken'd from the dead ;

For wanderings sad and lone ;
Yea, all was left for me ;
Have I left aught for Thee ?
Thou, LORD, hast borne for me
More than my tongue can tell
Of bitterest agony,
To rescue me from hell ;
Thou suff'redst all for me ;
What have I borne for Thee ?
And Thou hast brought to me
Down from Thy home above
Salvation full and free,
Thy pardon and Thy love ;

When ye glorify tlte Lord, exalt him as much as ye can : for even yet will he far exceed : and when
ye exalt him, put forth all your strength, and be not weary : for ye can never go far enough.
OH for a thousand tongues to sing Hear Him, ye deaf ; His praise, ye dumb,
My blest Redeemer's praise, Your loosen'd tongues employ ;
The glories of my GOD and King, Ye blind, behold your Saviour come ;
The triumphs of His grace ! And leap, ye lame, for joy !
JKSUS—the Name that charms our fears, My gracious Master and my GOD,
That bids our sorrows cease ; Assist me to proclaim
Tis music in the sinner's ears, And spread through all the earth abroad
'Tis life, and health, and peace. The honours of Thy Name.

WE sing the praise of Him Who died, The balm of life, the cure of woe,
Of Him Who died upon the Gross ; The measure and the pledge of love,
The sinners hope let men deride, The sinner's refuge here below,
For this we count the world but loss. The Angels' theme in heav'n above.
Inscribed upon the Cross we see To CHRIST, Who won for sinners grace
In shining letters, " GOD is Love ; " By bitter grief and anguish sore,
He bears our sins upon the Tree ; Be praise from all the ransom'd race
He brings us mercy from above. For ever and for evermore.

Seek in new waters an immortal prey ;
To CHRIST sing Alleluia.
The Holy DOVE is brooding o'er the deep,
And careless hearts are waking out of sleep ;
To Him sing Alleluia.
Yea, for sweet hojie new-born, blest work begun,
Sing Alleluia to the THREE in ONE,
Adoring Alleluia.
Glory to GOD ! the Church in patience cries ;
Glory to GOD ! the Church at rest replies,
With endless Alleluia.

MISSIONS TO THE JEWS.
THOU, the CHRIST for ever one.
Mary's Child and Israel's GOD,
Daniel's Prince and David's Son,
Jacob's Star and Jesse's Rod,
Thou of Whom the Prophets spake,
Thou in Whom their words came true.
Hear the pleading prayer we make,
Hear the Gentile for the Jew !
Knowing what the SPIRIT saith.
Sure of Thee, our CHRIST 'Divine,
Lo, we stand, by right of faith,
Heirs of Abraham's charter'd line ;
Can we then his sons forget,
Branches sever'd from their tree,
Exiles from their homes, and yet
Kinsmen, LORD, in flesh to Thee 1
Though the Blood, betray'd and spilt,
On the race entail'd a doom,
Let its virtue cleanse the guilt,
Melt the hardness, chase the gloom ;
Lift the veil from off their heart,
Make them Israelites indeed.
Meet once more for lot and part
With Thy household's genuine seed.
Thou that didst Thy dews outpour,
Crowning alien grafts with fruit,
Soon the native growths restore,
Making glad the parent root :
Ah ! but let not pride ensnare
Souls that need to mourn their sin ;
Still the boughs* adopted spare,
And the outcasts—graft them in !
Speed the day of union sweet
When, with us in faith allied,
Israel's heart shall turn to greet
Thee, Whom Israel crucified :
Thee, in all Thy truth and grace,
Own'd at last as Salem's King,
While her children find their place
Gather'd safe beneath Thy wing.

Stand fast in one spirit, striving together for the faith of tlie Gospel.
CHUBCW WORKERS.
THE call to arms is sounding,
The foeinen muster strong,
While Saints beneath the altar
Are crying " LORD, how long 1 "
The living and the loving
CHRIST'S royal standard raise,
And marching on to conflict
Shout forth their Captain's praise.
No time for self-indulgence,
For resting by the way ;
Repose \vill come at even,
But toil is for the day :
Work, like the blessed JESUS,
Who from His earliest youth
Would do His FATHER'S business
And witness for the truth.
For the one Faith, the true Faith,
The Faith which cannot fail,
For the one Church, the true Church,
'Gainst which no foes prevail ;
Made one with GOD Incarnate,
We in His might must win
The glory of self-conquest,
Of victory over sin.
Behold ! upon Mount Sion
A glorious people stand,
A crown on every forehead,
A palm in every hand ;
Lo ! these are they who boldly
The Name of CHRIST confess'd,
And now triumphant praise Him
In heav'n's unresting rest.
O JESU, Who art waiting
Thy faithful ones to crown,
Vouchsafe to bloss our conflict,
Our loving service own ;
Come in each heart for ever
As King adored to reign.
Till we with Saints triumphant
Uplift the victor strain.

L(1OHD of glory, Who hast bought us
With Thy life-blood as the price,
Never grudging for the lost ones
That tremendous Sacrifice,
And with that hast freely given
Blessings countless as the sand
To tli' unthankful and the evil
With Thine own unsparing hand ;
Grant us hearts, dear LORD, to yield Thee
Gladly, freely of Thine own ;
With the sunshine of Thy goodness
Melt our thankless hearts of stone ;
Till our cold and selfish natures,
Warm'd by Thee, at length believe
That more happy and more blessed
Tis to give than to receive.
Wondrous honour hast Thou given
To our humblest charity
In Thine own mysterious sentence,
" Ye have done it unto Me."
Can it be, O gracious Master,
Thou dost deign for alms to sue,
Saying by Thy poor and needy,
" Give as I have given to you ? "
Yes : the sorrow and the suffering,
Which on every hand we see,
Channels are for tithes and offerings
Due by solemn right to Thee ;
Right of which we may not rob Thee,
Debt we may not choose but pay,
Lest that face of love and pity
Turn from us another day.
LORD of glory, Who hast bought us
With Thy life-blood as the price,
Never grudging for the lost ones
That tremendous Sacrifice,
Give us faith, to trust Thee boldly,
Hope, to stay our souls on Thee ;
But Oh, best of all Thy graces,
Give us Thine own charity.

From the glory comes a voice,
Who accepts th' Almighty's mission 1
Who will make CHRIST'S work his choice 1
Who for Us proclaim to sinners,
Turn, believe, endure, rejoice 1
Here are we, Redeemer, send us !
But because Thy work is fire,
And our lips, unclean and earthly,
Breathe no breath of high desire,
Send Thy Seraph from the altar,
Veil'd, but in his bright attire.
Cause him, LORD, to fly full swiftly
With the mystic coal in hand,
Sin-consuming, soul-transforming
(Faith and love will understand) ;
Touch our lips, Thou awful Mercy,
With Thine own keen healing brand.
Thou didst come that fire to kindle ;
Fain would we Thy torches prove,
Far and wide Thy beacons lighting
With th' undying spark of love :
Only feed our flame, we pray Thee,
With Thy breathings from above.
Now to GOD, the soul's Creator,
To His WORD and WISDOM sure,
To His all-enlightening SPIRIT,
Patron of the frail and poor,

OLORD, our strength in weakness,
We pray to Thee for grace ;
For power to fight the battle,
For speed to run the race ;
When Thy baptismal waters
Were pour'd upon our brow,
We then were made Thy children,
And pledged our earliest vow.
CHRIST with His own Blood bought us,
And made the purchase sure ;
His are we ; may He keep us
Sober, and chaste, and pure.
He, GOD in Man, has carried
Our nature up to heaven ;
And thence the HOLY SPIRIT
To dwell in us has given.
Conform'd to His own likeness,
May we so live and die,
That in the grave our bodies
In holy peace may lie,
And at the Resurrection
Forth from those graves may spring
Like to the glorious Body
Of CHRIST, our LORD and King.
The pure in heart are blessed,
For they shall see the LORD,
For ever and for ever
By Seraphim adored ;
And they shall drink the pleasures,
Such as no tongue can tell,
From the clear crystal river,
And Life's eternal well.
Sing therefore to the FATHER,
Who sent the SON in love ;
And sing to GOD the SAVIOUR,
Who leads to realms above : A - men.

Some wait around Him, ready still So shall no wicked thing draw near,
To sing His praise and do His will ; To do us harm or cause us fear ;
And some, when He commands them, go And we shall dwell, when life is past,
To guard His servants here below. With Angels round Thy throne at last.

Thine eyes shall see the King in his beauty ; they stiall behold the land that is very far off.
VERY morning the red sun CHRIST our LORD is ever near
Rises warm and bright ; Those who follow Him ;
But the evening cometh on, But we cannot see Him here,
And the dark, cold night. For our eyes are dim ;
There's a bright land far away, There is a most happy place.
Where 'tis never-ending day. Where men always see His face.
Every spring the sweet young flowers Who shall go to that bright land ?
Open bright and gay, All who do the right :
Till the chilly autumn hours Holy children there shall stand
Wither them away. In their robes of white ;
There's a land we have not seen, For that heav'n, so bright and blest.
Where the trees are always green. Is our everlasting rest.

Speak, Lord, for thy servant hearctii.
HUSH'D was the evening hyinn,
The temple courts were dark ;
The lamp was burning dim
Before the sacred ark ;
When suddenly a voice divine
Rang through the silence of the shrine.
The old man meek and mild,
The priest of Israel, slept ;
His watch the temple child,
The little Levite, kept ;
And what from Eli's sense was seal'd,
The LORT> to Hannah's son reveal'd.
O give me Samuel's ear,
The open ear, O LORD,
Alive and quick to hear
Each whisper of Thy word ;
Like him to answer at Thy call,
And to obey Thee first of all.
O give me Samuel's heart,
A lowly heart, that waits
Where in Thy house Thou art,
Or watches at Thy gates,—
By day and night, a heart that still
Moves at the breathing of Thy will.
O give me Samuel's mind,
A sweet unmurmuring faith,
Obedient and resign'd
To Thee in life and death ;
That I may read with child-like eyes
Truths that are hidden from the wise.

The precious Blood can cleanse us,

Although we oft have wander'd,

When heart and eye run o'er ?
When all things seem against us,
To drive us to despair,
We know one gate is open,

backslidings are many.
WEARY of wandering from my Gon,
And now made willing to return,
I hear, and bow me to the rod ;
For Thee, not without hope, I mourn ;
1 have an Advocate above,
A Friend before the throne of love.
() JESUS, full of pardoning grace,
More full of grace than I of sin,
Yet once again I seek Thy face ;
Open Thine arms, and take me in,
And freely my backslidings heal,
And love the faithless sinner still.
Thou know'st the way to bring me back,
My fallen spirit to restore ;
O for Thy truth and mercy's sake
Forgive, and bid me sin no more :
The ruins of my soul repair,
And make my heart a house of prayer.
The stone to flesh again convert.
The veil of sin once more remove ;
Sprinkle Thy Blood upon my heart,
And melt it with Thy dying love ;
This rebel heart by love subdue,
And make it soft, and make it new.
Ah, give me, LORD, the tender heart
That trembles at the approach of sin ;
A godly fear of sin impart,
Implant, and root it deep within,
That I may dread Thy gracious power,
And never dare offend Thee more.

rnHERE is a fountain fill'd with Blood, Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
J- Drawn from Emmanuel's veins, I'll sing Thy power to save.
And sinners plunged beneath that flood When this poor lisping, stammering tongue-
Lose all their guilty stains. Lies silent in the grave.
LOED, I believe Thou hast prepared,
The dying thief rejoiced to see Unworthy though I be.
That fountain in his day ; For me a blood-bought free reward,
And there may I, as vile as he, A golden harp for me.
Wash all my sins away.
Tis strung and tuned for endless years.
Dear dying LAMB, Thy precious Blood And form'd by power divine,
Shall never lose its power, To sound in GOD the FATHER'S ears
Till all the ransom'd Church of GOD No other name but Thine.
Be saved to sin no more.
jy any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
WHEN at Thy footstool, LORD, I bend, O think not of my doubts and fears,
And plead with Thee for mercy My strivings with Thy grace divine ;
there, Think upon JESUS' woes and tears,
Think of the sinner's dying Friend, And let His merits stand for mine.
And for His sake receive my prayer.
O think not of my shame and guilt, Thine eye, Thine ear, they are not dull ;
My thousand stains of deepest dye ; Thine arm can never shorten'd be ;
Think of the Blood which JESUS spilt, Behold me here ; my heart is full ;
And let that Blood my pardon buy. Behold, and spare, and succour me.
Think, LORD, how I am still Thine own,
The trembling creature of Thy hand ;
Think how my heart to sin is prone.
And what temptations round me stand.
O think upon Thy holy word,
And every plighted promise there :
How prayer shoulfl evermore be heard,
And how Thy glory is to spare.

COME, O Thou Traveller unknown,

My company before is gone,
And I am left alone with Thee ;
With Thee all night I mean to stay,
And wrestle till the break of day.

Look on Thy hands, and read it there !
But Who, I ask Thee, Who art Thou ?
Tell me Thy Name, and tell me now.
In vain Thou strugglest to get free,
I never will unloose my hold ;
Art Thou the Man that died for me 1
The secret of Thy love unfold ;
Wrestling, I will not let Thee go,
Till I Thy Name, Thy Nature know.
Yield to me now, for I am weak,
But confident in self-despair ;
Speak to my heart, in blessings speak,
Be conquer'd by my instant prayer !
Si>eak, or Thou never hence shalt move,
And tell me if Thy Name is Love 1
Tis Love ! 'tis Love ! Thou diedst for me !

Whose depth unfathom'd, no man knows ;

At rest, till it finds rest in Thee.
Tis mercy all, that Thou hast brought

Ah, tear it thence, and reign alone,

Then shall my heart from earth be free.
When it hath found repose in Thee.

Nor let one hidden lust survive !

Nothing desire, apart from Thee.

To taste Thy love, be all my choice.

THOU didst leave Thy Throne and Thy kingly Crown
When Thou earnest to earth for me ;
But in Bethlehem's home was there found no room
For Thy holy Nativity :
O come to my heart, LORD JESUS ;
There is room in my heart for Thee.
The foxes found rest, and the bird had its neat
In the shade of the cedar tree ;
But Thy couch was the sod, O Thou SON of Gor>,
In the desert of Galilee :

Amen ; so let it be ;
Life from the dead is in that word,
Tis immortality.
Here in the body pent,
Absent from Him I roam,
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent
A day's march nearer home.
My FATHER'S house on high,
Home of my soul, how near
At times to faith's foreseeing eye
Thy golden gates appear !
Ah ! then my spirit faints
To reach the land I love,
The bright inheritance of Saints.

" For ever with the LORD ! "
FATHER, if 'tis Thy will,
The promise of that faithful word
Even here to me fulfil.
Be Thou at rny right hand,
Then can I never fail ;
Uphold Thou me, and I shall stand ;
Fight, and I must prevail.
So when my latest breath
Shall rend the veil in twain,
By death I shall escape from death,
And life eternal gain.

Climb the steps of grace ; Round the throne of light.

Leave behind the night : To the SON and SPIRIT
Forward through the darkness. Echo songs of praise :

PART 2.
From all pride and vain conceits
From all spite and angry heat,
From all lying and deceit,
Save us. Holy JESU.
From all sloth and idleness,
From hard hearts and selfishness, '
From all lust and greediness,
Save us, Holy JESU.
From refusing to obey.
From the love of our own way,
From forgetfulness to pray,
Save us, Holy JESU.
PART 8.
By Thy birth and early years,
By Thine infant wants and fears,
By Thy sorrows and Thy tears.
Save us, Holy JESU.
By Thy pattern bright and pure.
By the pains Thou didst endure
Our salvation to procure,
Save us. Holy JESU.
By Thy wounds and thorn-erown'd head.
By Thy Blood for sinners shed,
By Thy rising from the dead,
Save us, Holy JESU.
By Thy mercies infinite,
By Thine all-surpassing might,
By Thy glory in the height,
Save us. Holy JESU.
