I loved to choose and see my path; but now
Lead thou me on.

I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,
Pride ruled my will: remember not past years.
3 So long thy power hath blessed me, sure it still
Will lead me on

O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, till
The night is gone,

And with the morn those angel faces smile,
Which I have loved long since, and lost awhile.

349 (COVENTRY) C. M.
I Dear refuge of my weary soul,

On thee, when sorrows rise,
On thee, when waves of trouble roll,
My fainting hope relies.

2 To thee I tell each rising grief,
For thou alone canst heal;
Thy word can bring a sweet relief
For every pain I feel.

3 But, oh, when gloomy doubts prevail,
I fear to call thee mine;
The springs of comfort seem to fail,
And all my hopes decline.

4 Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee? Thou art my only trust;

And still my soul would cleave to thee, Though prostrate in the dust.

1. Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave and follow thee;

FINE.

Naked, poor, despised,for saken, Thou from hence my all shalt bel

D. S. Yet

how rich is my condition, God and heav'n are still my own!

D.S.

Perish ev'ry fond am - bi- tion, All I've sought, or hoped, or known,

2 Let the world despise and leave me,
They have left my Saviour, too;
Human hearts and looks deceive me
Thou art not, like them, untrue;
Oh, while thou dost smile upon me,
God of wisdom, love, and might,
Foes may hate, and friends disown me,
Show thy face, and all is bright.

352 (PLEYEL'S HYMN) 7.7.7.7
I Children of the heavenly King,
As we journey, let us sing;

Sing our Saviour's worthy praise,
Glorious in his works and ways.
2 We are trav❜ling home to God,
In the way our fathers trod :
They are happy now, and we
Soon their happiness shall see.

3 Man may trouble and distress me,

'Twill but drive me to thy breast; Life with trials hard may press me;

Heaven will bring me sweeter rest! Oh, 'tis not in grief to harm me,

While thy love is left to me; Oh, 'twere not in joy to charm me, Were that joy unmixed with thee. Henry F. Lyte

3 Fear not, brethren, joyful stand
On the borders of our land:
Jesus Christ, our Father's Son,
Bids us undismayed go on.
4 Lord, obediently we'll go,
Gladly leaving all below;
Only thou our leader be,
And we still will follow thee.

[blocks in formation]

1. Children of the heav'n-ly King, As we journey, let us sing;

Sing our Saviour's worthy praise, Glorious in

his works and ways.
