GLORY 2. Shout, ye seraphs; Gabriel, raise 3. Now, ye saints, lift up your eyes; 1. CHRIST, the Lord, is risen to-day, Our triumphant holy day: 2. Lo! He rises, mighty King! 4. Christ, the Lord, is risen to-day, 279. 7s, 6 lines. 1. HAIL the day that sees Him rise, Christ hath vanquished death and sin; 3. See, the heaven its Lord receives! His prevailing death He pleads; 5. What, though parted from our sight, Far above yon starry height; Thither our affections rise, MADAN. rest, He leadeth my soul where the still waters flow, Restores me when wandering, redeems when opprest 281. lls. 3. Say, shall we yield Him, in costly devotion, 1. THE Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know; oppress'd. Vainly with gold would His favor secure ; Richer, by far, is the heart's adoration,Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. HOW CALM AND BEAUTIFUL. C. L. M. d HASTINGS. 4 1. How calm and beau- ti ful the morn That gilds the weep no more the Saviour slain; The Lord is risen-He lives a gain. 284. C. L. M. 2. Ye mourning saints! dry every tear The gates of death were closed in vain: 3. Now cheerful to the house of prayer Once by the law your hopes were slain, 4. How tranquil now the rising day! A risen Lord to chase away Your unbelieving fears: Oh! weep no more your comforts slain, 5. And when the shades of evening fall, When life's last hour draws nigh, If Jesus shine upon the soul, 1. O SING unto my soul, my love, It comes as some familiar strain, 2. For, sure as olden sages tell, We are not all of earth; The soul, by some mysterious spell, Has glimpses of its birth, And memories of things divine, Thrill o'er me at that voice of thine. 3. They come as half-forgotten dreams The sound of its celestial streams, The angel faces in the air, O sing-and waft my spirit there. 1. BEYOND the starry skies, Far as th' eternal hills, There in the boundless world of light, Our great Redeemer dwells. 2. Around Him angels fair, In countless armies shine; And ever, in exalted lays, They offer songs divine. 3. "Hail, Prince of life!" they cry, "Whose unexampled love, Moved Thee to quit these glorious realms 4. And when He stooped to earth, 5. They saw Him on the cross, While darkness veiled the skies, And when He burst the gates of death, They saw the Conqueror rise. 6. They thronged His chariot wheels, And bore Him to His throne; Then swept their golden harps and sung"The glorious work is done." 2. "The Lord is risen indeed;" 3. "The Lord is risen indeed;" Up to the courts of heaven, with speed, The joyful tidings bear. 4. Then take your golden lyres, And strike each cheerful chord; Join all the bright, celestial choirs, To sing our risen Lord. 288.. S. M. 1. ENTHRONED is Jesus now, 2. In shining white they stand- 3. They sing the Lamb of God, KELLY. Once slain on earth for them; The Lamb, through whose atoning blood Each wears his diadem. 4. Thy grace, O Holy Ghost, Thy blessed help supply, That we may join that radiant host, Triumphant in the sky. JUDKIN. CAMBRIDGE. C. M. DR. RANDALL. 1. Our blest Redeemer, ere He breathed His tender, last farewell, A Guide, a Comfort 2. He came in tongues of living flame, 2. He came, sweet influence to impart, While He can find one humble heart 4. And His that gentle voice we hear, That checks each fault, that calms each fear, 5. And every virtue we possess, 6. Spirit of purity and grace, Our weakness pitying see; O, make our hearts Thy dwelling-place, SPIRIT OF THE PSALMS. 290. C. M. 1. WHEN God of old came down from heav'n, 2. But when He came the second time, 3. The fires that rushed on Sinai down Now gently light a glorious crown 4. Like arrows went those lightnings forth, 291. C. M. KEBLE. 1. No track is on the sunny sky, Is desolate and bare. 2. That Upper Room is heaven on earth; All that earth has of faith, or hope, 3. One moment-and the silentness 4. He comes! He comes! that mighty Breath From heaven's eternal shores; His uncreated freshness fills His Bride, as she adores. 5. Earth quakes before that rushing blast, And mightily the tempest wheels 6.
