Phil. 1: 6. 760 All thy faithful mercies crown: Enter every trembling heart. 2 Breathe, oh, breathe thy loving Spirit Let us find thy promised rest: Let us all thy life receive! Never more thy temples leave! 3 Finish then thy new creation, Pure, unspotted may we be: Let us see our whole salvation Perfectly secured by thee! Changed from glory into glory, Till in heaven we take our place; Till we cast our crowns before thee, Lost in wonder, love, and praise. ALL is dying; hearts are breaking Which were our support and stay; 2 Everything we love and cherish Earthly flames must cease to glow, 3 Yet unchanged while all decayeth, Who himself forever lives, JESUS, I my cross have taken, LYTE. 4 Go then, earthly fame and treasure! All to leave, and follow thee; All I've sought, or hoped, or known, God and heaven are still my own! 2 Let the world despise and leave me, They have left my Saviour, too; Human hearts and looks deceive meThou 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. 3 Man may trouble and distress me, 'T will but drive me to thy breast, While thy love is left to me; I have called thee, Abba, Father! 5 Soul, then know thy full salvation, Something still to do or bear. Think what Spirit dwells within thee; Think what Father's smiles are thine; Think that Jesus died to win thee; Child of heaven, canst thou repine? 6 Haste thee on from grace to glory, Armed by faith, and winged by prayer! Heaven's eternal day's before thee, God's own hand shall guide thee there: Soon shall close thy earthly mission, Soon shall pass thy pilgrim days, Hope shall change to glad fruition, Faith to sight, and prayer to praise. ONE there is, above all others, NEWTON. 4 Jesus only, when, adoring, Well deserves the name of Friend; 2 Which of all our friends, to save us, Could or would have shed his blood? But our Jesus died to have us Reconciled in him to God. 3 When he lived on earth abaséd, Friend of sinners was his name; Now above all glory raised, He rejoices in the same. 4 Oh! for grace our hearts to soften, Teach us, Lord, at length, to love; We, alas! forget too often What a friend we have above. Saints their crowns before him bring; Jesus only, I will, joyous, Through eternal ages sing. ALWAYS with us, always with usWords of cheer and words of love; Thus the risen Saviour whispers, From his dwelling-place above. 2 With us when we toil in sadness, Sowing much and reaping none; Telling us that in the future Golden harvests shall be won. 3 With us when the storm is sweeping O'er our pathway dark and drear; Waking hope within our bosoms, Stilling every anxious fear. 4 With us in the lonely valley, When we cross the chilling stream; 19 767 lay my sins on Je-sus, The spotless Lamb of God; He bears them all, and frees us D. 8.

To wash my crimson stains 2 I lay my wants on Jesus; My burdens and my cares; This weary soul of mine; 4 I long to be like Jesus, 2 Soon as the morn, with roses 3 By thee, through life supported, What could an angel more?

JESUS, thy name I love, Oh! thou art all to me! 2 Thou, blesséd Son of God, Oh! how great is thy love, 3 When unto thee I flee, Jesus, my Lord! What need I now to fear? Jesus, my Lord! 4 Soon thou wilt come again! I shall be happy then, Jesus, my Lord! Then thine own face I'll see, Ps. 37:25. Now I have found a Friend Whose love shall never end; Jesus is mine. H.
