This, this is he, on whom the Lord

Shall shower His blessings down,

Whom God his Saviour shall vouchsafe With righteousness to crown.

ERECT your heads, eternal gates,

Unfold to entertain

The King of glory; see, He comes. With His celestial train.

Who is this King of glory? who?

The Lord for strength renown'd; In battle mighty, o'er His foes.

Eternal victor crown'd.

Erect your heads, ye gates, unfold In state to entertain

The King of glory; see, He comes

With all His shining train.

Who is this King of glory? who?
The Lord of hosts renown'd;
Of glory He alone is King,

Who is with glory crown'd.

I.—(5, 6, 7.)
THY mercies manifold

Remember, Lord, I pray :
In pity Thou art plentiful,
And so hast been alway.
Remember not the faults
And frailty of my youth;
Call not to mind how ignorant
I have been of Thy truth:
Nor after my deserts
Let me Thy mercy find;
But of Thine own benignity,
Lord, have me in Thy mind.

ET all the just to God with joy Their cheerful voices raise, For well the righteous it becomes To sing glad songs of praise. By His Almighty word at first

The heavenly arch was rear'd, And all the beauteous hosts of light At His command appear'd. The swelling floods, together roll'd, He makes in heaps to lie; And lays, as in a storehouse, safe, The wat'ry treasures by. Let earth, and all that dwell therein, Before Him trembling stand;

For when He spake the word 'twas made, "Twas fix'd at His command.

II. (12. 20, 21, 22.) HOW happy are the folk, to whom

The Lord for God is known; Whom He from all the world besides

Has chosen for His own!

Our soul on God with patience waits,

Our help and shield is He; Then, Lord, let still our hearts rejoice, Because we trust in Thee.

The riches of Thy mercy, Lord,

Do Thou to us extend; Since we for all we want or wish 'On Thee alone depend.

[life,

THROUGH all the changing scenes of
In trouble and in joy,
The praises of my God shall still
My heart and tongue employ.
Of His deliv'rance I will boast,
Till all that are distress'd
From my example comfort take,

And charm their griefs to rest.
O magnify the Lord with me,

With me exalt His Name:
When in distress to Him I call'd,
He to my rescue came.

O make but trial of His love,
Experience will decide,

How bless'd are they, and only they,
Who in His truth confide.
