6 Let it hallow my heart,
And throughly convert,
And make me, O LORD,
In this world as thou art.

7 Each moment apply'd
My weakness to hide,
Thy blood be upon me,
And always abide,

8 My Advocate prove
With the Father above,
And raise me at last

I

To the throne of thy love.

HYMN 296..

DEDICATION TO GOD.

ALL glory and praife

To th' Ancient of days,

Who was born and was flain
To redeem a loft race,
2 Salvation to God,
Who carry'd our load,
And purchas'd our peace
With the price of his blood.

3 And fhall he not have
The lives which he gave
Such an infinite ransom
For ever to fave?

4 Yes, LORD, we are thine,
And gladly refign

Our fouls to be fill'd

With the fulness divine.

5 We yield thee thine own,
We'd serve thee alone,
Thy will upon earth

As in heav'n be done.

6 How, when it fhall be,
We cannot foresee;

But O let us live,

Let us die unto thee

THANKFUL for our ev'ry bleffing,
Let us fing

CHRIST the spring,

Never, never ceafing

2 Source of all our gifts and graces,

CHRIST We own,

CHRIST alone

Calls for all our praises.

3 He difpels our fin and fadness, Life imparts,

Chears our hearts,

Fills with food and gladnefs

4 He himself for us hath given, Us he feeds,

Us he leads

To a feaft in heaven.

HYMN 298.

I FATHER of mankind,
Be ever ador'd;

Thy mercy we find

In fending our LORD
To ransom and blefs us;
Thy goodness we praise
For fending in JESUS'
Salvation by grace.

2O Son of his love,

Who deigneft to die,
Our curfe to remove,
Our pardon to buy;
Accept our thanksgiving,
Almighty to fave,
Who openest heaven
To all that believe.

3 O Spirit of love,

Of health and of pow'r,
Thy working we prove,
Thy grace we adore:
Whofe inward revealing
Applies our LORD's blood,
Attefting and fealing
Us children of GOD.

HYMN 299.

Let thy love our hearts conftrain,
JESUS, the crucify'd!

What haft thou done our hearts to gain?
Languish'd, and groan'd, and dy'd!

2 Us into closeft union draw,
And in our inward parts

Let kindness sweetly write her law,
Let love command our hearts.

3 Who wou'd not now purfue the way
Where JESU's footsteps fhine?

Who wou'd not own the pleasing sway
Of charity divine ?

4 O let us find the ancient way,

Our wond'ring foes to move,

And force a frowning world to fay,
SEE HOW THESE CHRISTIANS LOVE!

ORD help us on thy love to feed;
In peace difmifs us hence ;

Be thou, in ev'ry time of need,
Our refuge and defence.

2 We now defire to blefs thy name,

And in our hearts record,

And with our thankful tongues proclaim
The goodness of the LORD.

HYMN 301.

COME, O my foul, and fing

How JESUS hath thee fed;
How JESUS gave himself for thee,
The true and living bread.
2 I love my Saviour CHRIST;
His grace did freely move,
And justly my affections claim
I cannot help but love.
3 I love thee, O my LORD;
I gladly thee adore:

O may I never turn again!

[ocr errors]

But love thee more and more.

4 O raise my feeble flame;

My little stock improve:
Increase my ardour day by day,
And change me all to love.

HYMN 302.

UR lives, our blood, we here prefent,
If for thy fake they may be spent ;
Fulfil thy fov'reign counfel, LORD,
Thy will be done, thy name ador'd.

2 Give us thy strength, thou GoD of pow'r; Then let men scorn, and Satan ́roar; Thy faithful witneffes we'll be:

'Tis fix'd-we can do all thro' thee.
