4 Men of worldly, low design,

Let not these thy people join,
Till they nothing know beside

Jesus, and him crucified.
5 Save us from the great and wise,

Till they sink in their own eyes,
Tamely to thy yoke submit,

Lay their honours at thy feet. 6 Never let the world break in,

Fix a mighty gulf between;
Keep us lowly and unknown,
Priz'd and lov'd of thee alone.

388. 7's. Wesley's Coll.

Prayer for Union und Holiness.
JESUS Lord, we look to thee,
Show thyself the Prince of Peace,

Bid our jars for ever cease. 2 By thy reconciling love,

Every stumbling-block remove,
Each to each unite-endear;

Come, and spread thy banner here. 3 Make us of one heart and mind,

Courteous, pitiful and kind,
Lowly, meek in thought and word;

Make us like our blessed Lord. 4 Let us each for other care,

Each the other's burden bear,
To the world the pattern give-

Show how true believers live.
5 Free from anger-free from pride,

Let us thus in God abide;
All the depths of love express,
All the heights of holiness.

Come forth and make it known, Be buried in the yielding stream,

His pleasing rule obey,
And every power for him employ,

Through all life's future way.
3 Why will you longer stay behind ?

Behold there still is room!
Let all whu are by grace inclin'd,
Though trembling, rise and come.

Of love and union dear; Within the gate of Zion stand,

Thy never-failing end; To glorify his sacred name,

And show thyself his friend.

HOME in, ye blessed of our God, Wash'd in the Saviour's cleansing blood,

For him, your Lord, appear. 2 Stay not within the wilderness,

Nor waiting at the door;
Sweet Jesus will your woes redress,

Were they ten thousand more.
3 Though fearing, trembling, rise and come!

Yield to the Saviour's voice;
For hung'ring, thirsting souls, there's room;

O make the blissful choice!
4 Room in the Saviour's gracious breast-

That breast which glows with love; Room in the church, his chosen rest,

And room in heaven above. 5 Why will you longer lingering stay,

When Jesus says, “there's room ?
• Now is the time, th'accepted day-
• Arise! he bids you come!

Your Saviour's boundless goodness prove,
And feast on his redeeming love.

Why should you longer fear or doubt?
Why will you longer lingering wait?

O enter now fair Zion's gate!
3 Let every soul that's born again,

No longer wait, but now come in;
Yield to the Lord, and thence receive
Whate'er a pardoning God can give.

394. C. M.

Dedication to God. WASHD in the Saviour's cleansing blood, I now approach thy throne, my God,

And sing thy power to save. 2 I yield to thy divine control;

To thee I all resign;
O take my flesh, my heart, my soul,

And make me wholly thine.
3 Thine may I live, thine may I die,

And thine for ever be ;
Fain would I soar to worlds on high,
And lose myself in thee.
