Wake, every heart, and every tongue,
To praise the Saviour's name!

2 Sing of his dying love:

Sing of his rising power:
Sing how he intercedes above
For those whose sins he bore.

3 Sing on your heavenly way,
Ye ransomed sinners, sing!
Sing on, rejoicing every day

In Christ, th' exalted King.

4 Soon shall we hear him say,

"Ye blessed children, come!"
Soon will he call us hence away
To our eternal home.

5 Soon shall our raptured tongue
His endless praise proclaim,
And sweeter voices tune the song
Of Moses and the Lamb.

Ps. 84.

YOME, we who love the Lord,
And let our joys be known;
Join in a song of sweet accord,
And thus surround the throne.

2 Let those refuse to sing

Who never knew our God;
But children of the heavenly King
May speak their joys abroad.
3 The men of grace have found
Glory begun below;

Celestial fruits on earthly ground
From faith and hope may grow.

4 The hill of Zion yields

A thousand sacred sweets,

Before we reach the heavenly fields,
Or walk the golden streets.

5 Then let our songs abound,
And every tear be dry;

We're marching through Immanuel's ground,
To fairer worlds on high.

Psalm 103.

H, bless the Lord, my soul !
Let all within me join,

And aid my tongue to bless his name,
Whose favors are divine.

2 Oh, bless the Lord, my soul!
Nor let his mercies lie
Forgotten in unthankfulness,
And without praises die.

3 'Tis he forgives thy sins;
"T is he relieves thy pain;
"T is he that heals thy sicknesses,
And makes thee young again.

4 He crowns thy life with love,

When ransomed from the grave;
He who redeemed my soul from hell,
Hath sovereign power to save.

WATTS.

HROUGH all the changing scenes of life,
in trouble and in joy,

The praises of my God shall still
My heart and tongue employ.
2 Oh, magnify the Lord with me,
With me exalt his name!
When in distress to him I called,
He to my rescue came.

3 The hosts of God encamp around
The dwellings of the just ;
Deliverance he affords to all
Who on his succor trust.

4 Oh, make but trial of his love:
Experience will decide

How blest are they, and only they,
Who in his truth confide.

Ps. 149 2.

SING, ye redeemed of the Lord,

Your great Deliverer sing;
Pilgrims for Zion's city bound,
Be joyful in your King.

2 His hand divine shall lead you on
Through all the blissful road,
Till to the sacred mount you rise
And see your smiling God.

DODDRIDGE.

3 There garlands of immortal joy
Shall bloom on every head;

While sorrow, sighing, and distress,
Like shadows, all are fled.

4 March on in your Redeemer's strength;
Pursue his footsteps still;

And let the prospect cheer your eye,
While laboring up the hill.

"Praise ye the Lord."

IFT up to God the voice of praise,
Whose breath our souls inspired;
Loud and more loud the anthems raise,
With grateful ardor fired.

2 Lift up to God the voice of praise,
Whose goodness, passing thought,
Loads every moment, as it flies,
With benefits unsought.

3 Lift up to God the voice of praise,
From whom salvation flows;

Who sent his Son our souls to save
From everlasting woes.

4 Lift up to God the voice of praise,
For hope's transporting ray,

WARDLAW.

Which lights through darkest shades of death
To realms of endless day.

NOME, all ye saints of God,

C

Wide through the earth abroad
Spread Jesus' fame:

Tell what his love hath done;
Trust in his name alone;

Shout to his lofty throne,

66

Worthy the Lamb!"

2 Hence, gloomy doubts and fears!
Dry up your mournful tears;
Swell the glad theme:

To Christ, our gracious King,
Strike each melodious string;
Join heart and voice to sing,
"Worthy the Lamb!"

3 Hark! how the choirs above,
Filled with the Saviour's love,
Dwell on his name!

There, too, may we be found,
With light and glory crowned,
While all the heavens resound,
"Worthy the Lamb!"

2 Cor. 13: 14.

NOME, thou almighty King,

Help us to praise !
