Ps. c. 1 BEFORE Jehovah's awful throne, 3 [We are his people, we his care, Our souls, and all our mortal frame: 4 We'll crowd thy gates with thankful songs, 5 Wide as the world is thy command, Firm as a rock thy truth must stand 5. P.M.-Public Worship. Ps. xcv. 1 O COME, let us sing to the Lord, In God, our salvation, rejoice; In psalms of thanksgiving record His praise, with one heart and one voice: For Jehovah is King, and he reigns, The God of all gods, on his throne: The strength of the hills he maintains, The ends of the earth are his own. 2 The sea is Jehovah's - he made The tide its dominion to know: The flock whom he guides with his rod. 3 As Moses the fathers of old, Through the sea and the wilderness led, His wonderful works we behold, With manna from heaven are fed; To-day let us hearken, to-day, To the voice that yet speaks from above, And all his commandments obey, For all his commandments are love. 4 His wrath let us fear to provoke, But, Oh! of rebellion beware, 6. P.M.-Public Worship. 1 LO! God is here! let us adore, Who know his power, his grace who prove, Serve him with awe, with reverence love. 2 Lo! God is here! Him day and night Th' united choirs of angels sing: To him enthron'd above all height, Heaven's host their noblest praises bring: Disdain not, Lord, our meaner song, Who serve thee with a stammering tongue. 3 Gladly the toys of earth we leave, Wealth, pleasure, fame, for thee alone; To thee our will, soul, flesh, we give; O take, O seal them for thine own! Thou art the God, thou art the Lord; Be thou by all thy works ador'd. 4 Being of Beings! may thy praise Thy courts with grateful fragrance fill: Still may we stand before thy face, Still hear and do thy sovereign will: To thee may all our thoughts arise, Ceaseless, accepted sacrifice! 7. C.M.-Reverential Worship. Isa. viii. 13. 1 HOLY and reverend is the name Of our Eternal King; Thrice holy Lord! the angels cry, 2 Holy is he in all his works, 3 The deepest reverence of the mind Lift with thy hands a holy heart 4 With sacred awe pronounce his name, 5 Thou, holy God! preserve my soul The pure in heart are thy delight, 8. C.M.-The day approaching, a motive to love and worship. 1 THE day approacheth, O my soul, Which, from the verge of mortal life, 2 Another day, more awful dawns; 3 Yet does one short preparing hour, Rouse thee, my soul, with all thy power, 4 With me my brethren soon must die, Now be our intercourse improv'd 5 For this thy temple, Lord, we throng; 9. C.M.-Worship in God's house, here and hereafter. Ps. xxiii. 6. 1 MY soul, triumphant in the Lord, Shall tell its joys abroad; And march with holy vigour on, 2 Through all the winding maze of life 3 His grace through all the desert flows, That grace on Zion's sacred mount 4 Beyond the choicest joys of earth 5 Mingled with all the shining band, 10. L.M.-The Lord's day morning. 1 ANOTHER six days' work is done, Return, my soul, enjoy thy rest, 2 Come, bless the Lord, whose love assigns So sweet a rest to weary minds; Provides an antepast of heaven, |
