4 "His own soft hand shall wipe the tears And pains and groans, and griefs and tears, 5 How long, dear Saviour, O how long Fly swifter round, ye wheels of time, 302. L. M. RICHARDS. The Cloud and Pillar of Fire. 1 LONG as the darkening cloud abode, 2 Father of spirits, Light of light, Lift up the cloud, and rend the veil, Whose blackness makes the heart to fail. 3 'Tis done! to Christ the power is given; 4 Nor shall those mists that brood o'er time, 5 Adoring nations hail the dawn, All kingdoms bless the noontide beam, 303. 304. 1 COME, kingdom of our God, 2 Over our spirits first Extend thy healing reign; There raise and quench the sacred thirst 3 Come, kingdom of our God! 4 Soon may all tribes be blest 5 Come, kingdom of our God! 10s. M. The Kingdom of Christ. ASHWORTH. POUR, blessed Gospel, glorious news for man! Thy stream of life o'er springless deserts roll: Thy bond of peace the mighty earth can span, And make one brotherhood from pole to pole. 2 On, piercing Gospel, on! of every heart, In every latitude, thou own'st the key: From their dull slumbers savage souls shall start, With all their treasures first unlocked by thee! 3 Tread, kingly Gospel, through the nations tread 4 Spread, giant Gospel, spread thy growing wings! Gather thy scattered ones from every land: Call home the wanderers to the King of kings Proclaim them all thine own; -'t is Christ's command! 305. 7s. M. Christ's Triumph. MONTGOMERY 1 HARK! the song of jubilee, Loud as mighty thunders roar, When it breaks upon the shore; God omnipotent shall reign; Echo round the earth and main. 2 Hallelujah!-hark! the sound, 306. Heard through earth, and through the skies All creation's harmonies: Sheathed his sword; he speaks,-'t is done Are the kingdoms of his Son. 7s. M. The Progress of the Gospel. C. WESLEY. 1 SEE how great a flame aspires, 307. To bring fire on earth he came : Small and feeble was his day: Sin's strong-holds it now o'erthrows, 3 Saw ye not the cloud arise, Now it spreads along the skies, 1 THOU, whose wide extended sway In prospective, Lord, we see 2 Thou by all shalt be confessed, 308. Thou shalt bring the sore oppresse:1; 3 When destroying death shall die, 309. Then shall praises fill the sky, 7s. M. 61. SPIRIT OF THE PEALM Glory of the Church. 1 ON thy church, O Power Divine, Hail her as their guiding star; 2 Then shall God, with lavish hand, 11s. & 10s. [PECULIAR.] J. G. ADAMS.
