AS SHADOWS cast by cloud and sun,

Flit o'er the summer grass,

So, in thy sight, Almighty One,
Earth's generations pass.
And as the years, an endless host,
Come swiftly pressing on,

The brightest names that earth can boast
Just glisten and are gone.

2 Yet doth the star of Bethlehem shed A lustre pure and sweet;

And still it leads, as once it led,

To the Messiah's feet.

O Father, may that holy star

Grow every year more bright, And send its glorious beams afar To fill the world with light.

THE mercies of my God and King
My tongue shall still pursue:
Oh, happy they, who, while they sing
Those mercies, share them too!
As bright and lasting as the sun,

As lofty as the sky,

From age to age, thy word shall run,
And chance and change defy.

2 The covenant of the King of kings
Shall stand for ever sure;
Beneath the shadow of thy wings
Thy saints repose secure.
In earth below, in heaven above,

Who, who is Lord like thee?
Oh, spread the gospel of thy love,
Till all thy glories see!

AGAIN the day returns of holy rest

Which, when he made the world, Jehovah blessed;

So shall he hear when fervently we raise
Our supplications and our songs of praise,

confide,

When, like his own, he bade our labors cease, Whose power defends us and whose preAnd all be piety and all be peace.

2 Let us devote this consecrated day To learn his will, and all we learn obey;

In life our Guardian and in death our Friend,
Glory supreme be thine till time shall end.

I THE Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not | want; || he maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside the | still-waters.

2 He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. || Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy | staff they | comfort me.

3 Thou preparest a table before me, in the presence of mine enemies; thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. || Surely goodness and mercy shall fol low me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. || A-men.

Palm 130.

I OUT of the depths || Have I cried unto to thee, O Lord! ||

2 Lord, hear my voice: || Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my suppli- | cations. ||

3 If thou, Lord, shouldst mark in- | iquities, || O Lord! who shall stand? ||

4 But there is forgiveness with thee, || That thou mayest be feared. ||

5

I wait for the Lord, my soul doth | wait, || And in his word do I hope. ||

6 My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: || I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

7 Let Israel hope in the | Lord; || For with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption. [

8 And he shall redeem | Israel || From all his in- | iquities. ||

1 WE praise thee, | O- God; || we acknowledge | thee to be the | Lord. || All the earth doth worship | thee, || the Father | ever- | last--| ing. ||

2 To thee all angels | cry a- loud, || the heavens, and all the powers there- | in. To thee cherubim and seraphim, con- tinually do | cry, || Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of Saba- oth; ||

3 Heaven and earth are full of the majesty of thy glory.

The glorious company of the apostles praise thee. The goodly fellowship of the prophets | praise—| thee.

The noble army of martyrs | praise thee. || The holy church throughout all the world doth ac- | knowledge | thee, ||

4 The Father, of an | infinite | majesty; || thine adorable, | true and only | Son; || Also the Holy Ghost, the | Comforter. || Thou art the King of glory, O Christ, thou art the everlasting | Son of the | Father. ||

5 When thou tookest upon thee to de- | liver | man, || thou didst humble thyself to be born of a virgin. ||

When thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death, || thou didst open the kingdom of heaven to all be- | lievers. I

6 Thou sittest at the right hand of God, in the glory of the | Father. || We believe that thou shalt | come to be our judge.

We therefore pray thee, | help thy | servants, || whom thou hast redeemed with thy | precious blood. ||

7 Make them to be numbered | with thy | saints, || in | glory | ever- | lasting. ||

O Lord, save thy people, and bless thine | heritage; || govern them and lift them up for-ever. ||

8 Day by day we | magni- fy | thee; || and we worship thy name ever, | world without end. ||

Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us this day with-out | sin; || O Lord, have mercy upon us have mer-cy up-on-❘ us. ||

9 O Lord, let thy mercy | be up- | on us, || as our | trust is in | thee.

O Lord, in thee have I trusted; || let me | never | be con- | founded. || A- } men. |}
