In ev'ry twinkling ray of light, 5 The universal whole Proclaims Jehovah's praise ; And O, that ev'ry living soul Would songs of honour raise ! 6 The worlds were made in love, By wisdom all divine; And while in praise my tongue can move, That praise, O Lord, be thine ! HYMN 274. S. M. SALVATION! O the thought! 2 Salvation, O the song! Let all the world proclaim, 3 Salvation, rich and free, Salvation, long and broad, Salvation for such worms as we, 'Tis all the work of God. 4 He works to will and do, The Alpha is his name, And he the great Omega too, All glory to the Lamb. JEHOVAH Jesus is my Lord. I trust in him alone ; 2 Am I a sinner in his sight, And humbled for my guilt? To save and heal is his delight, For me his blood was spilt. 3 Am I athirst for living wine ? The fountain's full and free ; Jesus will give the truth, divine, He promis'd it to me. 4. Am I desiring heav'nly bread GREAT God, we give thee praise For all thy wond'rous grace ! Thy kind and condescending ways To our poor fallen race! 3 Thou hast thy love reveal'd Beyond what prophets knew ; The holy book of truth unseal'd To our astonish'd view. 3 We wander now no more But truth in sacred light explore, 4 The letter of thy word Before we hardly knew ; And in our awful darkness, Lord, 5 But now its inward sense We learn thine heav'nly doctrines thence, 6 Lord, we adore thy name, From thee the welcome mercies came, And be the glory thine!

Now we are met from diff'rent parts ; 2 May this a striking emblem be, Of that great meeting all must see : 3 Be with us, Jesus, while we stay, And guide us when we praise or pray; In all we do, may we proclaim HYMN 278. S. M. BUT O, what wonders rise To our astonish'd view! The clouds are driven from the skies, And all the scene is new. 2 No more a fruitless strife The word is spirit, truth, and life, 3 The word is all divine, Its inmost is the Lord; His glories through the letter shine, 4 Now Jesus gives to know And doth to all his church below 5 None but the Lord can make HYMN 279. L. M. BOLD is the man, who dares to curse 2 He that condemns one soul on earth, He doth condemn himself to death, 3 Since Jesus Christ contains the whole, 4 The man that doth one soul despise, 5 Christ is our Head, we join to him, That if we harm the smallest limb, 6 With Christ we all were crucify'd, And with him we shall live and reign. HYMN 280. P. M. YE angels that surround the throne, 2 But you the children of his love, |
