4 Holy, holy, holy, cry;
Heav'n, and earth, and sea reply.
Trump of God! repeat the strain.
God with us ! pronounce Amen.

HYMN 11. L. M.

Aaron's Rod. Numb. xvii. 2, 5, 8. Psal. xxiii. 4.

1 SEE, Isr'el's tribes brought near to God;
And ev'ry prince present his rod :
Whilst one alone with blossoms blooms,
And sheds the almond's rich perfumes.
2 'Twas his, the type of him divine,
Whom thou, O Lord, hast chose as thine ;
The man, the priest, the stem, the root,
Who bears for us immortal fruit.

3 Jesus, High Priest of good to come!
Thy rod, thy staff, shall guide us home :
Through death's dark vale, we'll trust its pow'r,
Nor fear a shadow's shaded hour.

HYMN 12. L. M.

Cloud and Pillar of Fire. Ex. xl. 38. Numb. ix. 22. Isa.xv.7

1 LONG, as the dark'ning cloud abode,

So long did ancient Isr'el rest :
Nor mov'd they, till the guiding God,
In brighter garments stood confest.
2 Father of spirits! light of light!
Lift up the cloud, and rend the vail :
Shine forth in fire amid that night,
Whose blackness makes the heart to fail,
3 'Tis done! to Christ the pow'r is giv'n :
His death it rent the vail away.
Our great forerunner enters heav'n,
And opes th' eternal gates of day.

4 Nor shall those mists that brood o'er time, Forever blind the mental eye;

They backward roll, and light sublime,
Beams glory from the God on high.
5 Adoring nations hail his dawn,

All kingdoms bless the noontide beam,
And light unfolding life's full morn,
Is vast creation's deathless theme.

First Fruits. Lev. ii. 12. 1 Cor. xv. 20. Jas. i. 18. Rev. xiv. 4. vii.9. 1 BEHOLD! the grain of wheat that dies

Yet lives in nature's womb ;
Matur'd by death, to life arise,
A type of things to come.

2 This Isr'el saw in ancient days,
When dedicate to heav'n,

The first ripe sheaf, with songs of praise,
To God, their God, was given :

3 Here dwelt their hopes for time to come,
That he who blest that fruit,

Would bring the future harvest home,
A harvest like the root.

4 Hail! first begotten from the dead;
The church first born are thine-
Thine at thy coming. Then the head,
The head of man divine.

5 (Lord of a harvest yet to come)
The rest of earth shall reap;

And gath'ring his unnumber'd home,
One feast forever keep.

Shew Bread. Exod. xxv. 30. 1Cor. x. 17. John vi. 33.

1 How rich the types of future grace,

Which thro' the law are spread !

Aloud they preach th' eternal Son,
The true, the living bread.

2 From day to day till Jesus came,
His mystick form was shown;
Where all distinctions lost to view,
Of many made but one.

3 In him, nor Jew nor Gentile's found,
Christ's body forms one bread,

And all the diff'rent grains of wheat
Are one, in Christ the head.

Comforter of all that mourn. Is. lxi. 1--3. Jer. xxxi.13. Rev.xxi.4.

1 JESUS, comforter divine !
Consolations, Lord, are thine;
Mightiest comforts, full of good,
Worthy of the living God.

2 Thou shalt wipe all tears away,
Mid the blessed realms of day;
Thou shalt hush each rising sigh;
Sorrow, pain, and death, shall die.
3 Highest praises wait thy name,
Great unchanging, glorious same;
Jesus, comforter divine !

Praises, praises, Lord, be thine.

HYMN 16.

Counsellor. Isa, xi. 2.

C. M.

Zec. vi. 12, 13.

HAIL, Counsellor of peace, good will!

Glorious for God and man;

Thee we adore, on Zion's hill,
And bless thy gracious plan.

2 Faithful and true in ev'ry word,
Thy counsel wrote in blood,

Brings home the banish'd, to the Lord,
And makes their peace with God.

3 Jesus! can time, can life repay,
The mighty debt of love?

Ah! no. Then sound,ye harps of day,
And shout his name above.

HYMN 17. L. M.

Father. Isa. lxiii. 16. Psa. ciii. 22. cxlv. 9, 10.

1 FATHER of Angels and of men,

Of nature and of grace, the Lord.
Be thou in one eternal strain,
By all thy various works ador'd.

2 From heav'n to earth, from earth to heav'n,
Through worlds above and worlds below,
Thy boundless mercies freely giv’n,
In tides of bliss forever flow.

3 Sing, O ye heav'ns! burst into praise
Thou earth, and let the anthem roll,
Till rocks and tombs shall hear the lays,
And light and life embrace the whole.

HYNN 18. L. M.

Mighty God. Isai. xl. 10. lxii. 11. Psa. cxviii. 29.

1 HAIL, mighty, true, and living God,
Ancient of everlasting days;

Saviour of man, who shedd'st thy blood,
O teach us, worthily to praise.

2 Cloath'd with salvation-clad in zeal-
Arm'd with the vengeance of a God;
That power, which long had bruis'd the heel,
Beneath thy pierced feet was trod :

3 Spoil'd of his goods-the goods he held
In chains of darkness, guile, and fraud ;
The nature which by him rebell'd,
Now forms thy great, thy just reward.

4 Who shall hold back the Saviour's prey ? Or keep the captives of his blood?

Not earth, nor hell. More strong than they, Christ conquers as the mighty God.

HYMN 19. C.M.

Prince of Peace. Isa. ix. 6. xxvii. 5. Nah. i. 15.

JESUS, thou Prince, thou King of Peace,
And King of glory too;

O be thy blessed name ador❜d,

By Gentile and by Jew.

2 For Isr'el's tribes-for us, O Lord,
Eternal peace is made.

Our pardon's seal'd-'tis seal'd with blood,
The blood of Christ, our head:

3 Nor ours alone

the Head of man,

Of ev'ry man, art thou:

For ev'ry, man 'twas thine to die ;

The world to thee shall bow.

Zeal of the Lord of Hosts. Isa. ix. 7. lxiii. 4,5.

1 ZEAL of the Lord of hosts! thy zeal
Zealous to finish sin,

Shall of transgression make an end,
And righteousness bring in.

2 Yes! righteousness divine, complete,
The righteousness of God,

Imputed to the guilty soul,
By faith in Jesus' blood.

3 And will that God who gave his son,
Refuse this faith to give?

Sure, no.-It cannot, cannot be→→→
Man shall believe and live.
