2 Thou, who with "still small voice 4 Thou, who dost fill the heart With love to all our race, Blest Comforter! to us impart The blessings of thy grace. 5 BLEST be the tie that binds Our hearts in Christian love; Before our Father's throne We pour our ardent prayers: Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, We share our mutual woes, Our mutual burdens bear, And often for each other flows The sympathizing tear. When we asunder part, It gives us inward pain; But we shall still be joined in heart, And hope to meet again. This glorious hope revives Our courage by the way; While each in expectation lives, And longs to see the day. 6 From sorrow, toil, and pain, And perfect love and friendship reign, 326 0!

Prophets and kings desired it long, But died without the sight. 5 The watchmen join their voice, And tuneful notes employ; Jerusalem breaks forth in songs, And deserts learn the joy. 6 The Lord makes bare his arm Through all the earth abroad: Let every nation now behold Their Saviour and their God.

Yet heaven and earth and hell Proclaim-God sitteth on the throne, And ruleth all things well. 334 THE day is past and gone, The evening shades appear; O may we all remember well, The night of death draws near. 2 We lay our garments by, Upon our beds to rest; So death will soon disrobe us all Of what is here possessed. Yet, Lord, our inmost thoughts delight 3 Lord, keep us safe this night, To dwell upon thy grace. 3 And when we taste thy love, Our joys divinely grow, Unspeakable, like those above, 332 OLEST are the sons of peace, Bwhose hearts and hopes are one; Whose kind designs to serve and Through all their actions run.[please.
