Love to man his soul sustained ! 3 Calvary's mournful mountain view; Dying on th' accursed tree: 4 Early to the tomb repair, Where they laid his breathless clay; Angels kept their vigils there: Who hath taken him away ? "Christ is risen!" he seeks the skies; Saviour! teach us so to rise. 1 MONTGOMERY. HYMN 268. C. M. Woodstock. [b] Christ precious. 1 Pet. ii, 7. How sweet the name of JESUS sounds In a believer's ear! It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds, 2 It makes the wounded spirit whole, 3 By him, my pray'rs acceptance gain, Satan accuses me in vain, And I am own'd a child, 4 Weak is the effort of my heart, 5 Till then, I would thy love proclaim, And may the music of thy name NEWTON.
