He will present his saints

Unblemish'd and complete,
Before the glories of his face,

With joys divinely great.
Then all the chosen seed

Shall meet around the throne,
Shall bless the conduct of his grace,

And make his wonders known.
To our redeeming God;

Wisdom and power belongs;
Crown'd with immortal majesty,

And prais'd in endless songs.

36. The Lord our Shepherd. Ps. 23,

MICHAEL'S.
THE Lord supplies his people's need,

Jehovah is his name;
In pastures fair he makes us feed,

Beside the living stream,
He brings our wand'ring spirits back,

When we forsake his ways,
And leads us for his mercy's sake,

In paths of truth and grace.
When walking thro' the shades of death,

His presence is our stay;
A word of his supporting breath,

Drives all our fears away.

His hand, in sight of all our foes,

Doth still our table spread,
Our cup with blessings overflows,

His oil anoints our head.
The sure provisions of our God

Attend us all our days;
May his dear house be our abode,

And all our work his praise ! 37. Christ our Wisdom, Righteousness, Sanctification, and Redemption.

OLD HUNDREDTH. BURY'D in shadows of the night,

We lie till Christ restores the light; Wisdom descends to heal the blind, And chase the darkness of the mind. Our guilty souls are drown'd in tears, Till his atoning blood appears: Then we awake from deep distress, And sing, “The Lord our Righteousness."

” Jesus beholds where Satan reigns, Binding his slaves in heavy chains; He sets the prisoners free, and breaks The iron bondage from their necks, Poor helpless worms in thee possess Grace, wisdom, power, and righteousness; Thou art our mighty All; may we Give our whole selves, O Lord, to thee.

38. The Pilgrim's Song:

DARTFORD.

RISE, my soul, and stretch thy wings,

Thy better portion trace; Rise from transitory things,

Towards heaven, thy native place. Sun, and moon, and stars decay,

Time shall soon this earth remove; Rise, my soul, and haste away

To seats prepar'd above.

Rivers to the ocean run,

Nor stay in all their course; Fire ascending seeks the sun;

Both speed them to their source: Thus a soul new-born of God,

. Pants to view his glorious face, Upward tends to his abode,

To rest in his embrace.

:

Cease, ye pilgrims, cease to mourn,

Press onward to the prize!
Soon the Saviour will return
Triumphant in the skies:

and
you

know Happy entrance will be giv’n, All our sorrows left below,

And earth exchang'd for heav'n.

Yet a season,

39. Heavenly Joy on Earth.

MILLER'S.

COME, ye that love the Lord,

And let your joys be known; Join in a song with sweet accord,

While ye surround the throne.

The sorrows of the mind,

Be banish'd from this place;
Religion never was design'd

To make our pleasures less.
The men of grace have found

Glory begun below;
And heay’nly fruits on earthly ground,

From faith and hope will grow.
The hill of Zion yields

A thousand holy sweets,
Before we reach the heav'nly fields,

Or walk the golden streets.
Then let our songs abound,

And every tear be dry;
We're marching thro' Immanuel's ground,

To fairer worlds on high

40. Rejoice evermore. 1 Thess. v. 16.

.

PORTSMOUTH NEW.

REJOICE, the Lord is King;

Your Lord and King adore:
Mortals, give thanks and sing,

And triumph evermore.
Lift up your hearts, lift up your voice,
Rejoice, again I say rejoice.
Jesus the Saviour reigns,

The God of truth and love!
When he had purg'd our stains,

He took his seat above.
Lift up your hearts, &c.
His kingdom cannot fail,

He rules o'er earth and heaven;
The keys of death and hell,

Are to our Jesus given.
Lift up your hearts, &c.
Rejoice in glorious hope,

Jesus the Judge shall come,
And take his pilgrims up

To their eternal home:
We soon shall hear th' archangel's voice,
The trump of God shall sound, Rejoice.
