2"I'll make your great commission known,
And ye shall prove my gospel true
By all the works that I have done,
By all the wonders ye shall do.
3"Teach all the nations my commands;
I'm with you till the world shall end;
All power is vested in my hands;
I can destroy, and I defend."

4 He spake, and light shone round his head;
On a bright cloud to heaven he rode;
They to the farthest nations spread
The grace of their ascended Lord.

1 FATHER of mercies, bow thine ear,
Attentive to our earnest prayer:
We plead for those who plead for thee;
Successful pleaders may they be.
20 clothe their words with power divine,
And let those words be ever thine;
To them thy sacred truth reveal,
Suppress their fear, inflame their zeal.
3 Teach them to sow the precious seed;
Teach them thy chosen flock to feed;
Teach them the souls of men to gain;
Nor let them labor, Lord, in vain.
4 Let thronging multitudes around

Hear from their lips the joyful sound,
In humble strains thy grace implore,
And feel thy Spirit's living power.

Benjamin Beddome.

2 Men die in darkness at your side Without a hope to cheer the tomb: Take up the torch and wave it wideThe torch that lights time's thickest gloom.

3 Toil on, faint not, keep watch, and pray!
Be wise the erring soul to win,
Go forth into the world's highway,
Compel the wanderer to come in.
4 Go, labor on your hands are weak,

Your knees are faint, your soul cast down;
Yet falter not; the prize you seek

Is near, a kingdom and a crown!

Horatius Bonar.

3 While place we seek, or place we shun,
The soul finds happiness in none;
But with our God to guide our way,
'Tis equal joy to go or stay.

William Cowper.
