Ever Flowing.

J. R. S.

JNO. R. SWENEY.

1. There's a fountain, precious fountain, Ever flowing deep and wide, 2. Precious fountain, mercy brought me, Helpless, to its crimson stream; 3. In that fountain ye who languish, 'Neath the heavy chain you bear,

Opened once on Calvary's mountain, In my dear Redeemer's side.
On a desert wild she sought me, Cheered me with her loving beam.
Plunge, and lose your weight of anguish ; Rise eternal life to share.

All who come in faith believing, All who plunge beneath its wave,
Precious fountain, I can never Tell the peace its waves impart,
With a lowly contrite spirit, Tell the Savior all your woe,

Chorus-next page.

Endless

life are now receiving, From the Lord who died to save. How it saves me, now and ever, Fills with constant joy my heart. Plead in faith his gracious merit-He will wash you white as snow.

1. God shall charge his an-gel le-gions Watch and ward o'er thee to keep; 2. Since with pure and firm af- fec-tion Thou on God hast set thy love,

Tho' thou walk thro' hostile re-gions, Tho' in desert wilds thou sleep; With the wings of his pro-tec-tion He will shield thee from a-bove;

On the li on vain-ly roar-ing, On his young thy foot shall tread, Thou shalt call on him in trou-ble, He will heark-en, he will save;

And the drag on's den exploring,Thou shalt bruise the serpent's head. Here for grief re-ward thee double,Crown with life beyond the grave.

Clorious Things.

1 Glorious things of thee are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
He, whose word can not be broken,
Formed thee for his own abode;
On the Rock of ages founded,

What can shake thy sure repose? With salvation's wall surrounded, Thou may'st smile at all thy foes.

2 Round each habitation hovering, See the cloud and fire appear! For a glory and a covering, Showing that the Lord is near: He who gives us daily manna,

He who listens when we cry, Let him hear the loud hosanna Rising to his throne on high.
