4 Then shall Thy saints exulting sing, And each glad heart its tribute bring; Pardon and peace shall then be given, And earth resound with songs of heaven. For Divine Guidance. 54. 8,7,4. GUIDE me, O Thou great Jehovah! Feed me now and evermore. 2 Open now the crystal fountain, Lead me all my journey through: Be Thou still my strength and shield, 55. Songs of praises I will ever give to Thee. Psalm LV. 6. HAD I the wings of a dove, I'd mix with the spirits above, P.M. gone; Who encompass yon heavenly throne: I'd fly from all labour and toil, To the place where the weary have rest; I'd haste from contention and broil To the peaceful abode of the blest. 2 Around that magnificent throne, His people are singing His praise : FATHER, whate'er of earthly bliss Accepted at Thy throne of grace, 2 "Give me a calm, a thankful heart, 3 66 "The blessings of Thy grace impart, "And make me live to Thee. Let the sweet hope that Thou art mine 66 "Thy presence through my journey shine, And crown my journey's end." 57. 66 Power of Prayer. THERE is an eye that never sleeps There is an ear that never shuts, 2 There is an arm that never tires, C.M. 3 There is a power which man can wield, That eye, that arm, that love to reach, 4 That power is pray'r which soars on high, To God for ever kind, To bring rich blessings from above, 58. Providence. C.M. GOD moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform; He plants His footsteps in the sea, 2 Deep in unfathomable mines He treasures up His bright designs, 3 Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take; 4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, 5 His purposes will ripen fast, The bud may have a bitter taste, 6 Blind unbelief is sure to err, God is His own interpreter, 59. For Faith in Christ. HOW sad our state by nature is! And Satan binds our captive souls 2 But there's a voice of sovereign grace 3 To the dear fountain of Thy blood 4 A guilty, weak, and helpless worm, C.M. Be Thou my strength and righteousness, My Jesus and my all. 60. Missionary Hymn. 6,8. CHRISTIANS! the glorious hope ye know, Which soothes the heart in every woe; While heathens helpless, hopeless lie: ray of glory meets their eye. No Oh, give to their desiring sight The hope that Jesus brought to light. 2 Christians! ye taste the heavenly grace Which cheers believers in their race; Uncheer'd by grace, thro' heathen gloom, See millions hastening to the tomb. To heathen lands, that grace convey, Which trains the soul for endless day. 3 Christians! ye prize the Saviour's blood, In which the soul is cleans'd for God; Millions of souls in darkness dwell, Uncleansed from sin, expos'd to hell. Oh! strive, that heathens soon may view That precious blood which cleanseth you. 61. Christ's Second Coming. L.M. THE Lord will come! the earth shall quake, The mountains to their centre shake; And withering from the vaults of night, The stars shall pale their feeble light. 2 The Lord will come! but not the same As once in lowly form He came, A silent lamb to slaughter led, The bruis'd, the suffering, and the dead. 3 The Lord will come! a dreadful form, With wreath of flame, and robe of storm, On cherub-wings, and wings of wind, Appointed Judge of all mankind! 4 Can this be He who wont to stray 5 Go, tyrants! to the rocks complain! |
