O haste, victorious Prince,

That happy, glorious day,
When souls like drops of dew
Shall own thy gentle sway!

O may it bless our longing eyes,

And bear our shouts beyond the skies!

All hail, triumphant Lord!

Eternal be thy reign ;
Behold the nation sue

To wear the gentle chain :

When earth and time are known no more,

Thy throne shall stand forever sure.

ANAAN promis'd is before;
Come let us forward go,

Not the ocean, nor its roar,

Nor the Egyptian foe,

May obstruct, when God commands;
His pow'r on our behalf he shows:
Move we forward to the land,
Where milk with honey flows.

2 Pharaoh's hosts, our flesh and sense,
Press hard upon our rear;
Vainly strive to cause offence,
Or make the spirit fear;
God protects us in his hand,

Whilst vengeance on his foes he throws:

Move we forward to the land

Where milk with honey flows.

3 Roaring floods clap hands aloud,
To drive us back again;

Seas of trials vastly crowd
T'affright the sons of men:

Jesus bids us quiet stand,

Whilst he his great salvation shows :

Move we forward to the land,
Where milk with honey flows.
4 Seas divide before our face,
And stand upon an heap;
Mighty waters, by his grace,
Shrink from the fearful deep :
On we march at his command,
Nor dread the power of our foes :
Move we forward to the land,
Where milk with honey flows.

5 Love, which God to us doth shew,
Strikes the Egyptians dead;
Floods, which give us passage through,
Return upon their head:

Dead we see them on the strand,
Nor can they further us pursue;
We are in Immanuel's land,

Where milk with honey flows.

EHOLD the blind their sight receive!

Behold, the dead awake and live!
The dumb speak wonders! and the lan
Leap like the hart, and bless his name!
2 Thus doth th' Eternal Spirit own
And seal the mission of his Son;
The Father vindicates his cause,
While he hangs bleeding on the cross.

3 He dies! the heavens in mourning stood;
He rises, and ascends to God!

Behold the Lord ascending high,
No more to bleed, no more to die.
4 Hence and forever from my heart
I bid my doubts and fears depart;
And to those hands my soul resign,
Which bear credentials so divine.

AV

WAKE, and sing the song
Of Moses and the Lamb;

Wake ev'ry heart and ev'ry tongue,
To praise the Saviour's name.

Sing of his dying love;

Sing of his rising pow'r;

Sing how he intercedes above,
For those whose sins he bore.

Sing on your heavenly way,
Ye ransom'd sinners, sing;
Sing on, rejoicing ev'ry day,
In Christ th' eternal king.

Soon shall ye hear him say,
"Ye blessed children come;"

Soon will be call you hence away,
And take his wand'rers home.

Image of the Invisible. Heb. i. 3.

NOW, in the face of Jesus, we

God's brightest form of glory see;
Beaming with mild and heavenly rays,
He all his Father's grace displays.

2 Blest image of th' eternal God,
Here his rich glories shine abroad;
With a resplendent lustre shine
His pow'r, his truth, and love divine.
3 Of all creation the first born;

Of all that heaven's bright courts adorn,
He as a Prince and Sov'reign reigns,
Almighty pow'r his throne sustains.
4 It pleas'd th' eternal Fulness well,
In Christ the Lord alone to dwell;
From this rich Fountain freely flows
Complete relief for all our woes.

Begotten again unto a lively Hope. 1 Pet. i. 3, 4. 2 Cor. v. 1. Rom. viii. 24, 25.

B

LESS'D be the everlasting God,
The Father of our Lord:

Be his abounding mercy prais'd,

Mis Majesty ador'd.

2 When from the dead he rais'd his Son,
And call'd him to the sky,
He gave our souls a lively hope
That they should never die.

3 There's an inheritance divine
Reserv'd against that day;
"Tis uncorrupted, undefil'd,
And cannot waste away.

4 Saints by the power of God are kept,
Till the salvation come:

We walk by faith, as strangers here,
Till Christ shall call us home.

Praise. Ps. xliv. 8. lxvii. 7. cxxxvi. 1---4.
IGHTY God, while angels bless thee,
May an infant lisp thy name?

Lord of men, as well as angels,
Thou art ev'ry creature's theme.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujab, Amen.
2 Lord of ev'ry land and nation,
Ancient of eternal days!
Sounded through the wide creation
Be thy just and lawful praise.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Amen.

3 For the grandeur of thy nature,

Grand beyond a seraph's thought, For created works of power,

Works with skill and kindness wrought. Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Amen.

DD

4 For thy providence, that governs
Through thine empire's wide domain;
Wings an angel, guides a sparrow,
Blessed be thy gentle reign.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Amen.
5 But thy rich, thy free redemption,

Bright through darkness all along;
Thought is poor, and poor expression,
Who dare sing that awful song;
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Amen.
6 Brightness of the Father's glory,
Shall thy praise unutter'd lie?
Fly, my tongue, such guilty silence!
Sing the Lord who came to die.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Amen. ROBINSON.

Before Sermon. 1 Pet. iv. 11. 1 Chron. xvi. 29.

COME worship at our Father's feet;

See, in his face, what wonders meet!

Words are too feeble to express

His worth, his glory, or his grace.

2 When shall we climb those higher skies, Where storms and tempests never rise! Where he unveils his lovely face,

And shines and reigns the God of grace?

3 Nor earth, nor air, nor sun, nor stars,
Nor heaven, his full resemblance bears;
His beauties we can never trace,
Till we behold him face to face.

UR heavenly Father calls

And Christ invites us near;

With both, our friendship shall be sweet,

And our communion dear.
