4 The men of grace have found
Glory begun below:

Celestial fruit on earthly ground,
From faith and hope may grow:
Then let our songs abound,

And every tear be dry:

We're marching thro' Immanuel's ground To fairer worlds on high.

HYMN 128. 8's and 7's.

1 Come, thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing thy grace:
Streams of mercy never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise :
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount-I'm fixed upon it-
Mount of thy redeeming love.

2 Here I'll raise my Ebenezer,

Hither by thy help I'm come;
And I hope, by thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed his precious blood.

3 Ken ten rat wa gat ka ro te,
Ni ya de weh ni s'ra geh !
Ta gon sa ya ne renh se ra,
Toh sa te dya dek hah si.
Wa gya tah tonhs O! skwa ta go
Ge nya genhs ne Ni yoh neh !
Koh a gwe ri Ni yoh je nah,

Gon ya tah kwea nya yen hahs'.

TEYERIHWAHKWATHA 129. 6 lines 8's.

1 Ka ro ka seht sat ha hi ne,

Enh ske nak tot hah se non wa,
Nok ten de ni rih wa gen hen.

2 Se rih wi saks onh ka ni ih,

Ok onh ka gon rih wa non ton ?
Ne i se ox ha tak ro ri.

3 O, to grace how great a debtor Daily I'm constrained to be! Let thy goodness, like a fetter,

Bind my wandering heart to thee: Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it ; Prone to leave the God I love : Here's my heart, O take and seal it— Seal it for thy court's above.

HYMN 129. 6 lines 8's.

Wrestling Jacob.

1 Come, O thou traveller unknown, Whom still I hold, but cannot see ;

My company before is gone,

And I am left alone with thee: With thee all night I mean to stay, And wrestle till the break of day.

2 I need not tell thee who I am;

My misery and my sin declare; Thyself has called me by my name, Look on they hands and read it there : But who, I ask thee, who art thou? Tell me thy name and tell me now.

3 Sha he thoh en deh sah kwis ron,
Yah tha on sa gon yaht ka we;
I se genh ta gwen he ya seh?
Toh sa ta ge rih wah seh te;
Ten dya dye nah ji ni yo re,
Enh skro ri onh ka ne i se.

4 Sen ha genh en se rih wah seht'?
Sah sea na yah tha ah skro ri,
O tak ro ri wa gon ne gen,
Tka gon te en wak to gen se.
Ten dya dye na ji ni yo re,
Enh skro ri onh ka ne i se.

5 She gon nen wak hwis hen he yon, Ne ok en ga da di ten re;

O rih wi yo enh skat kets koh,
I se enh skya tah ni ra te !
Nok ji ni gon en t'wa dok ten,
Ne Ron wa yen' en ha gwe ni ;

Ta gi tenr non wa sa thon dat,
I gen yah t'wa gya tah ni ron.
Ji tenr n'a gwe rya neh yo tenht,
Je nah gon rih wa ne gea ni;
Ka sa da tih ne gea nea ne?
Sah sea na A da de no ronh.

3 In vain thou strugglest to get free,

I never will unloose my hold;
Art thou the man that died for me?
The secret of thy love unfold :
Wrestling, I will not let thee go,
Till I thy name, thy nature know.

4 Wilt thou not yet to me reveal
Thy new, unutterable name?
Tell me, I still beseech thee, tell;
To know it now, resolved I am :
Wrestling, I will not let thee go,
Till I thy name, thy nature know.

5 What though my shrinking flesh complain, And murmur to contend so long;

I rise superior to my pain:

When I am weak, then I am strong! And when my all of strength shall fail, I shall with the God-man prevail.

6 Yield to me now, for I am weak, But confident in self-despair;

Speak to my heart, in blessings speak;

Be conquered by my instant prayer: Speak, or thou never hence shall move, And tell me if thy name be Love.
