---2 [The manna came from lower skies, But Jesus from above; And rivers flow with love... Who ate the heavenly bread; Can raise us from the dead.] To nourish dying men; Lest we should faint again. -5 Our souls shall draw their heavenly breath, While Jesus finds supplies; Nor shall our graces sink to death, O For Jesus never dies. e 6 Daily our mortal flesh decays, 0 But Christ our life shall come; o His unresisted power shall raise Our bodies from the tomb.

John siv, 3. 1 TESUS is gone above the skies, J Where our weak senses reach him not; e And carnal objects court our eyes, To thrust our Saviour from our thought. 2 He knows what wand'ring hearts we have, Apt to forget his lovely face ; -And, to refresh our minds, he gave These kind memorials of his grace. With his own flesh and dying blood; And taste the wine, and bless our God. -4 Let sinful sweets be all forgot, And earth grow less in our esteem; o Christ and his love fill ev'ry thought, And faith and hope be fix'd on him. -5 Whilst he is absent from our sight, o 'Tis to prepare our souls a place, That we may dwell in heavenly light, g And live for ever near his face. --6' (Our eyes look upwards to the hills, Whence our returning Lord shall come : And tasteful sweless in ev'ry thohim. Love file fixed our sight We wait thy chariot's awful wheels, Crucifixion to the World by the Cross of Christ. Gal. vi, 14. 1[W HEN I survey the wondrous cross, W On which the Prince of glory dy'd, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. e 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ, my God: -All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to thy blood. Sorrow and love flow mingled down!. Or thorns compose so rich a crown? e 4 (His dying crimson, like a robe, Spreads o'er his body on the tree; -Then am I dead to all the globe, And all the globe is dead to me.) That were a present far too small; The Tree of Life. U To our exalted Lord, And we around his board. Weary and faint ye stood, -What dear refreshment here ye found, From this immortal food. o 3 The tree of life, that, near the throne, In heaven's high garden grows, Laden with grace, bends gently down Its ever-smiling boughs. -4 (Hov’ring among the leaves, there stands The sweet celestial Dove; The banner of his love.) 5 ('Tis a young heaven of strange delight: While in his shade we sit; Thiso raise at MIN 'water, angues be high, His fruit is pleasing to the sight, And to the taste as sweet. 0 6 New life it spreads through dying hearts, And cheers the drooping mind; Without a sting behind.) And guard all Eden's trees: That bears such fruits as these. 8 Infinite grace our souls adore, Whose wondrous hand has made This living branch of sovereign power - To raise and heal the dead.] HYMN 9. S. M. Watchman. [*] The Spirit, the Water, and the Blood. 1 John v, 6. I To praise our God on high, To fetch us strangers nigh. To sing the Saviour's name; How cheerfully he came! To bring us near to God; -Great was our debt, and he appears, To make the payment good. e 4 (My Saviour's pierced side, Pour Pour'd out a double flood; -By water we are purify'd, And pardon'd by the blood. 5 Infinite was our guilt, . But he our Priest atones; g On the cold ground his life was spilt, And offer'd up with groans.) e 6 Look up, my soul, to him Whose death was thy desert; And humbly view the living stream Flow from his breaking heart. 7 There, on the cursed tree, In dying pangs he lies !Fulfils his Father's great decree, And all our wants supplies. --8 Thus the Redeemer came, By water and by blood And Whose, my with he was And when the Spirit speaks the same, We feel his witness good. 9 While the eternal Three Bear their record above; And seal'd my Saviour's love. Nor let thy grace depart; And witness to my heart.)] HYMN 10. L. M. Geeen's. (*). Christ Crucified, the Wisdom and Power of God. STATURE with open volume stands, I To spread her Maker's praise abroad; And ev'ry labour of his hands d Shews something worthy of a God :o 2 But in the grace that rescu'd man, His brightest form of glory shines ; p Here on the cross, 'tis fairest drawn, In precious blood, and crimson lines. 03 (Here his whole Name appears complete; Nor wit can guess, nor reason prove, Which of the letters best is writ, o The power, the wisdom, or the love.) e 4 Here I behold his inmost heart, Where grace and vengeance strangely join, Piercing his Son with sharpest smart, To make the purchas'd pleasures mine. o 5 Oh! the sweet wonders of that cross, Where God, the Saviour, lov'd and dy'd! From his dear wounds and bleeding side. 0 6 I would for ever speak his name, In sounds to mortal ears unknown; With angels join to praise the Lamb, g And worship at his Father's throne. HYMN 11. C. M. St. Ann?s. [*] Pardon brought to our Senses. I How heavenly is the place, Of his redeeming grace! And sweetest glories shine ; There Jesus says that I am his, And my Beloved's mine. And shews his wounded side,) That open'd when I dy'd! 4 He smiles, and cheers my mournful heart, And tells of all his pain : And then he smiles again. For grace so vast as this! And seals it with a kiss. Be sounded all abroad; And worthy of a God. Be everlasting praise, The Gospel Feast. Luke xiv, 16, &c. 1[TTOW rich are thy provisions, Lord! 11 Thy table, furnish'd from above! The fruits of life oʻerspread the board, The cup o'erflows with heavenly love. 2 Thine ancient family, the Jews, Were first invited to the feast : We humbly take what they refuse, And Gentiles thy salvation tasté. 3 We are the poor, the blind, the lame; And help was far, and death was nigh! But at the gospel call, we came, And ev'ry want receiv'd supply: 4 From the high way that leads to hell, From paths of darkness and despair, Lord, we are come with thee to dwell, Glad to enjoy thy presence here.] 5 What shall we pay th' eternal Son, Who left the heaven of his abode |
