HYMN 24. 7s. Redeeming Love. [*]
Christ's Resurrection and Ascension. Matt. xxviii, 2.
NGELS, roll the rock away!
Death, yield up the mighty prey!
s See, the Saviour quits the tomb-
Glowing with immortal bloom.
u 2 Shout, ye seraphs; Gabriel, raise
Thine eternal trump of praise;
Let the earth's remotest bound
Echo to the blissful sound.

o 3 Now, ye saints, lift up your eyes;
See the Conqueror mount the skies;
Troops of angels on the road,
Hail and sing th' incarnate God.
g 4 Heaven unfolds her portals wide-
Glorious Hero, through them ride;
King of glory, mount thy throne;
Boundless empire is thine own.
s 5 Praise him, ye celestial choirs,
Praise, and sweep your golden lyres;
Praise him in the noblest songs,
From ten thousand thousand tongues.
-6 Let Emmanuel be ador'd-

d Ransom, Mediator, Lord;

o To creation's utmost bound,
Let th' immortal praise resound.

Praise to the Redeemer.

M'May an infant lisp thy name?

IGHTY God, while angels bless thee,

-Lord of man, as well as angels,
Thou art every creature's theme.
Hallelujah,

Hallelujah, hallelujah. Amen. -2 Lord of every land and nation, Ancient of eternal days!

o Sounded through the wide creation, Be thy just, exalted praise.

g 3 For the grandeur of thy natureGrand beyond a seraph's thought—

For created works of power,

Hal.

Works with skill and kindness wrought. Hal.

4 For thy providence that governs, Through thine empire's wide domain;

e Wings an angel-guides a sparrow-
Blessed be thy gentle reign.

e 5 But thy rich, thy free redemption,
Dark through brightness all along!
e Thought is poor, and poor expression;
Who dare sing that awful song?

-6 Brightness of the Father's glory,
Shall thy praise unutter'd lie?
d Fly, my tongue, such guilty silence!
Sing the Lord, who came to die.
e 7 Did archangels sing thy coming?

S

Did the shepherds learn their lays?
-Shame would cover me, ungrateful,
Should my tongue refuse to praise.
8 From the highest throne in glory,
To the cross of deepest wo-
All to ransom guilty captives!

Flow, my praise, for ever flow, o 9 Go, return, immortal Saviour;

Leave thy footstool, take thy throne:
g Thence return, and reign for ever;
Be the kingdom all thine own.
Hallelujah, &c.

Extol the stem of Jesse's rod,

And crown him-Lord of all.

The God incarnate! Man Divine!
And crown him--Lord of all.

RE

The Kingdom of Christ. Phil. iv, 4.
EJOICE-the Lord is King!
Your God and King adore;
Mortals, give thanks and sing,
And triumph evermore :
Lift up the heart, lift up the voice,
Rejoice aloud, ye saints, rejoice.
2 Rejoice-the Saviour reigns!
The God of truth and love;
When he had purg'd our stains,
He took his seat above:

Lift up the heart, lift up the voice, Rejoice aloud, ye saints, rejoice. -3 His kingdom cannot fail;

He rules air, earth, and heaven:
The keys of death and hell
Are to our Jesus given:

o Lift up the heart, lift up the voice,
Rejoice aloud, ye saints, rejoice.
-5 He all his foes will quell,

Will all our sins destroy;

And every bosom swell,

With pure seraphic joy ; o Lift up the heart, lift up the voice, Rejoice aloud, ye saints, rejoice. o 6 Rejoice, in glorious hope;

Jesus the Judge will come

And take his servants up

To their eternal home:

g We soon shall hear th' archangel's voice: The trump of God shall sound-rejoice! Rippon.

Adorn the heavenly plains:

And try their choicest strains.

In that immortal song!

And love command my tongue. Watts's Lyr.
