Let one loud song of praise arise,
Let others boast how strong they be,
Let party names no more,
Let songs of endless praise,
Let us with a gladsome mind,
Let Zion's Watchmen all awake,.
Like shadows gliding o'er the plain,
Lo! God is here; let us adore,
Lo! my Shepherd's hand divine!
Lord, before thy presence come,
Lord, dismiss us with thy blessing,
Lord, every blessing is from thee,
Lord, I am thine, but thou wilt prove,
Lord, I believe a rest remains,

Lord, I have made thy word my choice,
Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear,
Lord, in the unbeginning years,
Lord, now we part in thy blest name,
Lord of my life, O may thy praise,
Lord of nature, Source of light,
Lord of the harvest, God of grace,

My Father, let me hear thy voice,
My Father, when around me spread,
My God, how endless is thy love,.
My God, in whom are all the springs,
My God, I thank thee; may no thought,
My God! my everlasting hope!

My God, my King, thy various praise,
My God, my strength, my hope,
My God, permit me not to be,
My God, permit my tongue,

My God, the steps of righteous men,
My God, the visits of thy face,
My God, thy boundless love I praise,
My God, what silken cords are thine,
My God, whose all-pervading eye,
My gracious God, I own thy right,
My helper God, I bless his name,.
My Maker, and my King,
My Shepherd is the living Lord,
My soul before thee prostrate lies,
My soul, how lovely is the place,
My soul, repeat his praise,

My soul shall praise thee, O my God,
My soul, the awful hour will come,
My spirit looks to God alone,
Mysterious are the ways of God, .
Naked as from the earth we came,
No change of times shall ever shock,
Nor eye hath seen, nor ear hath heard,
Not for the pious dead we weep,
Not to the terrors of the Lord,
No war nor battle's sound,

Now may he who from the dead,
Now to the Lord a noble song!

O for a heart to praise my God,
O God, by whom the seed is given,
O God, mine inmost soul convert,
O God of Abram, by whose hand,
O God, thou art my God alone,

O God, we praise thee, and confess, .
O God, whose dread and dazzling brow,
O God, whose presence glows in all,
O God, whose thunder shakes the sky,
O happy Christian, who can trust,
O happy is the man who hears,
O happy soul, that lives on high,
O happy they who know the Lord,
O help us Lord, each hour of need,
O how can they look up to heaven,
"O learn of me," the Saviour cried,
O let me, heavenly Lord, extend, .
O let my trembling soul be still,
O Lord, my best desire fulfil,
O Lord of life, and truth, and grace,
O Lord, our fathers oft have told,
O Lord, our heavenly King,
O Lord, the Saviour and defence,
O Lord, thy heavenly grace impart,
O Lord, thy mercy, my sure hope,
O Lord, where'er thy people meet,
O lovely voices of the sky, .
Once more, my soul, the chosen day,
One prayer I have, all prayers in one,
On the first Christian Sabbath eve,
On thy church, O Power Divine,
On us the Sun of Righteousness,.
O render thanks to God above,
O Source of uncreated light,
O Spirit of the living God,

O stay thy tears, for they are blest,
O sweet it is to know, to feel,

O that my heart was right with thee,
O that the Lord would guide my ways,
O Thou, by long experience tried,
O Thou, from whom all goodness flows,
O Thou, the wretched's sure retreat,.
O Thou, to whom in ancient time,
O Thou, to whose all-searching sight,

Prayer is the soul's sincere desire,

Our joy is a created good,

Pass a few swiftly-fleeting years,
Perpetual Source of light and grace,

Raise your triumphant songs,.
Rejoice, believer, in the Lord,.

Searcher of hearts! to thee are known,
See from on high, a light divine, .

"See how he loved!" exclaimed the Jews,
See Israel's gentle Shepherd stand,
See the leaves around us falling,.
Servant of God! well done,

Shine forth, Eternal Source of light,

[merged small][merged small][merged small][ocr errors][merged small][merged small][merged small][ocr errors][merged small]

Shine on our souls, Eternal God!
Sing to the Lord Jehovah's name,
Sing to the Lord who loud proclaims,
Sing we the song of those who stand,
Sing, ye redeemed of the Lord,
So let our lips and lives express,
Songs of immortal praise belong,
Songs of praise the angels sang,
Soon will our fleeting hours be past,
Sovereign Ruler of the skies,
Sow in the morn thy seed,
Spirit! leave thine house of clay,
Spirit of Truth, on this thy day,
"Stand still, refulgent orb of day!"
Stand up and bless the Lord,
Supreme and universal light!.
Sure to the mansions of the blest,
Sweet is the bliss of souls serene,
Sweet is the task, O Lord,

Sweet is the work, my God, my King,

Teach me, my God and King,
Teach me, O teach me, Lord, thy way,
Thanks for mercies past, receive,
The Christian warrior, see him stand,
The darkened sky, how thick it lowers,
The day approacheth, O my soul,
The dews and rain, in all their store,
The earth, and all the heavenly frame,
The earth is not our home,.
The evils that beset our path,
Thee we adore, Eternal Name,
The fountain, in its source,
The glorious universe around,
The God of glory walks his round,
The God who reigns alone,

The heavenly spheres, to thee, O God,
The heaven of heavens cannot contain,
The heavens declare thy glory, Lord,
The heavens, O Lord, thy rule obey,
The Law by Moses came,

The Lord descended from above,

The Lord is in his holy place, .
