Forth fom Thy wounded body rolls

Who in our hearts of sin and woe,
Makes living springs of grace arise,
And into boundless glory flow.

And God the SPIRIT we adore,
To whom be equal honors done,
By all the Church, for evermore.

LORY to GOD on high,
The GoD of love and pow'r
Who made both earth and sky,
Let all His works adore:

Praise to th' Eternal Gon be giv'n,
By all in earth, and all in heav'n.

Hail, all-sufficient LAMB,
GOD, bless'd for evermore!

Thy fulness, love, and pow'r

Worthy art Thou, who once was slain,
Thro' endless years to live and reign.

O HOLY GHOST, to Thee,

To Thee our hearts we raise !

Accept our humble lay,

And deign t' inspire our praise.

THEE TRIUNE GOD we trust to adore, When heav'n and earth are known no more.

[blocks in formation]

Exalt our God with one accord,

And in His name rejoice;

Ne'er cease to sing, thou ransom'd host,
Praise FATHER, SON and HOLY GHOST,
Until in realms of endless light
Your praises shall unite

2 May we to all eternity

There join the angelic lays;
And sing in perfect harmony,
To GOD our SAVIOUR's praise;
He hath redeem'd us by His blood,
Hath made us kings and priests to God,
FOR US, FOR US THE LAMB was slain,
PRAISE YE THE LORD. AMEN.

AIL holy, holy, holy LORD!
Thrice blessed TRINITY!

The GoD of truth and grace;

And triumph in Thy praise.

And both triumphantly conspire

And in Thy glorious praises spend

An everlasting day.

In Thee who live, and move and are,

ONE with the FATHER and the WORD,
The LORD of Life, the great I AM!
Co-equal, Co-eternal THREE,

THE SECOND SUNDAY AFTER TRINITY.

PSALM CXIX. 2nd. Metre LXIII.

234

Luke xiv. 16.

ARISE, my soul, with joy obey

The mandate of thy LORD;

"All things are ready, come away,"
Thus speaks the sacred word.

2 In CHRIST, the FATHER reconcil'd
Invites our souls to come:
The pénitent He calls His child,
And kindly welcomes home.

3 O then return unto the LORD,
The world and sin forsake;
See happiness in CHRIST restor'd,
And all His gifts partake.

4 O come, and with His children taste
The blessings of His love;

While hope attends the sweet repast
Of nobler joys above.

5 There, with united heart and voice,
Before th' eternal throne,

Ten thousand thousand souls rejoice
In extacies unknown.

C. M.

6 And yet ten thousand thousand more,
Are welcome still to come:
Arise, my soul, the grace adore:
Approach, "there yet is room."
Psalm 1xxxvi. cxxxv, cxlv.
