2 Hail, IMMANUEL, Prince of Peace,
Hail, Thou Sun of Righteousness;
Deign upon our souls to shine,
Make and keep us ever Thine.

Piano.

3 HOLY SPIRIT, heav'nly Dove, Raise our hearts to joys above; Oh, may we in early days,

Grow in knowledge, chuse Thy ways.
4 Grant, if life be spar'd, that we,
While we live, may live to Thee;
When we die, be death our gain,
May we die with Christ to reign."

CHORUS, by the Congregation.
5 GOD of glory, truth, and grace,
Bless, oh, bless the rising race;
O'er their heads Thy banner spread,
In their hearts Thine influence shed.

6 Oh, that all assembled here,
In Thy presence may appear;
With this anthem fill the sky,
"GLORY BE TO GOD ON HIGH!"

SUMMARY OF FAITH AND DUTY.

1 PRAISE GOD, the bounteous Lord, Whose goodness was display'd,

When, by His mighty word,

He our first parents made,

Chorus. Holy and happy like their GOD,
He form'd their souls for His abode.

2 Alas, man went astray,
Forgetful of His word
We all forsook His way,

;

And disobey'd our LORD;

Chorus. Our fall, our sin, our guilt we own,
Prostrate condemn'd before His throne.
3 The Son of GOD came down,
His glory laid aside;

Left His immortal crown,

And wept, and bled, and died;

Chorus. Nor did abhor our flesh and blood,
He died to make our peace with God.
4 He rose to plead our cause,
At GoD's right hand above;
Though we transgress'd His Laws,
Unmindful of His love;

Chorus. Pardon and life through Him we gain,
And humbly hope with Him to reign.

5 The HOLY SPIRIT praise,
In tender mercy giv'n;
Who light and life conveys,

To make us meet for heav'n.

Chorus. Author of Life, Thy grace impart,
Reform our lives, renew our heart.

6 May we repent, believe;
Ŏ LORD, our sins forgive;
May we the truth receive,
And to Thy glory live,

Chorus. And do Thy will, and love Thy ways,
And serve Thee truly all our days.

7 GLORY TO GOD on high,

Salvation to the LAMB;

In life, and when we die,

May we such love proclaim.

Chorus. Glory and praise be ever giv'n,
By all in earth, and all in heav'n.

8+ Angelic hosts divine,

Around the throne above,
Ye perfect spirits join

Our harmony and love;

Chorus. Angels, archangels, swell the theme,
Resound the great JEHOVAH's name,

ON THE NATIVITY.

A Translation from the ADESTE FIDELes.

10, come all ye faithful, joyful triumph raising, Oh, come ye to Bethlehem, His praise re

cord

Behold the SON, the tim

angels, praise Him!

Oh, come, let us adore
let us adore Him; o, come, let us
adore Him,

Oh, come, let us adore Him; CHRIST Our LORD.

2 O Thop light, of light, of all, things the Creator; Hail, King of glory! hail, incarnate WORD! Glorious IMMANUEL, now in mortal nature ; Oh, come, let us adore Him; CHRIST our LORD.

3 Ch, come, all ye faithful, choirs of heav'n at

attending;

JESUS is born, by earth and heav'n ador'd: Glorious MESSIAH, mighty GOD, descending; Oh, come, let us adore Him, CHRIST our LORD. 4 Oh, shout HALLELUJAH, praise the LORD of heaven!

On earth be peace, good will to man record:
GLORY TO GOD be in the highest given;

Oh, come, let us adore Him, CHRIST our LORD.

PROSPECT OF Death.

(C. M.)

I WELCOME the sweet, the sacred hour, (Ye moments, swiftly roll)

23

When earth shall yield her boasted pow'r,
To chain my parting soul.

2 Welcome the pang that calls me home,
To realms of long-sought rest;

Welcome the voice that bids me come
TO JESU's pitying breast.

3 There grief her murmurs shall forego,
And sin its pow'rs resign;

Pure joy and love seraphic flow,

And God be ever mine.

4. Oh, could I now those joys foresee,
Which soon shall be my own,

When freed from guilt, from sorrow free,
I'm fill'd with GOD alone,-

5 Death's silent vale should echo wide,
With songs of sin forgiv'n;

Till wafted safe o'er Jordan's tide,
I join'd the notes of heav'n.

343. (8,7,8,7. St. Pauï's.}

JAY the grace of CHRIST, our SAVIOUR,

MAY

And the FATHER'S boundless love,

With the HOLY SPIRIT'S favour,

Rest upon us from above! Thus may we abide in union

With each other and the LORD; And possess, in sweet communion, Joys, which earth cannot afford,

B

344.

(8,8,7. St. Peter's.)

LESSED be the pow'r who gaye us,
Freely gave His SON to save us ;
Bless'd the SON, who freely came:
Honour, blessing, adoration,
Ever from the whole creation,
Be to GoD, and to the LAMB.

345.

(6,6,4. Trinity.)

To the great ONE in THREE
Eternal praises be,

Hence evermore:

His Triune Majesty

May we in glory see,

And to eternity

Love and adore!

346.

(Sanctus.)

HOLY, holy, holy LORD GOD of hosts:

Heav'n and earth are full of the majesty of

Thy glory!

HALLELUJAH! AMEN.

FINIS.
