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. OH, come, all ye faithful, joyful triumph raising, Oh, come ye to Bethlehem, His praise record: Behold the SoN, the King of angels, praise Him! Oh, come, let us adore Him; oh, come, let us adore Him;

Oh, come, let us adore Him; CHRIST our LORD. 2 0 Thou 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 Oh, come, all ye faithful, choirs of heav'n attend

ing;

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.

1 WELCOME the sweet, the sacred hour,
Ye moments, swiftly roll)

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,
That 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.

(C.M.)

DOXOLOGIES.

MAY the grace of CHRIST, our SAVIour,

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.

344 (8,8,7. St. Peter's.)

BLESSED be the pow'r who gave 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

HOLY, holy, holy LORD GOD of hosts:

(Sanctus.)

Heav'n and earth are full of the majesty of Thy

glory!

HALLELUJAH! AMEN.
