Praise God in His sanctuary; praise Him in the | firma-ment | of His | power. 2 Praise Him for His | mighty | acts; Praise Him according to His | excel-lent | greatness. 4 Praise Him with the | timbrel · and | dance : 5 Praise Him upon the | loud - | cymbals : Praise Him upon the | high--| sounding | cymbals. 6 Let every thing that hath breath | praise the | Lord: Praise ye the Lord. Glory be to the Father, and | to the | Son, And to the Holy | Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and | ever | shall be, COVENANT. 989 Before the Administration of the Sacrament. I AND they brought young children to Him, that | He should | touch them; And His disciples re- | bu-ked | those that | brought them. 2 But when Jesus saw it He was | much dis- | pleased; And said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto Me, and forbid them not, for of | such is the | kingdom of | God. 3 Verily, I say | un-to | you ; Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child he | shall not enter there- | in. 4 And He took them up | in His arms; Put His hands upon | them and | bles-sed | them.

I THEN Will I sprinkle clean | water up- | on you, 2 A new heart also | will I give you, And a new spirit | will I | put with- | in you: 3 And I will take away the stony heart | out of your | flesh, And ye shall keep my | judgments, and | do them. 5 I will pour my Spirit up- on thy | seed, And my blessing up- on thine | offspring: 6 And they shall spring up as a- | mong the | grass, As willows by the water- | courses. 7 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, And to all that are afar off, even as many as the | Lord our | God shall | call. Glory be to the Father, and to the | Son, And to the Holy | Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and | ever | shall be, World without | end. Amen. "ALL HAIL." 990 I ALL hail the power of Jesus' Name! Bring forth the royal diadem, Before His face, who tunes their choir, Extol the stem of Jesse's rod, And crown Him | Lord of | all! 3 Ye seed of Israel's chosen race, Hail Him who saves you by His grace, The crownéd | Lord of all! THE STAR OF BETHLEHEM. A men. 991 I WHEN marshalled on the nightly plain, 2 Once on the raging seas I rode, The storm was loud, the night was | dark, The ocean yawned, and rudely blowed The wind that | tossed my | foundering bark. Deep horror then my vitals froze ; | stem, When suddenly a star arose, It was the Star-the | Star of | Bethlehem. 3 It was my guide, my light, my all; It bade my dark fore- | bodings | cease; And through the storm, and danger's thrall, It led me to the | port of peace. The Star-the | Star of | Bethlehem ! THE CHARIOT. A men. 993 I THE chariot! the chariot! its wheels roll in | fire, And the heavens with the burden of | Godhead are | bowed. 2 The glory! the glory! by myriads are | poured The hosts of the angels that | wait on their | Lord; 3 The trumpet! the trumpet! the dead have all | heard; And the doom of eternity | hangs on His | word. 5 O mercy! O mercy! look down from a- | bove, Creator, on us Thy sad | children, with | love! When beneath to their darkness the wicked are | driven, 994 I THE Throne of His Glory! as snow it is | white, To the right and the left, on the | Throne's either | side. |
