4.

Nor shall fail from memory's treasure, Works by love and mercy wrought; Works of love surpassing measure, Works of mercy passing thought.

5.

Full of kindness and compassion,
Slow to anger, vast in love,
God is good to all creation;

All his works his goodness prove.

PART II.

All thy works, O Lord, shall bless thee,
Thee shall all thy saints adore;
King supreme shall they confess thee,
And proclaim thy sovereign power.

2.

They thy might, all might excelling, Shall to all mankind make known; And the brightness of thy dwelling, And the glories of thy throne.

3.

Ever, God of endless praises,
Shall thy royal might remain;
Evermore thy brightness blazes,
Ever lasts thy righteous reign.

4.

Them that fall the Lord protecteth,

He sustains the bow'd and bent:

Every eye from thee expecteth,
Fix'd on thee, its nourishment.

PART III.

God is just in all he doeth,
Kind is he in all his ways;
He his ready presence showeth,
When a faithful servant prays.

Who sincerely seek and fear him,
He to them their wish shall give;
When they call, the Lord will hear them,
He will hear them and relieve.

3.

From Jehovah, all who prize him,
Shall his saving health enjoy:
All the wicked who despise him,
He will in their sin destroy.

Still, Jehovah, thee confessing,

Shall my tongue thy praise proclaim; And may all mankind with blessing

Ever hail thy holy Name.

HYMN 72. L. M.

AWAKE, my soul, to joyful lays,

And sing thy great Redeemer's praise; He justly claims a song from thee; His loving kindness, O how free!

2.

He saw me ruined in the fall,
Yet loved me, notwithstanding all;

He saved me from my lost estate;
His loving kindness, O how great!

Though numerous hosts of mighty foes,
Though earth and hell my way oppose,
He safely leads my soul along;
His loving kindness, O how strong!

Often I feel my sinful heart
Prone from my Saviour to depart,
But though I oft have him forgot,
His loving kindness changes not.

Soon shall I pass the gloomy vale,
Soon all my mortal powers must fail;
O may my last expiring breath
His loving kindness sing in death.

HYMN 73. L. M.

REAT God, to thee my evening song
With humble gratitude I raise:

O let thy mercy tune my tongue,
And fill my heart with lively praise.

2.

My days unclouded as they pass,
And every gently rolling hour,
Are monuments of wondrous grace,
And witness to thy love and power.

3.

And yet this thoughtless, wretched heart,
Too oft regardless of thy love,
Ungrateful, can from thee depart,
And from the path of duty rove.

Seal my forgiveness in the blood
Of Jesus; his dear name alone
I plead for pardon, gracious God,
And kind acceptance at thy throne.

5.

Let this blest hope my eyelids close;
With sleep refresh my feeble frame;
Safe in thy care may I repose,

And wake with praises to thy name.

HYMN 74. 8s, 7s.

LORD, with glowing heart I'd praise

thee,

For the bliss thy love bestows; For the pardoning grace that saves me, And the peace that from it flows: Help, O God, my weak endeavor; This dull soul to rapture raise: Thou must light the flame, or never Can my love be warmed to praise.

Praise, my soul, the God that sought thee, Wretched wanderer, far astray;

Found thee lost, and kindly brought thee
From the paths of death away;
Praise, with love's devoutest feeling,
Him who saw thy guilt-born fear,
And, the light of hope revealing,
Bade the blood-stain'd cross appear.

3.

Lord, this bosom's ardent feeling
Vainly would my lips express:
Low before thy footstool kneeling,

Deign thy suppliant's prayer to bless: Let thy grace, my soul's chief treasure, Love's pure flame within me raise; And, since words can never measure, Let my life show forth thy praise.

G

HYMN 75. L. M.

YLORY to thee, my God, this night, For all the blessings of the light; Keep me, O keep me, King of kings, Beneath thy own Almighty wings.

2.

Forgive me, Lord, for thy dear Son,
The ills that I this day have done;
That with the world, myself, and thee,
I, ere I sleep, at peace may be.

3.

Teach me to live, that I may dread
The grave as little as my bed;
