Behold, the morning sun.
Beyond the reign of sin and death
Blest is the tie that binds

Blest is the man whose tender care
Blest is the man whose tender heart
Brother, though from yonder sky
Christians! brethren! ere we part.
Come, weary souls, with sin distressed
Come in, thou blessed of the Lord.

Dismiss us with thy blessing, Lord
Drop the limpid waters now

Hail, love divine, joys ever new
Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Happy, beyond description, he
Help us, O Lord, thy yoke to wear
Herald of the Lord's salvation
Here in the broken bread.

How pleasing is the scene, how sweet
How blest the sacred tie that binds
How did my heart rejoice to hear
How blest amid all blessings
How beautiful the sight

If high or low our station be
I love thy church, O God

[ocr errors]

Jesus, I love thy charming name
Jesus, thou eternal Saviour

Jesus, the friend of man

Let plenteous grace descend on those
Let pure devotion rise

Lift aloud the voice of praise
Lo! what a glorious sight appears
Lord, now we part in thy blest name
Lord, dismiss us with thy blessing
Lord, we adore thy wondrous grace
Lord, on thy Zion's wall

Lord, lead the way the Saviour went
Love divine, all love excelling

Now may he who from the dead
Not with terror do we meet

O for a closer walk with God
O God, accept the sacred hour
O God of Zion, from thy throne
O happy day that fixed my choice
Our Heavenly Father calls
Our Heavenly Father, hear.
O here, if ever, God of love
O, sweet it is to know, to feel
O'the delights, the heavenly joys
On thy church, O Power Divine.
O Zion, tune thy voice

Pastor, thou art from us taken
Planted in Christ, the living vine
Prepare us, Lord, to view thy cross

Saviour, thy law we love.
Saviour, who thy flock art feeding
See Israel's gentle Shepherd stand
Sovereign of all the worlds on high
Sweet is the friendly voice

Sweet is the prayer whose holy stream

Thanks for mercies, Lord, receive
The Christian warrior, see him stand
The Saviour gently calls

There is a land mine eye hath seen
There is an hour of peaceful rest

We bid thee welcome, in the name
Were not the sinful Mary's tears
What shall we render, bounteous Lord
What glorious tidings do I hear
When before thy throne we kneel
When Jesus, our great Master, came
When I survey life's varied scene
While thee I seek, protecting Power.

While through this changing world we roam
Who is thy neighbor? he whom thou
With sacred joy we lift our eyes
