Praise to our Creator. Ps. 100. WATTS.

1 BEFORE Jehovah's awful throne,
Ye nations, bow with sacred joy;
Know that the Lord is God alone;
He can create, and he destroy.

2 His sovereign power, without our aid, Made us of clay, and formed us men; And when, like wandering sheep, we strayed,

He brought us to his fold again.

3 We are his people, we his care,
Our souls and all our mortal frame:
What lasting honors shall we rear,
Almighty Maker, to thy name!

4 We'll crowd thy gates with thankful songs;

High as the heavens our voices raise;
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
Shall fill thy courts with sounding praise.

Public Worship. TATE & BRADY. 3 With patience firm and purpose high

1 Он come! loud anthems let us sing,
Loud thanks to our Almighty King;
For we our voices high should raise,
When our salvation's Rock we praise.

2 Into his presence let us haste,

To thank him for his favors past;
To him address, in joyful songs,
The praise that to his name belongs.

3 Oh let us to his courts repair,
And bow with adoration there;
With joy and fear, devoutly all
Before the Lord, our Maker, fall!

The weakness of our flesh supply;
Kindle our senses from above,

And make our hearts o'erflow with love.

The Lord's Day.

NEWTON.

1 How welcome to the soul, when pressed
With six days' noise and care and toil,
Is the returning day of rest,
Which hides us from the world awhile!

2 How happy they whose lot is cast
Where Christ invites the weary yet!
They find their sorrows quickly past,
And all their burdens soon forget.

3 Though pinched with poverty at home,
With sharp afflictions daily fed,
It makes amends, if they can come
To God's own house for heavenly bread.

4 We thank thee for thy day, O Lord!
And here thy promised presence seek
Open thy hand with blessings stored,
And give us manna for the week.

LEIGHTON. S.M.

GREATOREX COLLECTION (by permission).

COME, sound his praise abroad, And hymns of glory sing; Jehovah is the sovereign God, The universal King.

2 He formed the deeps unknown; He gave the seas their bound; The watery worlds are all his own, And all the solid ground.

3 Come, worship at his throne,

Come, bow before the Lord:

We are his work, and not our own; He formed us by his word. 4 To-day attend his voice,

Nor dare provoke his rod; Come like the people of his choice, And own your gracious God.

Enjoyment in Worship. SPIRIT OF THE PSALMS.

1 SWEET is the task, O Lord!

Thy glorious acts to sing,

To praise thy name, and hear thy word, And grateful offerings bring.

2 Sweet, at the dawning hour,

Thy boundless love to tell; And, when the night-wind shuts the flower, Still on the theme to dwell.

3 Sweet, on this day of rest,

To join, in heart and voice,
With those who love and serve thee best,
And in thy name rejoice.

4 To songs of praise and joy
Be every sabbath given,
That such may be our blest employ
Eternally in heaven!

LISBON. S.M.

9:24 74
