Odraw me, Saviour, after Thee,
O'er the realms of Pagan darkness,
O Father, glorify thy name,
O for a closer walk with God,
O for a glance of heavenly day,
O for a heart to praise my God,
O for a thousand tongues to sing,
O for that tenderness of heart,
O from the world's vile slavery,,
Oft as I look upon the road,

Oft hast Thou, Lord, in tender love,
O God of Bethel, by whose hand,
O God, our help in ages past,
O happy day, that fix'd my choice,
O Israel, to thy tents repair,
O let me, heavenly Lord, extend,
O Lord, on whom I do depend,
O Lord our God, thy light and truth,
O Lord, turn not thy face away,
O may the power which melts the rock,
On all the earth thy spirit shower,
On the first Christian Sabbath eve,
On the mountain's top appearing,
One human pair, and only one,,
One prayer I have, all prayers in one,
O Saviour, is thy promise fled,
O Spirit of the living God,

[ocr errors]

O that I knew where I might find,
O that my heart was right with Thee,
O that the Lord would guide my ways,
O that Thou wouldst the heavens rend,
O the hour when this material,
O Thou, by long experience tried,
O Thou faithful God of Love, .
O Thou from whom all goodness flows,
O Thou, my light, my life, my joy,,
O Thou, to whose all-searching sight,
O Thou, who camest from above,
O Thou, who hast at thy command,
O Thou, whose mercy guides my way,
O Thou, whose wise paternal love,
O throw away thy rod,

Our Captain leads us on,

Our hearts are fasten'd to the world,
Our heavenly Father, hear,
Our heavenly Father's piercing eye,
Our joy is a created good,
Our Master, Jesus, reign'd above,
Our soul shall magnify the Lord,
O when wilt Thou my Saviour be,
O where shall rest be found,
O where is now that glowing love,
O wonder far exceeding,

Safely through another week,

Salvation, O the joyful sound,
Satan, the world, and sin,

Saviour, when night involves the skies,
Saviour, who ready art to hear,
Say what is this I feel,

Say, who shall God's elect condemn,
See how great a flame aspires,
See the leaves around us falling,
See the vineyard lately planted,
See, world, upon the shameful tree,
Servant of God, well done,

[ocr errors]

Shall foolish, weak, short-sighted man,
Shall I, for fear of feeble man,
She saw, she took, she ate,

Show pity, Lord, O Lord, forgive,
Sin has a thousand treacherous arts,
Sing hallelujah, praise the Lord,
Sing to the Lord, ye heavenly hosts,
Sing we the song of those who stand,
Sing, ye redeemed of the Lord,
Sinners of Adam's fallen race,
Sinners, turn, why will ye die,
Soldiers of Christ, arise,

[ocr errors]

Songs of praise the angels sang,

Soon shall this earthly frame, dissolved,
Sovereign of life, before thine eye,
Sovereign Ruler of the skies,

Spirit of power and might, behold,
Spirit of truth, come down,
Stand the omnipotent decree,
Stand up and bless the Lord,
Stay, Thou insulted Spirit, stay,
Stay, thou too happy sinner, stay,
Still for thy loving-kindness, Lord,
Summon'd my labour to renew,
Sweet Jesu, when I think on Thee,
Sweet is the task, my God and King,
Sweet the moments, rich in blessing,
Sweet was the journey to the sky,
Swift as the arrow cuts its way,

Moravian, 33

This world is all enchanted ground,
Thou art gone to the grave,

Thou dear Redeemer, dying Lamb,
Thou, God, art a consuming fire,
Thou God of glorious majesty,
Thou hidden love of God, whose height,
Thou, Lord, hast bless'd my going out,
Thou, whe didst for Peter's faith,
Thou wretched man of sorrow,
Though I have grieved thy Spirit, Lord,
Thousands of thousands stand around,
Through sorrow's night and danger's path,
Thus far on life's perplexing path,
Thus, Lord, throughout my life would I,
Thus saith the Lord, "My Church, to Thee,"
Thy ceaseless, unexhausted love,
Thy humblest works, with full accord,
Thy mansion is the Christian's heart,
Thy throne, O God, in righteousness,
Thy ways, O Lord, with wise design,
Thy word, Almighty Lord,
Time by moments steals away,
Times without number I have pray'd,
'Tis a point I long to know,
'Tis enough, the hour is come,

'Tis God the Spirit leads,

To Adam thus Jehovah spake,
To God, must awful and most high,
To God the only wise,

To-morrow,

Lord, is thine,

To Thee, O God, my prayers ascends,
To thy temple I repair,

To us the voice of wisdom cries,
Tremble, ye faniilies profane,
Trembling with tenderest alarms,

U

Unveil thy bosom, faithful tomb,

W

Watch'd by the world's malignant eye,
Weep, weep not o'er thy children's tomb,
We bid Thee welcome in the name,
We covenant with hand and heart,
Welcome, sweet day of rest,
We seek a rest beyond the skies,
What are these in bright array, .
What a rapturous song,

What is the chaff? the word of man,
What is the thing of greatest price,
What is the world? a wildering maze,
What joy or honour could we have,
What must it be to dwell above,
What secret hand, at morning light,
What shall I render to my God,
What shall we ask of God in prayer,
What various lovely characters,

When Adam sinn'd, through all his race,

When all thy mercies, O my God,.
When any turn from Zion's way,

When earthly comforts die,

When floods of grief assault the mind,
When gathering clouds around I view,
When groves by moonlight silence keep,
When heaves with sighs my anxious breast,
When I can read my title clear,
When in the hours of lonely wo,
When Israel press'd by Pharaoh stood,
When Jesus left his Father's throne,
When languor and disease invade,
When like a stranger on our sphere,
When marshall'd on the nightly plain,
When musing sorrow weeps the
When, O dear Jesus, when shall
When on Sinai's top I see,

past

When on the margin of the grave,

When poison spreading through their veins,
When quiet in my house I sit,

When restless on my bed I lie,
When the vale of death appears,

When those who fear'd the Lord of old,
When through the torn sail,
When war on earth suspended,

Where are the dead? In heaven or hell,
Where high the heavenly temple stands,
While Egypt lies enwrapt in night,
While saints and angels, glorious King,

[ocr errors]

While through this changing world we roam,
Who can describe the joys that rise,
Who is as the Christian great,
Who is the weak believer, who,
Why do we mourn departing friends,
Why is my heart so far from Thee,
Why should I fear the darkest hour,
Why will ye lavish out your years,
Why should the children of a King,
With wandering Jacob let us say,
With Thee, I lay me down to sleep,
Within these walls be peace,
Witness, ye men and angels now,
Words of eternal life to me,
Worthy, O Lord, art Thou,

Ye hearts with youthful vigour warm,
Ye trembling souls, dismiss your fears,
Ye virgin souls, arise,
