INDEX OF FIRST LINES.

Above, below, where'er I gaze
According to thy gracious word

........

Affliction is a stormy deep

A gain our ears have heard the voice................................................
Again our earthly cares we leave

Again the Lord of life and light.

A glance from heaven with sweet effect
A glory gilds the sacred page..

A holy air is breathing round..

Ah! wretched souls, who strive in vain..
A King shall reign in righteousness
All from the sun's uprise

............................

All hail the power of Jesus' name..................
All hail ye servants of the Lord ...................................
All nature dies and lives again
All nature feels attractive power
All nature's works his praise declare
All men are equal in their birth
All powerful, self-existent God
All ye nations, praise the Lord
Almighty former of creation's plan....
Almighty God, in humble prayer
Almighty God, thy wondrous works..
Almighty King, whose wondrous hand.
Almighty Maker, Lord of all

Almighty Lord, before thy throne

Along my earthly way..

Amazing, beauteous change...

Am I an Israelite indeed..

Am I a soldier of the cross

Amid surrounding gloom and waste..
Amidst a world of hopes and fears.....
And art thou with us, gracious Lord
And can my heart aspire so high
And is the gospel peace and love
And is there, Lord, a rest

Approach not the altar with gloom in thy soul

Approach, thou blesséd of the Lord

Around Bethesda's healing wave...

Arrayed in clouds of golden light.
As body when the soul has fled...

As bowed by sudden storms, the rose...
As earth's pageant passes by
Asleep in Jesus, blesséd sleep

As in solemn congregation.

.........

As o'er the past my memory strays..

A soldier's course, from battles won........
As showers on meadows newly mown.......

As the evening shadows gather

A voice from the desert comes awful and shrill.
Awake, my soul, and with the sun..
Awake, my soul, lift up thine eyes..
Awake, my soul, stretch every nerve
Awake our souls, away our fears
Baptized into our Saviour's death
Before Jehovah's awful throne
Begin, my soul, the exalted lay.
Begin the high celestial strain.
Behold, amid his little flock

Behold my servant, see him rise..
Behold, on Zion's heavenly shore
Behold the amazing sight

Behold the grace appears.

Behold the lofty sky...

Behold the morning sun...

Behold the path which mortals tread
Behold the Prince of Peace..
Behold the Saviour on the cross...
Behold the western evening light...
Behold, what wondrous grace
Behold where breathing love divine
Behold where in a mortal form....
Be it my only wisdom here

Beneath our feet and o'er our head
Bereft of all, when hopeless care
Beset with snares on every hand
Be thou, O God, exalted high....
Be with me, Lord, where'er I go
Beyond, beyond that boundless sea..
Blessed be thy name forever...
Blesséd state and happy he.........
Bless, O, bless, Almighty Father...
Bless, O Lord, each opening year

Blest are the humble souls that see..

Bread of heaven, on thee we feed..

Breathe thoughts of pity o'er a brother's fall
Brethren beloved for Jesus' sake..
