PRAISE. II. 8. Allegro. BISHOP HOPKINS. ま 1. Sing to the Lord a new-made song; Let earth in one as sem-bled throng, Her Psalm 75. From the xcvi. Psalm of David. 2 He's great, and greatly to be praised; In majesty and glory raised Above all other deities; For pageantry and idols all Are they whom gods the heathen call; 3 Be glory then to him restored Before his throne your homage pay, : Which he, and he alone, can claim: :|| To worship at his sacred court, Let all the trembling world resort. Doxology. By all on earth and all in heaven, To God the Father, God the Son, Ere time had yet its course begun: : As was, and is, be highest praise, And still shall be through endless days. Hymn 201. Revelation vii: 9, &c. 2 These through fiery trials trod; 3 Hunger, thirst, disease unknown, God shall wipe away their tears. Hymn 224. 1 WHILE with ceaseless course the sun Hasted through the former year, Many souls their race have run, They have done with all below: We a little longer wait, But how little, none can know. 2 As the winged arrow flies Speedily the mark to find; As the lightning from the skies Darts, and leaves no trace behind, Swiftly thus our fleeting days Bear us down life's rapid stream; Upward, Lord, our spirits raise; All below is but a dream.

St. Luke xiii. 24–27. 1 SEEK, my soul, the narrow gate, When too late to offer prayer. 2 God from mercy's seat shall rise, 3 Mournfully will they exclaim: 4 Vain, alas, will be their plea, Sad their everlasting lot; Doxology.
