O Lord, another day has flown.. O Lord, how many are my foes... O Lord, thy heavenly grace impart. O may I love at early day..
Once more, my soul, the rising day. Once more, the light of day I see...

One sweet flower has drooped and faded....... Waterston .385 On thee, each morning, O my God.. O render thanks to God above.......... O that the Lord would guide my ways.. O thou, from whom all goodness flows.. O thou that hearest prayer.
O thou that hear'st when sinners cry.. O thou, to whom in ancient time.. O thou, to whose all-searching sight. O thou whose tender mercy hears.. Our Father, God, once more we raise. Our Father, God, to thee alone.... Our Father sits on yonder throne.

See how the mounting sun. See the leaves around us falling. Shine, mighty God, on Zion shine... Shine on our souls, eternal God.... Since all the varying scenes of time- Sing to the Lord most high.... Sing to the Lord, who loud proclaims.. So let our lips and lives express· · Songs of praise the angels sang.
Source of being, Holy Father.... Sovereign Ruler of the skies... Sow in the morn thy seed....... Speak gently, it is better far.... Stand up, my soul, shake off thy fears. Stern winter throws his icy chain.. Sweet is the time of spring..
Sweet is the work, O Lord.

Sweet peace of conscience, heavenly guest. Take up thy cross, the Saviour said. The branch is stooping to thy hand.. The Christian warrior, see him stand.................. The dove let loose in eastern skies.. Thee will I love, O Lord, my strength.. The God of glory walks his round..
The God of Israel never sleeps..
The God of nature and of grace..

The leaves around me falling... The Lord my pasture shall prepare.. The Lord my shepherd is.... The morning light is breaking. There is a God, all nature speaks. There is a land of pure delight.. There is an hour of peaceful rest. There is a region, lovelier far.. The Saviour calls, let every ear........ The Saviour, oh what endless charms.. The Spirit in our hearts... Thou art, O God, the light and life.. Thou art the Way, to thee alone.. Thou lovely source of true delight.. Thou only Sovereign of my heart.. Thou that dost my life prolong
Thrice happy man, who fears the Lord

REFLECTIONS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR.
"We spend our years as a tale that is told."-Ps. xc. 9.
WHILE with ceaseless course the sun
Hasted through the former year,
Many souls their race have run,
Never more to meet us here.
Fixed in an eternal state,
They have done with all below; We a little longer wait;
But how little-none can know.
2 Spared to see another year,
Guard us all, O God, each day; Let thy blessing meet us here, Guide us all in Wisdom's way. Here may we each hour improve, Walk in duty's happy road, Toward each other cherish love, Daily live more near to God.
3 Thanks for mercies past receive, Pardon of our sins renew; Teach us, henceforth, how to live With eternity in view;
Bless thy word to us while young, Fill us with a Saviour's love; And when life's short race is run, May we dwell with thee above.
"Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee; verily every man at his best estate is altogether vanity."-Ps. xxxix. 5.
1 SEE, another year is gone!
Quickly have the seasons past;
That we enter now upon, Will to many prove the last. Mercy hitherto has spared;
But have mercies been improved? Let us ask,-Are we prepared,
Should we be this year removed?
2 Some, whom we no longer see,
Who their mortal race have run, Seemed as fair for life as we,
When the former year begun. While we now instruction hear, Help us, Lord, each one to think That eternity is near;
We are standing on the brink!
3 If from sin thou'st made us free, By thy pardoning love and grace; Welcome then the call will be
To depart and see thy face. To the good, while here below,
With new days, new mercies come,
But the happiest day they know,
Is their last, which leads them home.
"Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day."-Acts xxvi. 22.
GREAT God! we sing that mighty hand,
By which supported, still we stand;
The opening year thy mercy shows;- Let mercy crown it till its close.
