1 ALL hail the power of Jesus' name, Let angels prostrate fall; Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown him Lord of all.
2 Ye chosen seed of Israel's race,
A remnant weak and small,
Hail him who saves you by his grace, And crown him Lord of all.
3 Let every kindred, every tribe On this terrestrial ball, To him all majesty_ascribe,
And crown him Lord of all.
4 Oh, that with yonder sacred throng We at his feet may fall!
We'll join the everlasting song, And crown him Lord of all.
14 Hear him, ye deaf: his praise, ye dumb, Your loosened tongues employ: Ye blind, behold your Saviour come, And leap, ye lame, for joy.
1 THE head that once was crowned with Is crowned with glory now; [thorns A royal diadem adorns
The mighty Victor's brow.
2 The highest place that heaven affords Is his by sovereign right;
The King of kings, and Lord of lords, He reigns in glory bright.
3 Jesus, the joy of all above!
The joy of all below,
To whom he manifests his love,
And grants his name to know.
4 To them the cross, with all its shame, With all its grace is given; Their name—an everlasting name, Their joy-the joy of heaven.
5 To them the cross is life and health, Though shame and death to him: His people's hope, his people's wealth, Their everlasting theme.
1 IN humble notes our faith adores The great, mysterious King; While angels strain their nobler powers, And sweep th' immortal string.
4 They love not, for they have not kissed 3 Apart from thee all gain is loss, The Saviour's outer hem;
And labor vainly done; The solemn shadow of thy cross
Is better than the sun.
4 Alone, O Love ineffable!
Thy saving name is given; To turn aside from thee is hell, To walk with thee is heaven.
MISSIONARY HYMN. 7s & 6s. Dr. L. MASON.
Blessings of Christ's Reign. 1 HAIL to the Lord's Anointed! Great David's greater Son; Hail, in the time appointed, His reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, To set the captive free! To take away transgression, And rule in equity.
2 He comes, with succor speedy, To those who suffer wrong; To help the poor and needy,
And bid the weak be strong; To give them songs for sighing, Their darkness turn to light, Whose souls, condemned and dying, Were precious in his sight. 3 O'er every foe victorious,
He on his throne shall rest, From age to age more glorious, All blessing, and all blest. The tide of time shall never
His covenant remove; His name shall stand forever,— That name to us is- Love.
Till every isle and nation, Till every tribe and tongue, Receive the great salvation,
And join the happy throng.
2 Yes,- thou shalt reign forever, O Jesus, King of kings! Thy light, thy love, thy favor, Each ransomed captive sings: The isles for thee are waiting,
The deserts learn thy praise, The hills and valleys greeting, The song responsive raise.
1 IN heavenly love abiding, No change my heart shall fear, And safe is such confiding, For nothing changes here: The storm may roar without me, My heart may low be laid, But God is round about me, And can I be dismayed?
2 Wherever he may guide me, No want shall turn me back; My Shepherd is beside me, And nothing can I lack: His wisdom ever waketh, His sight is never dim: He knows the way he taketh, And I will walk with him.
