1. GREAT Maker of unnumbered worlds,

And whom unnumbered worlds adore,Whose goodness all thy creatures share, While nature trembles at thy power,2. Thine is the hand that moves the spheres, That wakes the wind, and lifts the sea; And man, who moves the lord of earth, Acts but the part assigned by thee.

3. While suppliant crowds implore thine aid,
To thee we raise the humble cry;
Thine altar is the contrite heart,
Thine incense the repentant sigh.
4. O, may our land, in this her hour,
Confess thy hand, and bless the rod,
By penitence make thee her Friend,
And find in thee a guardian God.

1. THE Saviour lives, no more to die;
He lives, the Lord enthroned on high;
He lives, triumphant o'er the grave;
He lives, eternally to save.

2. He lives, to still his servants' fears;
He lives, to wipe away their tears;
He lives, their mansions to prepare;
He lives, to bring them safely there.
3. Ye mourning souls, dry up your tears;
Dismiss your gloomy doubts and fears;
With cheerful hope your hearts revive,
For Christ, the Lord, is yet alive.

489.

1. RETURN, my wandering soul, return,
And seek an injured Father's face;
Those warm desires that in thee burn
Were kindled by redeeming grace.
2. Return, my wandering soul, return,

And seek a Father's melting heart;
His pitying eyes thy grief discern,
His heavenly balm shall heal thy smart.

3. Return, my wandering soul, return; Thy dying Saviour bids thee live; Go, view his bleeding side, and learn How freely Jesus can forgive.

4. Return, my wandering soul, return, And wipe away the falling tear; "Tis God who says, "No longer mourn," 'Tis mercy's voice invites thee near.

1. HE reigns! the Lord the Saviour reigns!
Sing to his name in lofty strains;
Let all the earth in songs rejoice,
And in his praise exalt their voice.

2. Deep are his counsels, and unknown;
But grace and truth support his throne:
Though gloomy clouds his way surround,
Justice is their eternal ground.

3. In robes of judgment, lo! he comes, Shakes the wide earth, and cleaves the tombs ;

Before him burns devouring fire;
The mountains melt, the seas retire.
4. His enemies, with sore dismay,
Fly from the sight, and shun the day:
Then lift your heads, ye saints, on high,
And sing, for your redemption's nigh.

1. JESUS, where'er thy people meet, There they behold thy mercy-seat; Where'er they seek thee, thou art found, And every place is hallowed ground.

2. For thou, within no walls confined,

Dost dwell within the humble mind; Such ever bring thee where they come, And, going, take thee to their home. 3. Great Shepherd of thy chosen few, Thy former mercies here renew; Here, to our waiting hearts, proclaim The sweetness of thy saving name.

1. AWAKE, my soul! awake, my tongue! My God demands the grateful song; Let all my inmost powers record The wondrous mercy of the Lord.

2. Divinely free his mercy flows,

Forgives my sins, allays my woes,
And bids approaching death remove,
And crowns me with indulgent love.
3. His mercy, with unchanging rays,
Forever shines, while time decays;
And children's children shall record
The truth and goodness of the Lord.

4. While all his works his praise proclaim,
And men and angels bless his name,
O, let my heart, my life, my tongue,
Attend, and join the blissful song.

1. STAND up, my soul, shake off thy fears, And gird the gospel armor on; March to the gates of endless joy,

Where Jesus, thy great Captain, 's gone.

2. Hell and thy sins resist thy course:

But hell and sin are vanquished foes; Thy Saviour nailed them to the cross, And sung the triumph when he rose. 3. Then let my soul march boldly on,— Press forward to the heavenly gate; There peace and joy eternal reign, And glittering robes for conquerors wait. 4. There shall I wear a starry crown, And triumph in almighty grace, While all the armies of the skies Join in my glorious Leader's praise.

1. FROM every stormy wind that blows, From every swelling tide of woes, There is a calm, a sure retreat; "Tis found before the mercy-seat.

2. There is a place where Jesus sheds
The oil of gladness on our heads-
A place of all on earth most sweet:
It is the blood-bought mercy-seat.
3. There is a scene where spirits blend,
Where friend holds fellowship with friend;
Though sundered far, by faith they meet
Around one common mercy-seat.

4. There, there, on eagle wings we soar,
And sin and sense molest no more;
And heaven comes down our souls to greet,
And glory crowns the mercy-seat.

1. AS showers on meadows newly mown,
Our God shall send his Spirit down:
Eternal Source of grace divine,
What soul-refreshing drops are thine!
2. That heavenly influence let us find
In holy silence of the mind,

While every grace maintains its bloom,
Diffusing wide its rich perfume.

3. Nor let these blessings be confined
To us, but poured on all mankind,
Till earth's rude wastes in verdure rise,
And Eden's beauty greet our eyes.

684.

1. O, WHERE is now that glowing love That marked our union with the Lord? Our hearts were fixed on things above, Nor could the world a joy afford. 2. Where is the zeal that led us then

To make our Saviour's glory known?
That freed us from the fear of men,
And kept our eye on him alone?
3. Where are the happy seasons spent
In fellowship with him we loved?
The sacred joy, the sweet content,
The blessedness that then we proved?
4. Behold, again we turn to thee;

O, cast us not away, though vile:
No peace we have, no joy we see,
O Lord our God, but in thy smile.
