I've seen the beauteous flowers of spring
It is good when we lay on the pillow
In Israel's temple once by night

King of the forest which through years gone by

Kind stranger, dost thou ask me why

Kind maidens, if the sweetness of your strain

Knell of departed years

Know'st thou the value of a soul immortal?

Lord as the rain comes down to earth from heaven

My son, the wanderings of thy way

My grovelling spirit, Lord, in mercy raise
Mary! it is a lovely name

Mysterious are His ways

Mark the golden grains that pass

My God! my Father! blissful name

May she for whom these lines are penned

140

May you always, my brother, enjoy

179

My God! is any hour so sweet

196

My weary soul with patience waits
May heavenly guides attend thee
Mark the rude stone

My years roll on, the tide of time
Man, like a flower, at morn appears

Now one day's journey less divides
of friendship or of love

No grief is there, no tears of sorrow flow

Not to a few and favoured nooks
Not for the summer hour alone

No graven image would he blindly use

O child of sorrow be it thine to know
O for a faith as firm, unmoved

Oh! tell me not of earthly joys

O words of wonder! Saviour can it be ?

O God! thy name they well may praise
O never on this holy book

Oh! how unlike the complex works of man`
O Christ, our hope, our heart's desire

O Salem who in proud disdain

O help me, Lord, to cast my care
Observe the rising lily's snowy grace
Opening the map of God's extensive plan
Oh! sweet as vernal dews that fill

Oh what a night was that which wrapped
Onward through a peaceful valley

O God, that madest earth and sky

O could I write that I myself could save

Oh for a faith that will not shrink
O Jesus! teach me, like thyself, to fly
O help us, Lord, each hour of need
Onward, onward, men of heaven
Oft in the desert's dreary waste
O Lord of mercy and of might
O look up to the soft blue sky

Oh! come with thy olive branch, Spirit of love

[blocks in formation]

See the fair and fragrant flowers

Reflected on the lake I love

Spirit of God! descend upon my heart
See with awe the mighty ocean
Soft slumbers now my eyes forsake

[blocks in formation]

See how beneath the moonbeam's smile

60

Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day
Surely it is a murmuring tone

See with a smile of gladness, meek

Sickness and pain, and sin and death, no more
Sad but instructive emblem of decay
Say, shall the little ant with care and pain
Soon to the dust we speed

Soldier, go, but not to claim

Sweet bird who taught thee thus to raise
Strike the sweet chord

Stranger, if e'er by chance or feeling led
Strangers! pilgrims! is it so

Sweet book, by God our Maker given

The works of man inherit as is just
'Tis sweet to muse upon the skill displayed
There are deep voices all around
The stars, the stars, go forth by night

The path of sorrow, and that path alone
There's nothing bright above, below
The question is, not if our earthly race
The fly around the candle wheels

The holy Book of God unfolds to view
The bird that soars on highest wing
Time on swift wing pursues his rapid course
Thou art the way, and he who sighs

The hour of my departure's come

The night is dark, the sea runs high
Thee to deplore were grief misspent indeed
Tell me not in mournful numbers
They grew in beauty side by side

The lapse of time and rivers is the same
The sea, the sea, the glorious sea
The God of nature and of grace

They dread no more the storm that lowers
There is one only path to mortals given
'Tis greatly wise to talk with our past hours
Thrice happy man, whose soul is staid
The moon is up, how calm and slow
The darkest clouds give lightnings birth

Though the fig tree should not blossom
Tell me, thou dust beneath my feet
The branch is stooping to thy hand
