For ev-er be Thy Name a-dored For these celestial lines. A-men.

Here may the blind and hungry come,

And light and food receive;

Here shall the lowliest guest have room,
And taste and see and live.

3

Here springs of consolation rise
To cheer the fainting mind,
And thirsting souls receive supplies,
And sweet refreshment find.

4

Here the Redeemer's welcome voice
Spreads heavenly peace around,
And life and everlasting joys
Attend the blissful sound.

O may these heavenly pages be

My ever dear delight,

And still new beauties may I see,
And still increasing light.

Divine Instructor, gracious Lord,
Be Thou for ever near;

Teach me to love Thy sacred Word,
And view my Saviour here. Amen.

A-men.

The Church from her dear Master Received the gift Divine,

And still that light she lifteth

O'er all the earth to shine.

It is the golden casket,

Where gems of truth are stored; It is the heaven-drawn picture Of Christ, the Living Word.

Before God's Host unfurled; It shineth like a beacon

Above the darkling world.

It is the chart and compass,
That o'er life's surging sea,
'Mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
Still guides, O Christ, to Thee.

O make Thy Church, dear Saviour,
A lamp of burnished gold,
To bear before the nations
Thy true light, as of old.
O teach Thy wandering pilgrims
By this their path to trace

Till, clouds and darkness ended,
They see Thee face to face. Amen.
