2 Though voice nor sound inform the ear,

Well known the language of their song,
When, one by one, the stars appear,

Led by the silent moon along;
Till round the earth, from all the sky,

Thy beauty beams on every eye.
3 Waked from thy touch, the morning sun

Comes like a bridegroom from his bower, And, like a giant, glad to run

His bright career with speed and power ; Thy flaming messenger, to dart

Life through the depths of nature's heart. 4 While these transporting visions shine

Along the path of Providence, Glory eternal, joy divine,

Thy word reveals, transcending sense : My soul thy goodness longs to see, Thy love to man, thy love to me.

DOXOLOGIES.

HYMN 544. L. M. [ #] 1 PRAISE God, from whom all blessings flow;

Praise him, all creatures here below;
Praise him above, ye heavenly throng;
O praise Jehovah in your song.

HYMN 545. C. M. [#]
1 ALMIGHTY Father, gracious Power,

Thy grateful children own
Thy boundless love, and bow before

Thine everlasting throne.
2 Forever hallowed be thy name,

All holy, good, and wise;
And may thy perfect will be done

On earth as in the skies.

HYMN 546. S. M. [#]
1 To heaven's eternal King,

Who rules supreme alone,
Let all on earth their praises bring,

And worship round his throne.
2 His name, as sovereign Lord,

Shall sound through distant lands; Great is his grace, and sure his word;

His truth forever stands.

HYMN 547. 7s. M. [ #]
1 HOMAGE pay to God above,-

God, whose nature all is love;
In his praise your breath employ,--

Gracious Source of every joy!
2 All our hopes of life and heaven

Through thy grace alone are given ;
Bliss eternal, pure, divine,
Every gift, o God, is thine.

HYMN 548. H. M. [#]
GLORY to God on high ;

Forever bless his name;
Let earth, and seas and sky

His wondrous love proclaim.
To him be praise and glory given
By all on earth and all in heaven.

HYMN 549. 81. L. M. [#]
To thee, supreme, the ever-blest,
Be praise in thankful notes addressed;
Such as the stars of morning sung,
When earth was on its balance hung;
Such praise as from angelic choirs,
And saints, whom zeal like theirs inspires,
In heaven above, and earth below,
Still flows, and shall forever flow.

HYMN 550. 8 & 7s. M. [#] Gracious Source of every blessing,

Guard our breasts from anxious fears; Let us, each thy care possessing,

Peaceful reach the vale of years; All our hopes on thee reclining,

Peace companion of our way, May our sun, in smiles declining, Rise in everlasting day.
