My God, in whom are all the springs
My God, my everlasting hope
My God, the steps of pious men
My God, the visits of thy face
My heart and flesh cry out for thee
My Saviour, my Almighty Friend
My soul lies cleaving to the dust
My soul repeat his praise
My soul, review the time
My soul, the awful hour will come
My spirit looks to God alone
My trust is in my heavenly Friend
NO change of times shall ever shock
Not to ourselves, who are but dust
Now be my heart inspir'd to sing
Now in the hour of deep distress
Now let our mournful songs record
Now may the God of power and grace
Now shall my solemn vows be paid
Now to the Lord of heaven and earth
O BLESSED souls are they
O come, loud anthems let us sing
O Lord, my rock, to thee I cry
O Lord, our fathers oft have told
O Lord, to our request give ear,
On God my steadfast hopes rely
O praise ye the Lord
O render thanks to God above
O that the Lord would guide my ways
O that thy statutes every hour
O thou to whom all creatures bow
O thou who hear'st when sinners cry
O thou whose grace and justice reign
O were I like a feather'd dove
PARENT of nature, God supreme
Parent of universal good
Praise ye the Lord, immortal choir
Praise ye the Lord, let praise employ
Praise ye the Lord, O blissful theme
Praise ye the Lord, to speak his praise
Preserve me, Lord, in time of need
REJOICE, ye righteous, in the Lord
SALVATION is for ever nigh
Shall tyrants rule by impious laws
Shew pity, Lord, O Lord, forgive
Shout to the Lord, ye surging seas
Sing to the Lord aloud
Sing to the Lord Jehovah's name
Sing to the Lord, let praise inspire
Sing to the Lord, who loud proclaims
Sovereign of life, I own thy hand
TEACH me the measure of my days
Th' Almighty reigns exalted high
That man is blest who stands in awe
Thee will I bless, my God and King
The God Jehovah reigns
The heavens declare thy glory, Lord
The King of Saints, how fair his face
The Lord himself, the mighty Lord
The Lord in Zion plac'd his name
The Lord Jehovah reigns
The Lord my pasture shall prepare
The Lord my Saviour is my light
The Lord my shepherd is
The Lord of glory is my light
The Lord, the God of glory reigns
The Lord, the Judge, before his throne
The Lord, the Judge, his churches warns
The praises of my God and King
There is a God, all nature speaks
They who in ships, with courage bold
Think, mighty God, on feeble man
This is the day the Lord hath made
This spacious earth is all the Lord's
Thou art my portion, O my God
Thou God, by whose command I live
Thou God of love, thou ever blest
Thou, Lord, hast earth's foundation laid
Thou, Lord, in heaven hast plac'd thy throne 145
Thou, Lord, through every changing scene 126
Through all the changing scenes of life
Thus the eternal Father spake
Thus far the Lord has led me on
Thus saith the Lord, your work is vain
Thy favour, gracious Lord, display
Thy mercy, Lord, my only hope
Thy mercies fill the earth, O Lord
Thy name, Almighty Lord
Thy name, O God, my heart avows
Thy praise, O God, in Zion waits
Thy word is like a heavenly light
To thee, great God, will I disclose
To thee, most holy and most high
To thee, my God, my heart shall bring
To thine almighty arm we owe
To your Creator, God
VAST are thy works, Almighty Lord
Unshaken as the sacred hill
WE bless the Lord, the just, the good
Welcome, thou day of sacred rest
What seraph of celestial birth
What shall I render to my God
What sinners value I resign
When fancy spreads her boldest wings
When God reveal'd his gracious name
When Israel, freed from Pharaoh's hand
When I survey life's varied scene
When, overwhelm'd with pain and grief 82 105
Where nothing dwelt but beasts of prey
With all my powers of heart and tongue
With songs and honours sounding loud
Who shall ascend thy heavenly placc
Why do the wealthy wicked boast
Why doth the Lord stand off so far
Why doth the inan of riches grow
Why should I vex my soul, and fret
Yet, saith the Lord, if David's race,
YE boundless realms of joy
Ye servants of th' eternal King
Ye servants of th' almighty King
N. B. The HYMNs are placed in the alphabet-
ical order of their initial letters.
1 ABSURD and vain attempt! to bind
With iron chains, the freeborn mind;
To force conviction, and reclaim
The wandering, by destructive flame !
2 Bold arrogance, to snatch from heaven
Dominion not to mortals given !
O'er conscience to usurp the throne,
Accountable to God alone.
3 Mad zeal! that fills the world with woe!
That hurls down kingdoms at a blow !
That wakens vengeance to devour
The foes of antichristian power.
4 Jesus, thy gentle law of love
Does no such cruelties approve ;
Mild as thyself, thy doctrine wields
No arms, but what persuasion yields.
5 By proofs divine and reason strong,
It draws the willing soul along;
And conquests to thy church acquires,
By eloquence, which Heaven inspires.
6 O happy, who are thus compell'd
To the rich feast, by Jesus held !
May we this blessing know, and prize
The light which liberty supplies.
