224 2 While God invites, how blest the day. While yet a pardoning God is found. And none be found to hear or save. While yet a pardoning God is found. We'ye Qayching to Zion. "Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King."—Ps. cxlix. 2. OME, ye that love the Lord, And let your joys be known; Join in a song with sweet accord, And thus surround the throne. We're marching to Zion, Beautiful, beautiful Zion, We're marching upward to Zion, The beautiful city of God. 2 Let those refuse to sing Who never knew our God; But children of the heavenly King, But children of the heavenly King, Must speak their joys abroad, 3 The hill of Zion yields A thousand sacred sweets Before we reach the heavenly fields, Or walk the golden streets, 225 4 Then let our songs abound, We're marching through Immanuel's ground, We're marching through Immanuel's ground, To fairer worlds on high. I Stood Outside the Gate. "Enter ye in at the strait gate."—MATT. vii. 13. Tune-Sacred Songs and Solos, No. 225. I STOOD outside the gate, And prayed outside the gate, She washed away my guilt, And gave me peace and rest, 3 In Mercy's guise I knew The Saviour long abused, 226 Choose Ye Go-Day "Choose you this day whom ye will serve."-JOSH. xiv. 15. Tune-Sacred Songs and Solos, No. 226. A BLESSING for you—will you take it? Choose ye to-day: A word from the heart-will you speak it? Will you believe, or your Saviour neglect? 2 A death to be feared-will you fear it? A voice that invites-will you hear it? Strait is the portal and narrow the way, 3 The cross of your Lord-will you bear it? There's life in that cross-will you share it? Soon will your time of probation be o'er, 4 The bondage of sin-will you break it? The Water of Life-will you take it? Come to the arms that are open for you, Hide in the wounds that by faith you may view ; Death ere the morrow your steps may pursue : Choose ye to-day. 227 Come, for the Feast is Spread. COME, Come, for all things are now ready."—LUKE xiv. 17. for the feast is spread; Hark to the call! Come to His "house of wine," Low on His breast recline, 2 Come where the fountain flows-River of life— 3 Come to the throne of grace, Boldly draw near; 4 Come to the Better Land, Pilgrim, make haste! Here are the harps of gold, Here are the joys untold— 5 Jesus, we come to Thee, Oh, take us in! Set Thou our spirits free; Cleanse us from sin! Then, in yon land of light, Clothed in our robes of white, 228 Jesus shall Reign. "He shall have dominion from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the 229 2 To Him shall endless prayer be made, Then all the earth shall rise and bring The Anchored Soul. "Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, sure and steadfast."-HEB. vi. 19. Tune-Sacred Songs and Solos, No. 229. AM resting so sweetly in Jesus now! I sail the wide sea no more; The tempests may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep- I have anchored my soul in the haven of rest, I sail the wild seas no more, no more; The tempests may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep, 2 Oh, long on the ocean my bark was tossed--- 3 Oh, how sweet in a haven of rest to hide- 230 The ocean may roll, but there's rest for the soul Save Me at the Cross. "God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ." GAL. vi. 14. Tune-Sacred Songs and Solos, No, 230. Lov OVING Saviour, hear my cry, I have sinned, but Thou hast died; In Thy mercy let me hide, Oh, save me at the cross. Lord Jesus, receive me, No more would I grieve thee |
