BLOW ye the trumpet, blow: The gladly solemn sound Let all the nations know, The year of Jubilee is come; Return, ye ransomed sinners, home. Exalt the Lamb of God, Through all the world proclaim. 4 163 1 The news of heavenly grace: Jesus, our great High Priest, Ye weary spirits rest; Ye mourning souls be glad. The year of Jubilee is come; Return, ye ransomed sinners, home. "Go ye.. and teach all nations." FROM Greenland's icy mountains, From India's coral strand, Where Afric's sunny fountains From many an ancient river, Their land from error's chain D.7.6.7.6 2 Shall we, whose souls are lighted Has learned Messiah's name. 3 Waft, waft, ye winds, His story; 164 1 It spreads from pole to pole; In bliss return to reign. "Declare His praise in the islands." SHINE, mighty God, on Britain shine, Reveal Thy power through all our coasts, 2 When shall Thy name, from shore to shore, Sound all the earth abroad; And distant nations know and love 3 Sing to the Lord, ye distant lands, 3 He, the great Lord, the sovereign Judge, Wisely commands the worlds He made 5 God, the Redeemer, scatters round 165 1 While the creation's utmost bound "The Lord is round about His people." GOD bless our native land; May Heaven's protecting hand C.M. 2-C'8.4.2 6'8.4. 166 1 May peace her power extend, 2 Through every changing scene, Her heart inspire and move Her throne maintain. 3 May just and righteous laws Home of the brave and free, 4 And not this land alone: The wide world o'er. "All nations shall serve Him." FROM all that dwell below the skies, Let the Creator's praise arise; Let the Redeemer's name be sung, 2 Eternal are Thy mercies, Lord; 167 MORNING AND EVENING. "Bring your sacrifices every morning." 1 AWAKE, my soul, and, with the sun, Shake off dull sloth, and joyful rise, L.M L.M 2 Thy precious time, mis-spent, redeem; Keep conscience, as the noon-tide clear; 5 Lord, I my vows to Thee renew: 6 Direct, control, suggest, this day, 168 1 That all my powers, with all their might, Praise God, &c. (As at 115.) NOW the morning's cheerful light Drives away the gloom of night; Rise, our souls, in praises rise, Far above the lofty skies. 2 Keep us, gracious God, this day; 3 Let no sin an entrance find, To pollute our youthful mind; 169 1 My voice shalt Thou hear in the morning." TIMELY happy, timely wise, Hearts that with rising morn arise! Eyes that the beam celestial view, 2 New every morning is the love Our wakening and uprising prove; L.M. Through sleep and darkness safely brought, 3 New mercies, each returning day, Hover around us while we pray; New perils past, new sins forgiven, New thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven. 4 Our Father God! in Thy dear love, Fit us for perfect rest above; And help us, this and every day, To live more nearly as we pray. 170 1 "The people came early to hear Him." LUKE XXI. 38. ORD, in the morning, Thou shalt hear My voice ascending high: To Thee will I direct my prayer, 2 Up to the hills, where Christ is gone 3 Thou art a God before whose sight, 4 But to Thy house will I resort, 5 O may Thy Spirit guide my feet 171 1 Make every path of duty straight, "The righteous shine forth as the sun." GOD of the morning, at whose voice C.M. L.M. The cheerful sun makes haste to rise, To run his journey through the skies: 2 From the fair chambers of the East, And without weariness or rest, 3 0, like the sun, may I fulfil The appointed duties of the day; With ready mind and active will March on, and keep my heavenly way. |
