2 Let the seed which has been scattered
Bring forth plenteous fruit to Thee;
Let this day be crowned with praises
Now, and in eternity.
3 Keep us through the week from danger;
May we all by Thee be led ;
Grant that for our souls and bodies
We may still have daily bread.
4 Clothe and feed us, guard and bless us,
Bless our friends and all we love;
All through life wilt Thou be near us,
Then receive us all above.
5 Then we hope to praise Thee better,
When we join the heavenly host:
But we now our praise would give Thee,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
"Sing praises to His Name."
Ps. lxviii. 4.
GOD who hath made the daisies,
And every lovely thing,
He will accept our praises,
And hearken while we sing.
He says though we are simple,
Though ignorant we be,-
Suffer the little children,
And let them come to Me.
2 Though we are young and simple,
In praise we may be bold,
The children in the temple,
He heard in days of old.
And if our hearts be humble,
He says to you and me,-
Suffer the little children,
And let them come to Me.
3 Therefore we will come near Him,
And solemnly we'll sing,
No cause to shrink or fear Him,
We'll make our voices ring;
For in our temple speaking,
He says to you and me,-
Suffer the little children,
And let them come to Me.
"He shall give His Angels charge over thee." Ps. xci. 11.
ROUND the Throne of God a band
Of glorious Angels ever stand;
Bright things they see, sweet harps they hold,
And on their heads are crowns of gold.
2 Some wait around Him, ready still
To sing His praise and do His will;
And some, when He commands them, go
To guard His Servants here below.
3 Lord, give Thy Angels every day
Command to guide us on our way,
And bid them every evening keep
Their watch around us while we sleep.
4 So shall no wicked thing draw near,
To do us harm or cause us fear;
And we shall dwell, when life is past,
With Angels round Thy Throne at last.
"Growing in Grace."
2 Peter, iii. 18.
1 THE roseate hues of early dawn,
The brightness of the day,
The crimson of the sunset sky,
How fast they fade away!
O, for the pearly gates of heaven!
O, for the golden floor!
O, for the Sun of Righteousness
That setteth nevermore!
2 The highest hopes we cherish here,
How fast they tire and faint!
How many a spot defiles the robe
That wraps an earthly saint!
O, for a heart that never sins,
O, for a soul washed white.
O, for a voice to praise our King,
Nor weary day nor night.
2 Here faith is ours, and heavenly hope,
And grace to lead us higher
But there are perfectness and peace,
Beyond our best desire:
O, by Thy love and anguish, Lord,
O, by Thy life laid down,
O, that we fall not from Thy grace,
Nor cast away our crown!
A beautiful land, by faith I see
A charge to keep I have..
A few more years shall roll
A home in heaven! what a joyful
A little pilgrim on life's way
A little ship was on the sea
A sinner, Lord, behold I stand
Abide with me, fast falls the eventide ;..
Accept our glad thanksgivings, Lord
All the words which God hath spoken.
All ye Gentiles, praise the Lord
All ye that pass by, to Jesus draw nigh
Almighty Father, heavenly King
Almighty God, in humble prayer
Almighty God, Thy name I praise
Almighty God, Thy piercing eye

Almighty God, while earth and heaven
Almighty God, who dwellest high
Am I a soldier of the cross
And are there countries far away
And now, my soul, another year
And shall we dwell together
Around the throne of God in heaven
As the sun's enlivening eye
As the winged arrow flies
At Thy footstool, lowly bending
Author of life, with grateful heart
Awake, my soul, and with the sun
Awake, our souls, away our fears
Awake, sweet harp of Judah, wake
Away with needless sorrow
Beauteous scenes on earth appear R. Robinson 475
Beautiful Zion! built above
Before Jehovah's awful throne
Begone, my worldly cares, away
Begone, unbelief
Behold stranger at the door..
Behold the morning sun
Behold the Redeemer of man
Behold the throne of grace
Beset with snares on every hand
Bless'd Saviour, hear our hymns of praise
Blest are the sons of peace
Blest be the dear uniting love..
Blest be the tie that binds
Blest is the work in wisdom's way
Blow ye the trumpet, blow
Brightest and best of the sons of the morning.. 494
By cool Siloam's shady rill
Captain and Saviour of the host
Chief Shepherd of Thy chosen sheep
Children of God-O blessed name
Children of Jerusalem
Children of the heavenly King
Children who are gone to glory
Children! you have gone astray
Children's voices high in heaven
Christ is merciful and mild
Christ, the Lord, is risen to-day
Come away from the train
Come, children, join the angelic throng
Come, gracious spirit, heavenly dove
Come, happy children, come and raise..
Come, Holy Spirit, calm my mind
Come, Holy Spirit, come
Come in, thou blessed of the Lord
Come let us join our cheerful songs
Come, let us join the hosts above
Come, let us leave the world awhile
Come, let us sing of Jesus
Come, my soul, thy suit prepare
Come, sing to me of heaven
Creator, Redeemer, and Spirit of truth
Day by day the manna fell
Delightful work, important charge
Dismiss us with Thy blessing, Lord
Do not I love Thee, O my Lord
Earth with her ten thousand flowers
Ere childhood ripen into youth
Eternal God! before Thy throne
Eternal God! incline Thine ear
Every morning the red sun
I. P. C.
J. Harbottle 496
Faint not, Christian, though the road
Fair waved the golden corn
Far too often men are crying
Farewell, my friends, beloved, &c.
Father and Friend, Thy light, Thy
Father, I know that all my life
Father in heaven, for Jesus' sake
Father, in high heaven dwelling
Father, let Thy benediction
Father of all, in whom alone
Father of heaven, to Thee we raise
Father of love and power
Father of love, our Guide and Friend
Father of mercies, in Thy word
Father, Thy heavenly gifts afford
Father, whate'er of earthly bliss
"For ever with the Lord!"
From all that dwell below the skies
From Greenland's icy mountains
Gentle Jesus, meek and mild
Give dust to dust, and here we leave
Give to the Father praise
Glad was my heart to hear
"Glory to God," the angel said
Glory to Thee, my God, this night
Go, labour on, spend, and be spent
Go when the morning shineth
God bless our native land
God entrusts to all
God is goodness, wisdom, power
God is in His holy temple
God is in heaven!-can He hear
God is love, His mercy brightens
