6. All power to Him is given;

He ever reigns the same;
Salvation, happiness, and heaven,
Are all in Jesus' name.

S. M.

C. WESLEY.

1. Nor all the blood of beasts,
On Jewish altars slain,

Could give the guilty conscience peace,
Or wash away the stain.

2. But Christ, the heavenly Lamb,
Takes all our sins away ;

A sacrifice of nobler name,

And richer blood than they.

3. My faith would lay her hand
On that dear head of Thine,
While like a penitent I stand,
And there confess my sin.

4. My soul looks back, to see

The burdens Thou didst bear,
When hanging on the cursed tree,
And hopes her guilt was there.

5. Believing, we rejoice

To see the curse remove;

We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice,
And sing His bleeding love.

S. M.

1. RAISE your triumphant songs
To an immortal tune;

Let all the earth resound the deeds

Celestial grace has done.

2. Sing how eternal love

Its chief Beloved chose,

And bade Him raise our wretched race

From their abyss of woes.

635.

WATTS.

3. His hand no thunder bears;

No terror clothes His brow;
No bolts to drive our guilty souls
To fiercer flames below.

4. 'Twas mercy filled the throne,
And wrath stood silent by,
When Christ was sent with pardons down
To rebels doomed to die,

5. Now, sinners, dry your tears;
Let hopeless sorrow cease;
Bow to the scepter of His love,
And take the offered peace.

6. Lord, we obey Thy call;
We lay an humble claim
To the salvation Thou has brought,
And love and praise Thy name.

636.

S. M.

1. BEHOLD, what wondrous grace
The Father has bestowed

On sinners of a mortal race,
To call them sons of God!

2. Nor doth it yet appear

How great we must be made;
But when we see our Saviour here,
We shall be like our Head.

3. A hope so much divine

May trials well endure;

May purify our souls from sin,
As Christ, the Lord, is pure.

4. If in my Father's love

I share a filial part,

Send down Thy Spirit, like a dove,
To rest upon my heart,

WATTS.

5. We would no longer lie

Like slaves beneath the throne;
Our faith shall Abba, Father, cry,
And Thou the kindred own.

S. M.

1. To God the only wise,

Our Saviour and our King,

Let all the saints below the skies
Their humble praises bring.

2. 'Tis His almighty love,

His counsel and His care,

Preserves us safe from sin and death,
And every hurtful snare.

3. He will present our souls,
Unblemished and complete,
Before the glory of His face,
With joys divinely great.

4. Then all the chosen seed

Shall meet around the throne,
Shall bless the conduct of His grace,
And make His wonders known.

5. To our Redeemer God

Wisdom and power belongs,
Immortal crowns of majesty,
And everlasting songs.

S. M.

1. COME, ye that love the Lord,
And let your joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord,
And thus surround the throne.

2. Let those refuse to sing,

That never knew our God;

But favorites of the heavenly King
May speak their joys abroad.

WATTS.

3. The men of grace have found
Glory begun below:

Celestial fruits on earthly ground
From faith and hope may grow.

4. The hill of Zion yields

A thousand sacred sweets
Before we reach the heavenly fields,
Or walk the golden streets.

5. Then let our songs abound,

And every tear be dry;

We're marching through Immanuel's ground

To fairer worlds on high.

Doxology. S. M.

To God, the Father, Son,
And Spirit, glory be:

As was, and is, and shall be so,
Through all eternity.

1. SONGs of praise the angels sang,
Heaven with hallelujahs rang,
When Jehovah's work begun,
When He spake, and it was done.

2. Songs of praise awoke the morn,
When the Prince of Peace was born;
Songs of praise arose, when He
Captive led captivity.

WATTS.

3. Heaven and earth must pass away-
Songs of praise shall crown that day;
God will make new heavens and earth-
Songs of praise shall hail their birth.

4. And shall man alone be dumb,
Till that glorious kingdom come?
No; the Church delights to raise
Psalms and hymns and songs of praise.

640.

5. Saints below, with heart and voice,
Still in songs of praise rejoice;
Learning here, by faith and love,
Songs of praise to sing above.
6. Borne upon the latest breath,
Songs of praise shall conquer death;
Then, amidst eternal joy,

Songs of praise their powers employ.

1. JESUS lives, and so shall I.

MONTGOMERY.

Death! thy sting is gone forever:
He, who deigned for me to die,

Lives, the bands of death to sever.
He shall raise me with the just:
Jesus is my Hope and Trust.
2. Jesus lives and reigns supreme;
And, His kingdom still remaining,
I shall also be with him,

Ever living, ever reigning.
God has promised; be it must:
Jesus is my Hope and Trust.
3. Jesus lives, and God extends

Grace to each returning sinner;
Rebels He receives as friends,

And exalts to highest honor.
God is True as He is Just;
Jesus is my Hope and Trust.
4. Jesus lives, and by His grace,
Victory o'er my passions giving,
I will cleanse my heart and ways,
Ever to His glory living.

The weak He raises from the dust:
Jesus is my Hope and Trust.
5. Jesus lives, and I am sure

Naught shall e'er from Jesus sever,
Satan's wiles, and Satan's power,
Pain or pleasure—ye shall never!
Christian armor can not rust:
Jesus is my Hope and Trust.
