66

And they shall be Mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up My jewels."

1 THINE for ever! God of love,

Hear us from Thy throne above;
Thine for ever may we be
Here and in eternity.

2 Thine for ever! Lord of life,
Shield us through our earthly strife;
Thou the Life, the Truth, the Way,
Guide us to the realms of day.

3 Thine for ever! O how blest
They who find in Thee their rest!

Saviour, Guardian, Heavenly Friend, O defend us to the end.

4 Thine for ever! Shepherd, keep
Us Thy frail and trembling sheep;
Safe alone beneath Thy care,
Let us all Thy goodness share.

5 Thine for ever! Thou our guide,
All our wants by Thee supplied,
All our sins by Thee forgiven,
Lead us, Lord, from earth to heaven.

4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes, And gaze on Calvary,

O Lamb of God, my sacrifice!

I must remember Thee.

5 Remember Thee, and all Thy pains,
And all Thy love to me;

Yea, while a breath, a pulse remains,
Will I remember Thee.

6 And when these failing lips grow dumb,
And mind and memory flee,
When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come,
Good Lord, remember me.

Edward Miller, Mus. D.

"Then said He unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many.'

Y God, and is Thy table spread?
And does Thy cup with love o'er-
flow?

Thither be all Thy children led,

And let them all its sweetness know.

3 O let Thy table honoured be,
And furnished well with joyful
guests;

2 Hail, sacred feast, which Jesus makes! 4
Rich banquet of His flesh and blood!
Thrice happy he who here partakes
That sacred stream, that heavenly
food!

And may each soul salvation see
That here its sacred pledges tastes.

Let crowds approach with hearts pre

pared,

With hearts inflamed let all attend; Nor, when we leave our Father's board, The pleasure or the protit end.

5 Revive Thy dying churches, Lord!
And bid our drooping graces live;
And more, that energy afford,

A Saviour's love alone can give.

"I will love him, and will manifest Myself to him.

1 HERE, O my Lord, I see Thee face to face ;

Here would I touch and handle things unseen,
Here grasp with firmer hand the eternal grace,
And all my weariness upon Thee lean.

2 Here would I feed upon the bread of God,

Here drink with Thee the royal wine of heaven;
Here would I lay aside each earthly load,

Here taste afresh the calm of sin forgiven.

3 This is the hour of banquet and of song;

This is the heavenly table spread for me;
Here let me feast, and, feasting, still prolong
