3 From east to west, from north to south,
Then be his name adored:

Let earth, with all its millions, shout
Hosanna to the Lord!

Prayer for the Conversion of the World. 1 INDULGENT Sovereign of the skies, And wilt thou bow thy gracious ear? While feeble mortals raise their cries, Wilt thou, the great Jehovah, hear? 2 Look down, O God, with pitying eye, And view the desolation round; See what wide realms in darkness lie, What scenes of wo and crime abound! 3 Loud let the gospel trumpet blow, And call the nations from afar; Let all the isles their Saviour know, And earth's remotest ends draw near. L. M. PRATT'S COLL.

1 SOVEREIGN of worlds! display thy power,
Be this thy Zion's favoured hour;
Oh bid the morning-star arise,
Oh point the heathen to the skies.

2 Set up thy throne where Satan reigns,
In western wilds, and heathen plains,
Far let the gospel's sound be known;
Make thou the universe thine own.

3 Speak! and the world shall hear thy voice:
Speak! and the desert shall rejoice:
Scatter the gloom of heathen night,
Bid every nation hail the light.
511. C. M. MONTGOMERY.

Restoration of Israel.

1 DAUGHTER of Zion, from the dust Exalt thy fallen head;

Again in thy Redeemer trust,

He calls thee from the dead.

2 Awake, awake! put on thy strength,
Thy beautiful array;

The day of freedom dawns at length,
The Lord's appointed day.

3 Rebuild thy walls, thy bounds enlarge,
And send thy heralds forth;
Say to the south, "Give up thy charge,
And keep not back, O north!"

4 They come, they come;-thine
Where'er they rest or roam,

exiled bands

Have heard thy voice in distant lands,
And hasten to their home.

False Religions supplanted by Christianity. 1 ARISE? arise!-with joy survey The glory of the later day:

Already is the dawn begun

Which marks at hand a rising sun! 2 "Behold the way!" ye heralds, cry: Spare not-but lift your voices high: Convey the sound from pole to pole, "Glad tidings," to the captive soul. 3"Behold the way to Zion's hill, Where Israel's God delights to dwell He fixes there his lofty throne, And calls the sacred place his own." 4 The north gives up-the south no more Keeps back her consecrated store: From east to west the message runs, And either India yields her sons. 5 Auspicious dawn!-thy rising ray With joy we view--and hail the day: Great Sun of Righteousness! arise, And fill the world with glad surprise.

Victories of Christ.

1 GIRD thy sword on, mighty Saviour,
Make the word of truth thy car:
Prosper in thy course, triumphant;
All success attend thy war;
Gracious victor,

Bring thy trophies from afar.

1 WITH our substance we will honour
Our Redeemer and our Lord;
Were ten thousand worlds our manor,
All were nothing to his word.
2 While the heralds of salvation

His abounding grace proclaim,
Let his friends, of every station,
Gladly join to spread his fame.
3 May his kingdom be promoted;
May the world the Saviour know;
Be our all to him devoted;

To our Lord our all we owe.
4 Praise the Saviour, all ye nations;
Praise him, all ye hosts above;
Shout with joyful acclamations,
His divine-victorious love.

L. M. PRATT'S COLL Departure of Missionaries. 1 YE Christian heroes, go, proclaim Salvation in Immanuel's name; To distant climes the tidings bear, And plant the rose of Sharon there. 2 He'll shield you with a wall of fireWith holy zeal your hearts inspire; Bid raging winds their fury cease, And calm the savage breast to peace. 3 And when our labours all are o'er, Then shall we meet to part no more; Meet-with the blood-bought throng to fall, And crown our Jesus-Lord of all.

520.

S. M. PRATT'S COLL.

YE messengers of Christ,
His sovereign voice obey;
rise, and follow where he leads,
And peace attend your way!

The Master whom you serve
Will needful strength bestow;
Depending on his promised aid,
With sacred courage-go.

3 Go, spread the Saviour's fame;
Go, tell his matchless grace;
Proclaim salvation full and free
To Adam's guilty race.

4 Mountains shall sink to plains,
And hell in vain oppose;

The cause is God's-and will prevail
In spite of all his foes.

Subjection of the Nations to Christ prayed for.
1 SOON may the last glad song arise,
Through all the millions of the skies-
That song of triumph which records
That all the earth is now the Lord's!

2 Let thrones, and powers, and kingdoms be Obedient, mighty God, to thee!

And over land, and stream, and main,
Now wave the sceptre of thy reign'
3 Oh let that glorious anthem swell;
Let host to host the triumph tell-
That not one rebel heart remains,
But over all the Saviour reigns!

522.

C. M. VERMONT COLL.

Reign of Christ.
1 HASTEN, O Lord, the latter day,
When grace shall reign alone;
And all the nations of the world
Shall bow before thy throne.

2 Then shall pure converts crowd thy gates, Press to the gospel sound;

And grace eternal sweetly shine,
To ravish all around.

3 Then shall the watchmen of the Lamb,
Raise the dear cross on high;

And from a clear refulgent light,
Shall all see eye to eye.

4 Lord, we would bless thee for a ray
Of such triumphant grace,

That leads to everlasting day,
And pure eternal bliss.

523.

C. M. NEEDHAM.

Prayer for the spread of the Gospel.
1 GREAT God of grace, arise and shine,
With beams of heavenly light;
From this dark world of sin dispel
The long and doleful night.

2 No more may senseless idols share
The honours due to thee:
May every nation know thy name,
And thy salvation see.

3 No more may persecution dare
To lift her iron rod;

No longer shed the blood of saints
And plead a zeal for God.

4 With its own pure and native light,
Lord, may thy gospel shine:
May error fly like noxious mists
Before this light divine.

5 Whilst heaven-born truth her charms re

May love each breast inspire;

Nor one base passion ever mix,
To quench this sacred fire.

[veals,

LIFE, DEATH, RESURRECTION, JUDGMENT AND

ETERNITY.

The Wisdom of redeeming Time.

1 GOD of eternity! from thee

Did infant time his being draw:

Moments and days, and months and years, Revolve by thine unvaried law.

2 Silent and swift they glide away

Steady and strong the current flows, Lost in eternity's wide sea,

The boundless gulf from which it rose.

With it the thoughtless sons of men Before the rapid stream are borne to their everlasting home,

Whence not one soul can e'er return.
