1. How sweet the name of Jesus sounds In a believer's ear!

It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fear.

2. It makes the wounded spirit whole,
And calms the troubled breast;
'Tis manna to the hungry soul,
And for the weary, rest.

3. By Thee, my prayers acceptance gain,
Although with sin defiled;
Satan accuses me in vain,

And I am owned a child.

4. Jesus! my Shepherd, Guardian, Friend,
My Prophet, Priest, and King;
My Lord, iny Life, my Way, my End,
Accept the praise I bring.

5. Weak is the effort of my heart,

And cold my warmest thought;
But when I see Thee as Thou art,
I'll praise Thee as I ought.

6. Till then, I would Thy love proclaim,
With every fleeting breath;
And may the music of Thy name,
Refresh my soul in death.

1. GRACE, like an uncorrupted seed, Abides and reigns within;

Immortal principles forbid
The sons of God to sin.

Do they perform His will,

But, with the noblest powers they have,
His sweet commands fulfill.

3. They find access at every hour,

To God within the vail;

Hence they derive a quickening power,
And joys that never fail.

4. O happy souls! O glorious state
Of overflowing grace!

To dwell so near their Father's seat,
And see His lovely face!

5. Lord, I address Thy heavenly throne,
Call me a child of Thine;
Send down the Spirit of Thy Son,
To form my heart divine.

6. There shed Thy choicest love abroad,
And make my comforts strong;
Then shall I say-" My Father, God,"
With an unwavering tongue.

WATTS.

2. Ho! all ye hungry, starving souls,
That feed upon the wind,
And vainly strive with earthly toys
To fill an empty mind!—

3. Eternal wisdom has prepared
A soul-reviving feast,

And bids your longing appetites
The rich provision taste.

4. Ho! ye that pant for living streams,
And pine away and die!

Here you may quench your raging thirst
With springs that never dry.

5. Rivers of love and mercy, here,
In a rich ocean join;
Salvation in abundance flows,

Like floods of milk and wine.

6. The happy gates of gospel-grace
Stand open night and day;—
Lord! we are come to seek supplies,
And drive our wants away,

PRAISE Him, who with the Father sits

Enthroned upon the skies;

Whose blood redeems our souls from guilt Whose Spirit sanctifies.

611. S. M.

2. O watch, and fight, and pray; The battle ne'er give o'er;

Renew it boldly every day,

And help divine implore.

3. Ne'er think the victory won,

Nor lay thine armor down;

Thy arduous work will not be done,

Till thou obtain thy crown.

4. Fight on, my soul, till death

Shall bring thee to thy God; He'll take thee, at thy parting breath, To His divine abode.

HEATH.

612. S. M.

1. SOLDIERS of Christ, arise,

And gird your armor on,

Strong in the strength which God supplies Through his eternal Son.

2. Strong in the Lord of hosts,

And in His mighty power,

Who in the strength of Jesus trusts
Is more than conqueror.

3. Leave no unguarded place,

No weakness of the soul; Take every virtue, every grace, And fortify the whole.

4. But above all lay hold

On faith's victorious shield; Armed with that adamant and gold, Be sure to win the field.

5. Stand, then, in His great might, With all His strength endued,

And take, to arm you for the fight,
The panoply of God;-

6. That, having all things done,
And all your conflicts past,

You may o'ercome through Christ alone, And stand complete at last.

7. From strength to strength go on; Wrestle, and fight, and pray; Tread all the powers of darkness down, And win the well-fought day.

8. Still let the Spirit cry,

In all his soldiers, "Come,"

Till Christ the Lord descends from high, And takes the conquerors home.

5. All honor to His name,
Who marks the shining way;

To Him, who leads the wanderer on
To realms of endless day.

617. S. M.

1. REJOICE in God alway;

DODDRIDGE

When earth looks heavenly bright, When joy makes glad the livelong day, And peace shuts in the night.

2. Rejoice when care and woe

The fainting soul oppress;

When tears at wakeful midnight flow,
And morn brings heaviness.

3. Rejoice in hope and fear;

Rejoice in life and death;

Rejoice when threatening storms are near, And comfort languisheth.

4. When should not they rejoice,

Whom Christ His brethren calls;
Who hear and know His guiding voice,
When on their hearts it falls?

5. So, though our path is steep,
And many a tempest lowers,
Shall His own peace our spirits keep,
And Christ's dear love be ours.

618. S. M.

1. JESUS' tremendous name

Puts all our foes to flight; Jesus, the meek, the gentle Lamb A Lion is, in fight.

2. By all Hell's host withstood,

We all Hell's host o'erthrow; And conquering them in Jesus' blood We still to conquer go.

3. Our Captain leads us on;

He beckons from the skies, And reaches out a starry crown, And bids us take the prize;

4. "Be faithful unto death; Partake My victory;

And thou shalt wear this glorious wreath, And thou shalt reign with Me."

DOXOLOGY. S. M.

Blest Trinity! vouchsafe

C. WESLEY.

That, to Thy guidance true,

What Thou forbiddest, we may shun;

What Thou commandest, do.

2. Though in a foreign land,

We are not far from home, And nearer to our house above We every moment come.

3. His grace will to the end

Stronger and brighter shine,

Nor present things, nor things to come, Shall quench the spark divine.

4. When we in darkness walk,

Nor feel the heavenly flame, Then is the time to trust our God, And rest upon His name.

5. Soon shall our doubts and fears Subside at His control;

His loving-kindness shall break through The midnight of the soul.

6. Blest is the man, O God,

That stays himself on Thee!

Who waits for Thy salvation, Lord,
Shall Thy salvation see.

2. Our guilty spirits dread

To meet the wrath of Heaven; But in His righteousness arrayed, We see our sins forgiven.
