O let my trembling soul be still,
O Lord! how happy should we be,
O Lord! through Thee we own,
O Lord! Thy heavenly grace impart,
O Love! how cheering is thy ray,
O lovely voices of the sky,
On earth was darkness spread,
One cup of healing oil and wine,.
One prayer I have, all prayers in one,
O, not alone on the mount of prayer,
O, not alone with outward sign,
"O, not for these alone I pray,"
O not to crush with abject fear,
O not when the death-prayer is said,
On the dark wave of Galilee,
O Thou great Friend to all the sons of men,
O Thou great Spirit, who along,
O Thou, in whom the weary find,
O Thou, the primal fount of life and peace,
O Thou, to whom in ancient time,
O source divine, and life of all,
O speed thee, Christian, on thy way,
O spirit, freed from earth,
O Spirit of the living God,
O stay thy tears! for they are blest,
O still trust on, if in the heart,
O suffering Friend of human kind,
O Thou, at whose divine command,
O Thou, at whose rebuke, the grave,
O Thou from whom all goodness flows,
O Thou, whose power o'er moving worlds presides,
O Thou, whose power stupendous,
O Thou, whose presence went before, .
Our blest Redeemer, ere he breathed, .
Our country is Immanuel's ground,
Our Father, God! not face to face,
Our Father, through the coming year,
Our Father! we thank Thee for sleep,
O what though our feet may not tread where Christ trod,
O where are kings and empires now,
O where shall rest be found, .
O who shall say he knows the folds,
Part in peace! is day before us,
Partners of a glorious hope,
Peace of God, which knows no measure,
Pour, blessed Gospel, glorious news for man,
Pour forth the oil, — pour boldly forth,
Praise and thanks and cheerful love,
Praise the Lord, when blushing morning,
Praise the Lord, ye heavens adore Him,
Praise to God, immortal praise,
Prayer is the soul's sincere desire,
Prayer is to God the soul's sure way,
Press on, press on! ye sons of light,
Prisoners of hope, be strong, be bold,.
Send kindly light amid the encircling gloom,
Shall we grow weary in our watch,
Shine on our souls, eternal God,
Sing, ye redeemed of the Lord,
Slavery and death the cup contains,
Sleep not, soldier of the cross,
Slowly, by God's hand unfurled,
Songs of praise the angels sang,
Sons of men, behold from far,
Soul! celestial in thy birth,
Source of light and life divine,
Sow in the morn thy seed,
Speak gently, it is better far,
Speak with us, Lord, Thyself reveal,
Spirit of peace and love and power,
Suppliant, lo! Thy children bend,
Supreme and universal Light,
Thanks, thanks unto God! who in mercy hath spoken,
The aged sufferer waited long,
The breaking waves dashed high,
The bud will soon become a flower,
The darkened sky, how thick it lowers,
The daylight is fading o'er earth and o'er ocean,
The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know, .
Thou art gone to the grave; but we will not deplore thee,.
Thou art, O God, the life and light, .
Though lonely be thy path, fear not, for He,
Though wandering in a strange land,
Thou givest Thy Sabbath, Lord! the din is stilled,
Thou hidden love of God, whose height, .
Thou Lord of hosts, whose guiding hand, .
Thou, Lord, who rear'st the mountain's height,
Thou must be born again,
Thou seest my feebleness,
Thou that art strong to comfort, look on me,
Thou, whose almighty word,
Through all the various shifting scene,
Through all this life's eventful road,
Throughout the hours of darkness dim,
Through thee as we together came,
Thus said Jesus, "Go and do,
Thy bounteous hand with food can bless,
Thy kingdom come," the heathen lands, .
Thy presence, ever-living God,
Thy servants in the temple watched,
Thy servant's sandals, Lord, are wet,
Thy way is on the deep, O Lord, .
Thy will be done! in devious way,
Thy will be done! I will not fear,
'Tis my happiness below,
'Tis not the gift, but 't is the spirit,
"To God be glory! peace on earth!"
To Him who children blest, .
To prayer, to prayer ! -for the morning breaks,
To Thee, O God in heaven,
To Thee, the Lord Almighty,
To the Father's love we trust,
To Thine eternal arms, O God,
Triumphant Zion! lift thy head,
Turn, child of doubt, estranged from God,
Turn not from him who asks of thee, .
Unchangeable, all-perfect Lord,
Unto Thy temple, God of love,
Up to the throne of God is borne,
Wait on the Lord, ye heirs of hope,
Was it in vain that Jesus prayed,
Watchman, tell us of the night,
We all, O Father, all are Thine,
We bless Thee for this sacred day,
Weep thou, O mourner, but in lamentation,
We follow, Lord, where Thou dost lead,
