2 Show us, Lord, the goal of life,

And give us heart to run; Breathe the peace that follows strife,

Lest future work we shun:
Hearts that hasty time has grieved
Are by.Sabbath calm relieved.

3 We would sing as in the rays
Of mercy ever bright,
Which endureth, to Thy praise,

70 (GORTON) S. M.

For ever Thy delight:

Sing for happiness we know,
Or that we may happy grow.

4 We would pray as those who stand
Their truest Friend beside,
Whom He takes as by the hand,
Unto their God to guide;
By His power, and for His sake,
Fully us Thy children make.

At the Close of Service

1 Lord of the hearts of men,

Thou hast vouchsafed to bless,

Rev. Thomas T. Lynch, 1855

O rest from thousand labors past!
O endless Sabbath day!

From age to age, Thy chosen saints 4 Here, amid cares and tears,

With fruits of holiness.

2 Here faith and hope and love

Reign in sweet bond allied;

Bearing the seed we come;

There, with rejoicing hearts, we bring
Our harvest burdens home.

There, when this little day is o'er, 5 Give, mighty Lord Divine,

Shall love alone abide.

3 O love, O truth, O light! Light never to decay!

The fruits Thyself dost love;

Soon shalt Thou, from Thy judgment-seat,
Crown Thine own gifts above.

Charles Coffin, 1736. Trans. by Bishop James R. Woodford, 1863

By day, by night; at home, a broad, I would be still with Thee.

A-MEN.
