HYMNS.

4 6's-2 8's.

1 A broken heart, O God!
Thou never wilt despise;
'Tis written in Thy word,
This is the sacrifice-

The sacrifice that Thou wilt own,
It is, the broken heart alone.

2 Then break this heart, O Lord,
The rock within me break;
To tremble at Thy word,
And at Thine anger quake:
Let me in deep contrition lie,
And heave the penetential sigh.

3 Sweet mercy dwells with Thee,
Compassion, all divine:

That mercy show to me,

Be that compassion mine :

For sinners Jesus Thou did'st bleed,
Jesus Thy blood alone I plead.

1 "ABBA, Father," we approach Thee In our Saviour's precious name, We, Thy children, now assembling, Here Thy promised blessing claim. From our sins His blood hath wash'd us, 'Tis through Him our souls draw nigh; 'Tis Thy Spirit who has taught us,

Abba, Father," thus to cry.

2 Clothed in garments of salvation, At Thy table is our place; We rejoice, and Thou rejoicest, In the riches of Thy grace. "It is meet," we hear Thee saying, "We should merry be and glad; I have found my once lost children, Now they live who once were dead.” 3 "Abba, Father !" all adore Thee, All rejoice in heaven above; While in us they learn the wonders Of Thy wisdom, grace, and love. Soon before Thy throne assembled, All Thy children shall proclaim; "Glory, everlasting glory,

Be to God and to the Lamb!"

C. M.

1 ACCORDING to Thy gracious word,
In meek humility,

This will I do, my dying Lord,
I will remember Thee.

4.

2 Can I Gethsemane forget?
Or there Thy conflict see,
Thine agony, and bloody sweat,-
And not remember Thee?

3 When to the cross I turn mine eyes,
And rest on Calvary :

O Lamb of God, my sacrifice!
I must remember Thee :-

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

Yes, while a pulse or breath remains,
Will I remember Thee :

5 And when these failing lips grow dumb,
And thought and mem❜ry flee,

When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come,
Jesus, remember me.

C. M.

1 ALMIGHTY Father, God of Love,
We all, like sheep astray,

In folly from Thy paths have turn'd,
Each to his sinful way.

2 Sins of omission, and of act,

Through all our lives abound;

Alas! in thought, and word, and deed,
No health in us is found.

3 Spare us good Lord, in mercy spare-
Our contrite hearts restore,

Through Him who suffer'd on the cross,
And our transgressions bore:

5.

6.

4 And grant, O Father, for His sake,
That we, through all our days,
A just and godly life may lead
To Thine eternal praise.

L. M.

1 ASHAM D of Jesus, can it be,

A ransom'd soul asham'd of Thee?
Asham'd of Thee, whom angels praise,
Whose glories shine thro' endless days!

2 Asham'd of Jesus! of that friend

On whom my hopes of heav'n depend;
No; when I blush-be this my shame,
That I no more revere His name.

3 Asham'd of Jesus! yes, I may,
When I've no sins to wash away;
No tears to wipe, no help to crave,
And no immortal soul to save.

4 Till then, I'll boast in Jesus' name,
Till then I boast a Saviour slain,
And Oh! may this my glory be,
That Saviour's not asham'd of me.

L. M.

1 ALMIGHTY Father, bless Thy Word
Which through Thy mercy, we have heard:
O may the precious seed take root,
Spring up, and bear abundant fruit.

7.

2 Teach us good Lord, to seek Thy face,
And thank Thee for the means of grace;
That we, who worship here may meet
Round Thy celestial mercy-seat.

C. M.

1 ALL hail the great Emanuel's name;
Ye angels prostrate fall;

Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown Him Lord of all.

2 Crown Him, ye martyrs of our God,
Who from His altar call;

Extol the stem of Jesse's rod,
And crown Him Lord of all.

3 Ye chosen seed of Israel's race,
Redeem'd from Israel's fall,
Adore Him for His wondrous grace,
And crown Him Lord of all.

4 Ye Gentiles come, with all your kings
Throughout this earthly ball;

To Zion come-behold Him there,
And crown Him Lord of all.

5 Oh! that with yonder sacred throng,
We at His feet may fall;

Join there the everlasting song,
And crown Him Lord of all.

1 AND dost Thou

L. M.

say, Ask what thou wilt," Lord, I would seize the golden hour;

I pray to be releas'd from guilt,

And freed from sin and Satan's power.
