HYMN 534. C. M. Springfield. Barby.

K. White. Luther's Hymn. Sterling. 2 COME, christian brethren! ere we part Join every voice and every heart. One solemn hymn to God we raise, And there, releas'd from toil aud pain, HYMN 536. C. M. Barby. Newmark. C. W. I BLEST be the dear, uniting love, Our bodies may far off remove- 2 Join'd in one Spirit to our Head, 3 Partakers of the Saviour's grace, 4 But let us hasten to the day, Which shall our flesh restore; When death shall all be done away, And christians part no more!
