Him Three in One, and One in Three,
Extol to all eternity.

In His great name alone
All excellencies meet,
Who sits upon the throne,
And shall for ever sit :

Him Three in One, and One in Three,
Extol to all eternity.

Glory to God belongs;
Glory to God be given,
Above the noblest songs

Of all in earth or heaven!

Him Three in One, and One in Three,
Extol to all eternity.

11-10.a.

PRAISE ye Jehovah! Praise the Lord most

holy,

Who cheers the contrite, girds with strength the weak;

Praise Him who will with glory crown the lowly,

And with salvation beautify the meek.

2 Praise ye the Lord, for all His loving kind

ness:

And all the tender mercies He hath shown, Praise Him who pardons all our sin and blindness

And calls us sons, and takes us for His own. 3 Praise ye Jehovah! Source of all our blessing,

Before His gifts earth's richest boons are dim:

Resting in Him, His peace and joy possessing,

All things are ours, for we have all in Him. 4 Praise ye the Father! God the Lord, who

gave us,

With full and perfect love, His only Son;

Praise ye the Son! who died Himself to

save us:

Praise ye the Spirit! Praise the Three in
One!

Psalm xcv.

TATE & BRADY.

COME, loud anthems let us sing,
Loud thanks to our Almighty King;
For we our voices high should raise,
When our salvation's Rock we praise.
2 Into His presence let us haste,
To thank Him for His favours past;
To Him address, in joyful songs,
The praise that to His name belongs.
3 For God, the Lord, enthroned in state,
Is with unrivalled glory great;

The hills' great strength is in His hand,
He made the sea, He fixed the land.

4 O let us to His courts repair,
And bow with adoration there;
Low on our knees, devoutly, all
Before the Lord our Maker fall:

5 For He's our God, our Shepherd He,
The flock of His rich pasture we;
To-day, then, like His flock draw near,
To-day-if you His voice will hear.

22 (28)

YEhumble souls, approach your God,

With songs of sacred praise,
For He is good, immensely good,
And kind are all His ways.

2 All nature owns His guardian care,
In Him we live and move;

But nobler benefits declare
The wonders of His love.

8 He gave His Son, His only Son,

To ransom rebel worms;

"Tis here He makes His goodness known
In its diviner forms.

4 To this dear refuge, Lord, we come;
"Tis here our hope relies ;-
A safe defence, a peaceful home,
When storms of trouble rise.

5 Thine eye beholds, with kind regard,
The souls who trust in Thee;
Their humble hope Thou wilt reward
With bliss divinely free.

6 Great God! to Thy almighty love
What honours shall we raise?
Not all the raptured songs above
Can render equal praise.

L.M. 6 lines, triplets. C.WESLEY. Yonations of the earth, rejoice, E sons of men, lift up your voice,

In God rejoice, with one accord! Bow all your hearts before His face, Adore Him for creating grace,

And shout and sing to Christ the Lord. 2 Know, that the Lord is God alone; He made and claims us for His own, His creatures for Himself designed; We are the sheep of Israel's fold, The flock He hath redeemed of old; His people now is all mankind.

3 O enter then His courts with praise,
Press to the channels of His grace,

With joyful thanks your God proclaim:
Give Him the glory of His love,
And praise Him, like the hosts above,
And bless His all-redeeming name.

4 Praise Him, the faithful Lord and good! His mercy hath for ages stood;

His mercy stands for ever sure:

24

His steadfast truth shall never fail,
His word and oath unchangeable
Through all eternity endure.

11-10.6.

COME, ye disconsolate, where'er ye lan

guish,

Come, at the mercy-seat fervently kneel; Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish,

Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.

2 Here dwells the Father; love's waters are streaming

Forth from the throne of God, plenteous and pure;

Come to His temple for mercy redeeming; Earth has no sorrow that He cannot cure. 3 Here waits the Saviour, all gentle and loving, Ready to meet us, His grace to reveal: On Him cast the burden, trustfully coming; Earth has no sorrow that Christ cannot heal.

4 Here speaks the Comforter, Light of the straying,

Hope of the penitent, Advocate sure, Joy of the desolate! tenderly saying,

Earth has no sorrow My grace cannot

HOW pleasant, how divinely fair,

WATTS.

O Lord of Hosts, Thy dwellings are!
With long desire my spirit faints
To meet the assemblies of Thy saints.
2 My flesh would rest in Thine abode;
My panting heart cries out for God:
My God! my King! why should I be
So far from all my joys and Thee?

3 Blest are the saints who sit on high,
Around Thy throne of majesty';
Thy brightest glories shine above,
And all their work is praise and love.
4 Blest are the souls who find a place
Within the temple of Thy grace;
Here they behold Thy gentler rays,
And seek Thy face, and learn Thy praise.

5 Blest are the men whose hearts are set
To find the way to Zion's gate;

God is their strength, and through the road They lean upon their helper God.

6 Cheerful they walk with growing strength, Till all shall meet in heaven at length; Till all before Thy face appear,

And join in nobler worship there.

26 (314)

HOW charming is the place

Where my Redeemer God

Unveils the beauties of His face,
And sheds His love abroad!

2 Not the fair palaces

To which the great resort,
Are once to be compared with this,
Where Jesus holds His court.

3 Here, on the mercy-seat,

With radiant glory crowned,
Our joyful eyes behold Him sit,
And smile on all around,

4 To Him their prayers and cries
Each humble soul presents:
He listens to their broken sighs,
And grants them all their wants.

5 To them His sovereign will
He graciously imparts;

And, in return, accepts, with smiles,
The tribute of their hearts.
