But floods of grief could ne'er repay The debt of love I owe: Here, Lord, I give myself away; 'Tis all that I can do. SA HYMN 14. 7s. AVIOUR, when in dust to thee, Low we bow the adoring knee: When repentant to the skies, Scarce we lift our weeping eyes, Oh! by all the pains and woe, Suffer'd once for man below, Bending from thy throne on high; Hear our solemn Litany. By thy helpless infant years, By thy life of want and tears, By thy days of sore distress, In the savage wilderness; By the dread mysterious hour, Of th' insulting tempter's pow'r: Turn Oh! turn a favouring eye, Hear our solemn Litany. By thine hour of dire despair, By thine agony and prayer, By the cross, the nail, the thorn, Piercing spear and torturing scorn: By the gloom that veil'd the skies, O'er the dreadful sacrifice; Listen to our humble cry, EASTER DAY. HYMN 15. 78. CHRIST the Lord is risen to-day! Hallelujah. Our triumphant holiday grave, Hal. Who endur'd the cross and Hal. Hal. Lo! he rises, mighty King! Hal. Where, O death! is now thy sting? Hal.

Y God and is thy table spread, Thither be all thy children led, And let them all thy sweetness know. Hail, sacred feast, which JESUs makes, Rich banquet of His flesh and blood! Thrice happy he who here partakes That sacred stream, that heavenly food. O! let thy table honour'd be, And furnish'd well with joyful guests! And may each soul salvation see, That here its sacred pledges tastes. Let crowds approach; with hearts prepar'd, With hearts inflam'd, let all attend; Nor, when we leave our Father's board, The pleasure or the profit end. Revive thy dying churches, Lord, Bid all our drooping graces live, And more, that energy afford, A Saviour's blood alone can give. HYMN 18. S. M. ESUS invites his saints To meet around his board; For food he gives his flesh; This holy Bread and Wine Our heavenly Father calls We are but several parts Of the same broken bread; Let all our powr's be join'd His glorious Name to raise; Pleasure and love fill every mind, And every voice be praise.
