4 The rich inheritance of heav'n

Your joy, your boast is freely giv'n ;
Fair Salem your arrival waits,

With golden freets and pearly gates. 5 Her bless'd inhabitants no more,

Bondage and poverty deplore ;
No debt, but love immensely great,

The joy Nill rises with the debt.
6 O happy fouls that know the found?

Celestial light their steps furround,
And shew that jubilee begun,
Which thro'eternal years shall run.
HYMN CXVII. P. M.** [JOHN MURRAY.]

All in AH.
HOME, tho' we can truly fing,

In our fleth dwells no good thing:
Yet on him who gives us all,
We're embolden's still to call.
2 Blind, and foolish once were we,

Christ our wisdom now we see
In this wisdom, we confide,

By this, we are justifi'd.
3 Once in breaking God's command,
Doom'd to death beneath his hand

; Now we're call’d to own and bless,

Jesus Christ, our righteousoess. 4 Without purity of heart

Truth divine will say depart,
But this holiness we find,
In the Saviour of mankind.

Human thele, angelic chose,
Where for refuge fall we fee?

Chrif our great redemption fee ! 6 Seraphs, flames of sacred firs,

View this inyltry with desire ;
Hark! ibe bright enraptur'd throng

Catch, and raile the grateful fong. 7 Oye.ihrones of heav'nly light,

Since you're fav'd from endless night,
· And since we are rais'd to you,
Let uş Atill the fong pursue.

Deity and Humanity of Chrif.
ER
RE the blue heav'ns were tretch'd abroad,

From everlasting was the word : With God he was; the word wặs God,

And mult divitely be ador'd.
2. By his own pow'r were all things made,

By him fupported all things fand;
He is the whole creation's head,

And angets fly at his command. 3

Ere sin was born, or Satan fell,
He led the holt of morning stars ;
Thy generation who can tell,

Or count the number of thy years?
4 But lo, he leaves those heav'nly forms,

The Word descends and dwells in clay,
That he may hold converfë with worms,
Dressd in such feeble felh as they
$ Mortals with joy behold his face,

Th'eternal Father's only Son ;
How {ùll of truth! how fuil of grace !
When thro’his eyes the Godhead shore !

Archangels leave their high abode,
To learn new myst'ries here ; and tell
The love of our descending God,
The glories of Immanuel.
HYMN CXXIII. C. M. [DODDRIDGE.)

Door. ; AWAKE, our fous, and bless his name:

Who opens wide a door of hope

In Achor's gloomy 'vale:
2 Behold the portal wide display?d,

The building Atrong and fair ;
Within are pastures fresh and green,

And living streams are there."
3 Enter, my foul, with cheerful halte,

For Jesus is the door ;
Nor fear the serpent's 'wily arts,

Nor fear the lion's roar.
4 O may thy grace the nations lead,

And Jews and Gentiles 'come,
All trav’lling thro' one beauteous gate
To one éternal home.

Whose work of love in thee begun,

As witnessd by thy blood:

With shouts their folemn joy:
