26. For the Lord's-Day Morning. THIS is the day when Christ arose So early from the dead: Why should I keep my eyelids clos'd, This is the day when Jesus broke I'll leave my sport to read and pray, 27. For the Lord's-Day Evening. LORD, how delightful 'tis to see A whole assembly worship thee! At once they sing, at once they pray ; They hear of heav'n, and learn the way. I have been there, and still would go, With thoughts of Christ and things divine, Fill up this foolish heart of mine; That, hoping pardon thro' his blood, I may lie down and wake with God. 28. An Evening Song. AND now another day is gone I'll sing my Maker's praise; But how my childhood runs to waste! And strength for days to come. I lay my body down to sleep; With cheerful heart I close mine eyes, The Ten Commandments. 1 THOU shalt not have more Gods than me. 2 Before no idol bow thy knee. 3 Take not the name of God in vain : 4 Nor dare the Sabbath-day profane. 5 Give both thy parents honour due. 6 Take heed that thou no murder do. 7 Abstain from words and deeds unclean: 8 Norsteal, tho'thou art poor and mean. 9 Nor make a wilful lie, nor love it. 10 What is thy neighbour's dare not covet. The Sum of the Commandments. WITH all thy soul love God above, And as thyself thy neighbour love. BE Our Saviour's Golden Rube. Matt. vii. 12. Be you to others kind and true, Duty to God and our Neighbour. LOVE God with all your soul and strength, With all your heart and mind; And love your neighbour as yourself; Be faithful, just, and kind. Deal with another as you'd have What you 're unwilling to receive The Hosanna, or Salvation ascribed to Christ. Long Metre. HOSANNA to King David's Son, |
