Page 145 - Holy Jesus ! every day Keep us in the narrow way ; And, when earthly things are past, Bring our ransomed souls at last Where they need no star to guide, Where no clouds Thy glory hide.
Page 185 - The Lord of Love, on Calvary, A meek and suffering stranger, Upraised to Heaven His languid eye, In nature's hour of danger. For us He bore the weight of woe, For us He gave His blood to flow, And met His Father's anger.
Page 16 - THE CHARIOT! THE CHARIOT! By Dr. HH MILMAN, Dean of St. Panl's ; b. in London, 1791 ; d. 1868. *HE chariot ! the chariot ! its wheels roll on fire, As the Lord cometh down in the pomp of His ire; Self-moving, it drives on its pathway of cloud, And the heavens with the burden of Godhead are bowed.
Page 133 - Redeemer is laid. 2 Cold on his cradle the dew-drops are shining, Low lies his head with the beasts of the stall ; Angels adore him in slumber reclining, Maker and Monarch and Saviour of all.
Page 106 - Come, ye children, blithe and merry ! This one Child your model make ; Christmas holly, leaf, and berry, All be prized for His dear sake : Come, ye gentle hearts and tender ! Come, ye spirits keen and bold ! All in all your homage render, Weak and mighty, young and old.
Page 145 - As they offered gifts most rare At that manger rude and bare; So may we with holy joy, Pure and free from sin's alloy, All our costliest treasures bring, Christ!
Page 17 - All flesh is at once in the sight of the Lord, And the doom of eternity hangs on his word!
Page v - Lyra Messianica ; Hymns and Verses on the Life of Christ, Ancient and Modern ; with other Poems. By the same Editor. Second Edition, enlarged.
Page 133 - Say, shall we yield Him in costly devotion Odours of Edom and offerings divine, Gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine?
Page 145 - As with gladness men of old Did the guiding star behold ; As with joy they hailed its light, Leading onward, beaming bright, — So, most gracious Lord, may we Evermore be led to Thee.
