INDEX OF FIRST LINES.

ABSURD and vain attempt to bind,
Affliction is a stormy deep,
Again our weekly labours end,
the Lord of life and light,
Ah! why should this mistaken mind,
wretched souls, who strive in vain,
All earthly charms however dear,
nature dies and lives again,
feels attractive pow'r,
All-pow'rful, self-existent God,
All-seeing God! tis thine to know,
Almighty Father, gracious Lord!

of mankind,

goodness, pow'r divine,
maker, God!

Lord of all!

refuge of my soul!

Amazing, beauteous change!
Amidst a world of hopes and fears,
the heav'nly pow'rs sublime,
Among the princes, earthly gods,
And art thou with us, gracious Lord,
can my heart aspire so high,
is the gospel peace and love?
will the great eternal God,
th' eternal King,
the Majesty of heav'n,

Angel, roll the rock away;
Are not thy mercies sov'reign still,
Arise, ye people, clap the hand,
Assist us, Lord, thy name to praise,
Attend my soul the voice divine,
with rev'rent awe,
Author of good! we rest on thee;
Awake, my drowsy soul, awake,

soul, awake my tongue!

lift up thine eyes,
rouse ev'ry pow'r,
stretch ev'ry nerve,

our souls, away our fears, ye saints! to praise your King, A wounded conscience, what a foe!

Be ev'ry vale exalted high,

thou exalted, O my God! Before Jehovah's awful throne, Begin, my soul, th' exalted lay,

the lofty strain,

Behold, he comes! your leader comes, th' amazing sight,

that wise, that perfect law,

the gloomy vale,

grace appears,
lofty sky,

morning sun,

path that mortals tread,
prince of peace,

where, breathing love divine,

where in a mortal form,

Beset with snares on ev'ry hand,

Beyond the bounds of time and space,

Beyond the limits of the sky,

Bless'd are the souls that hear and know, be the everlasting God,

is the man whose heart is kind, nation where the Lord, Bless, O my soul, the living God, Blow ye the trumpet, blow Bright Source of intellectual rays,

Can creatures to perfection find,
Celestial worlds, your Maker's name,
Children, in years and knowledge young,
Christ the Lord is ris'n to day,

Christians! awake, and raise your eyes,
dismiss your fear,
all

Come hither,

ye weary souls!

let us search our ways and try, pay the worship God requires, said Jesus' sacred voice, sound his praise abroad, to the house of pray'r, ye who love the Lord, Consider all my sorrows, Lord, Courage, my soul! while God is near,

Daughters of pity, tune the lay;
Diseases are thy servants, Lord,

Enough of life's vain scene I've trod,
Eternal and immortal King,

God, almighty Cause,

how frail is man,
