FROM VARIOUS AUTHORS.

HYMN 1. L. M. Old Hundred. [*]
Being of God. Ps. civ.

e 1

TH

HERE is a God-all nature speaks, Through earth, and air, and sea, and skies; • See, from the clouds his glory breaks, When the first beams of morning rise! -2 The rising sun, serenely bright, O'er the wide world's extended frame, Inscribes, in characters of light, His mighty Maker's glorious name. o 3 The flowery tribes all blooming rise, Above the weak attempts of art; e The smallest worms, the meanest flies, Speak sweet conviction to the heart.

-4 Ye curious minds, who roam abroad,
And trace creation's wonders o'er,
e Confess the footsteps of the God;-
a Bow down before him-and adore.

HYMN 2. C. M.

Tunbridge. [b *]

1

For he is good, immensely good,
And kind are all his ways.

Goodness of God. Nahum i. 7.

E humble souls, approach your God,

2 All nature owns his guardian care;
In him we live and move;

• But nobler benefits declare
The wonders of his love.

e 3 He gave his Son, his only Son, To ransom rebel worms;

-"Tis here he makes his goodness known, In its divinest forms.

STEELE.

e 4 To this dear refuge, Lord, we come; 'Tis here our hope relies:

• A safe defence, a peaceful home, When storms of trouble rise.

-5 Thine eye beholds, with kind regard,
The souls who trust in thee;
Their humble hope thou wilt reward,
With bliss divinely free.

o 6 Great God, to thy almighty love
What honours shall we raise?
Not all the raptured songs above
Can render equal praise.

HYMN 3. C. M. Mitcham. Arundel. [*]

God the Creator.

TERNAL Wisdom, thee we praise,

With thy loved name, rocks, hills, and seas,
And heaven's high palace rings.

g 2 Thy hand,-how wide it spread the sky! How glorious to behold!

-Tinged with a blue of heavenly dye,
And starred with sparkling gold.

3 Thy glories blaze all nature round,
And strike the gazing sight,
Through skies, and seas, and solid ground,
With terror and delight.

g 4 Infinite strength, and equal skill,
Shine through the worlds abroad;
e Our souls with vast amazement fill,
And speak the builder-God.
-5 But still the wonders of thy grace
Our softer passions move;
Pity divine in Jesus' face,
We see, adore, and love.

And wait your Maker's

My soul stands trembling while she sings
The honours of her God.

Sovereignty and Dominion of GoD.

3 Chained to his throne a volume lies, With all the fates of men;

WATTS.

e 2 Life, death, and hell, and worlds unknown, Hang on his firm decree;

He sits on no precarious throne,

Nor borrows leave-To Be.

With every angel's form and size,
Drawn by th' eternal pen.

4 His providence unfolds the book,
And makes his counsels shine;
Each opening leaf, and every stroke,
Fulfills some deep design.

5 (Here he exalts neglected worms,
To sceptres and a crown;
And there, the following page he turns,
And treads the monarch down.

6 Not Gabriel asks the reason why,
Nor God the reason gives;
Nor dares the favourite angel pry
Between the folded leaves.)

e 7 My God, I would not long to see
My fate, with curious eyes;
What gloomy lines are writ for me,
Or what bright scenes may rise.
-8 In thy fair book of life and grace,
O may I find my name,
Recorded in some humble place,
Beneath my Lord—the Lamb.

e 3 But oh! by sin how quickly changed!
His honour forfeited;

His heart, from God and truth estranged,
His conscience, filled with dread.

-4 Now from his Maker's voice he flies,
Which was before his joy:
And thinks to hide amidst the trees,
From an all-seeing eye.

5 Compelled to answer to his name,-
With stubbornness and pride,

He cast on God himself the blame,
Nor once for mercy cried.

And all his guilt forgave:
By faith the promised SEED he viewed,
And felt the power to save.

SRAEL in ancient days
Not only had a view
Of Sinai in a blaze,

But learned the gospel too:
The types and figures were a glass,
In which they saw the Saviour's face.
