2. Though the billows rise, they shall never overwhelm, Though the breakers roar upon the lee;

'Mid the strife we'll sing, for we 've Jesus at the helm, And he'll steer the good ship Zion o'er the sea.-Cно.

3. Tho' for ages past she has ploughed the stormy main, She's the stout ship Zion as of yore;

Safe 'mid rocks and shoals and the fearful hurricane, She has thousands brought to Canaan's happy shore.

2. Happy are all good children here, They are bound for the land of Ca

naan;

And soon they'll be as angels are,

They are bound for the land, etc.

We are bound for the land of Ca

naan

When we are far beyond the skies; We are bound for the land, etc.

2. Angels, sing again with man,

Swell our strain of glory;
Shout with us the wondrous plan,
Love's redeeming story;
Soon our stay on earth shall fail,
Soon shall drop the mortal veil;
Then in strains like yours we'll hail,
Glory, glory, glory!

3. Christ our Lord the theme, the song,
Then no more the stranger
Welcomed by the shining throng
In lone Bethl'em's manger:
Robed in peerless majesty,

Soon our eyes shall also see;
Then we'll cry, ""Tis he, 't is he!
Glory, glory, glory!"

55. Millennial Dawn. 1. WATCHMAN, tell us of the night, What its signs of promise are. Traveller, o'er yon mountain's height See that glory-beaming star. Watchman, does its beauteous ray Aught of hope or joy foretell? Traveller, yes, it brings the day, Promised day of Israel.

2. Watchman, tell us of the night, Higher yet that star ascends. Traveller, blessedness and light, Peace and truth, its course portends.

Watchman, will its beams alone

Gild the spot that gave them birth? Traveller, ages are its own;

See, it bursts o'er all the earth.

3. Watchman, tell us of the night,

For the morning seems to dawn. Traveller, darkness takes its flight, Doubt and terror are withdrawn.

2. Other refuge have I none; Hangs my helpless soul on thee; Leave, ah, leave me not alone,

Still support and comfort me: All my trust on thee is stayed,

All my help from thee I bring; Cover my defenceless head

With the shadow of thy wing.

3. Thou, O Christ, art all I want;
More than all in thee I find:
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
Heal the sick, and lead the blind.
Just and holy is thy name,

I am all unrighteousness;
Vile and full of sin I am,

Thou art full of truth and grace.

57. Value of the Bible.

1. HOLY Bible, book divine,
Precious treasure, thou art mine!
Mine to tell me whence I came,
Mine to teach me what I am;
Mine to chide me when I rove,
Mine to show a Saviour's love;
Mine thou art to guide my feet;
Mine to judge, condemn, acquit;
2. Mine to comfort in distress,
If the Holy Spirit bless;
Mine to show, by living faith,
Man can triumph over death;
Mine to tell of joys to come,
And the rebel sinner's doom:
Oh thou precious book divine,
Precious treasure, thou art mine!

58. Pilgrim's Song.

1. CHILDREN of the heavenly King,
As ye journey, sweetly sing:
Sing your Saviour's worthy praise,
Glorious in his works and ways.
Ye are travelling home to God
In the way the fathers trod:
They are happy now, and ye
Soon their happiness shall see.

2. Shout, ye little flock and blest; You on Jesus' throne shall rest:

There your seat is now preparedThere your kingdom and reward.

59. Songs of Praise.

1. SONGS of praise the angels sang,
Heaven with hallelujahs rang,
When Jehovah's work begun,
When he spake and it was done.
Songs of praise awoke the morn
When the Prince of peace was born;
Songs of praise arose when he
Captive led captivity.

2. Heaven and earth must pass away;
Songs of praise shall crown that day:
God will make new heavens and earth,
Songs of praise shall hail their birth.
And shall man alone be dumb
Till that glorious kingdom come?
No, the church delights to raise
Psalms and hymns and songs of praise.

3. Saints below, with heart and voice,
Still in songs of praise rejoice;
Learning here, by faith and love,
Songs of praise to sing above.
Borne upon their latest breath,
Songs of praise shall conquer death;
Then, amid eternal joy,

Songs of praise their powers employ.
