VICTORY." 10s. 91 Joyfully, joyfully onward I move, Bound for the land of bright spirits above; Soon, with my pilgrimage ended below, Pilgrim and stranger no more shall I roam, Joyfully, joyfully resting [at home. 129 Triumphing over death. 2 Friends, fondly cherished, have passed on before; Sounds of sweet melody fall on my ear; Rings with the harmony heaven's high dome,- 3 Death, with thy weapons of war, lay me low; Bright will the morn of eternity dawn, By permission of Prof. WILLIAM HUNTER. Soon on that bright and heavenly plain We 'll all be gathered home; [There we shall meet our friends again, When we are gathered home. We'll wait till Jesus [comes, We'll wait till Jesus comes, We'll wait till Jesus comes, Then we'll be gathered 130 Glad anticipation. 2 0! what a cheering thought is this, We soon shall dwell in endless bliss, We'll wait till Jesus comes, etc. 3 Our kindred dear have gone before, I hear them on the distant shore, We'll wait till Jesus comes, etc. 4 When in those heavenly courts above, We'll sing the Saviour's dying love, We'll wait till Jesus comes, etc. 5 Then speed your flight, ye passing years, 'Till God shall wipe these falling tears, Then we'll be gathered home. We'll wait till Jesus comes, etc. [home. LOVING-KINDNESS. L.

Jesus all the day long Was my joy and my song: O that all his salvation might see: To redeem even rebels like me. O the rapturous hight Of that holy delight Which I felt in the life-giving blood; Of my Saviour possessed, I was perfectly blest, As if filled with the fullness of God. COMMUCK. P. M. 95 ascend, My companion and friend, To a faith we are come To our permanent home: By 1 Come let us 2 By taste of the banquet above: If thy heart be as mine, hope we the rapture improve; By love we still rise If for Jesus it pine, Come up into the chariot of love. And look down on the skies, For the heaven of heavens is love. 133 Rapturous anticipation. Who on earth can conceive How happy we live, In the palace of God the great king: What a concert of praise, When our Jesus's grace The whole heavenly company sing! What a rapturous song, In the spirit of harmony join! Join all the glad choirs, Hearts, voices, and lyres, And the burden is,-Mercy divine! Halleluiah, they cry, To the King of the sky, To the great everlasting I AM; |
