2. Will ye play, then, will ye dally,
With your music and your wine?
Up! it is Jehovah's rally!

God's own arm hath need of thine.
Hark! the onset! will ye fold your
Faith-clad arms in lazy lock?
Up, O up, thou drowsy soldier;

Worlds are charging to the shock.

3. Worlds are charging-heaven beholding;
Thou hast but an hour to fight;
Now the blazoned cross unfolding,
On-right onward, for the right.
On! let all the soul within you

For the truth's sake go abroad!
Strike! let every nerve and sinew
Tell on ages-tell for God!

A. C. COXE.

1. GLORIOUS things of thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God; '

He, whose word can not be broken,
Formed thee for His own abode;

On the Rock of Ages foundedWhat can shake thy sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded, Thou may'st smile on all thy foes.

2. See, the streams of living waters,
Springing from eternal love,
Well supply thy sons and daughters,
And all fear of want remove,
Who can faint while such a river

Ever flows thy thirst t' assuage?
Grace, which, like the Lord, the giver,
Never fails from age to age.

3. Round each habitation hovering, See the cloud and fire appear! For a glory and a covering,

Showing that the Lord is nearHe who gives them daily manna, He who listens when they cryLet him hear the loud hosanna Rising to His throne on high.

NEWTON.

1. ONWARD, onward, men of heaven! Bear the Gospel's banner high; Rest not till its light is given,

Star of every pagan sky.
Send it where the pilgrim-stranger
Faints 'neath Asia's scorching ray;
Bid the red browed forest ranger
Hail it, ere he fades away.

2. Where the Arctic ocean thunders,
Where the tropics fiercely glow,
Broadly spread its page of wonders,
Brightly bid its radiance flow.
India marks its luster stealing,
Shiv'ring Greenland loves its rays,
Afric, 'mid her deserts kneeling,

Lifts the untaught strain of praise. 3. Rude in speech, or grim in feature, Dark in spirit tho' they be, Show that light to every creature, Prince or vassal-bond or free. Lo! they haste to every nation, Host on host the ranks supply, Onward-Christ is your salvation, And your death is victory.

SIGOURNEY.

3. Lord of earth! its mournful story Hasten, in Thy grace, to close; Bring the days of brighter glory, Calm its tumults, heal its woes; All, around the cross uniting,

Blend in one harmonious throng; Peace, the rolls of time inditing, Love, the universal song.

Mourning

1. CHEEK grow pale, but heart be vigorous; Body fall, but soul have peace; Welcome, pain! thou searcher rigorous, Slay me, but my faith increase.

2. Sin, o'er sense so softly stealing;

Doubt, that would my strength impair;
Hence at once from life and feeling-
Now my cross I gladly bear.

3. Up, my soul! with clear sedateness
Read heaven's law, writ bright and
Up! a sacrifice to greatness, [broad,
Truth, and goodness-up to God!

4. Up to labor! from thee shaking

Off the bonds of sloth, be brave!
Give thyself to prayer and waking;
Toil some fainting heart to save!
