Shall We Cather? 8s & 7s. From Happy Voices, by permission of Amer. Tract Society.

Rev. R. Lowry.

1. Shall we gather at the riv-er Where bright angel feet have trod,

With its crystal tide for-ev - er Flowing by the throne of God?

Chorus.

Yes, we'll gather at the river, The beautiful, the beauti-ful riv-er;

Gather with the saints at the riv-er That flows by the throne of God.

2 On the margin of the river,

Washing up its silver spray, We will walk and worship ever, All the happy, golden day. 3 Ere we reach the shining river, Lay we ev'ry burden down; Grace our spirits will deliver, And provide a robe and crown. 259.

4 At the smiling of the river,
Mirror of the Saviour's face,
Saints whom death will never sever
Lift their songs of saving grace.
5 Soon we'll reach the silver river,
Soon our pilgrimage will cease
Soon our happy hearts will quiver
With the melody of peace.

Naomi. C. M.

S Father, whate'er of earthly bliss Thy sov'reign will denies,
Accepted at thy throne of grace Let

2 Give me a calm, a thankful heart,
From every murmur free;
The blessings of thy grace impart,
And make me live to thee.

this petition rise.

3 Oh, let the hope that thou art mine My life and death attend

Thy presence thro' my journey shine. And crown my journey's end.

Shall We Meet ?

D. S.

Chorus.

Shall we meet? Shall we meet? Shall we meet? Shall we meet?

[blocks in formation]

And creation swells the chorus

With its sweet melodious sound? 5 Shall we meet with many a loved one That was torn from our embrace? Shall we listen to their voices

And behold them face to face?

6 Shall we meet with Christ our Saviour When he comes to claim his own? Shall we know his blessed favor,

And sit down upon his throne?

In rapturous strains to praise his name,
The crown of life we there shall wear,
The conqueror's palms our hands shall bear
And all the joys of heaven we'll share.
3 The way to heaven is straight and plain,
Repent, believe, be born again,
The Saviour cries aloud to thee,
Take up thy cross and follow me,
And thou shalt my salvation see.
4 Oh, could I hear some sinner say
I'll start this moment, clear the way!
My old companions, fare you well,
I will not go with you to hell!
I mean with Jesus Christ to dwell.

Preparing for Public Worship.

1 Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear
My voice ascending high:
To thee will I direct my prayer-
To thee lift up mine eye:-

2 Up to the hills where Christ is gone
To plead for all his saints,
Presenting, at the Father's throne,
Our songs and our complaints.

( 595.)

3 Thou art a God before whose sight
The wicked shall not stand;
Sinners shall ne'er be thy delight,
Nor dwell at thy right hand.
4 O may thy Spirit guide my feet
In ways of righteousness;
Make every path of duty straight
And plain before my face.

Promised Land. C. M.

(492.)

1. O joy-ful sound of gospel grace, Christ shall in me ap-pear;

Fine.

even I, shall see his face- I shall be ho-ly here.

D. S. Oh! who will come and go with me? I'm bound for the promis'd land. Chorus.

D. S.

I am bound for the promis'd land, I am bound for the promis'd land,

5

A constant paradise.

2 The glorious crown of righteousness | Unless thou plantest in my heart
To me reach'd out I view :
Conq'ror thro' him, I soon shall seize
And wear it as my due.
3 The promised land, from Pisgah's top
I now exult to see:

My hope is full-O, glorious hope!-6
Of immortality.

4 With me, I know, I feel thou art,
But this cannot suffice,

265.

My earth thou wat 'rest from on high,
But make it all a pool;
Spring up, O Well, I ever cry;
Spring up within my soul.
Come, O my God, thyself reveal;
Fill all this mighty void :
Thou only canst my spirit fill:
Come, O my God, my God.

1 Thou Son of God, whose flaming eyes | Stranger to the blood which bought

Our inmost thoughts perceive,

Accept the grateful sacrifice

Which now to thee we give.

2 We bow before thy gracious throne,
And think ourselves sincere;

But show us, Lord, is every one
Thy real worshipper?

His pardon on the tree?

4 Convince him now of unbelief;
His desp'rate state explain,
And fill his heart with sacred grief
And penitential pain.

5 Speak with that voice that wakes the dead,
And bid the sleeper rise,

3 Is here a soul that knows thee not, And bid his guilty conscience dread Nor feels his need of thee

266.

The death that never dies.

[blocks in formation]

To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Who sweetly all agree

(1131.)

To save world of sinners lost,
Eternal glory be.
