5 Jesus, be Thou our constant Guide:

Then, when the word is given,
Bid Jordan's narrow stream divide,
And bring us safe to heaven. Amen.

Charles WESLEY, arr. by FRANCIS H. MURRAY

5 Grant us Thy help till backward they are driven;

Grant them Thy truth, that they may be forgiven;
Grant peace on earth, and after we have striven,
Peace in Thy heaven. Amen.

d=104 ) Sav-iour, Who Thy flock art feed- ing. With the shep-herd's kind-est care,

All the fee - ble gen - tly lead-ing, While the lambs Thy bo- som share; A-men.

2 Now, these little ones receiving, Let Thy tenderness, so loving,

Fold them in Thy gracious arm; Keep them through life's dangerous way. There, we know, Thy word believing, 4 Then, within Thy fold eternal, • Only there secure from harm.

Let them find a resting-place; 3 Never, from Thy pasture roving, Feed in pastures ever vernal, Let them be the lion's prey;

Drink the rivers of Thy grace. Amen.

2 To thee, O God, Whose face

Their spirits still behold,
We bring them, praying that Thy grace

May keep, Thine arms enfold.

3 And as this water falls

On each unconscious brow,
Thy Holy Spirit grant, O Lord,
To keep them pure as now. Amen.

James FREEMAN CLARKE

4 When the holy vow is made,
When the hands are on them laid,
Come, in this most solemn hour,
With Thy sevenfold gifts of power,
Come, Thou blessèd Spirit, come
Make each heart Thy happy home. Amen.

(d=96) When Thy sol- diers take their swords, When they speak the sol - emn words,

When they kneel be - fore Thee here,

These Thy children, Lord, de-fend; To their help Thy Spir-it send. A-men.
