JOSEPH BARNBY

(J=100) Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old Was strong to heal and save;

4 #4

It tri-umphed o'er dis - ease and death, O'er darkness and the grave.

[ocr errors]

To Thee they went, the blind, the dumb, The pal- sied and the lame,

The leper with his taint-ed life, The sick with fe- vered frame. Amen.

2 And lo! Thy touch brought life and 3 Be Thou our great Deliverer still, health,

Gave speech, and strength, and sight; And youth renewed and frenzy calmed

Owned Thee, the Lord of light.

And now, O Lord, be near to bless,

Almighty as of yore,

In crowded street, by restless couch,
As by Gennesereth's shore.

Thou Lord of life and death, Restore and quicken, soothe and bless With Thine almighty breath.

To hands that work and eyes that see, Give wisdom's heavenly lore,

That whole and sick, and weak and strong

May praise Thee evermore. Amen.

2 Hast Thou not bid us love Thee, God and King,
All, all Thine own, soul, heart and strength and mind?
I see Thy Cross, there teach my heart to cling:
Oh, let me seek Thee, and oh, let me find.

3 Teach me to feel that Thou art always nigh;
Teach me the struggles of the soul to bear,
To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh;

Teach me the patience of unanswered prayer;

4 Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love,
One holy passion filling all my frame,
The baptism of the heaven-descended Dove,
My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame. Amen.

2 Divine Renewer! Thee I bless;
I greet Thy going forth:

I love Thee in the loveliness
Of Thy renewed earth.

3 But oh, these wonders of Thy grace,
These nobler works of Thine,
These marvels sweeter far to trace,
These new-births more divine!

4 These sinful souls Thou hallowest,

5 This new-born glow of faith so strong,
This bloom of love so fair;
This new-born ecstasy of song
And fragrancy of prayer!

6 Creator Spirit, work in me
These wonders sweet of Thine:
Divine Renewer, graciously

Renew this heart of mine!

7 Still let new life and strength upspring,
Still let new joy be given:

These hearts Thou makest new,
These mourning souls by Thee made blest, And grant the glad new song to ring

These faithless hearts made true:

Thro' the new earth and heaven. Amen.
