In Jerusalem above

In the deep wilderness unseen she prayed

Is thy cruse of comfort wasting

It came upon the midnight clear

It happened on a solemn eventide
It is not that my lot is low

It is written on the rose

It matters not at what hour of the day
It was a pleasant morning in the time

JUDGE not! the working of his brain

Lord, if he sleep he shall do well!

Lord, what a change within us one short hour

Lost lost! lost! .

Love thou the truth

MAN in his weakness needs a stronger stay
Master, say on! Thy words are sweet
May the Lord of Glory bless thee
Morn is the time to act ;-noon to endure
My rest is in heaven, my rest is not here

NATURE, SO far as in her lies

Near thee, still near thee! o'er thy pathway
gliding

Night sinks on the wave

No bird-song floated down the hill

No strength to wield the armour.

Not now, my child; a little more rough tossing.
No wounds like those a wounded spirit feels

O How many hours of beauty

O Lamb of God, that tak'st away.

O life! O death! O world! O time!

O Lord my God, do Thou Thy holy will

O that those lips had language! Life has passed
O Thou! who never tak'st from Thy beloved

Oft 'mid this world's ceaseless strife

Oh! beautiful and tender little dove

Oh! for "a desert place," with only the Master's { Frances Ridley

smile.

Oh! how the future will reveal

Oh in this world lies much of sadness.

Oh let thy words be calm and kind

Oh never say a careless word

Oh! talk to me of heaven! I love

Oh to be nothing-nothing

Oh to be over yonder

Oh well for him whose will is strong

Oh where exists the spirit world

One by one the sands are flowing

One sweetly solemn thought

One touch from Thee, the Healer of diseases

Only trust me. Do the shadows

Our blest Redeemer, ere He breathed.

PILGRIM of earth, who art journeying to heaven
Poor fainting spirit, still hold on thy way
Pour forth the oil, pour boldly forth

REST for the little sleeper!

Rise, for the day is passing.

Rock of Ages! cleft for me

SAFE in the arms of Jesus

Saviour, I come to Thee

Saviour, when in life's dark wild.

Saviour, whose crowned humanity

Silent and lone beneath the cypress bough.

Some murmur when their sky is clear
Some there are scarcely seen

Sow ye beside all waters

Speak gently! it is better far

Strength is promised; strength is given

Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer
Swinging from its great arms, the trumpet-flower

TAKE my life, and let it be

Take them, O Death, and bear away
"Talitha Cumi!" the mother said
Teach me to live; 'tis easier far to die
Tell me not in mournful numbers
The breaking waves dashed high
The cloud is resting bright and still
The day is drawing to a close
The eye of Jesus watching

The Father knows thee! Learn of Him

The gems of earth are still within
The Lord between us ever watch

The Master is come, and calls for thee
The night is come; but not too soon

The pall was settled. He who slept beneath
The precious nard, the glorious hair
The simple story of a bird

Though earth has full many a beautiful spot

"WATCHER, who wakest by the bed of pain

202

Weared and worn with earthly cares.
We cannot see the twinings.
What may be my future lot.

What means this eager, anxious throng
When Lazarus left his charnel-cave
When marshalled on the nightly plain

When prayer del ghts thee least, then learn to
say.

When press the many cares of life
When the dying flame of day.
When the heart is crushed with care
When the hours of day are numbered
When we reach a quiet dwelling
When we seek with loving heart

When wearied with the cares of life

Which are the spots on earth most truly dear
Who for the like of me will care.
Who that a watcher doth remain
Why should we faint and fear to live alone
Why thus longing, thus for ever sighing?
Work, for the night is coming

YES, pray for whom thou lovest.
