206 2 We ask not, Lord, thy cloven flame, 3 We mourn not that prophetic skill 4 We neither have nor seek the power But thou, in dark temptation's hour, 5 No heavenly harpings soothe our ear, C. M. All Saints Day. C. WESLEY. 1 THE saints on earth and those above Joined to their Lord in bonds of love, 2 One family, we dwell in him : One church above, beneath; Though now divided by the stream, The narrow stream, of death. 207 3 One army of the living God, To his command we bow; Part of the host have crossed the flood, 4 O God, be thou our constant guide! Bid death's cold flood its waves divide, C. M. All Saints Day. 1 Nor to the terrors of the Lord, 2 But we are come to Sion's hill, Where milder words declare his will, 3 Behold the innumerable host Behold the spirits of the just, 4 In such society as this My weary soul would rest; The man that dwells where Jesus is Must be forever blest. WATTS. 208 8, 8, 8 & 6s M. DAWSON'S HYMNS. All Saints. 1 THE saints of God are holy men, 2 They are not all together now; For some are dead and gone before, 3 Great numbers are they, of all states, 4 But they are all made one in Christ; 5 And there shall come a glorious day, When all the good saints, every one, 170 209 210 2 The saints who die and leave us now, Women and men, and children young, 3 Who have the same eternal hope, All Saints Bay. 1 FOR all thy saints, O God, Who strove in Christ to live, Our grateful hymn receive. 2 For all thy saints, O God, Accept our thankful cry, Who counted Christ their great reward, And strove in him to die. 3 They all, in life and death, With him, their Lord, in view, Learned from thy Holy Spirit's breath 4 For this thy name we bless, And live and die in thee. 211 C. M. BREVIARY 10 SINNER, bring not tears alone, 2 To smite the breast, the clothes to rend, Thy secret soul he bids thee bend 3 0, let us, then, with heartfelt grief, And pray to him to grant relief, 4 O righteous judge, if thou wilt deign We pray for time to turn again, |
