2 Jesus, when this light we see, 265. C. M. Psalm c. Watts. Praise to the Creator. BEFORE Jehovah's awful throne, 2 His sovereign power, without our aid, And when, like wandering sheep, we stray'd, He brought us to his fold again. 3 We'll crowd thy gates with thankful songs, Firm, as a rock, thy truth must stand, T 266.

And turn each cursed idol out 2 Do not I love thee from my scul?

Doth not each pulse with pleasure bound My Saviour's voice to hear? 4 Hast thou a lamb in all thy flock, I would disdain to feed? Hast thou a foe, before whose face 5 Thou knowest I love thee, dearest Lord, But, O! I long to soar Far from the sphere of mortal joys, 268. 6. 6. 6. 6. 8, 8. Toplady. The Jubilee. Lev. xxv. 9-17.

Desiring spiritual food. HUNGRY, and faint, and poor, Behold us, Lord, again, Assembled at thy mercy's door, 2 Thy word invites us nigh, O hear the prayer of faith, and grant 272. L. M. Maclay's Selection. THE HE food on which thy children live, 2 How vast, how sweet, how full, how free, 3 For this we wait upon thee, Lord, 273. C. M. Newton. A Blessing requested.
