Side 128 - I pray thee, let me go over, and see the good land that is beyond Jordan, that goodly mountain, and Lebanon.
Side 130 - Far, far away, like bells at evening pealing, The voice of Jesus sounds o'er land and sea, And laden souls by thousands meekly stealing, Kind Shepherd, turn their weary steps to Thee.
