Our Father, in heaven, we lift up to Thee Our voice of thanksgiving, our glad jubilee; 3. And if, ere this glad year has drawn to a close, Some lov'd one among us in death shall repose, We'll join our glad voices in one song of praise, To God, who has kept us, and lengthen'd our days.

THE LORD OUR GUIDE. 1 Gently, Lord, oh, gently lead us Through this lonely vale of tears; Through the changes thou'st decreed us, Till our last great change appears. When temptation's darts assail us, When in devious paths we stray, Let Thy goodness never fail us, Lead us in Thy perfect way. 2 In the hour of pain and anguish, In the hour when death draws near, Thomas Hastings, Mus.
