By thy passion on the tree,

Let all our griefs and troubles cease: O remember Calvary,

And bid us go in peace!

4 Never will we hence depart
Till thou our wants relieve;
Write forgiveness on our heart,
And all thine image give:
Still our souls shall cry to thee,
Till perfected in holiness:
O remember Calvary,
And bid us go in peace!

COME, Saviour, let thy tokens prove,

Fitted by heavenly art,

As channels to convey thy love.

To every faithful heart.

2 The living bread sent down from heaven In us vouchsafe to be;

Thy flesh for all the world is given,

And all may live by thee.

3 Now, Lord, on us thy flesh bestow,
And let us drink thy blood,
Till all our souls are fill'd below
With all the life of God.

4 Determined nothing else to know
But Jesus crucified,

I will not from my Jesus go,

Or leave his wounded side.

230 Walsal-p. 70.]

C. M.

HAT doleful night before his death,
The Lamb for sinners slain,

Did, almost with his dying breath,

This solemn feast ordain.

2 To keep the feast, Lord, we have met, And to remember thee:

Help each poor trembler to repeat, he died for me !"

For me,

3 This sacred sign, thy suff'rings, Lord, To our remembrance brings:

We eat and drink around thy board,
But think on nobler things.

4 O tune our tongues, and set in frame
Each heart that pants for thee,
To sing "Hosanna to the Lamb,"
The Lamb that died for me!

231 St. Albans-p. 44.]

C. M.

YE wretched, hungry, starving poor,

Behold a royal feast!

Where mercy spreads her bounteous store
For every humble guest.

2 See, Jesus stands with open arms;
He calls, he bids you come :
O stay not back, though fear alarms!
For yet there still is room.

3 O come, and with his children taste
The blessings of his love;

While hope attends the sweet repast
Of nobler joys above!

4 There, with united heart and voice,
Before the eternal throne,

Ten thousand thousand souls rejoice,
In ecstasies unknown.

5 And yet ten thousand thousand more
Are welcome still to come :

Ye happy souls, the grace adore;
Approach, there yet is room.

232

THE

HE King of heaven his table spreads,
And blessings crown the board;

Not paradise, with all its joys,

Could such delight afford.

2 Pardon and peace to dying men,
And endless life are given,
Through the rich blood that Jesus shed,
To raise our souls to heaven.

3 Millions of souls, in glory now,
Were fed and feasted here;
And millions more still on the way,
Around the board appear.

4 All things are ready, come away,
Nor weak excuses frame;
Crowd to your places at the feast,
And bless the Founder's name.

LORY to God on high,
Our peace is made with heaven;
The Son of God came down to die
That we might be forgiven!
2 His precious blood was shed,
His body bruised, for sin :
Remember this in eating bread,
And this in drinking wine.
3 Approach his royal board,
In his rich garments clad;
Join every tongue to praise the Lord,
And every heart be glad.

4 The Father gives the Son;

The Son his flesh and blood:

The Spirit applies, and faith puts on
The righteousness of God.

C. M.

CELESTIAL Dove, descend from high,

And on the water brood:

Come, with thy quick'ning power apply
The water and the blood.

2 I love the Lord that stoops so low
To give his word a seal;

But the rich grace his hands bestow
Exceeds the figure still.

3 Almighty God, for thee we call,
And our request renew;

Accept in Christ, and bless withal,
The work we have to do.

Athol-p. 132.]

Y Saviour's pierced side

By water we are purified,
And pardon'd by his blood.

S. M.

2 Call'd from above, I rise,
And wash away my sin;
The stream to which my spirit flies
Can make the foulest clean.

3 It runs divinely clear,

A fountain deep and wide;

'Twas open'd by the soldier's spear In my Redeemer's side!

Newry-p. 88.] L. M.

COME, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,

Honour the means ordain'd by thee;

Make good our apostolic boast,

And own thy glorious ministry.

2 We now thy promised presence claim;
Sent to disciple all mankind;
Sent to baptize into thy name;

We now thy promised presence find.
3 Father, in these reveal thy Son;
In these, for whom we seek thy face,
The hidden mystery make known,
The inward, pure, baptizing grace.
4 Jesus, with us thou always art;
Effectuate now the sacred sign;
The gift unspeakable impart,

And bless the ordinance divine.
5 Eternal Spirit, descend from high,
Baptizer of our spirits thou!
The sacramental seal apply,

And witness with the water now!

60 that the souls baptized therein
May now thy truth and mercy feel;
May rise and wash away their sin!
Čome, Holy Ghost, their pardon seal!

HEAVENLY King, look down from above;
Assist us to sing thy mercy and love;

So sweetly o'erflowing, so plenteous the store,
Thou still art bestowing, and giving us more.
2 O God of our life, we hallow thy name;
Our business and strife is thee to proclaim:
