Страница 168 - ALMIGHTY God, unto whom all hearts are open, all £\. desires known, and from whom no secrets are hid; Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of thy Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love thee, and worthily magnify thy holy Name; through Christ our Lord.
Страница 171 - And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly ; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
Страница 82 - The God that rules on high, That all the earth surveys, That rides upon the stormy sky, And calms the roaring seas ; This awful God is ours, Our Father and our Love ; He will send down his heavenly powers, To carry us above.
Страница 130 - Soldier, go — but not to claim Mouldering spoils of earth-born treasure; Not to build a vaunting name, Not to dwell in tents of pleasure. — Dream not that the way is smooth ; Hope not that the thorns are roses ; Turn no wishful eye of youth, Where the sunny beam reposes; Thou hast sterner work to do, Hosts to cut thy passage through; Close behind thee, gulfs are burning — Forward ! — there is no returning...
Страница 42 - But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
Страница 28 - There is my house and portion fair ; My treasure and my heart are there, And my abiding home ; For me my elder brethren stay, And angels beckon me away, And Jesus bids me come.
Страница 28 - No foot of land do I possess ; No cottage in this wilderness: A poor way-faring man, I lodge awhile in tents below, Or gladly wander to and fro, Till I my Canaan gain.
Страница 329 - AY, thou art for the grave ; thy glances shine Too brightly to shine long ; another Spring Shall deck her for men's eyes, — but not for thine — Sealed in a sleep which knows no wakening. The fields for thee have no medicinal leaf, And the vexed ore no mineral of power ; And they who love thee wait in anxious grief Till the slow plague shall bring the fatal hour.
Страница 22 - COME, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
Страница 90 - The Father hears him pray, His dear anointed One : He cannot turn away The presence of his Son : His Spirit answers to the blood, And tells me I am born of God.
