See saints and angels joined in one, And march in splendour to the throne. 8 They stand in wonder and look on, They join in one eternal song, HYMN 114. L. M. 1 I'VE 'listed in the holy war, Sing glory, glory, hallelujah. Content to suffer soldiers' fare; Sing glory. &c. The banner over me is love, Sing glory, &c. I draw my rations from above. Sing glory, &c. 2 I've fought through many a battle sore, And I must fight through many more; And boldly march into the field. 3 I've 'listed, and I mean to fight, Till all my foes are put to flight; I'll give the praise to God alone. Come, face the foe, and never flee; Come, take the field and wear the crown. 5 With 'listing orders I am come Coine rich, come poor, come old and young; And glorious crowns laid up in heaven. 6 Our General he is gone before, And you inay draw on grace's store: 'Tis awful You'll sink into eternal night. 'Tis awful. HYMN 115. P. M. 'O'Where I might hide from sorrow; Where I might see my Saviour's face, And there be freed from terror. I'd leave this world and Satan, Where Jesus stands inviting. Because I'm faint and feeble; My soul is fill'd with trouble And I repent my folly; And still my Jesus follow. While through this world I travel; Which makes my foes to marvel. I feel I'm bound for heaven; I therefore still will praise him. I want to die while shouting; When soul and body's parting. And waiting to receive me; Where Christ is gone before me. THE CHRISTIAN MARINER. 1T HYMN 116. P. M. The way to glory is; On these tempestuous seas; 2 Sometimes temptations blow A dreadful hurricane, And o'er my sides break in; My anchor, hope, can cast It holds my vessel fast; Safely she then at anchor rides, 'Midst stormy blasts and swelling tides. 4 If a dead calm ensues, And heav'n no breeezes give, I tug, and toil, and strive: Springs up and fills my sail, Before the pleasant gale: The sun doth not appear, Behold the moon or star; My quadrant FAITH, I take, If he the clouds should break; By it the seas I know; It rocks and sands doth show: 9 I keep aloof from pride, These rocks I pass with care; The whirlwind of despair; Or near some coast am drove, And thus my safety prove. In spite of all my care, Himself vouchsafes to steer; I must a gulph pass through, For all this passage go. (Though rough, it is but short,) The pilot angels meet And bring me into port; HYMN 117. P. M 1 J Ellaunch into the deep: Where sin lulls all asleep; My compass is thy word; My soul each storm defies, While I have such a Lord; I'll trust thy faithfulness and power, Through all my passage lie; And guard me with his eye; And storms forbear to toss; still nigh, The port of endless rest; And fly to Jesus' breast: A prosperous gale of grace: To heaven my destin'd place: HYMN 118. P. M. 1 THE THE people called Christians, how many things they tell, About the land of Canaan, where saints and angels dwell; But sin, that dreadful ocean, compasses them around, While its tide still divides them from Canaan's happy ground. 2 Thousands have been impatient to find their passage through, And with united vigour have tried what they could do ; |
