Page 68 - From all that dwell below the skies, Let the Creator's praise arise ; Let the Redeemer's name be sung, Through every land, by every tongue. 2. Eternal are thy mercies, Lord ; Eternal truth attends thy word : Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore, Till suns shall rise and set no more.

Page 17 - What has drawn us thus apart, From the common daily round, Bringing here a lowly heart, Standing as on holy ground? Not the scorn of humble things, — Simplest tasks that love can find ; Not the pride of thought that brings Laggard will and restless mind. Nay ; but here upon the height, Rapt from idle cares away, Fain our souls would see a light, Herald of the coming day : Morning visions high and pure, Glorious things that are to be, Faith and...
Page 66 - He will judge among the nations, and rebuke many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruninghooks : nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
