Page 285 - SWEET hour of prayer ! sweet hour of prayer !

O receive whom God appointed For your Prophet, Priest, and King...
Page 13 - Give to the winds thy fears ; Hope, and be undismayed; God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears, God shall lift up thy head. Through waves and clouds and storms He gently clears thy way; Wait thou His time, so shall this night Soon end in joyous day.
Page 8 - Lord, it belongs not to my care Whether I die or live; To love and serve Thee is my share, And this Thy grace must give.
Page 280 - COME, Thou almighty King, Help us Thy name to sing, Help us to praise ; Father all glorious, O'er all victorious, Come and reign over us, Ancient of days.
