THE REVIVALIST.
The demand for "The Revivalist" has been so great that the publishei
has deemed it best to revise and enlarge it for this edition. Sixteen thou-
sand have been published in less than one year.
It now contains nearly five hundred choice Hymns and spiritual Songs,
and more than two hundred and thirty soul-stirring Choruses, all set to
appropriate and inspiring music. The Tunes include the choicest
new as
well as old that can be found. Many are original, and written expressly
for this work. THE PUBLISHER

PREFACE.
The title of our book is not simply a name. The adaptation of
this work to the place it seeks has already brought out high enco-
miums to its success in meeting the needs of revival work.
Gems of Sacred Song, both old and new, are here gathered ready
for use. The closet, the fireside, the Sunday School, the prayer,
class or conference meetings, as well as the revival, will find what-
ever may be desired or helpful.
It has been our specialty to give old and familiar harmonies as
originally used, and, guided by years of experience, no pains or
expense has been spared to make the work what it should be.
For valuable contributions furnished, our thanks are due Prof.
Philip Phillips, Rev. J. W. Dadmun, Wm. B. Bradbury, Rev. L.
Hartsough, Dr. Lowell Mason, Rev. A. C. Rose, T. E. Perkins,
S. J. Vail, S. Main, Rev. B. I. Ives, Horace Waters, Asa Hull,

Rev. Hiram Mattison, Rev. Robert Lowry, Rev. J. K. Tinkham,
T. C. O'Kane, Rev. Wm. Hunter, D. D., A. S. Jenks, and others.
Much prayer has been offered that the work may prove to be
what its title claims" The Revivalist." And if the lovers
of Revivals view it in the same prayerful spirit, and find it really
an assistant in winning and saving souls, we shall be amply
rewarded.

2 Days of weeping now are o'er,
Past those scenes of toil and pain;
They will feel distress no more
Never, never weep again.
'Mid the chorus of the skies,
'Mid angelic choirs above;
They now join the songs that rise,
Songs of praise to Jesus love.
3 Often did the unbidden tear,
Stealing down the unfurro'd cheek
Tell with eloquence sincere,
Tales of woe lips could not speak.
Happy now, forever fled,
"Where no grief can entrance find;
Lulled to rest is the aching head,
Soothed the anguish of the mind.
4 All is tranquil, blest, serene,
Undisturbed their calm repose;
Where no cloud can intervene,
Where no angry tempest blows.
Every tear is wiped away,
Highest raptures thrill the breast;
Night is lost in endless day,
Sorrow in eternal rest.

Royal Way of the Cross- 8s & 7s.
From Sacred Harmonium, by permission. Music by Rev. L. Hartsougli.
Fine.
We may spread our couch with roses, And sleep thro' the summer day;
3ut the soul that in sloth reposes Is not in the nar
-
row way.
d. c. For the roy
-
al way to heav-en Is the roy
-
al way of the cross,
m
n. c.
If we fbl-low the chart that is given We need not be at a loss,
2 To one who is reared in splendor
The cross is a heavy load,
And the feet that are soft and tender
Will shrink from the thorny road
;
But the chains of the soul must be riven
And wealth must be as dross,
For the royal way to heaven
Is the royal way of the cross.
3 We say we will walk to-morrow
The path we refuse to-day,
And still with our lukewarm sorrow
We shrink from the narrow way.
What heeded the chosen eleven
How the fortunes of life might toss,
As they follo'd their Master to heaver
By the royal way of the cross ?
30.
As sung by Rev. J. K. Tinkham.
Hallowed Spot.
Fine. Arr.byRcv.L.EL
1 There is a spot to me more dear Than native vale or mountain,
)
A spot for which affection's tear Springs grateful from its fountain. ) 'Tis not where kindred
d. c. But where I first my Saviour found, And felt my sins forgiven
!
2>. C.
2 Hard was my toil to reach the shore.
Long toss'd upon the ocean;
Above me was the thunder's roar,
souls abound, Tho' that is almost heaven
; Beneath, the waves' commotion;
Darkly the pall of night was thrown
Around me, faint with terror;
In that lone hour how did my groans
Ascend for years of error
!
3 Fainting and panting, as for breath,
I knew not help was near me;
I cried, 0 save me, Lord, from death !
Immortal Jesus, save me
!
Then, quick as tho't, I felt him mine
;
My Saviour stood before me :
I s^w his brightness round me shine,
j^nd shouted Glory ! Glory !
4 0 happy hour ! O hallow'd spot
!
Where love divine first found me
;
Wherever falls my distant lot,
My heart shall linger round thee :
And when from earth I rise and soar
Up to my home in heaven,
Down Will I cast my eyes once more
Where I was first forgiven.

2 He ever lives above
For me to intercede;
His all-redeeming love,
His precious blood to plead
;
His blood atoned for all our race
And sprinkles now the throne of
grace.
3 Five bleeding wounds he bears,
Received on Calvary;
They pour effectual prayers,
They strongly speak for me :
Forgive him, O forgive, they cry,
Nor let that ransom'd sinner die
!
4 The Father hears him pray,
His dear annointed One :
He cannot turn away
The presence of his Son
:
His Spirit answers to the blood,
And tells me I am born of God.
5 My God is reconciled,
His pard'ning voice I hear
:
He owns me for his child,
I ican no longer fear
;
With confidence I now draw nigh,
And Father, Abba, Father, cry.
34. Rejoicing in Prospect of the Blessing. 495.
1 Ye ransom'd sinners, hear,
The prisoners of the Lord,
And wait till Christ appear,
According to his word.
Rejoice in hope, rejoice with me;
We shall from all our sins be free.
2 In God we put our trust
;
If we our sins confess,
Faithful is he and just,
From all unrighteousness
To cleanse us all both you and me :
We shall from all our sins be free.
3 Surely in us the hope
Of glory shall appear;
Sinners, your heads lift up
And see redemption near.
Again I say: Rejoice with me;
We shall from all our sins be free.
4 Who Jesus

sufferings share,
My'fellow-pris'ners now,
Te soon the crown shall wear
On your triumphant brow.
Rejoice In hope, rejoice with me;
We shall from all our sins be free
5 The word of God is sure,
And never can remove;
We shall in heart be pure,
And perfected in love.
Rejoice in hope, rejoice with me;
We shall from all our sins be free.

By waves.
and wind I'm tossed and driv'n, Freighted with grace, and bound for heav'n
2 Sometimes temptations blow
A dreadful hurricane

And high the waters flow,
And o'er the sides break in.
But still my little ship outbraves
The blust'ring winds and surging waves
8 The bible is my chart,
By it the seas I know;
I cannot with it part,
It rocks and sands doth show.
It is a chart and compass too,
Whose needle points forever true.
4 When through the voyage I get,
Though rough, it is but short,
The pilot angels meet
To bring me into port;
And when I land on that blest shore
I shall be safe forevermore.

They evermore proclaim,
And wonder at his love

Tis all their happiness to gaze

Tis heaven to see our Jesus' face.
4 His name the sinner hears,
And is from sin set free;
Ti:s music in his ears;
23
'Tis life and victory.
New songs do now his lips employ,
And dances his glad heart for joy.
5 O unexampled love
!
O all-redeeming grace
!
How swiftly didst thou move
To save a fallen race !
What shall I do to make it known,
What thou for all mankind hast done i
6 O for a trumpet voice
On all the world to call
!
To bid their hearts rejoice
In Him who died for all
!
For all my Lord was crucified;
For all, for all my Saviour died.

Your Mission.
By permission of S. Brainard & Co., Publishers, Cleveland, O., owners of copyright.
By S. M. Grannls.
If you cannot on the ocean Sail among the swiftest fleet, Rocking on the highest
billows, Laughing at the storms yon meet, You can stand among the sailors anchor'd
pp
yet within the bay, Yon can lend a hand to help them As they launch their boats away
rail,
2 If you are too weak to journey
Up the mountain, steep and high,
You can stand within the valley,
While the multitudes go by; As they launch their boats away.
You can chant in happy measure
As they slowly pass along,
Though they may forget the singer
They will not forget the song.
3 If you have not gold and silver
Ever ready to command,
If you cannot t'wards the needy
Reach an ever open hand,
You can visit the afflicted,
O'er the erring you can weep,
You can be a true disciple
Sitting at the Saviour's feet.
4 If you cannot in the harvest
Garner up the richest sheaves,
Many a grain both ripe and golden
Will the careless reapers leave
;
. Go and gleari among the briers
Growing rank against the wall,
For it may be that their shadow
Hides the heaviest wheat of all.
5 If you cannot in the conflict
Prove yourself a soldier true,
If where fire and smoke are thickest
There's no work for you to do;
When the battlefield is silent,
You can go with careful tread,
You can bear away the wounded,
You can cover up the dead.
6 Do not, then, stand idly waiting
For some greater work to do;
Fortune is a lazy goddess,
She will never come to you.
Go and toil in any vineyard.
Do not fear to do or dare,
If you want a field of labor,
You can find it anywhere.

1 Over the river, I'm going,
Beyond where the pearly gates stand,
Over the cold icy billows,
To live in a fair sunny land.
My father has built me a mansion,
And filled it with treasures of gold,
Yes, over the river I'm going,
To where there are pleasures untold.
2 Over the river I'm going :
Oh, seek not to draw me aside
;
See, for the boatman is waiting
To ferry me over the tide.
My Saviour is there to receive me,
And shield me from suffering and cold,
Yes, over the river I'm going,
To where there are pleasures untold

I will sprinkle you with wa-ter, I will cleanse you from all sin,

in.
2 Though you have mneh peace and comfort,
Greater things you yet may find
;
Freedom from unholy tempers,
Freedom from the carnal mind.
To procure your perfect freedom,
Jesus sufFer'd, groan'd and died;
On the cross the healing fountain
Gushed from his wounded side.
3 O ye tender babes in Jesus,
Hear your heav'nly Father's will,
Claim your portion, plead his promise,
And he quickly will fulfil.
Pray, and the refining fire
Will come streaming from above,
Now believe and gain the blessing,
Nothing less than perfect love.
4 If you have obtain'd this treasure,
Search and you shall surely find
All the Christian marks and graces
Planted, growing in your mind.
Perfect faith and perfect patience,
Perfect lowliness, and then
Perfect hope and perfect meekness,
Perfect love for God and man.
5 But be sure to gain the witness
Which abides both day and night
;
This your God has plainly promised,
This is like a stream of light.
While you keep the blessed witness
All is clear and calm within;
God himself assures you by it
That you** heart is cleans 'd from sin.

6 Be as holy and as happy,
And as useful here below,
As it is your Father's pleasure,
Jesus, only Jesus know.
Spread, 0 spread the holy fire,
Tell. 0 tell what God has done,
Till the nations are conformed
To the image of his Son.
7 Witnesses might be produced
Of this glorious work of love,
Paul and James, and John and Peter,
Long before they went above.
Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands.
Have, and do, and will appear;
Let me ask the solemn question
:
Has the Lord a witness here ?
8 Wake up, brother, wake up, sister,
Seek, O seek this holy state,
None but holy ones can enter
Thro' the pure celestial gate.
Can you bear the thought of losing
All the joys that are above ?
No, my brother, no, my sister,
God will perfect you in love.
9 May a mighty sound from heaven
Suddenly come rushing down,
Cloven tongues like as of fire,
May they set on all around.
O may every soul be filled
With the Holy Ghost to-day;
It is coming, it is coming,
0 prepare, prepare the way.

With our Saviour we shall meet them
When we too have crossed the tide.

In that bright and glorious city

We have caught such radiant gleams
Of its towers like dazzling sunlight,

But long since have enter'd your rest,

And lean on Immanuel's breast;

Hath buried my guilt and my fears

And while I contemplate its shade,
The light of his presence appears.
3 O ! sweet is the season of rest
When life's weary journey is done;
The blush that spreads over its west,
The last lingering rays of its sun

Though dreary the empire of night,
I soon shall emerge from its gloom,
And see immortality's light
Arise on the shades of the tomb.

God, who created you, cares for you too
;
Treasures the tears that his striving ones shed,
Counts and protects every hair of your head.
5 Dare to be right ! dare to be true !
Cannot Omnipotence carry you through ?
City and mansion and throne all in sight,
Can you not dare to be true and be right?

And to the earth be peace;
Good will henceforth from heaven to men.

Chorus.
For soon the reaping time will come, And angels shout the harvest home.
2 Will it relieve their horrors there,
To recollect their stations here ?
How much they heard, how much they know,
Howlong among the wheat they grew ?
3 Oh, this will aggravate their case
!
They perished under means of grace :
To them the word of life and faith
Became an instrument of death.

1. Je-sus, I my cross have ta-ken, All to leave and fol-low thee;
Naked, poor, despised, forsaken, Thou from hence my all shalt be.
d.s. Yet how rich is my con-di-tion, God and heav'n are still mine own.
2 Let the world despise and leave me
;
They have left my Saviour too;
Human hearts and looks deceive me,
Thou art not like them, untrue;
And while thou shalt smile upon me,
God of wisdom, love, and might,
Foes may hate and friends disown me
;
Show thy face, and all is bright.
8 Go, then, earthly fame and treasure,
Come, disaster, scorn, and pain,
In thy service pain is pleasure,
With thy favor loss is gain.
I have called thee Abba, Father,
I have set my heart on thee
;
Storms may howl, and clouds may gather,
All must work for good to me.
4 Haste thee on from grace to glory,
Armed by faith, and winged by prayer,
Heaven's eternal days before thee,
God's own hand shall guide thee there,
Soon shall close thine earthly mission,
Soon shall pass thy pilgrim days,
Hope shall change to glad fruition,
Faith to sight, and prayer to praise.
5 Man may trouble and distress me,
'T will but drive me to thy breast;
Life with trials hard may press me,
Heaven will bring me sweeter rest.
Oh ! 'tis not in grief to harm me,
"While thy love is left to me
;
Oh ! 'twere not in joy to charm me,
Were that joy unmixed with thee.
[Hymn No, 124 continued.]
2 Keep no longer at a distance,
Shine upon us from on high,
Lest for want of thine assistance
Every plant should droop and die.
8 Let our mutual love be fervent,
Make as prevalent in prayers
;
Let each one esteemed thy servant
Shun the world's bewitching snares.
4 Break the tempter's fatal power,
Turn the stony heart to flesh
;
And begin from this good hour
To revive thy work afresh.

2 From his hands, his feet, his side,
Runs a healing fountain

See the consolation tide,
Boundless as the ocean.
See the living waters move
For the sick and dying;
Now resolve to gain his love,
Or to perish trying.
3 Grace's store is always free,
Drooping souls to gladden
;
Jesus calls : Come unto me.
Weary, heavy laden.
Though your sins like mountains rise,
Rise and reach to heaven;
Soon as you on him rely
All shall be forgiven.
4 Now methinks I hear one say
:
I will go and prove him

If he takes my sins away
Surely I shall love him.
Yes, I see the Father smile,
Smiling moves my burden;
All is grace, for I am vile,
Yet he seals my pardon.
5 Streaming mercy, how it flows,
Now I know; I feel it;
Half has never yet been told,
Yet I want to tell it.
Jesus' blood has healed my wounds
Oh, the wondrous story
!
I was lost, but now am found,
Glory ! glory ! glory !
6 Glory to my Saviour's name,
Saints are bound to love him
;
Mourners, you may do the same,
Only come and prove him.
Hasten to the Saviour's blood,
Feel it and declare it;

All the world might hear it.
7 If no greater joys are known
In the upper region,
I will try to travel on
In this pure religion.
Heaven's here, heaven's there,
Glory's here and yonder
;
Brightest seraphs shout amen,
"While the angels wonder.
2 Christ at times by faith I view,
And it doth relieve me,
But my doubts return anew,
They are those tbat grieve
me.
Troubled, like the restless sea,
Feeble, faint and fearful,
Plagued with every sore disease
How can I be cheerful ?

3 Think on what your Saviour bore
In the gloomy garden,
Sweating blood at every pore
To procure thy pardon.

Bleeding, groaning, dying,

Therefore be believing.

2 Much of my time has run to waste,
And I, perhaps, am near my home,
But he forgives my follies past,
And gives me strength for days to come.
3 I lay my body down to sleep;
Peace is the pillow for my head
;
While well-appointed angels keep
Their watchful stations round my bed.
4 Thus, when the night of death shall come,
My flesh shall rest beneath the ground,
And wait thy voice to rouse my tomb,
With sweet salvation in the sound.
1 Prayer is appointed to convey
The blessings God designs to give;
Long as they live should Christians pray;
They learn to pray when first they live.
2 If pain afflict or wrongs oppress,
If cares distract or fears dismay,
If guilt deject, if sin distress,
In every case still watch and pray.
Design of Prayer.
( 519.)
3 'Tis prayer supports the soul that's weak;
Tho' tho't be broken, language lame,
Pray if thou canst or canst not speak,
But pray with faith in Jesus' name.
4 Depend on him ; thou canst not fail
;
Make all thy wants and wishes known
;
Fear not; his merits must prevail;
Ask but in faith, it shall be done.

Entire Consecration.

1 Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
One in three, and three in one,
As by the celestial host,
Let thy will on earth be done
;
Praise by all to thee be given,
Gracious Lord of earth and heaven
!
2 Vilest of the sinful race,
Lo ! I answer to thy call
:
Meanest vessel of thy grace,
Grace divinely free for all
;
Lo ! I come to do thy will,
All thy counsel to fulfill.
3 If so poor a worm as I
May to thy great glory live,
All my actions sanctify,
All mywords and thoughts receive;
Claim me for thy service, claim
All I have, and all I am.
4 Take my soul and body's powers :
Take my memory, mind, and will
:
All my goods, and all my hours,
All I know, and all I feel
;
All I think, or speak, or do;
Take my heart, but make it new!
5 Now, my God, thine own I am,
Now I give thee back thine own
:
Freedom, friends, and health, and fame,
Consecrate to thee alone
;
Thine I live, thrice happy I
!
Happier still if thine I die.

2 Awed by a mortal's frown, shall I
Conceal the word of God Most High ?
How then before thee shall I dare
To stand, or how thine anger bear ?
3 Shall I, to soothe the unholy throng,
Soften thy truth or smooth mytongue,
To gain earth's gilded toysor flee
The cross endured, my Lord, by thee ?
4 What then is he whose scorn I dread?
Whose wrath or hate makes me afraid?
A man ! an heir of death ! a slave
To sin ! a bubble on the wave !

Thy shadowing wings around myhead
;
Since in all pain thy tender love
Will still my sure refreshment prove.
Fullness and Sufficiency of the Atonement. (in.)
1 Jesus, thy blood and righteousness
My beauty are, my glorious dress;
'Midst naming worlds in these array'd,
With joy shall I lift up my head.
2 Bold shall I stand in thy great day,
For who aught to my charge shall lay?
Fully absolved through these I am,
From sin and fear, from guilt and shame.
3 The holy, meek, unspotted Lamb,
Who from the Father's bosom came,
Who died for me, e'en me t' atone,
.Now for my Lord and God I own.
4 Lord, I believe thy precious blood,
Which, at the mercy seat of God,
Forever doth for sinners plead,
For me, e'en for my soul, was shed.
5 Lord, I believe were sinners more
Than sands upon the ocean shore,
Thou hast for all a ransom paid,
For all a full atonement made.
The Minister's Prayer
1 Saviour of men, thy searching eye
Doth all mine inmost tho'ts descry;
Doth aught on earth my wishes raise,
Or the world's pleasures, or its praise.
2 The love of Christ doth me constrain
To seek the wand'ring souls of men
;
With cries, entreaties, tears, to save,
To snatch them from the gaping grave.
3 For this let men revile my name;
No cross I shun, I fear no shame
;
Christ's Constraining Love.
(653.)
All hail, reproach, and welcome, pain;
Only thy terrors, Lord, restrain.
4 My life, my blood, I here present,
If for thy truth they may be spent
;
Fulfill thy sovereign
counsel, Lord
;
Thy will be done, thy name adored.
5 Give me thy strength, 0 God of power :
Then let winds blow, or thunders roar,
Thy faithful witness will I be :
'Tis fix'd; I can do all through thee.

When I must stand before my judge
And pass the solemn test.
2 Jesus, thou source of all my joys,
Thou ruler of my heart,
How can I bear to hear thy voice
Pronounce the word Depart

Would so torment my ear
'Twould tear my soul asunder, Lord,
With most tormenting fear.
4 What, to be banish'd from my Lord,
And yet forbid to die,
To linger in eternal pain,
And death forever fly ?
1 Eternal Wisdom ' thee we praise,
Thee the creation sings;
With thy lov'd name rocks, hills and seas,

And heaven's high palace, rings.
2 Thy hand, how wide it spreads the sky
How glorious to behold !
Tinged with a blue of heavenly dye,
And starr'd with sparkling gold.
3 Infinite strength and equal skill
Shine through thy works abroad
;
Our souls with vast amazement fill,
And speak the builder God !

1 We're traveling home to heaven above,
Will you go ? Will you go ?

Will you go ? Will you go ?
Millions have reach'd this blest abode,
Anointed kings and priests to God,
And millions now on are the road,
Will you go ? Will you go ?

And creation swells the chorus

With its sweet melodious sound ?
5 Shall we meet with many a loved one
That was torn from our embrace 1
Shall we listen to their voices
And behold them face to face ?
6 Shall we meet with Christ our Saviour
When he comes to claim his own ?
Shall we know his blessed favor,
And sit down upon his throne ?
In rapturous strains to praise his name,
The crown of life we there shall wear,
The conqueror's palms our hands shall bear
And all the joys of heaven we'll share.
3 The way to heaven is straight and plain,
Repent, believe, be born again,
The Saviour cries aloud to thee,
Take up thy cross and follow me,
And thou shalt my salvation see.
4 Oh, could I hear some sinner say
I'll start this moment, clear the way !
My old companions, fare you well.
I will not go with you to hell

I sing of a theme most sublime, No sorrow my song can con-trol;
I sing of the rap-turous time When Je-sus spoke peace to my soul,
2 When guilt my poor heart did assail,
Because I had wandered from God,
[ strove my sad case to bewail,
My sins were a cumberous load
;
3 ! Saviour, have mercy ! I cried
;
Oh, pardon a wretch that's so vile !
Then quickly his blood was applied,
And Jesus spoke peace to my soul.
My guilt, like the cloud of the morn,
Was chased in a moment away;
The joy of my soul, newly born,
Increased like the dawning of day.
Ify Saviour redeemed me from sin,
He saves not in part but in whole,
le writes his salvation within
To die as if by stealth;
It does not quench the beaming eye,
Or pall the glow of health.
4 The conscience maybe still at ease,
The spirit light and gay,
That which is pleasing still mayplease,
And care be thrust away.
5 Oh, what is this mysterious bourne
By which our path is crossed ?
Beyond which God himself hath sworn
That he who goes is lost.
6 How far may we go on in sin ?
How long will God forbear ?
Where does hope end ? and where begin
The confines of despair ?
7 An answer from the skies is sent :
Ye that from God depart,
While it is called to-day, repent,
And harden not your heart.

2 Jesus says, be meek and lowly,
For 'tis light to be a judge;
If I would be pure and holy
I must live without a grudge
:
It requires a constant labor
All his precepts to obey,
If I truly love my neighbor.
Then I'm in the holy way.-
3 If I say unto my neighbor
In thine eye there is a mote,
If thou art a friend or brother
Hold and I will pull it out
:
But I could not get it clearly,
For my sight was very dim
;
When I came to see more clearly.
In my eye there was a beam.
4 If I love my brother dearly,
And his mote I would erase,
Then my sight must shine more clearly,
For the eye's a tender place;
Others I have oft reproved
For a little single mote,
Now I wish the beam removed

2 I saw one hanging on a tree,
In agonies and blood,
Who fix'd his languid eyes on me,
As near his cross I stood.
8 Sure never to my latest breath
Can I forget that look
;

It seem'd to charge me with his death,
Though not a word he spoke.
4 My conscience felt and own'd the guilt,
And plung'd me in despair
;
I saw my sins his blood had spilt,
And help'd to nail him there.
5 Alas ! I knew not what I did,
But now my tears are vain
;
Where shall my trembling soul be hid?
For I the Lord have slain.

:

Of hallow'd thought and ho

d. c. All praise to thee, the Tri-une God, Our joy-ous hearts proclaim.
'Twas God who fired those humble hearts Whence sprung the ris-ing flame
;
2 A hundred years, a hundred years,
What wonders God hath wrought;
The feeble band afar hath spread,
Hosts have their spirit caught.
The continent, too strait indeed,
Their followers sends abroad
To every clime, the wide world round,
All praise to thee, O God
!
3 A hundred years, a hundred years,
Of which our thousands tell,
In songs of praise unto his power,
Who still our ranks shall swell.
These praying bands, thus won to Christ,
Shall pass the record on
To rising millions, who in turn
Shall shout : Still, still they come !
4 A hundred years, a hundred years,
What triumphs have they known,
As hosts have from our altars gone
To their eternal home.
The hand that led our church abroad,
And gave us rank and place,
Has filled these hundred years to us
With victories of grace.
5 A hundred years, a hundred years
Of holy vows and aims,
Of lifting high, in purity,
The Gospel's truths and claims.
'Twas God who marked our pathway plain,
To spread through all the land
The doctrines, deeds of holiness,
By which his saints should stand.

Cho. This world is not my home,
This world is not my home.
This world's a wilderness of woe,
This world is not my home.
2 No tranquil joys on earth I know,
No peaceful, sheltering dome;
This world's a wilderness of woe,
This world is not my home.
3 To Jesus Christ I sought for rest
:
He bade me cease to roam,
And fly for succor to his breast,
And he'd conduct me home.
4 When by afflictions sharply tried,
I viewed the gaping tomb;
Although I dread death's chilling flood,
Yet still I sighed for home.
5 Weary of wandering round and round
This vale of sin and gloom,
I long to leave the unhallowed ground,
And dwell with Christ at home.

For heaven our spirits prepare,
And shortly we also shall know, shall

And feel what it is to be there.

And wash the Ethiop white.

Shall feel, your sins forgiven;
Anticipate your heaven below,
And own that love is heaven.

All hail, all hail. I'm going to join the union band
I
All hail, all hail, I'm
bound for the throne.
2 Great tribulation we shall meet,
But soon we'll walk the golden street.
3 Though hell may rage and vent her
spite,
Yet Christ will save his heart's delight.
4 Sound through the earth and down
to hell,
The powers of darkness can't prevail.
5 Behold the righteous marching home.
And all the angels bid them come.
6 Ye everlasting gates, fly wide,
For Christ awaits his coming bride.
7 Ye harps of heaven, sound aloud,
Here comes the purchase of his blood.
8 There tears are gone, there sorrows flee,
No more afflicted shall we be.

_ Chorus.
7SZ
Roll on, roll on, sweet mo-ments, roll on, And let these poor pilgrims go home, go home.
2 Jesus himself shall guide our way
Till safe we rest in endless day.
8 A feAV more rolling years at most
Will land us safe on Canaan's coast.
4 From sleeping clay and beds of dust
Our Jesus will call home the just.
5 Our ransom'd souls shall soar away
To praise our God in endless day.
6 When landed on the heavenly shore,
Death and the curse shall be no more.
7 And when we Christ in glory meet
Our thrilling hopes will be complete.
8 Then shall we sing the song of grace,
Safe in our glorious dwelling place.

Ere death arrest thee, and the Judge

Swift to perdition.
3 Oft has he called thee, but thou

Mercies and judgments have alike
been slighted;
Yet he is gracious, and, with arms ex-
tended,
Waits to embrace thee.
4 Come, then, poor sinner, come away
this moment [relenting,
Just as you are, but come with heart
Come to the fountain open for the
guilty;
Jesus invites you.
5 But if you trifle with his gracious
message,
Cleave to the world and love its guilty
pleasures,
Mercy, grown weary, shall in righteous
judgment
Leave you forever.
6 Oh! guilty sinner, hear the voice
of warning;
Fly to the Saviour and embrace his
pardon;
So shall your spirits meet, with joy
triumphant,
Death and the judgment.

Thinned by many a toil-spent day;
When around this youthful pine
Moss shall creep and ivy twine

Here may we all meet again.

When its wasted lamps are dead;
When in cold oblivion's shade

My Captain's gone before

He's given me my orders,
And tells me not to fear

And if I hold out faithful,
A crown of life he'll give,
And all his valiant soldiers
Eternal life shall have.
3 Through grace I am determin'd
To conquer though I die,
And then away to Jesus
On wings of love I'll fly
:
Farewell to sin and sorrow,
I bid you all adieu
;
And you, my friends, prove faithful,
And on your way pursue.
4 And if you meet with trials
And troubles on your way,
Cast all your care on Jesus,
And don't forget to pray;
Gird on the heavenly armor
Of faith, and hope, and love,
And when your race is ended
You'll reign with him above.

And take you home to rest.

Our friends are passing over,
And just before, the shining shore
By faith we now discover.

Our distant home discerning;
Our absent Lord has left us word,
Let every lamp be burning.
3 Should coming days be cold and
dark,
We need not cease our singing;
That perfect rest naught can molest,
Where golden harps are ringing.
4 Let sorrow's rudest tempests blow,
Each cord on earth to sever,
Our King says come, and there's our
home,
For ever, oh ! forever

401. That Sweet Story.
1 I think when I read that sweet story
of old,
When Jesus was here among men,
How he called little children as lambs
to his fold,
I should like to have been with them then.
2 I wish that his hands had been placed
on my head,
That his arms had been thrown around me,
And that I might have seen his kind
look when he said,
Let the little ones come unto me.
3 Yet still to his footstool in prayer I
may go,
And ask for a share in his love;
And if I thus earnestly seek him below,
I shall see him and hear him above.
4 In that beautiful place he is gone to
prepare,
For all who are washed and forgiven
;
And many dear children are gathering there,
For such is the kingdom of heaven

2 That evening I shall ne'er forget,
We left the house of prayer,
And shouted glory as we went,
We found the Saviour there
:
Oh bless the Lord, my brother dear,
We still can feel the glow
That warmed our hearts with love to him
Just fifty years ago.
3 We left our homes and journeyed forth
To preach the word divine
;
Your field was in a sister state,
And far remote from mine :
A hundred miles my circuit reached,
And oft through cold and snow
I rode to break the bread of life
Just forty years ago.
4 Our love-feast and commnnion there,
Four times in every year.
Drew preachers from adjoining towns,
And friends from far and near
;
We gathered at our Saviour's feet,
While grateful tears would flow,
And cheered each other on the way,
Just thirty years ago.
5 The stones that bear the hallowed names
Of those we held so dear
Are standing in the church -yard still,
Bedewed with memory's tear.
A streamlet near a mossy bank,
A willow bending low,
The only relics that remain
Of thirty years ago.
6 Oh, brother, how these memories sweet
Our hope and strength renew;
By faith the clusters of the grapes
From Pisgah's top we view
:
We'll soon be there on Canaan's shore,
Where joys eternal flow;
Free grace is just the same to day
'Twas fifty years ago.

Shall bear thee to thy heaven above,
But shall not enter there.
The sighing ones, that humbly seek

Shall in eternity rejoice,
Where endless comforts flow.
3 Soon will the toilsome strife be o'er,
Of sublunary care.
And life's dull vanities no more
This anxious breast ensnare.
Courage, my soul; on God rely;
Deliv'rance soon will come;
A thousand ways has Providence

Journeying onward from our birth,

Brings us nearer still to death.
Chorus.
Yes, we are pilgrims, yes, we are 'pilgrims,
Yes, we are pilgrims on our journey home.

Lies the land that knows no fears,
Where our steps no more may roam,
Pilgrims we are going home !

Who are missed and mourned for here,
Home to endless peace and love,
In our Father's house above.

Tempt our hearts or steps to stray
From that narrow path and straight,
Leading to the golden gate.

Who was once a pilgrim too
;
From his track we will not roam,
For to Christ we're going home.

Climbing up Zion's hill;
I'm bound to meet you in the skies,
And stand on Zion's hill.

Its beautiful gates I too behold,
The river of life, the crystal sea,
The ambrosial fruit of life's fair tree.

In rapture range the plains of light;
And in one harmonious choir they praise
Their glorious Saviour's matchless grace.

Boldly my heart said, joy shall last

3 Sudden and awful, from the height
of pleasure,
By pain and sickness, thrown upon a
down bed,
Vain is its softness to assuage the
painful
Raging disorder.
4 Ah ! many years I lived without
considering
Man is a mortal, dependent on a moment,
Life but a shadow, time a flying arrow,
Quick to dispel it.
[Hymn 2Vo. 437 continued.]
5 Oft I have listened, while death-bells
were tolling,
Seen the graves opening, and spectators
mourning,
But was myself, in spite of all these
warnings,
Long life expecting.
6 Counsels I've slighted, warnings
I've neglected,
In my gay moments, tho'ts of death
I banished,
When grown grayheaded, I have oft
resolved
Death to prepare for.
7 Tortured in body, and condemned
in spirit,
No sweet composure, to direct one
prayer,
All is disorder, yet my state eternal
Now is depending.
8 O, ghastly death ! pray stop one sin-

!
While I give warning to my gay com
panions
Shun my example.
2 When shall love freely flow
Pure as life's river ?
When shall sweet friendship glow
Changeless forever ?
Where joys celestial thrill,
Where bliss each heart shall fill,
And fears of parting chill
Neverno, never !
3 Up to that world of light
Take us, dear Saviour;
May we all there unite,
Happy forever;
Where kindred spirits dwell.
There may our music swell,
And time our joys dispel
Neverno, never

'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder

That I should ev

No heart can think, no tongue can tell, 'Tis a wonder, a won-der, Why
God should save my soul from hell, 'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder.
2 Great mystery that Christ should
place,
r
Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder;
His love on any of Adam's race,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder.
But there's a greater mystery.
'Tis a wonder, a wonder;
That he bestowed his love on me,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder.
8 Great mystery I do behold,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder;
That God should ever save a soul,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder.
But here's a greater mystery,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder;
That he bestowed his love on me,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder.
4 Why was I not still left behind,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder,
With thousand others of mankind,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder
To run the dangerous, sinful race,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder,
And die and never taste his grace ?
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder.
5 No mortal can a reason find,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder
;
'Tis mercy free and grace divine,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder.
0 ! 'tis a glorious mystery,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder
;
And will be to eternity,
'Tis a wonder, a wonder, a wonder

We shall suddenly meet,
And be parted in body no more

We shall sing to our lyres
With the heavenly choirs,

To our Father and King,
And his rapturous praises repeat

To the Lamb that was slain,
Hallelujah again

Something New.
Harmonized by J. W. A. Cluett. Rev. C Gorse.
1. Since man by sin has lost his God, He roams ere -a-tion through, And
vain-ly hopes for so-lid bliss In try-ing something new
2 The new possessed, like faded flow'rs,
Soon loses its gay hue,
The bubble now no longer takes,
The soul wants something new.
3 And could we call all Europe ours,
With India and Peru,
The mind would feel an aching void,
And still want something new.
4 But when we feel the Saviour's love,
All good in him we view,
The soul forsakes its vain pursuits
In Christ finds something new.
5 The joys the dear Redeemer brings
Will bear a strict review,
Nor need we ever change again
For Christ is always new.
6 But when the resurrection morn
Shall burst upon our view,
With heaven op'ning on the Lord
In scenes forever new.
[Hymn iVb. 478 continued.]

I thy saving grace implore
;
O'er my sins I have been grieving

2 Stand up ! stand up for Jesus !
The trumpet call obey;
Forth to the mighty conflict
In this his glorious day

"Ye are the men, now serve him,'
Against outnumbered foes;
Your courage rise with danger,
And strength to strength oppose,

And looking for her Lord.

He's not within the tomb.

In darkest night he bids us come,
And ^all our fears and wants make
known.
5 We'll cling to Jesus in the hour
When Sin and Satan use their pow'r,
And murmur not when sorrows come,
For bye and bye we're going home.

And we shall speak no parting word

O ! sinner, to our Saviour come,
And join the band that's going home.
