Delight in what thyself hast given ; On thy own gifts and graces feast, And make the contrite heart thy heaven 3 Smell the sweet odour of our prayers, Our sacrifice of praise approve : And treasure up our gracious tears, And rest in thy redeeming love. 4 Beneath thy shadow let us sit, Call us thy friends, and love, and bride ; And bid us freely drink and eat Thy dainties, and be satisfied. 5 O let us on thy fulness feed, And eat thy flesh and drink thy blood ! Jesus, thy blood is drink indeed, Jesus, thy flesh is angels' food. 6 The heavenly manna faith imparts ; Faith makes thy fulness all our own ; We feed upon thee in our hearts, And find that heaven and thou are one HYMN 508. 7's. 1 /^< OD of love, that hear'st the prayer, VJ Kindly for thy people care, Who on thee alone depend : Love us, save us to the end. 2 Save us, in the prosperous hour, From the flattering Tempter's power, From his unsuspected wiles. From the world's pernicious smiles. For the Society Praying. 475 3 Cut oft' our dependance vain On the help of feeble man ; Every arm of flesh remove ; Stay us on thy only love ! 4 Men of worldly, low design, Let not these thy people join, Poison our simplicity, Drag us from our trust in thee. 5 Save us from the great and wise, Till they sink in their own eyes, Tamely to thy yoke submit, Lay their honours at thy feet. 6 Never let the world break in ; Fix a mighty gulf between : Keep us little and unknown, Prized and loved by God alone. 7 Let us still to thee look up, Thee, thy Israel's Strength and Hope ; Nothing know, or seek, beside Jesus, and him crucified. 8 Far above all earthly things, Look we down on earthly kings ; Taste our glorious liberty ; Find our happy all in thee ! HYMN 509. 7's. 1 TESUS, Lord, we look to thee, *J Let us in thy name agree : Show thyself the Prince of Peace ; Bid our jars for ever cease. 2 By thy reconciling love, Every stumbling-block remove ; Each to each unite, endear ; Come, and spread thy banner here !
