Israel all his care shall prove
Kept by watchful providence,
And ever-waking love.
Olo Additional Hymn*.
4 See the Lord, thy Keeper, stand
Omnipotently near !
Lo ! he holds thee by thy hand,
And banishes thy fear ;
Shadows with his wings thy head ;
Guards from all impending harms ; --
Round thee and beneath are spread
The everlasting arms.
5 Christ shall bless thy going out,
Shall bless thy coming in ;
Kindly compass thee about,
Till thou art saved from sin ;
Like thy spotless Master, thou,
Fill'd with wisdom, love, and power,
Holy, pure, and perfect, -- now,
Henceforth, and evermore.
HYMN 557. 10\s.
1 ^VHE servants of God, Your Master proclaim,
A And publish abroad His wonderful name ;
The name all victorious Of Jesus extol ;
His kingdom is glorious, And rules over all.
2 The waves of the sea Have lift up their voice,
Sore troubled that we In Jesus rejoice ;
The floods they are roaring, But Jesus is here ,
While we are adoring, He always is near.
3 God ruleth on high, Almighty to save ;
And still he is nigh, His presence we have ;
The great congregation His triumph shall sing,
Ascribing salvation To Jesus our King.
4 u Salvation to God Who sits on the throne,"
Let all cry aloud, And honour the Son ;
Our Jesus' s praises The angels proclaim,
Fall down on their faces, And worship the Lamb.

5 Then let us adore, And give him his right,
All glory and power, All wisdom and might.
All honour and blessing, With angels above,
And thanks never-ceasing, And infinite love.
6 Come, Lord, and display Thy sign in the sky,
And bear us away To mansions on high ;
The kingdom be given, The purchase divine,
And crown us in heaven Eternally thine.

Overturn all that hinders the course of thy love
My bosom inspire, Inkindle the fire,
And wrap my whole soul in the flames of desire.

0 when shall I say, my Beloved is mine !
1 have chos'n the good part ; My portion thou ait,
0 Love ; let me find thee, O God, in my heart.
