1. I know that my Redeem- er lives, And ever prays for me; 2. I find him lifting up my head; He brings salva- tion near; 3. He wills that I should holy be! What can with-stand his will; 4. Je- sus, I hang up on thy word; I stead-fast- ly

52 AT THE CROSS I'LL ABIDE.

I. BALTZELL.

1. O Jesus, Saviour, I long to rest Near the cross where thou hast died; 2. My dy- ing Je- sus, my Saviour, God, Who hast borne my guilt and sin, 3. O Jesus, Saviour, now make me thine, Never let me stray from thee; 4. The cleansing pow'r of thy blood apply, All my guilt and sin re- move;

For there is hope for the ach-ing breast, At the cross I will a bide. Now wash me, cleanse me with thine own blood, Ever keep me pure and clean. Oh, wash me, cleanse me, for thou art mine, And thy love is full and free. Oh, help me, while at thy cross I lie, Fill my soul with perfect love.

54 THE DAY OF JUBILEE.

1 How beauteous, on the mountains,

The feet of him that brings,
Likestreams from living fountains,
Good tidings of good things;
That publisheth salvation,
And jubilee release,

To every tribe and nation,

God's reign of joy and peace!
2 Lift up thy voice, oh, watchman!
And shout, from Zion's towers,
Thy hallelujah chorus,-

"The victory is ours!"

Tune,-AURELIA. No. 53.

The Lord shall build up Zion
In glory and renown,
And Jesus, Judah's lion,

Shall wear his rightful crown.
3 Break forth in hymns of gladness;
Oh, waste Jerusalem!
Let songs, instead of sadness,
Thy jubilee proclaim;
The Lord, in strength victorious,
Upon thy foes hath trod;
Behold, oh, earth! the glorious
Salvation of our God!

55 TILL HE COME. 7s. 6 lines.

Lin- ger on the trembling chords,
Enter on that rest above,
Would we have one sor - row less?

1. "Till he come!" oh, let the words
2. When the wea- ry ones we love
3. Clouds and darkness round us press;
4. See, the feast of love is spread, Drink the wine and eat the bread:

Let the "little while" be-tween In their gold-en light be seen;
When their words of love and cheer
All the sharp-ness of the cross,
Sweet me-morials, till the Lord

Fall no long-er on our ear,
All that tells the world is loss,
Call us round his heav'n-ly board:

Let us think how heav'n and home Lie beyond that "Till he come!"
Hush! be ev - 'ry mur-mur dumb, It is on - ly "Till he come!
Death, and darkness, and the tomb, Pain us on
Some from earth, from glo- ry some, Sev-ered on

WM. J. KIRKPATRICK.

1. Watch, ye saints, with eyelids waking, Lo, the pow'rs of heav'n are shaking; Lo! the promise of your Saviour: Pardon'd sin and purchas'd favor, 3. Kingdoms at their base are crumbling, Hark, his chariot wheels are rumbling; 4. Nations wane, tho' proud and stately, Christ his kingdom hasteneth greatly;

Lo! he comes, lo! Je-sus comes; Lo! he comes, he comes all glorious!

Je-sus comes to reign vic-to-rious, Lo! he comes, yes, Je-sus comes.
