The mighty word is spoken,

Thy bondage chains are broken :
Hosanna! wake to liberty.

Rise, Judah, rise! display
Thy beautiful array ;

From dungeon gloom of sadness,
Walk forth in light and gladness :
Hosanna! 'tis thy promis'd day.

Thy Captain waves his hand!
To Canaan's happy land!
To Silo's living fountain!
To Zion's holy mountain!
Hosanna! Jesus gives command.

A thousand voices cheer,
A thousand signs appear,
To point thy coming glory;

A deathless crown hangs o'er thee:
Hosanna! Paradise is near!

PASSAGE OF THE RED SEA.

OUND the loud timbrel o'er Egypt's dark sea,

SOUN
Jehovah has triumph'd, his people are free!

Sing, for the pride of the tyrant is broken,
His chariots and horsemen all splendid and brave,
How vain was their boasting, the Lord hath but

spoken,

And chariots and horsemen are sunk in the wave. Chorus. Sound the loud timbrel, &c.

Praise to the Conq'ror, O praise to the Lord,
His word was our arrow, his breath was our sword.
Who shall return to tell Egypt the story,

Of those she sent forth in the hour of her pride!
For the Lord hath looked forth from his pillar of

glory,

And all her brave thousands are dashed in the tide.

Chorus. Sound the loud timbrel, &c.

THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.

OD save our gracious Queen,

Go

Long may Victoria reign;
God save the Queen!

Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,

Long to reign over us,

God save the Queen.

O Lord our God, arise,
Scatter her enemies,

And make them fall;
Confound their politics,

Frustrate their knavish tricks; On Thee our hopes we fix :

God save us all.

Thy choicest gifts in store,
On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign!
May she defend our laws;
And ever give us cause

To sing with heart and voice,

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN.

MORNING PRAYER FOR A YOUNG

ALMIGHTY GOD, our Heavenly Father, I

thank Thee that Thou hast brought me in health and safety to the beginning of another day. Be pleased to watch over me this day, and to preserve me from all dangers both of body and soul. Help me, by Thy grace, to strive against all sin; to resist the temptations of the world, the flesh, and the devil; and to get the better of all bad tempers and unholy dispositions. Make me to feel that I cannot by myself do any thing that is good; and teach me so to pray for the gift of Thy Holy Spirit, that under His blessed influence I may be holy, humble, thankful, and obedient. Pardon all my sins for the sake of Jesus Christ, who so loved poor sinners, that He shed His precious
