Take my body, spirit, soul;
Only thou possess the whole!

2 Thou my one thing needful be;
Let me ever cleave to thee,

Let me choose the better part,
Let me give thee all my heart.

3 Fairer than the sons of men,
Do not let me turn again;
Leave the fountain-head of bliss,
Stoop to creature happiness!
4. Whom have I on earth below?
Quly thee I'd wish to know;
Whom have I in heav'n but thee?
Thou art all in all to me.

5 All my treasure is above,
All my riches is thy love.
Who the worth of love can tell?
Infinite! unsearchable!

34. All in all. 113th.

"

In the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me upon a rock.-PSALM xxvii. 5.

?

WHY should I fear the darkest hour,
Or tremble at the tempest's pow'r?
JESUS Vouchsafes to be my tow'r.

2 Though hot the fight, why quit the field, Why must I either flee or yield, Since Jesus is my mighty shield?

3 When creature-comforts fade and die, Worldlings may weep,but why should I? JESUS still lives, and still is nigh.

19. 1 J

4 Though all the flocks and herds were dead,

My soul a famine need not dread, ⋅
For JESUS is my living bread.

5 I know not what may soon betide, Or how my wants shall be supplied; But JESUS knows, and will provide.

6 Though sin would fill me with distress, The throne of grace I dare address, For Jesus is my righteousness.

7 Though faint my pray'rs, and cold my love,

My steadfast hope shall not remove,
While Jesus intercedes above.

8 Against me earth and hell combine; But on my side is pow'r divine; JESUS is all, and he is mine.

35. All in all. P. M.

Looking unto Jesus.-HEBREWS xii. 2.

t

LAMB of God, we fall before thee,
Humbly trusting in thy cross:
That alone be all our glory
All things else we count but loss.

W

2 Thee we own a perfect Saviour,
Only source of all that's good:
Every grace and every favour
Comes to us through JESU's blood.

[3 JESUS gives us true repentance, By his Spirit sent from heaven; He pronounces the sweet sentence, "Son, thy sins are all forgiven.'

99

4 Faith he gives us, to believe it; Grateful hearts, his love to prize; Want we wisdom? He must give it, Hearing ears, and seeing eyes.

5 JESUS gives us pure affections;
Wills to do what he requires;
Makes us follow his directions;
And what he commands, inspires.]

7 When we live on JESU's merit,

Then we worship God aright;
FATHER, SON, and HOLY SPIRIT,

Then we savingly unite.

6 All our prayers and all our praises—
Humbly offer'd in his name-
He that dictates them, is JESUS,
He that answers, is the same.

8 Every grace and every favour,
Great or good whate'er we call,
Have we only in the Saviour;-
JESUS CHRISr is "all in all.”

36. Desire of Nations. C.M.

The Desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this
house with glory, saith the Lord of Hosts.-HAG. ii. 7.
COME, thou Desire of Nations, come,
And aid our feeble tongues;
While we thy worthy praise attempt
In our unworthy songs.

2 By faith we see, and we adore
Thy mercy, pow'r, and love;
And drawn by grace from sense and sin
To thee our spirits move.

3 Yes, JESUS, thou art our desire,
In thee our wishes meet;

Nor can the whole creation's round
Afford a name so sweet.

4 Let carnal minds for pleasure strive And after wealth aspire;

Our choice is made, our hearts are fix'd, For CHRIST is our desire.

5 Pity the nations, gracious Lord,
Where thou art yet unknown;
Be their desire as well as ours,
And make the world thine own.

37. Foundation. C. M.

Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner-stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.1 PET. ii. 6.

BEHOLD the sure Foundation-stone,
Which God in Zion lays,
To build our heav'nly hopes upon,
And his eternal praise.

2 Chosen of GOD, to sinners dear,
And saints adore the name;
They trust their whole salvation here,
Nor shall they suffer shame.

3 Though foolish builders may despise
This stone with blind disdain;
Yet thereupon thy Church shall rise,
And foes shall rage in vain.

4 What tho' the gates of hell withstood, Yet must this building rise; 'Tis thy own work, Almighty God, And wond'rous in our eyes.

38. Foundation. P.M.

Other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is JESUS CHRIST.-1 COR. iii. 11.

HAD I ten thousand gifts beside,
I'd cleave to JESUS crucify'd,
And build on him alone;
