Hymn.

According to Thy gracious word, 139

Acquaint thee, O spirit, acquaint thee with God, 199

Affliction’s faded form draws nigh, 329

Ages, ages have departed, 439

A holy air is breathing round, 157

All around us, fair with flowers, 306

All from the sun’s uprise, 495

All men are equal in their birth, 182

All-seeing God! ’tis Thine to know, 288

All ye nations, praise the Lord, 499

Almighty Father! Thou hast many a blessing, 217

Almighty God! in humble prayer, 43

Almighty Spirit, now behold, 594

Am I a soldier of the cross, 311

An offering at the shrine of power, 426

Another day its course has run, 372

Another hand is beckoning us, 404

Approach not the altar with gloom in thy soul, 464

As down in the sunless retreats of the ocean, 96

As every day Thy mercy spares, 59

As oft, with worn and weary feet, 113

As the hart, with eager looks, 226

As the sun’s enlivening eye, 69

Author of good, we rest on Thee, 260

A voice from the desert, 103

A voice upon the midnight air, 131

Awake, my soul! lift up thine eyes, 318

Awake, my soul! stretch every nerve, 315

Awake, our souls, away, our fears, 541

A wondrous star our pioneer, 424

Bear on, my soul! the bitter cross, 532

Before Jehovah’s awful throne, 18

Behold, night’s shadows fade, 550

Behold, the Prince of Peace, 112

Behold the son, how bright, 170

Be near us, O Father, through night’s silent hour, 556

Beneath the shadow of the cross, 564

Beneath the thick but struggling clouds, 295

Beneath Thy trees to-day we meet, 459

Be still! be still! for all around, 4

Be still, my heart! these anxious cares, 323

Be Thou, O God, by night, by day, 551

Birds have their quiet rest, 126

Bless, O Lord, each opening year, 566

Blessed be Thy name forever, 55

Blessed, blessed are the dead, 348

Blest are the pure in heart, 281

Bread of heaven, on thee we feed, 153

Breast the wave, Christian, when it is strongest, 317

Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, 108

Brother, hast thou wandered far, 195

Brother, the angels say, 358

Brother, thou art gone before us, 403

Brother, though from yonder sky, 405

Brother, will you slight the message, 511

Burden of shame and woe, 133

By cool Siloam’s shady rill, 444

By earth hemmed in, by earth oppressed, 455

Call the Lord thy sure salvation, 534

Calm on the bosom of thy God, 410

Calm on the listening ear of night, 106

Cheek grow pale, but heart be vigorous, 320

Child, amidst the flowers at play, 98

Christ to the young man said, 569

Clay to clay, and dust to dust, 406

Climb we the mountain afar, 440

Come at the morning hour, 463

Come, kingdom of our God, 584

Come, said Jesus’ sacred voice, 121

Come, Thou Almighty King, 480

Come to Jesus, O my brothers, 161

Come to me, thoughts of heaven, 519

Come to the house of prayer, 1

Come to the land of peace, 360

Come unto me, when shadows darkly gather, 160

“Come who will,” the voice from heaven, 159

Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish, 162

Come, ye who love the Lord, 3

Commit thou all thy griefs, 254

Creator of all, through whose all-seeing might, 558

Cross, reproach and tribulation, 535

Darkness o’er the world was brooding, 104

Dark were the paths our Master trod, 128

Daughter of Zion, awake from thy sadness, 583

Daughter of Zion! from the dust, 179

Day by day the manna fell, 30

Dear as Thou wast, and justly dear, 407

Deem not that they are blest alone, 326

Down the dark future; through long generations, 421

Earth’s busy sounds, and ceaseless din, 481

Ere to the world again we go, 503

Eternal and immortal King, 537

Eternal God! Almighty Cause, 471

Ever patient, loving, meek, 120

Every bird that upward springs, 544

Fading, still fading, the last beam is shining, 370

Faint the earth, and parched with drought, 598

Faint not, poor traveller, though the way, 322

Feeble, helpless, how shall I, 214

Flung to the heedless winds, 428

Followers of Christ! arise, 542

For all Thy saints, O God, 167

Forever with the Lord, 231

For mercies past we praise Thee, Lord, 507

Forth from the dark and stormy sky, 6

Forth went the heralds of the cross, 165

Fountain of life, and God of love, 396

From all that dwell below the skies, 63

From every fear and doubt, O Lord, 35

From foes that would our land devour, 434

From Greenland’s icy mountains, 416

From the recesses of a lowly spirit, 489

From Zion’s holy hill there rose, 473

Gently fall the dews of eve, 335

Give to the winds thy fears, 256

Go when the morning shineth, 97

Great God, and wilt Thou condescend, 448

Great God, the followers of Thy son, 24

Great Ruler of all nature’s frame, 546

Grows dark thy path before thee, 456

Guide us, Lord, while hand in hand, 62

Hallelujah! best and sweetest, 498

Hark! the glad sound, the Saviour comes, 109

Hark! through the waking earth, 188

Hasten, Lord, to my release, 216

Hast thou, midst life’s empty noises, 301

Hath not thy heart within thee burned, 90

Hear, Father, hear our prayer, 488

Hear what God, the Lord, hath spoken, 192

Heave, mighty ocean, heave, 430

Heaven is a state of rest from sin, 232

Heavenly Father, to whose eye, 493

He knelt, the Saviour knelt and prayed, 132

He lived as none but he has lived, 125

Heralds of creation! cry, 465

Here, in this place of prayer, 12

He sendeth sun, he sendeth shower, 264

He was there alone, when even, 118

How shall we praise Thee, Lord of light, 25

How sweet, how calm, this Sabbath morn, 374

How sweetly flowed the gospel’s sound, 119

Hush the loud cannon’s roar, 184

I am free! I am free! I have broken away, 244

I cannot always trace the way, 74

If love the noblest, purest, best, 146

If on our daily course our mind, 304

In pleasant lands have fallen the lines, 433

In the broad fields of heaven, 413

In the cross of Christ we glory, 145

In the morning I will pray, 364

In the Saviour’s hour of death, 134

In Thy courts let peace be found, 14

In time of tribulation, 548

In trouble and in grief, O God, 334

In vain we thus recall to mind, 149

I saw on earth another light, 91

Israel’s shepherd, guide us, feed us, 58

Is there a lone and dreary hour, 266

Is this a fast for me, 387

I thirst! O grant the waters pure, 236

It is a faith sublime and sure, 356

It is finished! glorious word, 136

It is finished! Man of sorrows, 141

It is the hour of prayer, 506

It was no path of flowers, 142

I want a principle within, 224

I want the spirit of power within, 223

Jesus shall reign where’er the sun, 176

Jesus, we thy promise claim, 560

Jesus, while he dwelt below, 452

Jews were wrought to cruel madness, 135

Joy! joy! a year is born, 389

Joy to the world! the Lord is come, 110

Launch thy bark, mariner, 431

Leader of Israel’s host, and guide, 270

Lead us with Thy gentle sway, 502

Let me not wander comfortless, 338

Let the world despise and leave me, 536

Lift your glad voices in triumph on high, 137

Light of life, seraphic fire, 21

Like morning, when her early breeze, 510

Like shadows gliding o’er the plain, 402

Lo! God is here; let us adore, 13

Lo! my shepherd’s hand divine, 469

Lord! before Thy presence come, 17

Lord! deliver; Thou canst save, 581

Lord! dismiss us with Thy blessing, 70

Lord, lead the way the Saviour went, 575

Lord of the families below, 504

Lord of the Sabbath, hear our vows, 373

Lord of the wide-extended main, 572

Lord of the worlds above, 16

Lord of the world, who hast preserved, 557

Lord, once our faith in man no fear could move, 420

Lord! subdue our selfish will, 505

Lord! Thou didst arise and say, 186

Lord! Thy glory fills the heaven, 47

Lord! what offering shall we bring, 11

Lord! when Thine ancient people cried, 438

Lord! whom winds and seas obey, 570

Lo! the lilies of the field, 267

Love divine, all love excelling, 8

Love on! love on! but not the things that own, 298

Lowly and solemn be, 344

Many a power within earth’s bosom, 432

Mark the soft-falling snow, 169

May freedom speed onward, wherever the blood, 582

Meet and right it is to sing, 497

Men! whose boast it is that ye, 437

Mighty God! the first, the last, 72

Mighty One! whose name is holy, 414

My dear Redeemer, and my Lord, 147

My Father, when around me spread, 337

My God! all nature owns Thy sway, 86

My God! in life’s most doubtful hour, 531

My God! in morning’s radiant hour, 56

My God, I thank Thee! may no thought, 327

My God, my Father, while I stray, 263

My God, my strength, my hope, 225

My God, permit me not to be, 221

My soul, be on thy guard, 543

My soul no more shall strive in vain, 241

Nature hath seasons of repose, 586

Nay, tell us not of dangers dire, 309

Nearer, my God, to Thee, 239

No human eyes Thy face may see, 76

No more, on earth no more, 352

None loves me, Father, with Thy love, 249

Not in the name of pride, 155

Not in this simple rite alone, 152

Not only doth the voiceful day, 89

Not that Thy boundless love, my God, 275

Not to the terrors of the Lord, 454

Not with the flashing steel, 419

Now from the altar of our hearts, 508

Now gird your patient loins again, 451

Now host with host assembling, 576

Now let our voices join, 590

Now that the sun is beaming bright, 365

Now the shades of night are gone, 363

O, Almighty God of love, 524

O be not faithless! with the morn, 297

O come and dwell in me, 517

O, draw me, Father, after Thee, 222

O’er silent field and lonely lawn, 461

O’er the mount and through the moor, 308

O fairest born of love and light, 181

Of all the thoughts of God that are, 479

O Father, humbly we repose, 250

O Father, lift our souls above, 39

O Father, though the anxious fear, 7

O for a faith that will not shrink, 520

O for a heart to praise my God, 518

O from these visions dark and drear, 208

O give thanks to Him who made, 496

O God, by whom the seed is given, 65

O God! I thank Thee that the night, 366

O God! the darkness roll away, 172

O God! Thy children, gathered here, 384

O God! to Thee our hearts would pay, 401

O God! to Thee who first hast given, 243

O God! we praise Thee, and confess, 50

O God! who knowest how frail we are, 34

O God, whose presence glows in all, 23

Oh God, that mad’st the earth and sky, 545

O, he whom Jesus loved has truly spoken, 578

O, heaven is where no secret dread, 361

O help us, Lord! each hour of need, 209

O here, if ever, God of love, 158

O holy Father, ’mid the calm, 26

O, if thy brow serene and calm, 287

O know ye not that ye, 280

O let my trembling soul be still, 252

O Lord! how happy should we be, 230

O Lord! through Thee we own, 246

O Lord! Thy heavenly grace impart, 242

O Love! how cheering is thy ray, 233

O lovely voices of the sky, 107

On earth was darkness spread, 138

One cup of healing oil and wine, 291

One prayer I have, all prayers in one, 521

O, not alone on the mount of prayer, 290

O, not alone with outward sign, 198

“O, not for these alone I pray,” 151

O not to crush with abject fear, 122

O not when the death-prayer is said, 343

On the dark wave of Galilee, 127

On the dewy breath of even, 554

Onward, Christian, though the region, 313

Onward speed thy conquering flight, 591

Open, Lord, mine inward ear, 93

Oppression shall not always reign, 190

O pure Reformers! not in vain, 191

O, richly, Father, have I been, 203

O sacred head, now wounded, 562

O say not, think not, heavenly notes, 443

O send me not away! for I would drink, 202

O source divine, and life of all, 75

O speed thee, Christian, on thy way, 316

O spirit, freed from earth, 351

O Spirit of the living God, 587

O stay thy tears! for they are blest, 346

O still trust on, if in the heart, 299

O suffering Friend of human kind, 129

O Thou, at whose divine command, 486

O Thou, at whose rebuke, the grave, 441

O Thou from whom all goodness flows, 211

O Thou great Friend to all the sons of men, 156

O Thou great Spirit, who along, 500

O Thou, in whom the weary find, 513

O Thou, the primal fount of life and peace, 477

O Thou, to whom in ancient time, 81

O Thou, who all things dost control, 512

O Thou, who driest the mourner’s tear, 475

O Thou, who hast at Thy command, 38

O Thou, who hast Thy servants taught, 482

O Thou, who in the garden’s shade, 140

O Thou, whose own vast temple stands, 383

O Thou, whose power o’er moving worlds presides, 467

O Thou, whose power stupendous, 388

O Thou, whose presence went before, 435

Our blest Redeemer, ere he breathed, 193

Our country is Immanuel’s ground, 449

Our Father, God! not face to face, 487

Our Father, through the coming year, 390

Our Father! we thank Thee for sleep, 460

Our God is a spirit, and they who aright, 20

Our heavenly Father, hear, 28

Our pathway oft is wet with tears, 331

Out of the depths of woe, 547

O what though our feet may not tread where Christ trod, 150

O where are kings and empires now, 588

O where shall rest be found, 227

O who shall say he knows the folds, 283

Part in peace! is day before us, 60

Partners of a glorious hope, 561

Peace of God, which knows no measure, 61

Pour, blessed Gospel, glorious news for man, 177

Pour forth the oil,—pour boldly forth, 294

Praise and thanks and cheerful love, 391

Praise the Lord, when blushing morning, 393

Praise the Lord, ye heavens adore Him, 51

Praise to God, immortal praise, 468

Prayer is the soul’s sincere desire, 99

Prayer is to God the soul’s sure way, 100

Press on, press on! ye sons of light, 312

Prisoners of hope, be strong, be bold, 593

Quiet from God! how beautiful to keep, 282

Quiet, Lord, my froward heart, 234

Rejoice in God alway, 257

Return, my soul, unto thy rest, 218

Rise, my soul, and stretch thy wings, 238

Saviour, I my cross have taken, 272

Scorn not the slightest word or deed, 307

“See how he loved,” exclaimed the Jews, 123

See Israel’s gentle shepherd stand, 445

See the Lord, thy helper, stand, 253

Send kindly light amid the encircling gloom, 220

Shall we grow weary in our watch, 278

Shine on our souls, eternal God, 42

Sing, ye redeemed of the Lord, 597

Slavery and death the cup contains, 577

Sleep not, soldier of the cross, 314

Slowly, by God’s hand unfurled, 371

Songs of praise the angels sang, 48

Sons of men, behold from far, 111

Soul! celestial in thy birth, 197

Source of light and life divine, 368

Sow in the morn thy seed, 540

Speak gently,—it is better far, 285

Speak with us, Lord, Thyself reveal, 522

Spirit of peace and love and power, 599

Suppliant, lo! Thy children bend, 15

Supreme and universal Light, 44

Supreme disposer of the heart, 538

Sweet is the light of Sabbath eve, 462

Sweet is the prayer whose holy stream, 101

Sweet morn! from countless cups of gold, 362

Teach me, my God and King, 302

Teach us to pray, 27

Tell me not, in mournful numbers, 310

Thanks, thanks unto God! who in mercy hath spoken, 345

Thanks to God for those who came, 166

That blessed law of Thine, 229

That might of faith, O Lord, bestow, 526

The aged sufferer waited long, 116

The breaking waves dashed high, 478

The bud will soon become a flower, 300

The darkened sky, how thick it lowers, 328

The daylight is fading o’er earth and o’er ocean, 552

The dead are like the stars by day, 353

The dove, let loose in Eastern skies, 273

The earth all light and loveliness, 395

The fountain in its source, 240

The glorious universe around, 585

The heavenly spheres to Thee, O God, 399

The kings of old have shrine and tomb, 427

The land our fathers left to us, 436

The light pours down from heaven, 458

The Lord descended from above, 472

The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know, 247

The Lord our God is full of might, 573

The mourners came, at break of day, 347

The ocean looketh up to heaven, 85

The offerings to Thy throne which rise, 19

The past is dark with sin and shame, 187

The peace which God bestows, 164

There cometh o’er the spirit, 392

There is a book, who runs may read, 476

There is a state unknown, unseen, 357

There is a world we have not seen, 450

There’s a strife we all must wage, 319

There’s nothing bright above, below, 83

The saints on earth and those above, 453

The Spirit in our hearts, 194

The spirits of the loved and the departed, 354

The uplifted eye and bended knee, 305

The winds are hushed; the peaceful moon, 474

The world may change from old to new, 274

They who on the Lord rely, 248

They who seek the throne of grace, 82

Think gently of the erring one, 284

Thirsting for a living spring, 5

This child we dedicate to Thee, 377

This world is not a fleeting show, 296

Thou art gone to the grave; but we will not deplore thee, 409

Thou art, O God, the life and light, 84

Though lonely be thy path, fear not, for He, 336

Though wandering in a strange land, 88

Thou givest Thy Sabbath, Lord! the din is stilled, 485

Thou hidden love of God, whose height, 219

Thou, infinite in love, 333

Thou Lord of hosts, whose guiding hand, 425

Thou, Lord, who rear’st the mountain’s height, 303

Thou most be born again, 200

Thou seest my feebleness, 516

Thou that art strong to comfort, look on me, 330

Thou, whose almighty word, 174

Through all the various shifting scene, 261

Through all this life’s eventful road, 66

Throughout the hours of darkness dim, 559

Through thee as we together came, 163

Thus said Jesus, “Go and do, 292

Thy bounteous hand with food can bless, 492

“Thy kingdom come,” the heathen lands, 171

Thy presence, ever-living God, 67

Thy servants in the temple watched, 589

Thy servant’s sandals, Lord, are wet, 386

Thy way is on the deep, O Lord, 332

Thy will be done! in devious way, 265

Thy will be done! I will not fear, 276

’Tis my happiness below, 271

’Tis not the gift, but ’tis the spirit, 289

“To God be glory! peace on earth!” 422

To Him who children blest, 379

To prayer, to prayer!—for the morning breaks, 2

To Thee, O God in heaven, 378

To Thee, the Lord Almighty, 494

To the Father’s love we trust, 412

To Thine eternal arms, O God, 205

Triumphant Zion! lift thy head, 178

Turn, child of doubt, estranged from God, 196

Turn not from him who asks of thee, 286

Unchangeable, all-perfect Lord, 71

Unto Thy temple, God of love, 10

Up to the throne of God is borne, 369

Wait on the Lord, ye heirs of hope, 529

Was it in vain that Jesus prayed, 183

Watchman, tell us of the night, 102

We all, O Father, all are Thine, 251

We bless Thee for this sacred day, 484

Weep thou, O mourner, but in lamentation, 340

We follow, Lord, where Thou dost lead, 563

We join to pray, with wishes kind, 380

We love the venerable house, 423

We love this outward world, 339

We pray for truth and peace, 525

Westward, Lord, the world alluring, 418

We wait in faith; in prayer we wait, 595

We will not weep; for God is standing by us, 533

We would leave, O God, to Thee, 324

What precept, Jesus, is like thine, 442

What shall we ask of God in prayer, 32

When arise the thoughts of sin, 148

When, blest Redeemer, thou art near, 154

When from the Jordan’s gleaming wave, 376

When grief and anguish press me down, 262

When in silence o’er the deep, 568

When in thine hour of conflict, Lord, 215

When Israel of the Lord beloved, 36

When long the soul had slept in chains, 574

When on devotion’s seraph wing, 359

When my love to Christ grows weak, 144

When the parting bosom bleeds, 571

When thirst for power or for gold, 457

When with error bewildered, our path becomes dreary, 212

Where ancient forests widely spread, 382

Where for a thousand miles, 417

Where is thy sting, O death, 349

While shepherds watched their flocks by night, 105

While sounds of war are heard around, 580

While Thee I seek, protecting Power, 95

While the stars unnumbered roll, 555

While yet the youthful spirit bears, 447

Who is thy neighbor? he whom thou, 293

Who shall behold the glorious day, 175

Why, Thou never-setting Light, 210

Wilt Thou not visit me, 237

Within Thy courts have millions met, 375

With silence only as their benediction, 342

Wouldst thou in thy lonely hour, 92

Yea! I will extol Thee, 549

Ye joyous ones! upon whose brow, 446

Ye servants of the Lord, 277

Yes! prayer is strong, and God is good, 206
