5 O God our King, whose sovereign sway, The glorious hosts of heaven obey, And devils at thy presence flee,

34

Blest is the man that trusts in thee.

L.M. (81)

UTHOR of faith, eternal Word, Whose Spirit breathes the active flame;

Faith, like its Finisher and Lord, To-day, as yesterday, the same. 2 To thee our humble hearts aspire, And ask the gift unspeakable; Increase in us the kindled fire,

In us the work of faith fulfil. 3 By faith we know thee strong to save; Save us, a present Saviour thou! Whate'er we hope, by faith we have, Future and past subsisting now.

4 To him that in thy name believes Eternal life with thee is given; Into himself he all receives,

Pardon, and holiness, and heaven. 5 The things unknown to feeble sense, Unseen by reason's glimmering ray, With strong commanding evidence, Their heavenly origin display.

6 Faith lends its realizing light,

The clouds disperse, the shadows fly;
The Invisible appears in sight,
And God is seen by mortal eye.

ESUS, thou everlasting King,

Accept the tribute which we bring;

Accept thy well-deserved renown, And wear our praises as thy crown. 2 Let every act of worship be Like our espousals, Lord, to thee, Like the glad hour when from above We first received the pledge of love. 3 The gladness of that happy day, it ever with us stay!

may

Nor let our faith forsake its hold,
Our hope decline, our love grow cold.
4 Let every moment, as it flies,
Increase thy praise, improve our joys,
Till we are raised to sing thy name,
At the great supper of the Lamb.

PIRIT of faith come down,
Reveal the things of God;
And make to us the Godhead known,
And witness with the blood:
"Tis thine the blood to apply,
And give us eyes to see,
Who did for every sinner die,

Hath surely died for me.

No man can truly say

That Jesus is the Lord,

Unless thou take the veil away,
And breathe the living word;

Then, only then, we feel
Our interest in his blood,
And cry, with joy unspeakable,
"Thou art my Lord, my God!"
3 0 that the world might know
The all-atoning Lamb!

Spirit of faith, descend, and show
The virtue of his Name;
The grace which all may find,
The saving power, impart;
And testify to all mankind,
And speak in every heart.

4 Inspire the living faith,
Which whosoe'er receives,
The witness in himself he hath,
And consciously believes;
The faith that conquers all,
And doth the mountain move,
And saves whoe'er on Jesus call,
And perfects them in love.

ПHOU Son of God, whose flaming eyes
Our inmost thoughts perceive,

Accept the evening sacrifice

Which now to thee give.

2 We bow before thy gracious throne,
And think ourselves sincere ;

But show us, Lord, is every one
Thy real worshipper?
