Then welcome joy, and farewell fear,
And calm, ye wild waves, be;

If only, Lord, Thy voice I hear,
"My child, abide in Me."

HYMN TO THE HOLY TRINITY.

"Who shall not fear Thee, O Lord, and glorify Thy name?" REV. XV. 4.

FATHER of heaven above,

Dwelling in light and love,

Ancient of days,

Light unapproachable,

Love inexpressible,

Thee, the Invisible,

Laud we and praise.

Christ, the eternal Word,

Christ, the incarnate Lord,

Saviour of all,

High throned above all height,
God of God, Light of Light,

Increate, infinite,

On Thee we call.

O God, the Holy Ghost,

Whose fires of Pentecost

Burn evermore,

In this far wilderness

Leave us not comfortless:

Thee we love, Thee we bless,

Thee we adore.

Strike your harps, heavenly powers; With your glad chants shall ours

Trembling ascend:

All praise, O God, to Thee,

Three in One, One in Three,

Praise everlastingly,

World without end.

THE TRUMPET OF JUBILEE.

"Trumpets of silver."-NUMB. X. 2.

O BROTHERS, lift your voices,
Triumphant songs to raise ;

Till heaven on high rejoices,

And earth is fill'd with praise.
Ten thousand hearts are bounding
With holy hopes, and free;
The Gospel trump is sounding,
The trump of Jubilee.

O Christian brothers! glorious
Shall be the conflict's close:

The cross hath been victorious,

And shall be o'er its foes.

Faith is our battle-token;

Our Leader all controls; Our trophies, fetters broken;

Our captives, ransom'd souls.

Not unto us Lord Jesus,

To Thee all praise be due! Whose blood-bought mercy frees us,

Has freed our brethren too.

Not unto us -in glory

The angels catch the strain,

And cast their crowns before Thee

Exultingly again.

Captain of our salvation,
Thy presence we adore:
Praise, glory, adoration

Be Thine for evermore!

Still on in conflict pressing

On Thee Thy people call,

Thee, King of kings, confessing,

Thee crowning Lord of all.
