IN laying the Church Book with Music before the public, the Editor wishes to say something of the general plan and purpose of the work, and also to speak more particularly of certain points in it. This book has grown out of a manuscript compilation, originally intended for one of our Mission Churches in Philadelphia, and to some extent used in it. The strictly congregational character of the first manuscript has been retained, in. the belief that congregational singing, led by a choir or precentor, is the best mode for public worship, and most in keeping with the Service of our Church. The Chants used in The Liturgy have been carefully selected from the best compilations. To these has been added music adapted from various sources, generally English or German, to suit the Kyries and Versicles. For many of these adaptations the Editor is responsible. For others, thanks are due to friends whose names are given with the music. Throughout this portion of the work, the music has been selected with regard to the unity of the Service, as well as to the varied requirements of the Church-Year. By a system of reference from each part of the Service to that which follows immeostle, ,S/.

And although we have deserved Thy righteous wrath and manifold punish- ments, yet, we entreat Thee, 0 most merciful Father, remember not the sins of our youth, nor our many transgres- sions ; but out of Thine unspeakable goodness, grace and mercy, defend us from all harm and danger of body and soul. Preserve us from false and per- nicious doctrine, from war and blood- shed, from plague and pestilence, from all calamity by fire and water, from hail and tempest, from failure of har- vest and from famine, from anguish of heart and despair of Thy mercy, and from an evil death. And in every time of trouble, show Thyself a very present Help, the Saviour of all men, and especially of them that believe. Cause also the needful fruits of the earth to prosper, that we may enjoy them in due season.

They have done with all below ; We a little longer wait. But how little, none can know. 2 As the w^inged arrow flies Speedily, the mark to find ; As the lightning from the skies Darts, and leaves no trace behind ; Swiftly thus our fleeting days Bear us down life's rapid stream : Upward, Lord, our spirits raise ; All below is but a dream. Thanks for mercies past receive, Pardon of our sins renew ; Teach us henceforth how to live With eternity in view. Bless Thy Word to young and old, Fill us with a Saviour's love ; And when life's short tale is told. May we dwell with Thee above. John Newton. 1779.

Thy Death shall give me power To cry in that dark hour, O Death !

Yea, let earth's remotest end To Thy righteous seeptre hend ; Make Thy way before Thee plain, O'er all hearts and spirits reign. 5 Thou art leaving me, yet bringing God and heaven, most inly near : From this earthly life u])springing, 4 Lo, Thy presence now Is filling All Thy Church in every place, Fill my heart too, make me willing In this season of Thy grace. Come, Thou King of glory, come, Deign to make my heart Thy home. There al)ide and rule alone. As upon Thy heavenly throne.

He lives my hungry soul to feed. He lives to help in time of need. He lives to grant me rich supply, He lives to guide me with His eye. He lives to comfort me when faint, He lives to hear my soul's complaint. 19 — Hymns. He lives to silence all my fears, He lives to wipe away my tears. He lives to calm my troubled heart, He lives, all blessings to impart. He lives, and grants me daily breath ; He lives, and I shall conquer death ; He lives, my mansion to prepare ; He lives, to bring me safely there. He lives, all glory to His Name !

JESUS, my great High Priest, Offered His Blood and died ; My guilty conscience seeks No sacrifice beside. His powerful Blood did once atone, And now it pleads before the throne. To this dear Surety's hand Will I commit my cause ; * He answers and fulfils His Father's broken laws. Behold my soul at freedom set ; My Surety paid the dreadful debt. My Advocate appears For my defence on high ; The Father bows His ears, And lays His thunder by. Not all that hell or sin can say, Shall turn His heart, His Love away. Should all the hosts of death, And powers of hell unknown, Put their most dreadful forms Of rage and mischief on, I shall be safe, for Christ displays Superior power and guardian grace. Watts. no9.

Shake off thy guilty fears ; The bleeding Sacrifice In my behalf appears ; Before the throne my Surety stands, My name is written on His hands. He ever lives above, For me to intercede ; His all-redeeming Love, His precious Blood to plead ; His Blood atoned for all our race, And sprinkles now the throne of grace. Five bleeding wounds He bears, Received on Calvary ; They pour effectual prayers, They strongly plead for me ; Forgive him, O forgive, they cry, Nor let that ransomed sinner die ! The Father hears Him pray, His dear anointed One ; He cannot turn away The Presence of His Son ; His Spirit answers to the Blood, And tells me I am born of God. My God is reconciled. His pardoning voice I hear: He owns me for His child, I can no longer fear ; With confidence I now draw nigh. And Father, Abba Father ! cry. O.

And counts and treasures up my tears. 2 If aught should tempt my soul to stray From heavenly wisdom's narrow way, To fly the good I would pursue, Or do the sin I would not do ; Still He, who felt temptation's power. Shall guard me in that dangerous hour. 3 "When vexing thoughts within me rise, And sore dismayed, my spirit dies, Still He, who once vouchsafed to bear The sickening anguish of despair, Shall sweetly soothe, shall gently dry. The throbbing heart, the streaming eye. 4 When sorrowing o'er some stone I bend. Which covers what was once a friend : And from his voice, his hand, his smile, Divides me for a little while ; Thou, Saviour, seest the tears I shed. For Thou didst weep o'er Lazarus dead. 5 And O, when I have safely past Through every conflict but the last, Still, still unchanging, watch beside My painful bed, for Thou hast died ; Then point to realms of cloudless day. And wipe the latest tear away. ^V Robert Grant.

For every thirsty, longing heart, Here streams of bounty flow. And life and health, and bliss impart. To banish mortal woe. Here springs of sacred pleasure rise, To ease your every pain ; Immortal fountain ! full su-pplies ! Nor shall you thirst in vain. 5 Dear Saviour, draw reluctant hearts; To Thee let sinners fly.
