HYMNS.

CREATION AND PROVIDENCE.

I

HYMN 1. C. M.

Works of God.

1 LOVE to see the glowing sun
Light up the deep blue sky,
Along the pleasant fields to run,
And hear the brooks flow by.

2 How fresh and green the trees appear;
What blooming flowers I find!
O, surely God has sent them here
To tell me he is kind.

3 The beasts that on the herbage feed
Thank him in different ways;
And little birds upon the boughs
Sing sweetly to his praise.

4 Shall I alone forget to thank
The God who made us all?
O no, I'll humbly kneel to him,
And on my Maker call.

5 Though I am but a little child,
Yet I to God belong;

His works declare him good and mild,
And he will hear my song.

1I

HYMN 2. C. M

Power and Goodness of God.
SING the mighty power of God
That made the mountains rise;
That spread the flowing seas abroad,
And built the lofty skies.

2 I sing the wisdom that ordained
The sun to rule the day;
The moon shines full at his command,
And all the stars obey.

3 I sing the goodness of the Lord,
That filled the earth with food;
He formed the creatures with his word,
And then pronounced them good.

4 There's not a plant or flower below
But makes thy glories known;

1

And clouds arise, and tempests blow,
By order from thy throne.

PRAISE.

HYMN 3. C. M.

Invitation to Praise.

1 COME, let us join the hosts abova,

Now in our youthful days;

Remember our Creator's love,
And lisp our Father's praise.

2 His majesty will not despise
The day of feeble things;
Grateful the songs of children rise
And please the King of kings.

3 He loves to be remembered thus,
And honoured for his grace;
Out of the mouths of babes like us
His wisdom calls forth praise.

4 Glory to God, and praise and power,
Honour and thanks be given!
Children and cherubim adore
The Lord of earth and heaven.

HYMN 4. S. M.

Praise to the Saviour.

O praise the Saviour's name,
Let little children try;

While saints and angels do the same
In the bright world on high.

2 His love in heaven is sung,
His name is there adored;
And children here, however young,
May learn to praise the Lord.

3 The wonders of that love

No earthly tongue can tell,
Which brought the Saviour from above,
To save our souls from hell.

4 Lord Jesus! grant that we May know thy saving grace;

On earth thy humble followers be;
In heaven behold thy face.

HYMN 5. C. M.

Praise for Mercies.

1 LORD, I would own thy tender care,
And all thy love to me;
The food I eat, the clothes I wear,
Are all bestowed by thee.

2 And thou preservest me from death
And dangers, every hour:
I cannot draw another breath,
Unless thou give the power.

3 My health, and friends, and parents dear, To me by God are given;

I have not any blessings here,

But what are sent from heaven.

4 Such goodness, Lord, and constant care,
A child can ne'er repay;
Bnt may it be my daily prayer
To love thee and obey.

HYMN 6. S. M.

Praise to Jehovah.

1 COME, sound his praise abroad,
And hymns of glory sing;

Jehovah is the sovereign God,
The universal King.

2 He formed the deeps unknown,
gave the seas their bound;

He
