PART I.-SECTION I.

THE EXISTENCE, ATTRIBUTES, AND WORKS OF GOD.

GOD is a name my soul adores,
Th' almighty Three, th' eternal One!
Nature and grace, with all their powers,
Confess the Infinite Unknown.

2 Thy voice produced the seas and spheres,
Bade the waves roar, the planets shine;
But nothing like thyself appears

Through all these spacious works of thine.
3 Still restless nature dies and grows,
From change to change the creatures run:
Thy being no succession knows,
And all thy vast designs are one.

4 How shall astonish'd mortals dare
To sing thy glory or thy grace?
Beneath thy feet we lie so far,
And see but shadows of thy face.
5 Who can behold the blazing light?
Who can approach consuming flame?
None but thy wisdom knows thy might;
None but thy word can speak thy name.

HYMN 2. L.M.

God revealed in his Works.

My God, I love and I adore!

But souls that love would know thee more:
Wilt thou for ever hide and stand
Behind the labours of thy hand?
2 The starry arch proclaims thy power,
Thy pencil glows in every flower;
Thy hand, unseen, sustains the poles
On which this huge creation rolls.

3 Thy painted wonders, to our eyes,
In thousand shapes and colours rise;
While beasts and birds, with lab'ring throats,
Teach us a God in thousand notes.

4 Where sense can reach, or fancy rove,
From hill to hill, from field to grove;
The meanest pin in nature's frame
Marks out some letter of thy name.
5 There's not a spot, or deep or high,
Across the waves, around the sky,
Where the Creator has not trod,
And left the footstep of a God.

6 Fain would I trace th' immortal way,
That leads to courts of endless day;
Where the Creator stands confess'd,
In his own fairest glories dress'd.
7 Bless'd Jesus! meet me on the road;
Fit me to dwell in heaven with God:
Clothe me with vestures yet unknown,
And place me near thy Father's throne.

HYMN 3. L.M.

The same.

THE spacious firmament on high,
With all the blue ethereal sky,
