"Worthy the Lamb, for sinners slain,
Through endless years to live and reign;
Thou hast redeem'd us by Thy blood,
And made us kings and priests to God."
HYMN 76.
Lord of the Sabbath! hear us pray,
In this Thy house, on this Thy day;
Accept, as grateful sacrifice,
The songs which from Thy temple rise.
Now met to pray, and bless Thy Name,
Whose mercies flow each day the same;
Whose kind compassions never cease,
We seek instruction, pardon, peace.
Thine earthly Sabbaths, Lord we love,
But there's a nobler rest above;
O that we might that rest attain,
From sin, from sorrow, and from pain.
Oh! long expected day, begin;
Dawn on this world of woe and sin;
Fain would we leave this weary road,
To sleep in death, and rest in God.
HYMN 77.
Mine eyes and my desire
Are ever to the Lord;
I love to plead His promises,
And rest upon His word.
When shall the sov'reign grace
