To righteous men the righteous Lord His blessing will extend, And with His favour all His saints, As with a shield, defend.

II. C.

P. 38. St. Ann's.

6.

LMy voice ascending high;

To Thee will I direct my prayer, To Thee lift up mine eye. Oft to Thy house will I resort, To taste Thy mercies there; I will frequent Thy holy court, And worship in Thy fear.

ORD! in the morning Thou shalt hear

Oh, may Thy Spirit guide my feet In ways of righteousness, Make every path of duty straight And plain before my face!

All men that love and fear Thy name Shall see their hopes fulfill'd; Almighty God will compass them With favour as a shield.

P. 47. St. Magnus.

IN

N tender mercy, not in wrath, Rebuke us, gracious God! Lest, if Thy whole displeasure rise We fall beneath Thy rod. Touch'd by Thy Spirit's quick'ning power, Our load of guilt we feel;

The wounds Thy Spirit hath unclosed, Oh, let that Spirit heal!

Oh! come with speed, ere life expire, And show Thy power to save; For who shall sing Thy name in death, Or praise Thee in the grave?
