1133, 1134 PART V.- SECOND SUPPLEMENT. 3 Guilt from the troubled heart remove,

Constrain the soul, by love, to love,

Release from slavish fear;

Then, though in tents of sin we groan, We'll sing like those around thy throne, Till thou shalt bring us there.

KELLY.

" The Gospel,-the power of God unto salvation."- Rom. i. 16,

MAY the power that brings salvation, Now exerted in the word,

By its quick'ning operation, Life impart and joy afford! Life to sinners,

Joy to those who know the Lord.

2 Hark, the voice of love, proclaiming Mercy through a Saviour's blood; Vain the schemes of human framing, This alone is own'd of God;

' Tis the gospel

Points to heaven, and shows the road.

8. 8. 6.

BROWNE.( altered.) " Lead me in thy truth."- Ps. xxv. 5; Isa. xxv. 9; Gen. xlix, 18. COME, gracious Spirit, heavenly Dove, With light and comfort from above, Our waiting souls set free;

Be thou our guardian, thou our guide, O'er every thought and step preside, And draw us after thee.

2 Conduct us safe, conduct us far From every sin and hurtful snare, That we may not thee grieve; Apply thy word that rules must give, And teach us lessons how to live,

And firmly to believe.
