16 EXHORTING SINNERS TO RETURN TO GOD.

The seeing eye, the feeling sense, The mystic joys of penitence:

8 The godly fear, the pleasing smart, The meltings of a broken heart; The tears that tell your sins forgiven, The sighs that waft your souls to heaven:

1

9 The guiltless shame, the sweet distress; The' unutterable tenderness; The genuine, meek humility;

The wonder," Why such love to me!"

10 The' o'erwhelming power of saving grace, The sight that veils the seraph's face; The speechless awe that dares not move, And all the silent heaven of love.

HYMN 10.

10's& 11's.

YE

VE thirsty for God, To Jesus give ear, And take, through his ood, A power to draw near;

His kind invitation, Ye sinners, embrace, Accepting salvation, Salvation by grace.

2 Sent down from above, Who governs the skies, In vehement love To sinners he cries, " Drink into my Spirit, Who happy would be, And all things inherit, By coming to me." 3 0 Saviour of all, Thy word we believe, And come at thy call, Thy grace to receive: The blessing is given Wherever thou art, The earnest of heaven Is love in the heart. 4 To us, at thy feet, The Comforter give,

Who gasp to admit Thy Spirit, and live; The weakest believers Acknowledge for thine, And fill us with rivers Of water divine!
