The Kinth Wour. The hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.

GOD, of all the Strength and Power, Who dost, Thyself unmoved, cach hour rough all its changes guide the day, From early morn to evening's ray;

Brighten life's eventide with light That ne'er shall set in gloom of night, Till we a holy death attain,

And everlasting glory gain.

Almighty FArHER, hear our cry

Through JEsUS CHRIST our LoRp most High, Who with the Horv GHosT and Thee

Doth live and reign eternally. Amen.

Ebvening. ** The Lord was myf stay.

STRENGTH and Stay upholding all creation, Who ever dost Thyself unmoved abide,

Xet day by day the light in due gradation

From hour to hour through all its changes guide;

Grant to life's day a calm unclouded ending,

An eve untouched py shadows of decay

The brightness of a holy death-bed blending

With dawning glories of the eternal day.

Hear us, O FATHER, gracious and forgiving,

Through JESUS CHRIST Thy co-eternal WoRp,

Wno, with the HoLv GHoOST, by all things living

Now and to endless ages art adored. Amen.

S now the sun's declining rays At eventide descend, 8o life's brief day is sinking down To its appointed end.

LonRp, on the Cross Thine Arms were stretched To draw Thy people nigh; O grant us then that Cross to love, nd in those Arms to die.

All Slorr to the FArHfER be,

All glory te the SoN,

All glory, HoLx GHoOsE, to Thee,

ile endless ages run. Amen. (65
