5 Weak is the effort of my heart,
And cold my warmest thought;
But, when I see thee as thou art,
I'll praise thee as I ought.
6 Till then I would thy love proclaim
With every fleeting breath;
And may the music of thy name
Refresh my soul in death.
Nuhguhmoowin 14. C. M.
"_How sweet the name of Jesus sounds._"
Ka gate me noo tah gwud e ne
Je sus oo de noo z'win.
Me ewh wan je me noo da ad
Owh duh ya bwa yan dung.
2 Me ewh wan je pe zaun uh yaud
Owh ma goosh kah dan dung;
Owh a ya koo zid e ne ne
Oo dun wa be e goon.
3 Nin ke che sah ge toon, Je sus,
Ewh ke de noo zoo win,
Me suh ewh nind ah zhe bik oom,
E mah koo kah zoo yaun.
4 Je sus nin de nuh wa mah gun,
Nin ke che Oo ge mom,

Ne mah moo yuh wa win.
5 Shah gwe we muh gud ewh nin da,
Tuh ke sin koo kuh ya;
Uh pe dush ween wah buh me naun,
Quuh yuk nin guh nuh gum.
6 Ke guh ke che min wah je min
Nuh nauzh goo ewh uh pe;
Me nik ka be mah de ze yaun,
Pa shoo we je we shin.
Hymn 15. 7's.
"_Hark! My soul it is the Lord._"
Hark! my soul, it is the Lord;
'Tis thy Saviour; hear his word;
Jesus speaks, and speaks to thee:
"Say, poor sinner, lov'st thou me?"
2 I deliver'd thee when bound,
And when bleeding, heal'd thy wound;
Sought thee wandering, set thee right,
Turned thy darkness into light.
3 Can a woman's tender care
Cease towards the child she bare?
Yes, she may forgetful be,
Yet will I remember thee.
4 Mine is an unchanging love,
Higher than the heights above,
Deeper than the depths beneath,
Free and faithful, strong as death.
5 Thou shalt see my glory soon,
When the work of grace is done:
Partner of my throne shalt be,
"Say, poor sinner, lov'st thou me?"
6 Lord, it is my chief complaint
That my love is cold and faint:
Yet I love thee, and adore;
O for grace to love thee more.
Nuhguhmoowin 15. 7's.
"_Hark! My soul it is the Lord._"
Be zin dun, O nin je chaug

"Ka gate nuh goo ke sah geh?"

Ke guh me quan 'min ween neen.
4 "Ne sa ge e wa win suh
Ah pe je ish pah muh gud,
Ah pe je de me muh gud,
Kuh ya dush ke che soon gun.
