3 And as the rapid sands run down,
Our virtue still improve,
Till each receive the glorious crown
Of never-fading love.
93. L. M. Heber.
Close of Service.
1 Lord, now we part in thy blest name,
In which we here together came:
Grant us our few remaining days
To work thy will and spread thy praise.
2 Teach us in life and death to bless
The Lord our strength and righteousness;
And grant us all to meet above;
Then shall we better sing thy love.
94. 7s. M. Montgomery.
Praise from all Lands.
1 All ye nations, praise the Lord;
All ye lands, your voices raise;
Heaven and earth, with loud accord,
Praise the Lord, forever praise.
2 For his truth and mercy stand,
Past and present, and to be,
Like the years of his right hand,
Like his own eternity.
3 Praise him, ye who know his love;
Praise him from the depths beneath;
Praise him in the heights above;
Praise your Maker, all that breathe.
95. L. M. Watts.
The Joy and Blessing of Worship.
1 Lord, how delightful 'tis to see
A whole assembly worship thee;
At once they sing, at once they pray,
They hear of heaven and learn the way.
2 O, write upon our memory, Lord,
The text and doctrines of thy word:
That we may break thy laws no more,
But love thee better than before.
96. 8 & 7s. M. S. F. Adams.
Close of Worship.
1 Part in peace! is day before us?
Praise his name for life and light;
Are the shadows lengthening o'er us?
Bless His care who guards the night.
2 Part in peace! with deep thanksgiving,
Rendering, as we homeward tread,
Gracious service to the living,
Tranquil memory to the dead.
3 Part in peace! such are the praises
God, our Maker, loveth best;
Such the worship that upraises
Human hearts to heavenly rest.
97. L. M. Anonymous.
Close of Worship. Evening.
1 While now upon this Sabbath eve,
Thy house, Almighty God, we leave
'Tis sweet, as sinks the setting sun,
To think on all our duties done.
2 Oh! evermore may all our bliss
Be peaceful, pure, divine, like this;
And may each Sabbath, as it flies,
Fit us for joy beyond the skies.
98. 8 & 7s. M. Toplady's Coll.
Dismission.
1 Lord, dismiss us with thy blessing,
Hope and comfort from above;
Let us each, thy peace possessing,
Triumph in redeeming love.
2 Thanks we give, and adoration,
For thy Gospel's joyful sound;
May the fruits of thy salvation
In our hearts and lives abound.
99. L. M. Montgomery.
Sunday Evening.
