I O God, mine in - most soul con - vert, And deep - ly on my thought-ful heart

I Light of those whose dreary dwell-ing Borders on the shades of death,

Come, and by Thy love's reveal -ing, Dis - si - pate the clouds be-neath. A-MEN.

O why these years of wait-ing here, These ages of delay ?

II2 SAXBY L. M.

Rev. Timothy R. Matthews (1826- )

I Come, gra- cious Spir - it, heaven-ly Dove, With light and comfort from above;

b3

Be Thou our Guard-ian, Thou our Guide; O'er ev-ery thought and step pre-side. A - MEN.

2 The light of truth to us display,
And make us know and choose Thy way:
Plant holy fear in every heart,

3

That we from God may ne'er depart.

Lead us to holiness, the road

Which we must take to dwell with God:

Lead us to Christ, the living Way,
Nor let us from His pastures stray.

4 Lead us to God, our final rest,
To be with Him for ever blest :
Lead us to heaven, that we may share
Fulness of joy for ever there.

Rev. Simon Browne, 1720: alt. Ash and Evans Coll. 1769, and elsewhere

O

Then shall we know and taste and feel The joys that can-not be expressed. AMEN.
