7 None ever ask'd the Lord to save, But in a formal way;

'Tis only God the Holy Ghost Čan teach a man to pray.

The same.

1 THE Spirit of the Lord must come
And give man praying breath;

The best that nature can perform
Is wrap'd in sin and death.
2 O come, ye helpless, thirsty poor,
Though destitute of money,
Come, take Christ's merits in your

hand And buy both milk and honey.

3 The merits of the Son of God

Will more than pay your way; That soul that pleads what Christ has done, Ah! that's the soul doth pray.

4 This is the money, this the price,
God gives to his elect;

The rich, self righteous pharisee,
Jehovah will reject.

5 Come then, the blessings are for you,
Who feel yourselves the worst;

The Fountain is design'd for you, Who feel an inward thirst. 6 A thirst for God, the living God,

Who long for milk and honey,
Come, take thy fill, poor thirsty soul,
Christ's merits is thy money.

The same.

1 COME, thirsty soul, the waters flow,
And thou art bid to come;

The Fountain is both full and free,
For ev'ry thirsty son.

2 What thirsty souls are thirsting for,
'Tis God designs to give;

"Tis God the Holy Ghost creates
A thirst for God within.

3 Come then, ye pennyless and poor,
Who have no price to pay,

'Tis beggars get the wine and milk,
This is the good old way.

4 Go thou, and plead atoning blood,
And thou shalt market well;

Christ's blood has pav'd your way to God,
And rescued you from hell.

5 Come, poor distressed thirsty soul,
The fountain is just by,

A thousand blessings you may ask,
For God will not deny.

Come to those living precious streams,
And drink and take thy fill;

What thou art thirsting for, come take,
It is thy Father's will.

As many as were ordained unto eternal life, believed, and no more, and no less. Acts xiii. 48.

1 As

many as the Lord has chose,

So many shall believe;

Not all the pow'r and craft of hell
Shall one of them deceive.

2 Those God has fore-ordain'd to save,
They must and shall believe;

But those who say 'tis man's free will,
Their very selves deceive.

3 For God eternally has fix'd

His love upon that man

Who owns salvation all of grace,
And worships God the Lamb.

4 'Tis not because the man believes,
That he is sav'd at all;

God had ordain'd he should believe,
Though ruin'd in the fall.

5 Though in our Adam nature dead,
And dead we must remain,

'Till God the Holy Ghost comes down,
'Till we are born again.

6 God has ordain'd it should be so,
It is Jehovah's plan,

To call his people by his grace,

And bring them to the Lamb.

7 Before God form'd his creature man,
Before the birth of day,

God had ordain'd redemption's plan,
And Christ the only Way.

8 That man that goes to God in time,
Was lov'd ere time began;

The Father's own eternal choice,
Redeem'd by God the Son.

Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.-0 the Privilege of Prayer, O that the professors of this day did but realize the blessing, to be taught by the Holy Ghost, what it is to pray in prayer. Matthew xviii. 20.

1 WHERE two or three together meet
In God's appointed way,

The Lord has pledg'd himself to hear
His children when they pray.
2 'Tis God who must dispose the soul
To seek the Lord by pray'r;

Wherever such poor souls are found,
The Lord is surely there.

3 The two or three within these walls,
Are in Jehovah's view,

Who often

passes multitudes,

To bless his little few.

4 May God the Comforter descend,
Like a refreshing dew,

That this may be a precious time,
To me, and each of you.

5 0 may our pray'rs ascend on high,
Perfum'd with Jesus' blood;

We have no other plea to make,
The mercy of our God.

6 What Jesus did on Calv'ry's cross,
The law requires no more;

This is the plea we bring this night,
And knock at mercy's door.

7 Our hearts lie open to our God,

He knows for what we come;
God won't deny that sinner's pray'r,
Whose plea is, God the Son.

When the Son of Man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory; and before him shall be gathered all nations; and he shall separate them one from anor ther, as a shepherd divideth the sheep from the goats, Matthew xxv. 31, 32.

1 O WHAT a world of wretchedness
Is this in which we dwell!

How many snares and crooked paths,
That lead direct to hell.

2 Then what's the way in which I go?
My soul, where art thou bound?
When Jesus comes to judge the world,
Oh! where shall I be found?

3 For, when the Son of Man shall come,
With his angelic throng,

The ransom'd of the Lord will shout
One everlasting song.

4 All nations of the world shall stand,
At that tremendous day,

When God will own his chosen sheep,
And cast the goats away.

5 O what a voice will then be heard?
My Father's chosen, come,

The kingdom is prepar'd for you,

Redeem'd by God the Son.

6 Then you who trust in Jesus now,
Will see him at that day.

Who bought you with his precious blood,
And wash'd your sins away.
7 Lord, grant that we may then appear
Amongst thy chosen sheep;

O help us to believe that now

In Christ we are complete.

8 That we may know that Christ is ours,
And will for ever be,

"Whom God had fix'd his love upon
From all eternity.

Salvation all of Grace.

Sanctified by God the Father, preserved and chosen in Jesus Christ, and called. Jude 1.

1 O GLORIOUS, blessed, charming plan! How can Jehovah save lost man?

The plan is laid, nay, more than laid,

'Tis finished, the debt is paid.

2 The Father gave unto his Son

All those he lov'd ere time begun;
The Son redeem'd them with his blood,
And reconcil'd them unto God.

3 These God the Holy Ghost renews,
Because he paid the law its dues;
