HYMNS TO THE TUNE "CORONATION."

C. M. Invitation to Praise.

1. COME, children, hail the Prince of peace, Obey the Saviour's call;

Come seek his face, and taste his grace,

And crown him Lord of all.

2. Ye lambs of Christ, your tribute bring,
Ye children, great and small,
Hosanna sing to Christ your King:
O crown him Lord of all.

3. This Jesus will your sins forgive,
O haste! before him fall;

For you he died, that you might live
To crown him Lord of all.

4. Let every people, every tribe,
Around this earthly ball,
To him all majesty ascribe,

And crown him Lord of all.

5. All hail, the Saviour, Prince of peace, Let saints before him fall;

137

Let sinners seek his pardoning grace, And crown him Lord of all.

C. M.

Jesus precious to the Believer.

1. JESUS, I love thy charming name; 'Tis music to mine ear;

Fain would I sound it out so loud, That heaven and earth might hear.

2. Yes, thou art precious to my soul, My treasure and my trust;

The world compared with thee is nought,
And all its treasure dust.

3. All that my loftiest thoughts can wish
In thee doth richly meet;
Not to my eyes is light so dear,
Nor friendship half so sweet.

4. Thy grace still dwells upon my heart,
And sheds its fragrance there,-
The noblest balm of all my wounds,
The cordial of my care.

1. COME, let us join our cheerful songs
With angels round the throne;
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
But all their joys are one.

2. Worthy the Lamb that died, they cry,
To be exalted thus !

Worthy the Lamb, our lips reply,
For he was slain for us.

3. Jesus is worthy to receive
Honor and power divine;

And blessings more than we can give
Be, Lord, for ever thine.

4 Let all that dwell above the sky,
And air, and earth, and seas,
Conspire to lift thy glories high,

And speak thine endless praise.

3. Come on board, O! "ship" for glory,
Be in haste-make up your mind!
For our vessel's weighing anchor,
You will soon be left behind!
All the storms, etc.

4. You have kindred over yonder,
On that bright and happy shore,
By-and-by we'll swell the number,
When the toils of life are o'er.

All the storms, etc.

5. Spread your sails, while heavenly breezes Gently waft our vessel on;

All on board are sweetly singing-
Free salvation is the song.
All the storms, etc.

6. When we all are safely anchored,
We will shout-our trials o'er!
We will walk about the city,
And we'll sing for evermore.
All the storms, etc.
