396 The Lord’s Prayer.

Chant.

Our Father who art in heaven, | Hallowed | be thy | name, ||
Thy kingdom come; thy will be done in | earth, as it | is in | heaven,

2 Give us this | day our | daily bread, ||
And forgive us our debts, as | we for- | give our | debtors.

3 Lead us not into temptation, but de- | liver | us from | evil; ||
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for | ever. | A- | men.

I.  Tim. 2:8. (1168)

Come at the morning hour,
  Come, let us kneel and pray;
Pray’r is the Christian pilgrim’s staff
  To walk with God all day.

2 At noon beneath the Rock
  Of Ages, rest and pray;
Sweet is that shelter from the sun
  In weary heat of day.

3 At evening, in thy home,
  Around its altar, pray;
And finding there the house of God,
  With heaven then close the day.

4 When midnight veils our eyes,
  Oh, it is sweet to say,
I sleep, but my heart waketh, Lord! 
  With thee to watch and pray.

The Throne of Grace. (801)

Behold the throne of grace! 
  The promise calls me near;
There Jesus shows a smiling face,
  And waits to answer prayer.

2 That rich atoning blood,
  Which sprinkled round I see,
Provides, for those who come to God,
  An all-prevailing plea.

3 My soul! ask what thou wilt;
  Thou canst not be too bold;
Since his own blood for thee he spilt,
  What else can he withhold?

4 Thine, image, Lord! bestow,
  Thy presence and thy love;
I ask to serve thee here below,
  And reign with thee above.

5 Teach me to live by faith;
  Conform my will to thine;
Let me victorious be in death,
  And then in glory shine.

     John Newton, 1779.

399 Tell It to Jesus Alone.  P.M.

The Sympathizing Friend.

Are you weary, are you heavy-hearted? 
  Tell it to Jesus. 
Are you grieving over joys departed? 
  Tell it to Jesus alone.

Cho.—­Tell it to Jesus, tell it to Jesus,
        He is a Friend that’s well known;
      You have no other such a friend or brother! 
        Tell it to Jesus alone.

2 Do the tears flow down your cheeks unbidden? 
  Tell it to Jesus. 
Have you sins that to man’s eye are hidden? 
  Tell it to Jesus alone.

3 Do you fear the gath’ring clouds of sorrow? 
  Tell it to Jesus. 
Are you anxious what shall be to-morrow? 
  Tell it to Jesus alone.

4 Are you troubled at the tho’t of dying? 
  Tell it to Jesus. 
For Christ’s coming kingdom are you sighing? 
  Tell it to Jesus alone.
