The praises of my God shall still
My heart and tongue employ.
2 O magnify the Lord with me,
With me exalt his Name;
When in distress to him I called,
He to my rescue came. A-men.
3 The hosts of God encamp around
The dwellings of the just;
Deliverance he affords to all
Who on his succor trust.
4 For God preserves the souls of those
Who on his truth depend;
To them and their posterity
His blessing shall descend.
5 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
The God whom we adore,
Be glory, as it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.
Amen.

Through all the changing scenes of life
Jesus, thy boundless love to me

No thought can reach, no tongue declare;
Unite my thankful heart to thee,
And reign without a rival there.
Thine wholly, thine alone I am;
Be thou alone my constant flame.
2 O grant that nothing in my soul
May dwell, but thy pure love alone;
O may thy love possess me whole,
My joy, my treasure, and my crown;
Strange fires far from my soul remove;
May every act, word, thought, be love.
3 O Love, how cheering is thy ray!
All pain before thy presence flies;
Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away,
Where'er thy healing beams arise.
O Jesus, nothing may I see,
Nothing desire or seek, but thee.
4 Unwearied, may I this pursue,
Dauntless, to this high prize aspire;
Hourly within my soul renew
This holy flame, this heavenly fire;
And day and night be all my care
To guard this sacred treasure there. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. PETERSBURG (CHERUBIC HYMN)

the darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away.
Change and decay in all around I see.
O Lord who changes not, abide with me.
3 I need your presence every passing hour.
What but your grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like yourself my guide and strength can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me.
4 I fear no foe with you at hand to bless,
though ills have weight, and tears their bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, your victory?
I triumph still, if you abide with me.
5 Hold now your Word before my closing eyes.
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies.
Heaven's morning breaks and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

Hasted through the circling year,
Many souls their race have run,
Never more to meet us here;
Fixed in an eternal state,
They have done with all below;
We a little longer wait,
But how little--none can know.
2 As the winged arrow flies
Speedily the mark to find;
As the lightning from the skies
Darts, and leaves no trace behind;
Swiftly thus our fleeting days
Bear us down life's rapid stream;
Upward, Lord, our spirits raise;
All below is but a dream.
3 Thanks for mercies past receive;
Pardon of our sins renew;
Teach us henceforth how to live
With eternity in view;
Bless Thy word to young and old;
Fill us with a Saviour's love;
And when life's short tale is told,
May we dwell with Him above. Languages: English Tune Title: BENEVENTO
