Internal Religion. I John i. 3-11. S. M.
I How can a sinner know
His sins on earth forgiven?
How can my gracious Saviour show
My name inscribed in heaven?
2 What we have felt and seen
With confidence we tell;
And publish to the sons of men
The signs infallible.
3 We who in Christ believe
That he for us hath died,
We all his unknown peace receive,
And feel his blood applied.
4 Exults our rising soul,
Disburden'd of her load,
And swells unutterably full
Of glory and of God.
5 His love surpassing far
The love of all beneath,
We find within our hearts, and dare
The pointless darts of death.
6 Stronger than death or hell
The sacred power we prove;
And conqu'rors of the world we dwell
In heaven, who dwell in love.
C. Wesley.
207 Filial Trust. S. M.
[Tune, Shirland, page 102. S. M.J
I I lift my soul to God,
My trust is in his name;
Let not my foes that seek my blood
Still triumph in my shame.
2 From the first dawning light
Till the dark evening rise,
For thy salvation, Lord! I wait
With ever-longing eyes.
3 Remember all thy grace,
And lead me in thy truth;
Forgive the sins of riper days,
And follies of my youth.
4 The Lord is just and kind;
The meek shall learn his ways,
And every humble sinner find
The methods of his grace.
5 For his own goodness' sake
He saves my soul from shame;
He pardons, though my guilt be great,
Through my Redeemer's name.
Watts.
207 b The sure foundation. S. M
[Words Ed.]
I In even- trying hour
My soul to Jesus flies;
I trust in his almighty power
When swelling billows rise.
2 His comforts bear me up;
I trust a faithful God;
The sure foundation of my hope
Is in mv Saviour's blood.
3 Loud hallelujahs sing
To our Redeemer's name,
In joy or sorrow—life or death
His love is still the same.
Coombs.
