he Saviour made known When she of Samaria found him By the Patriarch's well, sitting weary, alone, With the stillness of noontide around him. 3 He having once entered hath shown us the way, O God! how to worship before Thee, Not with the vain forms of that earlier day, But in spirit and truth to adore Thee. 21. 7s. M. Wesleyan. The Light of Life. 1 Light of life, seraphic fire! Love divine, Thyself impart: Every fainting soul inspire; Enter every drooping heart: Every mournful spirit cheer, Scatter all our doubt and gloom; Father, in Thy grace appear, To Thy human temples come! 2 Come in this accepted hour, Bring Thy heavenly kingdom in; Fill us with Thy glorious power, Rooting out the seeds of sin: Nothing more can we require, We can rest in nothing less: Be Thou all our heart's desire, All our joy and all our peace. 22. 7s. M. Bowring. Every Good Gift from the Father. 1 Father! Thy paternal care Has my guardian been, my guide: Every hallowed wish and prayer Has Thy hand of love supplied: Thine is every thought of bliss, Left by hours and days gone by; Every hope Thine offspring is, Beaming from futurity. 2 Every sun of splendid ray; Every moon that shines serene; Every morn that welcomes day; Every evening's twilight scene; Every hour which wisdom brings; Every incense at Thy shrine; These,--and all life's holiest things, And its fairest,--all are Thine. 3 And for all, my hymns shall rise Daily to Thy gracious throne: Thither let my asking eyes Turn unwearied, righteous One! Through life's strange vicissitude There reposing all my care; Trusting still, through ill and good, Fixed, and cheered, and counselled there. 23. L. M. Frothingham. For Spiritual Influences. 1 O God, whose presence glows in all Within, around us, and above! Thy word we bless, Thy name we call, Whose word is Truth, whose name is Love. 2 That truth be with the heart believed Of all who seek this sacred place; With power proclaimed, in peace received
