ure's frame. 4 At his approach the mountains flee, And seek a watery grave; The frighted sea makes haste away, And shrinks up every wave. 5 Thro' the wide air the weighty rocks Are swift as hailstones hurl'd: Who dares engage his fiery rage That shakes the solid world? 6 Yet, mighty God, thy sovereign grace Sits regent on the throne, The refuge of thy chosen race When wrath comes rushing down. 7 Thy hand shall on rebellious kings A fiery tempest pour, While we beneath thy sheltering wings Thy just revenge adore. *Hebrews 12:29. Hymn 1:43. [Supplement.] The Christian treasure, 1 Cor. 3. 21. 1 How vast the treasure we possess! How rich thy bounty, King of Grace! This world is ours, and worlds to come Earth is our lodge, and heaven our home. 2 All things are ours, the gifts of God; The purchase of a Saviour's blood: While the good Spirit shews us how To use and to improve them too. 3 If peace and plenty crown my days, They help, me, Lord, to speak thy praise!

Hymn 1:45. The last judgment, Rev. 21. 5-8. 1 See where the great incarnate God Fills a majestic throne, While from the skies his awful voice Bears the last judgment down. 2 ["I am the first, and I the last, "Thro' endless years the same; "I AM is my memor
