still March on my heavenly way. 4 Give me, O Lord, thy early grace, Nor let my soul complain That the young morning of my day Has all been spent in vain! Song 26. _An Evening Song_. 1 And now another day is gone, I'll sing my Maker's praise! My comforts every hour make known His providence and grace. 2 But how my childhood runs to waste My sins how great their sum! Lord, give me pardon for the past, And strength for days to come. 3 I lay my body down to sleep, Let angels guard my head; And, through the hours of darkness, keep Their watch around my head. 4 With cheerful heart I close mine eyes, Since thou wilt not remove; And in the morning let me rise Rejoicing in thy love. Song 27. _For the Lord's Day Morning_. 1 This is the day when Christ arose So early from the dead: Why should I my eyelids close, And waste my hours in bed? 2 This is the day when Jesus broke The powers of death and hell; And shall I still wear Satan's yoke, And love my sins so well? 3 To-day, with pleasure, Christians meet, To pray, and hear thy Word; And I would go with cheerful feet To learn thy will, O Lord! 4 I'll leave my sport, to read and pray, And so prepare for heaven: O may I love this blessed day The best of all the seven! Song 28. _For Lord's Day Evening_. 1 Lord, how delightful `tis to see A whole assembly worship thee! At once they sing, at once they pray; They hear of heaven, and learn the way. 2 I have been there, and still would go 'Tis like a little heaven below! Not all my pleasure and my play Should tempt me to forget this day. 3 O write upon my memory, Lord, The text and doctrines of thy Word, That I may break thy laws no more, But love thee better than before! 4 With thoughts of Christ and things divine Fill up this foolish heart of mine: That, hoping pardon through his blood, I may lie down, and wake with God. The TEN COMMANDMENTS out of the Old Testament put into short Rhime for Children. Exod. 20. 1. Thou shalt have no more Gods but me. 2. Before no idol bow thy knee. 3. Take not the Name of God in vain: 4. Nor dare the Sabbath Day profane. 5. Give both thy parents honour due. 6. Take heed that thou no murder do. 7. Abstain from words and deeds unclean: 8. Nor steal, though thou art poor and mean. 9. Nor make a wilful lie, nor love it. 10. What is thy neighbour's, dare not covet. The Sum of the Commandments out of the New Testament. Matt
