God's Anointed shine; Justice and truth his court maintain, With love and power divine. 8 Here let him hold a lasting throne; And as his kingdom grows, Fresh honours shall adorn his crown, And shame confound his foes. Psalm 133:1. C. M. Brotherly love. 1 Lo! what an entertaining sight Are brethren that agree, Brethren, whose cheerful hearts unite In bands of piety! 2 When streams of love from Christ the spring Descend to every soul, And heavenly peace, with balmy wing, Shades and bedews the whole; 3 'Tis like the oil divinely sweet, On Aaron's reverend head, The trickling drops perfum'd his feet, And o'er his garments spread. 4 'Tis pleasant as the morning dews That fall on Zion's hill, Where God his mildest glory shews, And makes his grace distil.

Repeat the first stanza to complete the tune. Psalm 134. Daily and nightly devotion. 1 Ye that obey th' immortal King, Attend his holy place, Bow to the glories of his power, And bless his wondrous grace; 2 Lift up your hands by morning-light, And send your souls on high; Raise your admiring thoughts by night Above the starry sky. 3 The God of Zion cheers our hearts With rays of quickening grace; The God that spread the
