Wood descend in majesty, WHEN on Sinai's top I see To proclaim his holy law, p All my spirit sinks with awe. g 2 When in ecstasy sublime, Tabor's glorious height I climb, In the too transporting light, p Darkness rushes o'er my sight. -3 When on CALVARY I rest, God in flesh made manifest, o Shines in my Redeemer's face, Full of beauty, truth, and grace. p 4 Here I would for ever stay, Weep and gaze my soul away: Thou art heaven on earth to me, Lovely, mournful Calvary. Montgomery HYMN 255. C. M. Stephens.

HYMN 256. C. M. York. Mentz. [b] ACCORDING to thy gracious word, In meek humility, This will I do, my dying Lord, g 2 Thy body, broken for my sake, And thus remember thee. -3 Gethsemane can I forget? s 1 4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes, O Lamb of God, my sacrifice! I must remember thee : 5 Remember thee, and all thy pains Yea, while a breath, a pulse remains, Will I remember thee. 6 And when these failing lips grow dumb, And mind and memory flee, When thou shalt in thy kingdom come, Jesus, remember me.

In one great chorus join,— Join all on earth, rejoice and sing- HYMN 260. H. M. Haddam. [*] 1 COME, every pious heart That loves the Saviour's name, Your noblest power exert To celebrate his fame; Tell all above, and all below, The debt of love to him you owe. 2 He left his starry crown, And laid his robes aside; And wept, and bled, and died: Up through the sky the conqueror rode, Yet tell us how we may Our gratitude approve : Our hearts-our all to thee we give: The gift though small, do thou receive.
