When all thy mercies, O my God
When blooming youth is suatched away
When dread misfortune's tempests rise
When, fainting in the sultry waste
When gloomy thoughts and boding fears
When God revealed his gracious name
When I can read my title clear
When I survey life's varied scene
When I survey the wondrous cross.
When Israel through the desert passed
When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay
When Jesus, our great Master, came
When, marshalled on the nightly plain
When my astonished eyes behold
When, 'reft of all, and hopeless care
When sickness shakes the frame
When strangers stand and hear me tell
When, streaming from the eastern skies.
When we survey this world

When will the eyelids of that morn
Wherefore should man, frail child of clay
While God, my Father's near
While I keep silence and conceal
While on the verge of life I stand
While some in folly's pleasure roll
While thee I seek, protecting Power
While with ceaseless course the sun
Why does your face, ye humble souls
Why do we mourn departed friends
Why should the world's alluring toys
Why should we start and fear to die
With cheerful voices rise and sing
With one consent let all the earth
With sacred joy we lift our eyes
With songs and honours sounding loud
With strange surprise the cross I view
With warm delight and grateful joy
Would you behold the works of God
Worthy the Lamb of boundless sway

Ye angels that surround the throne
Ye favoured children of the Lord
Ye golden lamps of heaven, farewell
Ye humble souls, approach your God
Ye humble souls who seek the Lord
Ye realms below the skies
Ye servants of Christ

.

[ocr errors]

Ye servants of the Lord
Ye sons of men, with joy record
Ye tribes of Adam, join

Ye wretched, hungry, starving poor

Zeal is that pure and heavenly flame
