2 So many ways Thou hast, dear Lord, My longing heart to fill,

Thy lovely world, Thy spoken word, The doing Thy sweet will,

The touch of dear hands on my head,
The thought of loved ones gone!

4 Lead me by many paths, dear Lord,
But always in Thy way,

And help me make my earth a heaven,
Each day Communion Day.

By Christ redeemed,in Christ re-stored, We keep the memory adored,

And show the death of our dear Lord Until He come. A-men.

2 His body, broken in our stead,
Is here in this memorial bread;
And so our faith and love are fed
Until He come.

3 His fearful drops of agony,

His life-blood shed for us, we see:
The wine shall tell the mystery

Until He come.

4 And thus that dark betrayal night,
With the last advent we unite,
The shame, the glory, - by this rite,
Until He come.

5 Oh, blessed hope! with this elate
Let not our hearts be desolate,
But strong in faith, in patience wait
Until He come.

GEORGE RAWSON, 1857

Ped.

(Or to Victoria, No. 421)

2 Come, ever-blessèd Spirit, come,
And make Thy servants' hearts Thy home;
May each a living temple be,
Hallowed for ever, Lord, to Thee;
Enrich that temple's holy shrine
With sevenfold gifts of grace divine,
With wisdom, light and knowledge bless,
Strength, counsel, fear and godliness.

3 O Trinity in Unity,

One only God, and Persons Three,
In whom, thro' whom, by whom we live,
To Thee we praise and glory give;
O grant us so to use Thy grace,
That we may see Thy glorious face,
And ever with the heavenly host,
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

2 Anoint them prophets! Make their ears attent
To Thy divinest speech; their hearts awake
To human need; their lips make eloquent
To assure the right, and every evil break.

3 Anoint them priests! Strong intercessors they
For pardon, and for charity and peace!
Ah, if with them the world might, now astray,
Pass into Christ's pure life of sacrifice!

4 Make them apostles! Heralds of Thy cross,

Forth may they go to tell all realms Thy grace;
Inspired of Thee, may they count all but loss,
And stand at last with joy before Thy face.

5 O mighty age of prophet-kings, return!

O truth, O faith, enrich our urgent time!
Lord Jesus Christ, again with us sojourn;
A weary world awaits Thy reign sublime!

2 Thy will was in the builders' thought;
Thy hand unseen amidst us wrought;
Through mortal motive, scheme, and plan,
Thy wise eternal purpose ran.

3 In weakness and in want we call
On Thee for whom the heavens are small;
Thy glory is Thy children's good,
Thy joy Thy tender fatherhood.

4 O Father, deign these walls to bless;
Fill with Thy love their emptiness;
And let their door a gateway be

To lead us from ourselves to Thee!
