MAR 1882 thsologigal/ It is believed that this book will meet a w^it^tflilSn has long been felt by Superintendents of Sabbath Schools, and others who select hymns and music for children to sing. There have been two difficulties with most of the Sabbath School hymn books that have been published : First, the hymns have been " too old " — above the comprehension of young minds : second, the music has been either too difficult, too tame, or has been arranged so high as to be entirely beyond the reach of children's voices. It will be found, upon examination, that these difficul- ties have been avoided in this book. A large proportion of the tunes have been composed and compiled expressly for the words ; and the publisher and editor are both greatly indebted to S. B. Ball, Esq., one of the most popular and successful teachers of vocal music in Boston, for very valuable aid in this department. PUBLISBEB.

TO THB TUME OF CHILD'S PRATER. Page 26. 1 Deep in the wood, where none But cruel huntsmen roam, A rose most beautiful Kloomed in its humble home. I pitied the lone flower, With none its sweets to share, And ne'er a passer by To say " thou'rt wondrous fair !** And then I said : tell me, oh flowery queen, Why Grod has set thee here, to bloom unseen ? 2 Here, as I silent sat. The forest birds drew nijih, The squirrel ventured forth, Ami frisking, passed me by ; And e'eu the rabbit leaped Forth from his hidden bower ; Yet none of them would stay To gaze on that sweet flower. Again I asked her if she'd tell me why God placed her there, unseen to bud and die ? 8 At length, she turned to me With such a Heavenly look, And from her honied cells A thousand odors shook — " I will" — and then in tones As sweet as childhood's said, " I bloom alone, because Me for himself God made ; And 'tis enough (say, is it so with thee ?) To know that God is pleased to look on me." # A LITTLE WHILE, to the tune, 1 A little while, saith yonder sun. And my care«»r of light is run ; The moon sends back the sad reply. And all the stars that deck the sky — *' A little while." 2 The cedars of Mount Lebanon, The miiihfy rivers flowins on, The teeinins earth, the circling years, Upf^n them all this word appear ••Aliitle while." " HE KEEPETn ME." Page 69. 3 Oh thou, vain man ! who look'st abroad Upon these mighty works of God, Canst thou from death exemption claim? Ah, no ! the word is still the same — "A little while." 4 Child, in the Sabbath School, though now The flush of life is on thy brow, Yet, gaily, as thou passest by, Plainly the warning I descry— '• A litt*e while.." 63 "LOVEST TIIOU MET CMRIST. 1.

'Twere vain the ocean depths to sound, Or pierce to either pole. 2 The world can never give The bliss for which we sigh ; 'Tis not the whole of life to live, Nor all of death to die. 8 Beyond this vale of tears There is a life above, Unmeasured by the flight of years; And all that life is love. 4 There is a death whose pang Outlasts the fleeting breath ; O, what eternal horrors hang Around the second death ! Lord God of truth and grace, Teach us that death to shun. Lest we be banished from Thy face, ▲nd evermore undoue. 59 CM. [AaLINOTOX. 1 Trere is a line, by us unseen, That crosses every path. The hidden boundary between God's patience and His wrath. 2 To pass that limit is to die, To die as if by stealth ; It does not quench the l)eaming eye. Nor pale the glow of health. 3 The conscience may be still at ease. The spirit light and gay ; That which is pleasing still may please, And care be thrust away. 4 O, where is this mysterious bourne By which our path is crossed ; Beyond which God himself hath sworn That he who goes is lost ? 6 An answer from the skies is sent,— *' Ye that from God depart. While it is called to-day, repent, And harden not your heart." 60 C. M.

But they have left an aching void The world can never fill. 4 Return, O holy Dove ; return. Sweet Messenger of rest ; I hate the sins that made Thee mourn. And drove Thee from my breast. 6 The dearest idol 1 have known, Whate'er that idol he. Help ine to te;ir it from Thy throne.

Yet who, that knows the worth of prayer, But wshes to be often there ? 2 Prayer makes the darkened cloud withdraw; Prayer climbs the ladder Jacob saw. Gives exercise to faith and love, Brings every blessing from above. 3 Restraining prayer, we cease to fight ; Praver makes the Christiiin's armor bright; And Satan trembles when he sees The weakest saint upon his knees. 4 Have you no words ? Ah, think again ; Words flow apace when you complain. And fill a fellow-creature's ear With the sad tale of all your care. 6 Were half the breath thus vainly spent To heaven in supplication sent, Your cheerful song would oftener be, *' Hear what th« Lord hath doov tot dm " 71 C.

Why should i cleave to things below. And let my God, my Saviour, go ? 3 Call me away from flesh and sense ; One sovereign word can draw me thence ; I would obey the voice divine, And all inferior joys resign. 4 Be earth with all her scene withdrawn ; Let noise and vam'ty be gone; In secret silence of the mind, My heaven, and there my God, I find. 74 C.

P. 21. 1 Prater is the soul's sincere desire, Uttered or unexpressed, The motion of a hidden fire That trembles in the breast. 2 Prayer is the hurden of a sigh. The falling of a tear. The upward glancing of an eye. When none but God is near. 3 Praver is the simplest form of speech That infant lips can try ; Prayer the sublimcst strains that reach The Majesty on high. 4 Pr.iyer is the contrite sinner's voice, lietuming from his ways ; While angels in their songs rejoice. And cry, " Behold, he prays." 6 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath. The Christian's native air, Bis watchword at the gates of death; He enters heaven with prayer. 80 S. M. [BoTUTOW. p.
