 will grow better by use. 
 
 WITHIN REACH OF ALL.

 Editions. Thus the choicest songs are brought within the reach of even the poorest Mis-

 ony which characterizes the writings of any one author. 
 
 MODERN FAVORITES, 
 
 Embracing two hundred of the most popular tunes which the Christian public, and 
 especially the rising generation, will ever love and hold dear. A few are mentioned be-

 substantial hymns of sanctuary worship, and the children, thus growing up in their use, 
 can also praise God with tlie great congregation.

 above points, or at least a glance at the Table of Contents, which I hereby respectfully 
 3ubmit to the Christian public?

 1 Holy Spirit, faithful Guide, 
 Ever near the Christian's side ; 
 Gently lead us by the hand, 
 Pilgrims in a desert land. 
 Weary souls fore'er rejoice, 
 
 While they hear that sweetest voice ; 
 Whisp'ring softly, wand'rer, come ! 
 Follow Me, I'll guide thee home. 
 
 2 Ever present, ti'uest friend, 
 Ever near. Thine aid to lend, 
 Leave us not to doubt and fear, 
 Groping on in darkness drear. 
 When the storms are raging sore. 
 Hearts grow faint and hopes givei o'er 
 Whisper softly, wanderer, come ! 
 EoUow Me, I'll guide thee home. 
 
 3 When our days of toil shall cease. 
 Waiting still for sweet release, 
 ISTothing left but heaven and prayer, 
 Wondering if our names are there ; 
 Wading deep the dismal flood. 
 Pleading naught but Jesus' blood ; 
 Whisper softly, wanderer come ! 
 Follow Me, I'll guide thee home. 
 
 ISTo. 3. 
 
 1 While we walk with God in light, 
 God our hearts doth still unite : 
 Dearest fellowship we prove, — 
 Fellowship in Jesus' love : 
 Sweetly each, with each combined, 
 In the bonds of duty join' d, 
 
 Feels the cleansing blood applied, — 
 Daily feels that Christ hath died. 
 
 2 Still, O Lord, our faith increase; 
 Cleanse from all unrighteousness; 
 Thee the' unholy cannot see; 
 Make, make us meet for Thee : 
 
 Every vile affection kill ; 
 Root'out every seed of ill; 
 Utterly abolish sin ; 
 Write Thy law of love within. 
 
 TsTo. 3 
 
 1 Oh ! do not let the word depart, 
 
 And close thine eyes against the 
 
 light; 
 Poor sinner, harden not thy heart ; 
 Thou wouldst be sav'd — Why not 
 
 to-night ? 
 
 2 To-morrow's sun may never rise 
 
 To bless thy long-deluded sight ; 
 This is the time ! oh, then be wise ! 
 Thou wouldst be saved — Why not 
 to-night ? 
 
 3 The world has nothing left to give — 
 
 It has no new, no pure delight ; 
 Oh, try the life which Christians live ! 
 Thou wouldst be saved — Why not 
 to-night ? 
 
 4 Our God in pity lingers still. 
 
 And wilt thou thus His love requite ? 
 Henounce at length thy stubborn will, 
 Thou wouldst be saved — Why not 
 to-night ? 
 Our blessed Lord refuses none 
 
 Who would to Him their souls unite ; 
 Then be the work of grace begun ! 
 Thou wouldst be saved — Why not 
 to-night ?

 1 There is a fountain filled with blood, 
 
 DrawTi from Immanuel's veins, 
 And sinners plunged beneath that 
 flood 
 Lose all their guilty stains. 
 
 2 The dying thief rejoiced to see 
 
 That fountain in his day ; 
 And there may I, though vile as he, 
 Wash all my sins away. 
 
 3 E'er since by faith I saw the stream 
 
 Thy flowing wounds supply, 
 Redeeming love has been my theme. 
 And shall be till I die. 
 
 4 Then in a nobler, sweeter song 
 
 I'll sin^ Thy power to save. 
 When this poor, lispering, stammering 
 Lies silent in the grave. [tongue

 Arise, and run the heavenly road ; 
 
 Wouldst thou be blest; then, pilgrim,

 To leave destruction's dread abode. 
 
 Cho. (O come !) O come ! the Saviour calls, 
 
 "I am the way, the truth the life ;'' 
 
 Come hither, burdened soul to Me. 
 
 2 Oh, tell me howl oh, tell me where! 
 The way I long have sought to know ; 
 But fear the ^uilt and sin I bear 
 
 Will sink me m the depths of woe. Cho.

 A light from yonder distant hill ? [see 
 On, Pilgiim, on ! it shines for thee, 
 With steady course pursue it still. Cho.

 A light from i^onder distant hill; 
 
 Oh, tell me, does it shine for me? 
 Hail, glorious light ! I will, I will ! Cho.

 Who seek to stay me as I fly ; 
 
 My ears against their call I close,

 1 I now have found abiding rest. 
 
 For which I long was sighing: 
 Now on my Saviour's faithful breast 
 
 My weary head is lyin^ : 
 This is the place where sm no more, 
 
 And death and hell alarm me ; 
 I now am safe, by Jesus' power. 
 
 From all that else would harm me. 
 
 2 He whispers me — "I'm wholly thine, 
 
 And thou art mine forever ; 
 Heuceforth all fear and doubt resiga, 
 
 Confiding in my favour ; 
 Thy every want shall find supply 
 
 From my exhaustless treasure ; 
 I'U fill thy spirit with my joy. 
 
 The pledge of endless pleasure." 
 
 3 From Jesus and His love, who now. 
 
 By terrors to divide me, 
 Mv great and many sins would show ! 
 
 His wounds from vengeance hide me : 
 Mv sins are great — I'll not despair. 
 
 Though conscience, too, arraigns me, 
 ISTor doubt my Saviour's watchful 
 care — 
 
 His arms of love sustain me. 
 
 4 I thauk thee, God's beloved Son, 
 
 Thy boundless grace adoring, 
 Which brought thee from Thy glorious 
 throne. 
 Our peace with God restoring ; 
 Oh, make my heart a shrine, where 
 peace 
 Shall keep her constant dwelling! 
 Where i^rateful praise shall never 
 Abroad Thy glories telling, [cease,

 1 Oh, there is a river whose fresh waters 
 
 flow 
 O'er earth's broadest surface, a cure for 
 
 all woe ; 
 
 (2.) 
 
Its streams are all healing, there's life in 
 
 each wave, 
 Oh, try it, and prove it, 'tis mighty to save 
 
 2 Oh, drink of this river, its full crystal 
 
 flood 
 Eefreshes and lightens of sin's weary 
 
 load ; 
 Its ripples ne'er mix with the billows of 
 
 strife, 
 This is the "Pure River of Water of 
 
 Life."

 be, 
 
 'Tis fresh, overflowing, and better, 'tis 
 free ; 
 
 The sin-sick rejoice in this "peace- 
 speaking" tide, 
 
 This river is Jesus, the " once crucified.

 1 Alas ! and did my Saviour bleed ! 
 
 And did my Sovereign die ? 
 "Would He devote that sacred head 
 
 For such a worm as I ? 
 Cho. Jesus died for you ; 
 Jesus died for me ; 
 Yes, Jesus died for all mankind,. 
 Eless God, salvation's fi'ee.

 He groaned upon the tree ? 
 Amazing pity ! grace unknown ! 
 And love beyond degree. — Ck<D. 
 
 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide. 
 
 And shut his glories in, 
 "When Christ, the mighty Maker^ died,

 , While His dear Cross appears ; 
 Bissdve-my heart in thankfulness. 
 
 And melt mine eyes to tears. — Cho.

 The debt of love I owe : 
 Here, Lord, I give myself away, 
 Tis all that I can do. — Cho.

 Sinful though my heart may be ;

 Blood of Christ, so rich and free ;

 1 In the cross of Christ I glory, 
 Towering o'er the wrecks of time ; 
 
 All the light of sacred story 
 Gathers round its head sublime. 
 
 2 When the woes of life o'ertake me, 
 Hopes deceive, and fears annoy, 
 
 Never shall the cross forsake me : 
 Lo ! it glows with peace and joy. 
 
 3 When the sun of bliss is beaming 
 Light and love upon my waj', 
 
 From the cross the radiance streaming 
 Adds new lustre to the day. 
 
 4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, 
 By the cross are sanctified ; 
 
 Peace is there, that knows no measure, 
 Joys that through all time abide.

 1 Pilgrim, burdened with thy sin, 
 Come the way to Zion's gate ; 
 
 There, till Mercy let thee m. 
 
 Knock and weep, and watch and wait ; 
 Knock — He knows the sinner's cry ; 
 
 Weep — He loves the mourner's tears ; 
 "Watch — for saving ^race is nigh ; 
 
 Wait — till heavenly light appears. 
 
 2 Hark ! it is the Bridegroom's voice : 
 Welcome, pilgrim, to thy rest ; 
 
 Now within the gate rejoice, 
 
 Safe and sealed, and bought and blest : 
 Safe— from all the lures of vice ; 
 
 Sealed — by signs the chosen know; 
 Bought — by love and life the price; 
 
 Blest — the mighty debt to owe. 
 
 3 Holy pilgrim ! what for thee 
 In a" world like this remain ? 
 
 Prom thy guarded breast shall dee 
 Pear an (1 shame, and doubt and pain: 
 
 Pear — the hope of heaven, shall fly ; 
 Shame — from glory's view retiie ; 
 
 Doubt — in certain rapture die ; 
 Pain — in endless bliss expire.

 1 My life flows on in endless song ; 
 Above earth's lamentation 
 
 1 catch the sw^et, tho' far-otf hymn, 
 That hails a new creation. 
 
 Thro' all the tumult and the strife 
 
 I hear the music ringing ; 
 It finds an echo in my soul — 
 
 How can I keep from singing ? 
 
 2 What though my joys and comfort die ? 
 The Lord my Saviour liveth ; 
 
 What though the darkness gather round? 
 
 Songs in the night He giveth. 
 Xo storm can shake my inmost calm 
 
 While to that refuge clinojing ; 
 Since Christ is Lord of heav n and earth, 
 
 How can I keep from singing ? 
 
 3 I lift my eyes ; the cloud grows dim ; 
 I see the blue above it ; 
 
 And day by day this pathway smoothes, 
 Since first I learned to love it. 
 
 The peace of Christ makes fresh my 
 A fountain ever springing ; [heart, 
 
 All things are mine since I am His — 
 How can I keep from singing ?

 1 Abide with me ; fast falls the eventide : 
 The darkness deepens ; Lord, with me a- 
 
 bide ; 
 When other helpers fail, and comfits 
 
 flee. 
 Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me. 
 
 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little 
 day ; 
 
 Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass a- 
 
 way; 
 Change and decay in all around I see 
 Thou who changest not — abide with 
 
 me. 
 
 3 Thou on my head in early youth didst 
 
 smile, 
 And, though rebellious and perverse 
 
 meanwhile, 
 Thou hast not left me oft as I left Thee ; 
 On to the close, O Lord, abide with me.

 hour, 
 
 What but Thy grace can foil the temp-

 Through clouds and sunshine — oh, a- 
 bide with me. 
 
 5 Hold on Thy cross before my closing 
 
 eyes ; 
 Shine through the gloom, and point me 
 
 to the skies ; 
 Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's 
 
 vain shadows flee, 
 In life and death, O Lord, abide with me.

 Daily I'm constrained to be !

 Seal it foT Thy courts above.

 Lest, for want of Thine assistance. 
 
 Every plant should droop and die.

 Make us prevalent in prayers ; 
 Let each one, esteemed Thy servant,

 And begin, from this good hour, 
 
 To revive Thy work afresh.

 Zion, lonj^ in hostile lands ; 
 
 Mourning captive ! 
 God Himself will loose thy bands ;

 Have thy friends unfaithful proved ? 
 Have thy foes been proud and scornful, 
 By thy sighs and tears unmoved ? 
 
 Cease thy mourning ; 
 Zion still is well beloved.

 He Himself appears thy Friend ; 
 
 All tliy foes shall flee before thee ; 
 Here thy boasts and triumphs end : 
 
 Great deliverance 
 Zion's King shall surely send. 
 
 4 Enemies no more shall trouble, 
 All thy wrongs shall be redress'd. 
 
 For thy shame thou shalt have trouble, 
 
 In thy Maker's favour bless'd ; 
 
 All thy conflicts 
 End in everlasting rest.

 Though the world in arms combine :

 Can attend Jehovah's love.

 Though earth and hell my way oppose, 
 He safely leads my soul along :

 Prone from my Saviour to depart ; 
 But though I oft have him forgot,

 Oh, may my last, expiring breath 
 His loving-kindness sing m death.

 "Oh, give me rest from sin !" 
 " I will," a voice replied ;

 First Commandment.— Thou shalt 
 have no other gods before me. 
 
 Second Commandment.— Thou shalt 
 not make unto thee any gTaven image, 
 or any likeness of any ming that is in 
 heaven above, or that is in the earth be- 
 neath, or that is in the water under the 
 earth : Thou shalt not bow down thy- 
 self to them, nor serve them ; for I the 
 Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting 
 the iniquity of the fathers upon the 
 children unto the third and fourth gen- 
 eration of them that hate me ; and show- 
 ing mercy unto thousands of them that 
 love me and keep my commandments. 
 
 Third Commandment. — Thou shalt 
 not take the name of the Lord thy God 
 in vain ; for the Lord will not hold him 
 guiltless that taketh His name in vain. 
 
 Fourth COxMMandment. — Remember 
 the sabbath-day to keep it holy. Six 
 days shalt thoii labor, and do all thy 
 work : But the seventh day is the sab- 
 bath of the Lord thy God ; in it thou 
 shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy 
 son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, 
 nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor 
 the stranger that is within thy gates : 
 For in six days the Lord made heaven 
 and earth, the sea, and all that in them 
 is, and rested the seventh day : where- 
 fore the Lord blessed the sabbath-day 
 and hallowed it. 
 
 Fifth Commandment. — Honor thy 
 father and thy mother: that thy days 
 may be long upon the land which the 
 Lord thy God giveth thee. 
 
 Sixth Commandment.— Thou shalt 
 not kill. 
 
 Seventh CoMMANDMENT.-Thou shalt 
 not commit adultery. 
 
 Eighth Commandment.— Thou shalt 
 not steal. 
 
 Ninth Commandment. — Thou shalt 
 
 (40.) 
 
not bear false witness against thy' 
 neighbor. 
 
 Tenth Commandment.— Thou shalt 
 not covet thy neighbor's house, thou 
 shalt not covet thj- neighbor's wife, nor 
 his manservant, nor his maidservant, 
 nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything 
 that is thy neighbor's.

 But\hen I am the Saviour's Lamb, 
 
 And He will not neglect me. 
 Then all the time I'll try to climb 
 
 This holy hill of Zion, 
 For I am sure the way is pure. 
 
 And on it comes " lio lion." Oho. 
 Then come with me, we'll upward go, 
 
 And climb this hill together ; 
 And as we walk we'll sweetly talk, 
 
 And sing as we go thither.

 Till we reach tho pearly portals, 
 Where raptured tongues proclaim the 
 songs 
 
 Of the shining-robed immortals.

 Of unseen things above, 
 Of Jesus and His glory.

 The message of salvation 
 
 From Grocl's own holy word. Cho.

 Seem hungering and thirsting

 arise, 
 Like mountains of deep guilt before

 His blood was sijilt. His precious life 
 
 He gave, 
 That mercy, peace, and pardon you 
 
 might have. Cho.

 Thou may' st be happy, and for ever!

 1 Jesus, lover of my soul. 
 
 Let me to Thy bosom fly, 
 While the nearer waters roll, 
 
 While the tempest still is high ; 
 Hide me, O my Sa^dour, hide, 
 
 Till the storm of life is past ; 
 Safe into the haven guide, 
 
 Oh, receive my soul at last. 
 
 2 Other refuge have I none ; 
 
 Haugs mv helpless soul on Thee: 
 Leave, oli, leave me not alone ; 
 
 Still support and comfort me: 
 All my trust on Thee is staj-'d ; 
 
 All my help from Thee I bring; 
 Cover my defenceless liead 
 
 "With the shadow of Thj^ wing. 
 
 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want : 
 
 More than all in Thee I find : 
 Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, 
 Heal the sick, and lead the blind; 
 
 Just and holy is Thy name ; 
 
 I am all unrighteousness ; 
 Palse, and full "of sin I am ; 
 
 Thou art full of truth and grace. 
 
 4 Plenteous grace with Thee I found— 
 
 Giace to cover all my sin ; 
 Let the healing streams abound ; 
 
 Make and keep me pure within. 
 Tliou of life the fountain art ; 
 
 Freely let me think of Thee ; 
 Spring Thou up within my heait , 
 
 E,ise to all eternity.

 Celebrate the feast of love.

 Saved with them from future wrath ; 
 Partners of like precious faith.

 Now as yesterday the same ; 
 One in every time and place, 
 Pull for all of truth and grace : 
 We for Christ, our Master, stand, 
 Lights in a benighted land : 
 
 We our dying Lord confess ; 
 We are Jesus' witnesses.

 SIN AND ITS CURE. 
 
 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have 
 turncfl every one to his own way; and the Lord 
 hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. — Isa. liii, 16. 
 
 For God so loved the world that he gave his onlu he- 
 gotten Son, that ivkosoever believelh in him should not 
 perish, hut have everlasting life. — John iii, 16. 
 
 The whole head is sick, and the whole heart 
 faint. From the sole of the foot even unto the head 
 there is no soundness in :t ; but wounds, and bruises, 
 and putrifying sores. — Tsaiah i, 5, 6. 
 
 When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that 
 are whole have no need of the physician, but thev that 
 are sick ; I came not to call the righteous, but sinners 
 to repentance. — Mark ii, 17. 
 
 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which 
 are these : Adultery, fornication, un cleanness, las- 
 civiousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, 
 emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, hei-esies, enwings, 
 murders, drankenuess, revelini,'s, and such like: of 
 the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in 
 time past, that they which do such things shall not 
 inherit the kingdom of God. 
 
 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long- 
 suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, tem- 
 perance ; against such there is no law. And they that 
 are Chrif.t^s have crucified the flesh with the affections 
 and lasts. — Galatians v, 19-24. 
 
 All have sinned, and come short of the glory of 
 God. — Romans iii, 23. 
 
 For the wanes of sin is death ; but the gift of God is 
 eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.— Romatss 
 vi, 38. 
 
 And so death passed upon all men, for that all 
 have sinned. — E,omans v, 12.

 thee, ana thou sha.lt glorify me. — Psalm i, 15.

 son). I sink into deep mire, where there is no 
 standing : I am come into deep waters, where the 
 floods overflow me. — Psalm Ixix, 1, 2.

 thee : when thou walketh through the fire, thou shalt not 
 be burned ; neither shall the jiame kindle iipon thee. 
 For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, 
 thy Saviour. — Isaiah xliii, 2, 3.

 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all 
 that therein is.

 After this, I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude 
 which no man could number, of all nations, and 
 kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the 
 throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white 
 robes, and palms in their iiands; and cried with a 
 loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which 
 sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb, And 
 all the angels stood round about the throne, and 
 about the eiders and the four beasft, and fell before 
 the throne on their faces, and worshiped God, saying, 
 Amen : Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanks- 
 giving, and honor, and power, and might, be unto 
 our God for ever and ever. Amen. 
 
 These are they which came out (f great tribulation 
 and have wasfied their robes, and made them white 
 in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before 
 the throne of God, and serve him da'/ and night in 
 his temple: and He that slttcth on the throne shall 
 dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, 
 neither thirst anu more ; neither shall the sun light on 
 them, nor amj heat. For (he Lamb which is in the 
 midit of (he throne shall feed them, and shall lead 
 them unto living fountains of waters : and God shall 
 wipe away all tears from their eyes. — Revelation 
 vii, 9-17.

 moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten 
 it, and the Lamb is tKe light thereof .—K^v . xxi, 23.
