1pWhile humble shepherds watch'd their flocks
2pBehold the woman's promis'd seed
3pHark the glad sound! the Saviour's come
4pThe true Messiah now appears
5pIn Jordan's tide the Baptist stands
6pThe race that long in darkness pin'd
7pAwake, O Zion's daughters, rise
8pTwas on that dark, that doleful night
9pTwas on that night when doom'd to know
10pNow let our mournful songs record
11pBehold the blind their sight receive
12pAs on the cross the Saviour hung
13pHe dies! the Friend of Sinners dies!
14pWhen we the sacred grave survey
15pThe angels that watch'd round the tomb
16pYes, the Redeemer rose
17pChrist, the Lord, is ris'n today!
18pThe Saviour ris'n today we praise
19pBehold the bright morning appears
20pThis is the day the first ripe sheaf
21pOur Lord is risen from the dead
22pBeyond the glitt'ring starry sky
23pSoon as the reign of sin began
24pGreat was the day, the joy was great
25pBefore Jehovah's awful throne
26pJesus shall reign where e'er the sun
1hTo him that lov'd the sons of men
2hJesus in thee our eyes behold
3hThy worthiness is all our song
4hBehold the glories of the Lamb
5hO Jesus, the glory, the wonder, and love
6hCome let us join our cheerful songs
7hWe bless the prophet of the Lord
8hHail to the Prince of life and peace
9hAll hail the power of Jesus' name
10hJesus! we hail thee Israel's King
11hKing Jesus, reign forevermore
12hNow let our cheerful eyes survey
13hThy love, O Jesus, is a theme
14hRejoice, the Lord is King!
15hCome let us join in songs of praise
16hFather how wide thy glory shines
17hWith Israel's God who can compare?
18hFrom all that dwell below the skies
19hSalvation, O the joyful sound!
20hNot all the blood of beasts
21hO ye immortal throng
22hInfitite excellence is thine
23hCome ye that love the Saviour's name
24hThis God is the God we adore
25hExalted Prince of life, we own
26hRejoice, O earth! the Lord is king
27hO Jesus! the giver
28hRaise your triumphant songs
1ssGlorious things of these are spoken
2ssHow firm a foundation
3ssHail! Morning, known among the blest!
4ssWhen the Kings of kings comes
5ssThere's no name among men
6ssWhile we the op'ning tomb survey
7ssBehold the well of life appears
8ssWho hath our report believed?
9ssI'm not asham'd to own my Lord
10ssHow bright these glorious spirits shine
11ssForgiveness! 'tis a joyful sound
12ssBlow ye the trumpet, blow
13ssCome ye that love the Lord
14ssFar from these narrow scenes of night
15ssOn Zion's glorious summit stood
16ssOn Jordan's stormy banks I stand
17ssO what amazing words of grace!
18ssBehold the mountain of the Lord
19ssO love divine! how sweet thou art!
20ssHow pleasing to behold and see
21ssKindred in Christ for his name's sake
22ssAm I a soldier of the cross
23ssO God of Bethel! by whose hand
24ssDescending down into the flood
25ssLet not your hearts with anxious tho'ts
26ssMortals awake! with angels join
27ssThe spacious firmament on high
28ssBehold the amazing gift of love
29ssLo he come with clouds descending!
30ssLord dismiss us with thy blessing
31ssMay the grace of Christ our Saviour
32ssPlung'd in a gulf of dark despair
33ssWhat tho' no flowers the fig-tree clothe
34ssLo what a glorious sight appears!
35ssO'er the gloomy hills of darkness
36ssThere is a land of pure delight
37ssO thou in whose presence
38ssLet us sing the King Messiah
39ssO God! our help in ages past
IHow excellent in all the earth
IIGod's law is perfect and converts
IIIThe Lord's my shepherd; I'll not want
IVThy mercies that most tender are
VOne thing I of the Lord desir'd
VIO blessed is the man to whom
VIIGod will I bless all times; his praise
