Children of the heavenly King, As ye journey, sweetly sing; Sing your Saviour"s worthy praise, Glorious in his works and ways.
2 We are travelling home to G.o.d, In the way the fathers trod: They are happy now; and we Soon their happiness shall see.
3 Shout, ye little flock and blest; You on Jesus" throne shall rest: There your seat is now prepared, There your kingdom and reward.
4 Lift your eyes, ye sons of light; Zion"s city is in sight; There our endless home shall be, There our Lord we soon shall see.
5 Fear not, brethren; joyful stand On the borders of your land; Christ, the everlasting Son, Bids you undismay"d go on.
6 Lord, obediently we go, Gladly leaving all below: Only thou our leader be, And we still will follow thee.

Hymn 27. 10"s.
"_Abide with me, fast falls the eventide._"
Abide with me, fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide.
When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life"s little day; Earth"s joys grow dim, its glories pa.s.s away, Change and decay in all around I see; O thou, who changest not, abide with me.
3 I need thy presence every pa.s.sing hour; What but thy grace can foil the tempter"s power?
Who, like thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
4 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness, Where is death"s sting? where grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me.
5 Hold thou 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, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

Hymn 28. C. M.
"_I heard the voice of Jesus say._"
I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Come unto me and rest; Lay down, thou weary one, lay down Thy head upon my breast."
2 I came to Jesus as I was-- Weary, and worn, and sad; I found in him a resting place, And he has made me glad.
3 I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Behold I freely give The living water--thirsty one Stoop down, and drink, and live."
4 I came to Jesus, and I drank Of that life-giving stream; My thirst was quench"d, my soul reviv"d And now I live in him.
5 I heard the voice of Jesus say, "I am this dark world"s light; Look unto me, thy morn shall rise, And all thy day be bright."
6 I looked to Jesus, and I found In him my Star, my Sun; And in that Light of Life I"ll walk Till earthly days are done.
