CHURCH MEETINGS.
O yes ! and I will join that band;
Now here’s my heart and here’s my hand ;
With Satan’s band no more I’ll be,
But fight for Christ and liberty.
5 His banner soon will be unfurled,
And he will come to judge the world;
On Zion’s mountain we shall stand,
In Canaan’s fair celestial land,
When sun and moon shall darkened be,
And flames consume the land and sea ;
When worlds on worlds together blaze,
We’ll shout, and loud hosannas raise.

Church complete in Christ. John xiv 2.
1 \X/HY should the saints be filled with
’ ’ dread,
Or yield their joys to slavish fear ?
Heaven can’t be full, which holds the Head,
Till every member’s present there.
2 In heav’n the Head—the members here-
Ten thousand thousand, yet but one ;
So far asunder, yet so near :
Some yet unborn—some round the throne.
3 How bright eternal wisdom shines,
When it displays eternal love !
Instructing by these dazzling lines,
The earth beneath and heav’n above.
213 C. M.
The saints above and betotv.
