CHRISTIAN EXERCISES.
      As to Canaan on ye move,
      Bless and praise redeeming love.
    3  Mourning souls, dry up your tears,
      Banish all your guilty fears ;
      See your guilt and curse remove,
      Cancelled by redeeming love.
    4  Ye, alas ! who long have been
      Willing slaves to death and sin,
      Now from bliss no longer rove;
      Stop, and taste redeeming love.
    5  Welcome all by sin oppressed,
      Welcome to his sacred rest;
      Nothing brought him from above,
      Nothing but redeeming love.
    3  When his Spirit leads us home,
      When we to his glory come,
      We shall all the fullness prove
      Of our Lord’s redeeming love.
     f Hither then your music bring;
      Strike aloud each cheerful string;
      Mortals, join the host above,
      Join to praise redeeming love.

                  Ecstatic {/lories.
    1  DURST, ye emerald gates, and bring
       D To my raptured vision
      All the ecstatic joys that spring
        Round the bright Elysian.
      Lo, we lift our longing eyes ;
      Break, ye intervening skies;
      Sun of righteousness arise,
      Open the gates of paradise.,
