ADORATION AND PRAISE.
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
But all their joys are one.
2 1 Worthy the Lamb that died,’ they cry,
1 To be exalted thus : ’
‘Worthy the Lamb,’ our lips reply,
‘ For he was slain for us.’
3 Jesus is worthy to receive
Honor and power divine ;
And blessings more than we can give,
Be, Lord, for ever thine.
4 Let all that dwell below the sky,
And air, and earth, and seas,
Conspire to lift thy glories high,
And speak thine endless praise.
5 The whole creation join in one,
To bless the sacred name
Of him who sits upon the throne,
And to adore the Lamb.

JPrai.se to the Redeemer.
1 DLUNGED in a gulf of dark despair
A We wretched sinners lay;
Without one cheering gleam of hope,
Or spark of glimm’ring day.
2 With pitying eyes the Prince of grace
Beheld our helpless grief ;
He saw, and—O, amazing love !
He flew to our relief.
3 Down from the shining courts above
With joyful haste he fled,
Entered the grave in mortal flesh,
And dwelt among the dead.
