GLORIES OF CHRIST.
4 When he the topmost stone shall bring
To heaven, to see him there,
We shall the Builder’s praises sing,
And he the glory bear.
73 S. M.
Christ glorious in tears.
1 PAID Christ o’er sinners weep,
And shall our cheeks be dry ?
Let floods of penitential grief
Burst forth from every eye.
2 The Son of God in tears,
Angels with wonder see:
Be thou astonished, O my soul;
He sheds those tears for thee.
3 He wept that we might weep;
Each sin demands a tear:
In heaven alone no sin is found,
And there’s no weeping there.
74 L. M.
Christ the highway of holiness.
1 TESUS my all to heaven is gone,
'■-J He whom my hopes are fixed upon;
His track I see, and I’ll pursue
The narrow way, till him I view.
2 The way the holy prophets went,
The road that leads from banishment,
The King’s highway of holiness
I’ll go, for all his paths are peace.
& This is the way I long have sought,
And mourned because I found it not;
My grief my burden long has been,
Because I could not cease from sin.
