THOUGHTS AND FANCIES FOR SUNDAY EVENINGS

[Why should I always pray]

[One thing I of the Lord desire—]

[Lilies take no care]

[Once they sought the Cross of shame]

[It is the fashion now for wits to be]

[Hark! hark! the joyous lark]

[He led me out and in]

[Oh to be like my Lord! Yet must I be]

[Be still, and know He doeth all things well]

[Abba, Father! O to think that I]

[O barren fruitless years]

[Oft, Lord, I weary in Thy work]

[Lo! this our marching order still]

[The Master comes, and calls for thee]

[There where the hosts of darkness lie]

[Light the lamp that burneth cheery]

[Looking unto Jesus]

[Ah! you bring money in your hand]

[Learn, O my soul, to use]

[One writ a plea for Faith, and put]

[Sometimes my heart with hope is filled]

[Alone, to face the Powers of darkness here]

[Bright and glad the time has been]

[Were there no oxen feeding in the stall]

[Jesus, in the deep, dark night]

[Whatsoe'er I be or do]

[Not to be served, O Lord, but to serve man]

[Laying the foundations]

[I have heard a cry of wailing]

[What shall I do for all the grace and truth]

[All the springs of God are found]

[If I had got the cup]

[He had not gone to ply the net]

[What am I that there should be]

[Gird your loins about with truth]

[When I forget Thee, like a sun-parched land]

[Bind on me, Lord, the new law given]

[O heart, my heart, that burdened art and breaking]

[Lord, there is nothing I can give]

[He spake without one shade of guilt or blame]

[Oh we boast us of our law]

[Ah me! the secret sin]

[Not one regretful look behind]

[Higher still, and higher!]

[Dear to me the Church of Christ]

[Hast thou wandered far, my child?]

[Thy Kingdom come—the reign of truth and right]

[Waiting for the day to dawn]

[Bid me not look in heaven for only rest]

[Oh, are they near to us or far away?]

[O'er land and sea love follows with fond prayers]
