Habakkuk, iii, 17, 18.
JESUS is mine I I m now prepared
To meet with what I thought most hard !
Yes, let the winds of trouble blow,
And comforts melt away like snow ;
No blasted trees or failing crops
Can hinder my eternal hopes :
Though creatures change, the Lord s the same;
Then let me triumph in his name.
98.
WE seek a rest beyond the skies,
In everlasting day;
Through floods and flames the passage lies,
But Jesus guards the way:
The swelling flood and raging flame
Hear and obey his word ;
Then let us triumph in his name,
Our Saviour is the Lord.

Deut. xxxii, 9, 10.
1 THE saints Emmanuel s portion are,
Redeem d by price, reclaim d by power ;
His special choice, and tender care,
Owns them and guards them every hour.
2 He finds them in a barren land,
Beset with sins and fears and woes ;
He leads and guides them by his hand,
And bears them safe from all their foes.

Hebrews, xiii, 20, 22.
1 Now may He who from the dead
Brought the Shepherd of the sheep,
