MONTREAL: C. W. COATES. HALIFAX: S. F. HUESTIS. 1889. 210:1 PREFACE. THE preparation of this work. The Canadian Hymnal, was oflficially assigned to a Committee, of which the Rev. Dr. Withrow was Chair- man, and Dr. Sanderson, Secretary. Neither time nor pains have been spared in the preparation of a book, such as we venture to hope will be received by the public as one not ex- celled by any other work in the wide range of Sunday School and Social Service Song. To keep the volume within reasonable limits; to introduce a desirable number of new hymns, and yet retain a fair proportion of old ones, dear to many hearts; to provide for the more thoughtful, and not to utterly exclude all hymns of a lighter type; to meet the wants and tastes of teachers, adult scholars, and children of different grades, down to the infant class; to provide for the different anniversaries recognized by the churches; to introduce nothing of doubtful theology, and to make the Hymnal suitable for Social Services without damage to Sabbath School interests, were among the many important, and sometimes difficult, considerations steadily kept in view by the Committee. Much attention has been given to the classification of the hymns; and, in this regard. The Canadian 'Iymnal may probably be regarded as excelling all others. The general subject stands at the head of the left-hand page, thus, Adoration, left-hand; God the Father, Cod the Son, God the Holy Spirit, The Holy Trinity, on the right hand. This arrangement will render it very easy for any leader to turn at once to any subject suited to the occasion. The tune named in connection with each hymn is suggested as an appropriate one. In many cases, however, other tunes may be selected. As a desire has been expressed to have the name of each author inserted in connection with the hymn composed by him, the Secretary has, at no small expenditure of time, attemp'ed to meet that desire so far as it was in his pow^r to do 80.

' 1 Before Jehovah's awful throne, Ye nations bow with sacred joy ; Know that the Lord is God alone, He can create, and he destroy. 2 His sovereign power, without our aid, Made ns of clay, and formed us men ; And when like wandering sheep we strayed, He brought us to his fold again. .3 We'll CI owd thy gates with thankful songs, High as the neavens our voices raise; And eri.rth, with her ten thousand tongues, Shal I fill thy courts with sounding praise. 4 AVide as the world is thy command ; Vast as eternity thy love ; Firm as a rock thy truth shall stand, Whon i-olling years shall cease to move. --/«ooc Watts 2 6-«8.

And silent bow before his face ; Who know his iK)wer, his grace who prove, Serve him with awe, with reverence love. 2 Lo ! God is here I him day and night United choirs of angels sing ; To him, enthroned above all height, Heaven's host their noblest praises Disdain not, Lord, our meaner song, Who praise thee with a stammering tongue. 3 Being of beings ! may our praise Thy courts with grateful fragrance fill ; Still may we stana before thy face. Still hear and do thy sovereign will : To thee may all our thoughts arise. Ceaseless, accepted sacrince. 4 As flowers their opening leaves display. And glad drink in the solar fire. So may we catch thy every ray, So may thy influence us inspire ; Thou Beam of the eternal Beam, Thou purging Fire, thou quickening Flame. Waley. 3 L.M. [TUNBl.

And for his sheep he doth us take. 3 O enter then his gates with praise. Approach with joy his courts unto : Praise, laud, and bless his name always, For it is sttemly so to do. 4 For why? the Lord our God is good His mercy is forever sure ; Hid truth at all times firmly stood.
