Refrcsh'd by frequent heav'nly shoi«r*rs, With growing strength it sped. And numerous rills of Propheicy Enlarg'd its narrow bed. But when to Calv'ry's sacred foot Approach'd the silver tide, With awful Majesty it flow'd— A River, deep and wide. (4) IV. This River, now a mighty Sea, Tho' humble in its birth. Still onward moves, a living flood, To cover all the earth. V. Lo ! here it rolls its gentle waves. Their virtues to display ; And bids us on their bosom glide, To Christ*s eternal day. The Sermon. o ^ When the Congregation assembles on the Platform, the Choir will sing the following-^ HYMX. SOV'REIGN Lord, Almighty King, _ The source of life and light — Arch Angels, Spirits, Suns, and Worlds, Are nothing in thy sight. .LI* The heaven of heavens, creation's bounds, Thy presencie can't contain : And shall Thy Glorious Majesty In courts of Stone remain. III. Yes — clolh'd in mercy, thou hast said, I seek the contrite heart. Where modest faith and love reside, Sweet blessings to impart. IV. Wherever two or three are met To celebrate my name, The gift of peace and pure resolves My presence shall proclaim* ^ % (5) V. Encourag'd thus by sacred writ, To God, in Christ, we raise, Where Pagan darkness er'st prevailed, A House of piayer and praise. 1[ Then the Minister shall say the following^- Prayer. ALMIGHTY and Everlasting God, who hast made of one blood all the Nations thfit dwell on the face of the Earth, and hast graciously promised Thy Spirit to us and to our children, and as many as call upon Thy holy name, we give Thee most humble and hearty thanks for putting it in our minds to build a House to Thine honor and glory : But will God indeed dwell on the Earth 1 Behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain Thee, how much less a house made with hands. Yet, O Lord, have respect to the prayers of Thy servants, and fulfil Thy pro- mise, that wherever two or three are gathered together in Thy name there Thou wilt be in the midst of them. Pros- per now, O God, our work: O prosper it as a sanctuary entirely devoted to Thy service— for reading therein Thy most holy word— for celebrating Thy Holy Sacraments— for offering to Thy glorious Majesty the sacrifices of Prayer and Thanksgiving— for blessing Thy people in Thy name. May it accomplish the desire of our hearts, in promoting the knowledge of our Saviour and dispensing the blessings of His Gospel to many generations. Let Thine ears, we be- seech Thee, be ever open to the supplications of Thy people from this place : pity and forgive their maniforld sins, and hasten the happy time when Thy Priests shall be clothed with salvation, and Thy Saints rejoice in goodness ; and when all shall know the Lord, from the least to the greatest— so (6) sliall wc have i^race in the life that now is, and glory in that which is to come : through Jesus Christ our Lord.

BLESSED be Thy name, O Lord, that though Thou art the high and holy One who inhabitest Eternity, and art covered with light as with a garment, Thou delight- cst to dwell with the humble and contrite heart. We confess 6 Lord, that we are not worthy to lift up our eyes to the place where Thine honor dwelleth : for thousands of pure Spirits serve Thee day and night in Thy Temple, and otter unto Thee a service free from the many imperfections and infirmities which pollute our sincerest acts of devotion : Yet glory be to Thy name that thou vouchsafest to take pleasure in human praise, and hast so far blessed our endeavours m preparing a place for Thy more especial worship. Enable us in Thy good time, we beseech Thee, to complete the same : and may the sweet incense of prayer and praise offered unto Thee by us, and all who may hereafter serve Thee in this Church, be pleasing in thy sight. Give us grace, O Blessed Father, to approach Thee on this solemn occa- sion with reverence and Godly fear : with clean hands and pure hearts : with bodies undefiled and minds sanctified ; and let Thy Holy Spirit at all times direct and guide us in the ways of righteousness and true holiness ; and so influence o (8) our affections, that we may present ourselves a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto Thee ; and when Christ who is our life shall appear, that wo may appear with Him in joy un- speakable and full of glory. Grant this, O Merciful Father, for thy dear Son's sake, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. IE Then shall be sung the following — GLORY to the King on high. Who sits enthron'd above the sky ; Deviser of the mighty plan That Paradise restores to man. II. To Christ, the Paschal sacrafice, From evVy heart let incense rise, Who shed his blood to make us free, The trophies of his victory. 1 1 J « ". H i :« ■ Praise to the Comforter Divine, Of Christian health the seal and sign ; Hope, love, and joy, by Thee are giv'n. And Faith that lifts the soul to Heav'n. IV. Give glory to the Three in One, The Father, Spirit, only Son : Let men on Earth and Saints above Unite to praise the God of Love. H Then the Priest shall let the Congregation depart witfi this Blessing. THE peace of God, which passeth all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge and Love of God, and of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord : — And the blessing of God Almighty, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, be aniongst you, and remain with you Avnfi vnfivt •l&'l; mr
