 PREFACE. 
 
 ORUilN AND ITRPOSE. 
 
 These P'estivai Services have not been made all at once but have 
 grown duriiij: seeral years, called forth by the increasing observance 
 of these four Festivals in cur cliurches. Some of the Services have 
 been used many times, and revised as experience has dictated. 
 
 Very far indeed they are from })erfect. Expressions of worship 
 grow very slowly to their noblest form. But these have come from 
 so much and so reverent trial that we hope they will help awhile to 
 make our Easter, Summer. Harvest and Christmas Festivals not only 
 occasions, but the recurring occasions which bring with them every 
 year the same thoughts and observance, associated with the same 
 words and songs of worship. The influence of association is what 
 we seek mainly, which is gained by using the same service year after 
 year; it is our experience that with every repetition the Service grows 
 dearer, more toucliing, more helpful. By degrees, tender and sacred 
 memories will gather around them, which will make their recurrence 
 truly sacramental. The element of variety is provided in the carols 
 and hymns, and in the places left in the Services for each minister to 
 select Scripture readings for himself. It is hoped and believed that 
 the value of these Festival Days will become very great, both for the 
 thoughts enshrined in them and for their joyful character; and that 
 they will deepen and elevate the worship part of our church-life 
 To "these four it is hoped that each church will add a fifth, in its own 
 way, namely, a Covenant or Fellowship Day, which may become for 
 each its own most tender and beautiful observance : we have tried to 
 supply some help toward this object. 
 
 MANNER OF USING. 
 
 1. All the music of the Services is meant for singing by the Con- 
 gregation. It is well to have a choir, provided it be in sympathy with 
 the people and with the worship ; but let it be merely helper and 
 leader. A choir which supplants the singing of the congregation, or 
 interferes with it, is nothing but an injury. 
 
 2. By the congregation we mean old and young togetlier. These 
 Festival Days should be especially marked by the participation of all 
 the children in the service. 
 
 3. The music should he thoroughly learned beforehand. We know 
 by actual trial that there is no music in these services which children 
 cannot master. Once having learned it thoroughly, they love it and 
 remember it from year to year. Thus we have found it possible, 
 after one or two repetitions, to go into church, when the day returns 
 the next year, without any preperation, as freely and naturally as to 
 any usual service; and this adds to the occasion great sincerity, beauty 
 and enjoyment. 
 
 4. The Christmas Carols, though not specially divided by head" 
 ings, are grouped as much as })osible in three divisions, namely, 
 Religious Thoughts and Associations, the Christmas Story and Carols 
 for the Tree. 
 
 5. It will be grateful and helpful to take up a collection for some 
 noble charity at the Harvest Service; a good place for it is after the 
 responses which follow the Sermon.

 And as it was in the beginning' so is it now every da}'. 
 "We plough, and sow the seed upon tlie land,

 From him is the tree and its leaves ; the corn and fruit from him. 
 The gentle winds of S]iring, and the snow and tiie uproar

 He bestows on us countless jovs and makes us fresh and ruddy with 
 health: 
 He gives to the beasts their i)asturage, and bread to the children 
 of men. 
 He comes unseen into the house, 
 
 And wat(!hes over it, 
 And tlKj.se who i)ray lieartily he teuches, even in sleep and by night.

 ct us tliink with hope, faitli, joy, of tlio iininortiil life. 
 
 ^hirveiloiis, precious and beautiful are the creatures of God. 
 
 There is a beauty of their Spirit which i.s imperishable. 
 
 Their life is great and glorious, 
 
 Joyful with health and strength, with love and with knowledge. 
 
 How can death be evil, being a portion of this beautiful life? 
 
 Every where, at all times, men have believed that in death they die not; 
 
 That when hearts are dust, heart's loves remain. 
 
 Let us listen to some of the brave scriptures of this hope and trust: 
 
 lka^inc!l from Scrifiturcs, Saints anb Sages.

 lil)C Suirit itself beareth witness with our spirit that we are the 
 children of God. For which (;ause we faint not; but though 
 our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is renewed 
 day by day.

 Beauty is spread ujmjii the hills, 
 
 And the valleys are full of flowers. 
 
 Wonderful is the life of Summer that shows forth the glory of God. 
 
 Yet this earthly beauty is hnt a little of that which is in store: 
 
 For no one can measure the riches of God. 
 
 Eye hath not seen nor ear heard the thiuirs that God hath prepared 
 
 for those that serve him.

 Xow is the ingathering of tlie year. 
 The sons of men go forth to tlieir lahor, 
 
 And the land yieldeth for tliem food. 
 In tlie fields they reap tlie luirvest. 
 And gather the vintage from the vineyard. 
 The liills are girded witli glatlness 
 
 And the pastures are elothed with flocks. 
 l)lessed of (iod is the land for tlie dew of heaven 
 And for the de<'p that sleepeth heneath ; 
 I'ltr the [)reeions IVuits hrought forth by the sun, 
 And for the prc(;ioua things put forth by the rain ; 
 For the jirecious things of the earth, and its fullne.ss, 
 
 And for the good will of him wlio giveth all. 
 Then let tlie fields be joyful, and all that is therein. 
 Tlie Lord erowneth the year with his goodness. 
 
 The earth is full of his riches. 
 The eyes of all wait upon him, 
 He giveth them their meat in due season. 
 The earth is full of the goodness of God. 
 And his tender nienies are uvei' all his works. 
 Bless the Lord, all ye his works, 
 
 And let all men bless liis holy name forever and evc; .

 ^nb on the birth-night of Jesus, 
 
 There were shepherds in the field in the same country, 
 
 Keeping watch by night over their flock. 
 
 And suddenly an angel stood by them, 
 
 And a great light shone round them ; 
 
 And the angel told them Jesus was born 
 
 And was lying in a manger near by, 
 
 Who should be a king and a prophet and a Savior. 
 
 Then suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly 
 
 hosts, 
 
 Singing, Glory to God in the highest, 
 
 On earth peace, good will to men !

 The world is wide and many families are gathered within it ; 
 
 But to each heart one home is most familiar and dear. 
 The earth is great and many are the nations that dwell upon it; 
 
 But to each heart one country is most familiar and dear. 
 To onr country we owe our service and love, as good citizens : 
 
 As citizens of the great world we have duties to all mankind. 
 Have not all one Father? 
 
 Of one hath God made every nation of men, to dwell on all the 
 face of the earth. 
 As in the community of men, so in the community of nations; if one 
 member suffer, all the members suffer therein ; 
 And if one member rejoice, all the members rejoice therein. 
 The time cometh when men shall beat their swords into ploughshares, 
 and their spears into pruning-hooks ; 
 When nation shall not lift up the sword against nation, neither 
 shall they learn war any more. 
 
 Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation may enter in ; 
 
 The nation that keepeth the truth, that establisheth Justice; 
 That maketh its rulers Righteousness and its otlicers Peace; 
 
 Wherein each one despiseth the gain of oppression, and with- 
 holdeth his hands from bribes.

 Christening Service. 51 
 
 I al.-^o am a child, and I For all Ijehind the starry sky, 
 
 Am ignorant and weak ; Behind the world so broad, 
 
 I gaze npon the starry sky, Behind men's hearts and souls doth lie 
 
 And then I must not speak : The Infinite of God. 
 Lo I Lord, I sit in thy wide space. 
 
 My child upon my knee ; 
 She looketli up unto my face, 
 And I look up to thee.

 ^c fiovcnant Service. 
 
 AVe otter in this book no complete Service of Covenant or P'ellow- 
 t^liip, because this is a service so specially related to each church, and 
 >() connected with the covenant of the church and influenced by it, that 
 it seems best, and even necessary, to leave it to be shaped by each 
 congregation for itself. Yet we feel that it may become in some con- 
 gregations the tenderest and most solemn of all our Festivals. The 
 value of a service as a Bond of Fellowship for all, and as a Bond of 
 Con.secration for all, too, but especially for the children as they near 
 young manhood and young womanhood, is manifestly great; and yet 
 its value depends wholly on the serious and loving spirit in which it 
 is entered into. The Service should not be lightly introduced into 
 any church, or lightly pro]>osed by any new minister. The thought 
 of it should grow by (juiet conference among the pcoi)le into a want 
 for it ; and when hearts have been drawn together warmly, and the 
 Church-IIome feeling is already strong, even then its introduction 
 -hould be waived until nearly all with one mind approach the 
 thought with joy. 
 
 It i>'recommended tliat the Seivice be held on appointed Sun- 
 days of the year whet her one or more and only on these, to the end 
 that it lie looked forward to with siiccial interest and feeling. If 
 uiily one Sunday be aiipointed, the New Year's Sunday seems the 
 nio.st titling day. As the children of the church approach the age of 
 sixteen years, it is to be lioj)cdthat they will wish to receive the wel- 
 cMiiic and j</in tlu'ir names to those of father, mother and friends on 
 the Book of the Cliuicli-lliiiiie. They should not be urged, Init yet 
 not uninviteil, to do so. The jtastor, the teachers of the Sun<lay 
 School, and especially the juiieiits, if they value the service, will not 
 forget its re]ati(ni to the children. 
 
 We give here two forms which may indicate the kind of service 
 we have in mind and possibly serve as helps or suggestions.

 We add .some examples of Church Covenants: 
 
 (1) The CiruRcH at Ann AiinoR, Miciiig.vn. 
 
 "lUlicving ill that Kuligioii of Nature and the Human Soul which existed be- 
 fiirr all Bibles, which has uttered itself with greater or less clearness through the 
 icligious teachers of all lands and ages, but which was ta\iglit and impressed upon 
 the world with uuequaled power by Jesus of Nazareth, the great prophet of (iod. 
 from wh(i>e words and life came Christianity, we. the undersigned, do hereby as- 
 Mniate oui'selves togi'tber as a Cliristian Church, for tlie iiurjiose of promoting that 
 religion in ourselves and in society around us. by maintaining regular meetings for 
 unite<l wor-hip, by earnestly setddng truth '.o^ether. by cultivating among ourselves 
 a -pirit of sincere and loving brotherhood, and by endeavoring in every way in our 
 power to do good in the world. Imposing no creed ujion the consciences of any, we 
 c(ir<!ia!ly welconu- all to ;i place among us who sympathize with us in these our 
 general aims,-' (1880.) 
 
 (2) Tjie CiriiuH AT Des Moines, Iow.v. 
 
 Bond of Union : "Kecognizing tlie Fatherhood of God, the Brotherhood of Man- 
 kind, receiving Jesus as Teacher, seeking the ' Spirit of Truth ' as the guide of our 
 lives, and in the hope of immortal life, we associate ourselves together to maintain 
 the public worship of God and.to jjromotc the welfare of humanity." 
 
 (.'!) The Church at Cincinnati, Ohio. 
 
 Bond of Union : ""We. whose names are here recorded, join ourselves together, 
 hourf and hand, as members of the First Congregational Church of Cincinnati, for 
 the maintenance of a free, rational and liberal worship, the study and practice of 
 the r( ligious life, and to promote truth, righteousness, reverence and charity among 
 men : ami we cordially inxite to oiu fidlowship all who sympathize in these purposes 
 and will co-operate with us in working for the Kingdom of God.'' (1879.)

 (For Kmancipation, or Decoration, Day.) 
 
 One moment on the scatrold, and he left it Holy Ground! 
 Three hundred thou.sand heroes now lie guarding it around. 
 But reverent heart.s are pilgrim still to many a sacred mound, 
 
 And the Ri<rht goes marching on I 
 (Jod had counted up the slave-graves and heard the l)lack man's 
 
 moan, 
 Till at last a leaj)ing thunder shook the awful .ludgment- 
 
 Throne, 
 " For each lash a cannon-crash ! For each cry a l)attle-groan !" 
 
 And the Right goes marching on ! 
 The Hands wherein the sparrow falls, that beckon to the star, 
 Are Hands that harness unseen Dooms to Wrong's triumphal car, 
 .vnd his steeds untiring draw the nations trembling tn the Bar, 
 
 And the Right goes marching on I 
 Then, if {)erchance a nation's Soul from out her shame shall rise 
 And light of Justice kindle fresli within lier chastened eyes, 
 The God, who dooms, shall save her l)y the jtain that jjurifies, 
 
 And the Right goes marching on ! 
 Lo, the llowers are Itreaking forth, and the grasses are a-wave, 
 Where tlie bodies of our hero dead are sleejjing in the grave: 
 So shall blessingcrown the woe, for his Haiuls are strong to save, 
 
 .Anil the Right goes marching on !

 Ho is traiiiiiling out the vint:i;(' where tlie grapes of wratli are 
 
 stored : 
 He liath loosed the fateful liglitniu^'s of his terrible swift sword ; 
 
 His truth is inarehiug on. 
 I liave seen liini in the wateh-fires of a hundred circling camps : 
 They have huilded liini an altar in the evening dews and damps ; 
 I can read his righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamj)s; 
 
 His day is marching on. 
 I have read a tiery gospel, writ in burnished rows of steel : 
 " As ye deal with my contemners, so with you my grace shall deal: 
 ]>et the Hero, born of woman, crush the seri)ent with his heel. 
 
 Since God is marching on." 
 He has sounded f(^rth the trumpet that shall never call retreat : 
 He is sifting out the hearts of men before his judgment seat ; 
 (), be swift, my soul, to answer him 1 be jubilant, my feet! 
 
 Our God is marching on. 
 In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea. 
 With a glory in his bosom that transfigures y(ju and me ; 
 As he died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, 
 
 While God is marching on.
