Prayer for a Revival. —) NEWTON.

1 SAVIOUR, visit thy plantation;

Greenville.

Grant us, Lord, a gracious rain!

All will come to desolation

Unless thou return again.

Lord, revive us;

All our help must come from thee.

2 Keep no longer at a distance;
Shine upon us from on high,
Lest, for want of thine assistance,
Every plant should droop and die.
Lord, revive us;

All our help must come from thee.

3 Let our mutual love be fervent;
Make us prevalent in prayers;
Let each one esteemed thy servant,
Shun the world's bewitching snares.
Lord, revive us;

All our help must come from thee.

4 Break the tempter's fatal power;
Turn the stony heart to flesh;
And begin from this good hour
To revive thy work afresh.
Lord, revive us ;

All our help must come from thee.

Prayer for a Revival. — HASTINGS.

1 O LORD! thy work revive
In Zion's gloomy hour;

Olmutz.

And make our feeble graces thrive,

By thy restoring power.

20 let thy chosen few

Awake to earnest prayer!

Their solemn vows again renew,

And walk in filial fear.

3 Thy Spirit then will speak,
Through lips of humble clay,
Till hearts of adamant shall break,
Till rebels shall obey.

195.

4 Now lend thy gracious ear,
Now listen to our cry;
O come, and bring salvation near!
Our souls on thee rely.

Prayer for the Increase of the Church. DODDRIDGE.
1 HEAR, gracious Sovereign, from thy throne,
And send thy various blessings down:
While by thy children thou art sought,
Attend the prayer thy word hath taught.
2 Come, sacred Spirit, from above,
And fill the coldest heart with love;
Soften to flesh the flinty stone,
And let thy gracious power be known.
3 0, let the joyful converts wait
Numerous around thy temple-gate;
Each pressing on with zeal, to be
A living sacrifice to thee.

Prayer for spiritual Influence. - BURDER'S COLL. 1 HOLY GHOST, dispel our sadness,

Sicily.

Pierce the clouds of nature's night;
Come, thou source of joy and gladness,
Breathe thy life and spread thy light.

2 Hear, O hear our supplication,
Blessed Spirit! God of peace!
Rest upon this congregation,
With th' abundance of thy grace.

3 Author of our new creation,

Bid us all thine influence prove;
Make our souls thy habitation;
Shed abroad the Saviour's love.

1 HAIL! Sweetest, dearest tie that binds
Our glowing hearts in one;

Hail! sacred hope, that tunes our minds
To harmony divine.

It is the hope, the blissful hope,

Which Jesus' grace has given

The hope, when days and years are past,
We all shall meet in heaven;
We all shall meet in heaven at last,
We all shall meet in heaven;

The hope, when days and years are past,
We all shall meet in heaven.

2 What though the northern wintry blast
Shall howl around our cot;

What though beneath an eastern sun
Be cast our distant lot;

Yet still we share the blissful hope,
Which Jesus' grace has given, &c.

3 From Burmah's shores, from Afric's strand,
From India's burning plain,
From Europe, from Columbia's land,
We hope to meet again.

It is the hope, the blissful hope,

Which Jesus' grace has given, &c.

4 No lingering look, no parting sigh,
Our future meeting knows;
There friendship beams from every eye,
And home immortal grows.

O, sacred hope, O, blissful hope!

Which Jesus' grace has given, &c.

Converting Grace implored.-N. COLVER.

1 COME, Lord, in mercy come again,
With thy converting power;
The fields of Zion thirst for rain,
O send a gracious shower!

Dundee.

2 Our hearts are filled with sore distress,
While sinners all around

Are pressing on to endless death,
And no relief is found.

3 Dear Saviour, come with quick'ning power,
Thy mourning people cry;

Salvation bring in mercy's hour,

Nor let the sinner die.

4 Once more let converts throng thy house,
And shouts of victory raise;

Then shall our griefs be turned to joy,
And sighs, to songs of praise.

Rejoicing in Revival. Beddome.

1 REJOICE, for Christ, the Saviour reigns;
He spreads his triumphs all abroad,
And sinners, cleansed from all their stains,
Own him their Saviour and their God.

2 His sons and daughters from afar
Daily at Zion's gate arrive;

Those who were dead in sin before
By sov'reign grace are made alive.
3 0, may his conquests still increase,
And ev'ry foe his power subdue!
While angels celebrate his praise,
And saints his growing glories show.
