53 7s.
1 O'ER Arabia's dreary sands, Israel pass'd to distant lands; God their guide throughout the way, Faith in him their only stay.
2 Mercies, day by day renew'd, Rais'd the hymn of gratitude; While like pearly dew-drops spread Lay around their daily bread.
3 Crystal streams, from Horeb's side, Each returning want supplied, Ever flowing to impart Feelings of a grateful heart.
4 Thus through deserts wild and drear, Manna, and the streams so clear, Form their only meat and drink,
At whose frown ev'n nations shrink.
5 Christians ! learn a lesson here,— Israel's God, for ever near,
Does both health and strength bestow, Where no mad'ning liquors flow.

MORNING.
1 SOURCE of being, Holy Father, With the day's returning light. Round our board with thanks we gather,
For the mercies of the night.
2 Mercies that the stars outnumber,
Which their silent courses keep,— Angels guard that never slumber, While we lie and never sleep. |
