Hymn 51
Tune:–Retreat.

HOW beauteous were the marks divine That in thy meekness used to shine, That lit thy lonely pathway, trod In wondrous love, O Son of God!

Oh, who like thee, so calm, so bright, So pure, so made to live in light? Oh, who like thee did ever go So patient through a world of woe?

Oh, who like thee so humbly bore The scorn, the scoffs of men, before? So meek, forgiving, godlike, high, So glorious in humility.

Oh, in thy light be mine to go, Illuming all my way of woe; And give me ever on the road To trace thy footsteps, Son of God.

Reading Scripture.

Lord’s Prayer.

Hymn. 306
Tune:–Berlin.

STILL, still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh, When the bird waketh and the shadows flee; Fairer than morning, lovelier than the daylight, Dawns the sweet consciousness, I am with thee.

So shall it be at last, in that bright morning When the soul waketh and life’s shadows flee; Oh, in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning, Shall rise the glorious thought, I am with thee.

Prayer.

Sermon.
Subject:
THE PERSONAL AND IMPERSONAL SAVIOUR.

⇉ Handshift:Mary Baker EddyCollection

⇉ Handshift:TypedHymn. 24
Tune:–Autumn.

PEACE be to this congregation! Peace to every heart therein! Peace, the earnest of salvation; Peace, the fruit of conquered sin; Peace, that speaks the heavenly Giver; Peace, to worldly minds unknown; Peace, that floweth, as a river, From the eternal Source alone.

O thou God of Peace, be near us, Fix within our hearts thy home; With thy bright appearing cheer us, In thy blessed freedom come. Come with all thy revelations, Truth which we so long have sought; Come with thy deep consolations, Peace of God which passeth thought!

Benediction.
