OUR LOVED ONES GONE BEFORE. Concluded.

2 Hark! the words of our Master, be faithful, watch and pray,

Press on where joys eternal flow;

Let us journey together along the shining way,
And sing rejoicing as we go. Cho.

3 We are pilgrims to Zion, though trials we must bear,
Will count them blessings in disguise;

15

Though the cross may be heavy, the crown we soo
shall wear,

In heaven, where pleasure never dies. Cho.
When we walk thro' the valley and shadow of the tomb,
Dear Saviour thou wilt be our guide;

Thy smile like a sunbeam shall light beyond the gloom
And keep the ransomed at thy side. Cho.

THERE'S A CROWN FOR YOU AND ME.

2 There's a harp for you and me,

When we meet beyond the river, There from pain and sorrow free,

We shall strike its chords forever;

Where the angel hosts above

Wake their joyful chorus, Welcomed by the friends we love,

Dear ones gone before us;

3

Pilgrims on a troubled tide,
Where the surges darkly rise,
Jesus, thou wilt safely guide,
To mansions in the skies.
There's a home for you and me,
When we meet beyond the river,
There from pain and sorrow free,

We shall dwell with Christ forever;

In that sunny region bright,

We shall find our treasure, Faith be sweetly lost in sight, Hope in endless pleasure: Pilgrims on the earth no more,

We shall pass the troubled deep Where the billows cease to roar, And storms are lulled to sleep. (V)

4 And when I reach the mansion He has prepared for me, "Twill be my grateful pleasure My Saviour's face to see. And 'mid the angel's music, Which then will greet my ear, How eagerly I'll listen

My Saviour's voice to hear.

O'er earth and ocean flow,

Till morn to eve, and noon to night,

And heaven to earth reply. CHO. Hosanna, &c.

4 Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna!

Hosanna, sound from church and hall, Let every voice ascend.

And this our watchword, one and all,

Hosanna, praise the Lord. CHO. Hosanna, &c.

Tho' we meet in di-vis-ions, in church or in hall, Yet the banner of Je-sus floats over us all, Yet the
