Go forth in life, O friend!

Golden harps are sounding

Hail, beauteous stranger of the grove!

Hail, holy Light, offspring of Heaven's first-born!

Hand-in-hand with angels

Hark! the hours are softly calling

Hast thou within a care so deep

Have you heard the tale of the Aloe plant
Heaven is not reached at a single bound.
He closed the book and made it fast
He liveth long who liveth well!

Her Father sent her in His land to dwell

He sendeth sun, He sendeth shower

How beautiful the night.

How calmly sinks the parting sun!
How many days with mute adieu

How sweet it were, if without feeble fright

I am fading from you

I do not ask, O Lord, that life may be

If I had known in the morning

If I were told that I must die to-morrow

[blocks in formation]

If life's pleasures cheer thee

If suddenly upon the street

I have done at length with dreaming

I hear Hope singing, sweetly singing

I hear it often in the dark

I know not if the dark or bright

I know not the way I am going

I love my God, but with no love of mine

I love to wander through the woodlands hoary
"I'm of no use," said a little brown seed

In Athens, when all learning centred there
In a valley, centuries ago.

In holy books we read how God hath spoken.

In May, when sea-winds pierced

In the still air the music lies unheard

I reach a duty, yet I do it not

I saw two clouds at morning

I say to thee, do thou repeat

I sought Thee round about, O Thou my God!
Is thy cruse of comfort wasting?

I stood beside my window

It lies around us like a cloud

[merged small][merged small][ocr errors][merged small][merged small][ocr errors][merged small][merged small][merged small]

I think about the dead by day

I think we are too ready with complaint.

I thought of thee, my partner and my guide

I took a little good seed in my hand

I wandered lonely as a cloud

[ocr errors]

I worship thee, sweet will of God!
I would be ready, Lord

Jesus, Master, whose I am

Late, late, so late! and dark the night and chill
Late to our town there came a maid

Launch thy bark, mariner!

Lead, Kindly Light! amid the encircling gloom
Life! I know not what thou art

Listen to the water-mill

"Live while you live!" the epicure would say
Long did I toil, and knew no earthly rest
Lord, for the erring thought

Lord, it belongs not to my care

Lord, what a change within us one short hour

Master, to do great work for Thee
Mild offspring of a dark and sullen sire!
Motionless torrents! silent cataracts!
My fairest child, I have no song to give you
My life, which was so straight and plain .

Naked on parent's knees, a new-born child
Nauhaught, the Indian deacon

Near yonder copse, where once the garden smiled.

O Friends! with whom my feet have trod
Oft have I walked these woodland paths .

Oft I remember those whom I have known
O gather, gather! Stand

O happy glow! O sun-bathed tree! .

O happy house! where Thou art loved the best

Oh how the thought of God attracts

Oh winter! ruler of the inverted year

O lark! sweet lark! .

O little town of Bethlehem

O Love Divine, that stooped to share
O Maker of sweet poets!

[ocr errors]

O silence deep and strange

O Thou bright and beautiful day

O Thou, by long experience tried

O Thou, great Friend to all the sons of men
O Thou who dry'st the mourner's tear!
Our little systems have their day

Over my window the ivy climbs

Over the mountain wave

[ocr errors]

O where will be the birds that sing.

[ocr errors]

O, why should the spirit of mortal be proud?

Peace, troubled heart!

Press on there 's no such word as fail

Some hearts go hungering through the world

Some murmur when their sky is clear

Something new for Easter! Something new to wear! 281

Still young and fine, but what is still in view.
Sweet bird! that sing'st away the early hours
Sweet is the scene when virtue dies!

Take my life, and let it be

Take my soul and body's powers

That which weeping ones were saying
