HYMN 87. L.M.
New-Year. (cont.)

5	Our helper God, in whom we trust, In better worlds, our souls shall boast.

HYMN 88. C.M.
The Birth of Christ.

1	AWAKE, awake the sacred song    To our incarnate Lord; Let ev'ry heart, and ev'ry tongue    Adore th' eternal Word.
2	Sinners awake, with angels join,    And chant the solemn lay; Joy, love, and gratitude combine,    To hail th' auspicious day.
3	Then shone almighty pow'r and love,    In all their glorious forms; When Jesus left his throne above,    To dwell with sinful worms.
4	Adoring angels tun'd their songs    To hail the joyful day; With rapture then, let mortal tongues    Their grateful worship pay.
5	Hail, Prince of life, for ever hail!    Redeemer, Brother, Friend! Tho' earth, and time, and life should fail,    Thy praise shall never end.

HYMN 89. L.M.
The Resurrection of Christ.

1	CHRIST, the Lord, is ris'n to-day, Sons of men and angels say; Raise your joys and triumphs high, Sing, ye heav'ns, and earth reply,
2	Love's redeeming work is done, Fought the 6ght, the kittle won: Lo! the sun's eclipse is o'er, Lo! he sets in blood no more.

HYMN 89. L.M.
The Resurrection of Christ. (cont.)

3	Vain the stone, the watch, the seal, Christ has burst the gate of hell; Death in vain forbids his rise, Christ hath open'd Paradise.
4	Lives again our glorious King! "Where, O death, is now thy sting!" Once he died our souls to save: "Where's thy vict'ry, boasting grave?"
5	Hail, the Lord of earth and heav'n! Praise to thee by both be giv'n! Thee we greet triumphant now, Hail! the RESURRECTION — Thou.

HYMN 90. P.M.
The Ascension and Kingdom of Christ.

1	REJOICE, the Lord is King, Th' ascended King adore; Mortals, give thanks, and sing And triumph evermore! Lift up the heart, lift up the voice, Rejoice aloud, ye saints, rejoice.
2	Rejoice, the Saviour reigns, The God of truth and love: When he had purg'd our stains, He took his seat above: Lift up the heart, lift up the voice, Rejoice aloud, ye saints, rejoice.
3	His kingdom cannot fail, He rules o'er earth and heav'n; The keys of death and hell Are to our Jesus giv'n: Lift up the heart, lift up the voice, Rejoice aloud, ye saints, rejoice.
4	Rejoice in glorious hope; Jesus the Judge shall come,
