We gather together to ask tho Lord's hlp!lsingHe chastens and hastens His will to make k.n own ;The wicked oppressing cease them from distressing,Sing praises to His name, He forgets not His own.

Beside us to guide us, our God with us joining,Ordaining, maintaining His Kingdom divine,So from the beginning the fight we were winning,Thou, Lord, wast at our side, the glory be Thine!

We all do extol thee, thou Leader in battle,And pray that thou still our Defender wilt be,Let Thy congregation escape tribulationThy Name be ever praised; 0 Lord make us free!

THE JABBERWOCK(F'r-o m "Through the Lookmggta ss")

By Lewis Carroll

'Twas brillig and the sly thy tovesDid gyre and girnble in the wabe.Ai! m nnsy were the borogrovesAud the momeraths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son,The jaws that bite, the claws that scratch,Beware ths juh-jub bird, and shunThe frumious bander-snatch."

He took his vorpal sword in hand,Long time the manxome foe he sought,Then rested he 'neath the Tu m-tu m tree,And stood awhile in thought.

And as in uffish thought he stood,The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,Came whiffling through the tulgey wo orl ,And burbled as it came.

One! Two!-And through and throughThe vor pal blade went snicker-snack:He Ie tt it dead, and with its headHe went galumphing back.

"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?Come to my arms, my bearn ish hay!Ca ll oo , r-al Iay, calloo, ca.ll ay'".He chortled in his joy.

WHEI-tE l-<;'Fm YOU WJ ..LI\:

Where e'er yon walk, cool gales shall fan the glade,Trees where you sit, shall crowd into a shade.'Where e'er you tread, the blushing flowers shall riseAnd all things flourish, where e'er you turn you!" eyes.

THE }lAGIC SOXG

iVhen oft I sit and muse on theeIn dreamy mood, or glad,I know not what from thee I hoped,Nor know why I am sad.I only know by thy dear charmsEntranced, since we did sever,Thou hast with thy sweet magic songMy heart enthralled forever.And evermore this song I hear,That soft my soul enchanted,This melody so sweet, so dear,'With blissful mem'ries haunted.For since that day by endless loveEnthrall'd when we did sever,T only hear thy magic songCharming my heart forever.

SURR.EY SOj'lG

I was a man from Mitcham, and she from Croydon fared,To serve in Parson's kitchen, with rosy arms half-bared,She minced and roll'd beef pasty, she baked a mutton pie,And I was ever hasty, I kissed her on the sly.For it's Sutton for mutton, Carshalton for beef,Croydon for a pretty girl, and Mitcham for a thief.1\1years were soon burned scarlet, what way she cuffed me

then;"Shame on you thieving varlet, you're like all Mitcham mea."To prove I was nol st.caling , and took her words amiss,And show her honest dealing, I gave her back the kiss.For It.'s Sutton for mutton, Carshalton for beef,Croydon for a pretty girl, and Mitcham for a thief.

STAR EYES

I think he plucked two stars from out the velvet skies,The night that you were born, and made them your two eyes.All, else why the heav'nty light and why the heav'nly blue,And why the touch, the touch of God, that's in the eyes of you.

VIKING SONG

·tlJI,

Clang, clang, clang on the anvil,In the smithy by the dark North Sea;Is it Thor that is smiting with the hammer,Is it Odin with the leather on his knee?Clang, clang, clang on the anvil,There are steel ships wanted on the sea.

Clang, clang, clang on the anvil,And the flames of the forges leap.Old Thor with his red beard glowing,Has his eyes on the furrows of the deep.Clang, clang, clang on the anvil,For the forge of the Viking may not sleep.

Clang, clang, clang on the anvil,And the hammers of the island leap;Brittania with her bright hair glowing,Has her eye on the furrows of the deep.Clang, clang, clang on the anvil,For the blood of the Viking may not sleep.

Clang, clang, clang on the anvil,On the margin of the soul, bright sea,Is it Odin that is watching in the shadow?Is it Thor where the sparks fly free?Clang, clang, clang on the anvil,There are steel ships wanted on the sea.
