112 But streams of grace from him o'erflow, Their thirst to satisfy.

6 When troubles, like a burning sun, Beat heavy on their head, To this almighty .Rock they run, And find a pleasing shade.

7 How glorious he ! how happy they In such a glorious Friend ! Whose love secures them all the way, And crowns them at the end.

1 GLORIOUS things of thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God ! He, whose word cannot be broken, Form d thee for his own abode : On the Rock of ages founded, What can shake thy sure repose? With salvation s walls surrounded, Thou may st smile at all thy foes.

2 See ! the streams of living waters Springing from eternal love, Well supply thy sons and daughters, And all fear of want remove : Who can faint while such a river Ever flows their thirst t assuage ? Grace, which, like the Lord, the giver, Never fails from age to age.

3 Round each habitation hov ring, See the cloud and fire appear ! For a glory and a cov ring, Showing that the Lord is near : Thus deriving from their banner Light by night, and shade by day ; Safe they feed upon the manna Which he gives them when they pray.
