HYMN 1.

L. M.

“All people that on earth do dwell.”

All people that on earth do dwell,

Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice;

Him serve with fear, his praise forth tell,

Come ye before him and rejoice.

2

The Lord, ye know, is God indeed;

Without our aid he did us make;

We are his flock, he doth us feed;

And for his sheep he doth us take.

3

O enter then his gates with praise,

Approach with joy his courts unto:

Praise, laud and bless his name always;

For it is seemly so to do.

4

For why? The Lord our God is good;

His mercy is for ever sure;

His truth at all times firmly stood;

And shall from age to age endure.

5

Praise God from whom all blessings flow,

Praise him, all creatures here below;

Praise him above, ye heavenly host;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

HYMN 2.

C. M.

“All hail the power of Jesus’ name.”

All hail the power of Jesus’ name;

Let angels prostrate fall!

Bring forth the royal diadem,

And crown him Lord of all!

2

Ye chosen seed of Israel’s race,

A remnant weak and small.

Hail him, who saves you by his grace,

And crown him Lord of all!

3

Ye Gentile sinners, ne’er forget

The wormwood and the gall;

Go, spread your trophies at his feet,

And crown him Lord of all!

4

Let ev’ry kindred, ev’ry tribe,

On this terrestrial ball,

To him all majesty ascribe,

And crown him Lord of all!

5

O that with yonder sacred throng,

We at his feet may fall;

We’ll join the everlasting song,

And crown him Lord of all!

HYMN 3.

“Pass me not, O gentle Saviour.”

Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,

Hear my humble cry;

While on others thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

CHORUS:—

Saviour, Saviour, hear my humble cry;

While on others thou art calling,

Do not pass me by.

2

Let me at a throne of mercy

Find a sweet relief;

Kneeling there in deep contrition,

Help my unbelief.

3

Trusting only in thy merit,

Would I seek thy face;

Heal my wounded, broken spirit,

Save me by thy grace.

4

Thou the spring of all my comfort,

More than life to me:

Whom have I on earth beside thee?

Whom in heaven but thee?

5

Pass me not, O gentle Saviour

Thou canst make me see;

Thy salvation, Jesus, Saviour!

Speak some word to me.

[7]

NUHGUHMOOWIN 3.

“Pass me not, O gentle Saviour.”

HYMN 4.

8s 7s 3s.

“Lord, I hear of showers of blessing.”

Lord, I hear of showers of blessing

Thou art scattering full and free—

Showers the thirsty land refreshing;

Let some droppings fall on me—

CHORUS.—E-ven me, e-ven me,

Let thy blessing fall on me.

2

Pass me not, O gracious Father!

Sinful though my heart may be;

Thou might’st leave me, but the rather

Let Thy mercy fall on me.

3

Pass me not, O tender Saviour!

Let me love and cling to Thee;

I am longing for Thy favor;

Whilst Thou’rt calling, oh, call me.

4

Pass me not, O mighty Spirit!

Thou can’st make the blind to see;

Witnesser of Jesus’ merit.

Speak the word of power to me.

5

Love of God, so pure and changeless;

Blood of Christ, so rich and free;

Grace of God, so strong and boundless,

Magnify them all in me.

“Lord, I hear of showers of blessing.”

HYMN 5.

S. M.

“Forever with the Lord.”

For ever with the Lord:

Amen, so let it be,

Life from the dead is in that word,

’Tis immortality.

2

Here in the body pent,

Absent from him I roam,

Yet nightly pitch my moving tent

A day’s march nearer home.

3

My Father’s house on high,

Home of my soul, how near

At times to faith’s foreseeing eye

Thy golden gates appear!

4

Ah, then my spirit faints

To reach the land I love,

The bright inheritance of saints,

Jerusalem above.

5

I hear at morn and even,

At noon and midnight hour,

The choral harmonies of heaven

Earth’s Babel-tongues o’erpower.

6

That resurrection word,

That shout of victory,

Once more, For ever with the Lord:

Amen, so let it be.

[11]

NUHGUHMOOWIN 5.

S. M.

“For ever with the Lord.”

[12]

HYMN 6.

L. M.

“Awake, my soul, and with the sun.”

Awake, my soul, and with the sun

Thy daily stage of duty run:

Shake off dull sloth, and early rise,

To pay thy morning sacrifice.

2

Redeem thy misspent moments past,

And live this day as if thy last;

Thy talents to improve take care;

For the great day thyself prepare.

3

Let all thy converse be sincere,

Thy conscience as the noonday clear;

For God’s all-seeing eye surveys

Thy secret thoughts, thy words and ways.

4

Wake, and lift up thyself, my heart,

And with the angels take thy part;

Who all night long unwearied sing

High glory to the eternal King.

5

Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;

Praise him, all creatures here below;

Praise him above, ye heavenly host;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

[13]

NUHGUHMOOWIN 6.

L. M.

“Awake, my soul, and with the sun.”

HYMN 7.

L. M.

“Glory to thee, my God, this night.”

Glory to thee, my God, this night,

For all the blessings of the light.

Keep me, O keep me, King of kings,

Beneath thine own almighty wings!

2

Forgive me, Lord, for thy dear son,

The ill that I this day have done;

That with the world, myself and thee,

I, ere I sleep, at peace may be.

3

Teach me to live, that I may dread

The grave as little as my bed;

Teach me to die, that so I may

Rise glorious at the awful day.

4

O let my soul on thee repose!

And may sweet sleep mine eyelids close;

Sleep that shall me more vigorous make

To serve my God when I awake.

5

If in the night I sleepless lie,

My soul with heavenly thoughts supply;

Let no ill dreams disturb my rest,

No powers of darkness me molest.

6

Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;

Praise Him, all creatures here below;

Praise him above, ye heavenly host;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

HYMN 8.

C. M.

“While shepherds watch’d their flocks by night.”

While shepherds watched their flocks by night,

All seated on the ground,

The angel of the Lord came down,

And glory shone around.

2

“Fear not,” said he, (for mighty dread

Had seized their troubled mind,)

“Glad tidings of great joy I bring

To you and all mankind.

3

“To you in David’s town this day

Is born, of David’s line,

The Saviour, who is Christ the Lord;

And this shall be the sign:

4

“The heavenly babe you there shall find

To human view display’d,

All meanly wrapp’d in swathing bands,

And in a manger laid.”

5

Thus spake the seraph, and forthwith

Appear’d a shining throng

Of angels praising God, on high,

And thus addressed their song:

6

“All glory be to God on high,

And to the earth be peace;

Good will henceforth, from heaven to men,

Begin and never cease.”

[17]

NUHGUHMOOWIN 8.

“While shepherds watch’d their flocks by night.”

[18]

HYMN 9.

C. M.

“There is a land of pure delight.”

There is a land of pure delight,

Where saints immortal reign:

Infinite day excludes the night,

And pleasures banish pain.

2

There everlasting spring abides,

And never-withr’ing flowers:

Death like a narrow sea divides

That heavenly land from ours.

3

Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood

Stand dressed in living green:

So to the Jews fair Canaan stood,

While Jordan roll’d between.

4

But tim’rous mortals start and shrink

To cross that narrow sea;

And linger shiv’ring on the brink,

And fear to launch away.

5

O could we make our doubts remove,

Those gloomy doubts that rise,

And see the Canaan that we love,

With unbeclouded eyes!

6

Could we but climb where Moses stood,

And view the landscape o’er,

Not Jordan’s stream, nor death’s cold flood,

Should fright us from the shore.

[19]

NUHGUHMOOWIN 9.

C. M.

“There is a land of pure delight.”

HYMN 10.

C. M.

“O for a thousand tongues to sing.”

O for a thousand tongues to sing

My great Redeemer’s praise!

The glories of my God and King,

The triumphs of his grace.

2

My gracious Master, and my God,

Assist me to proclaim,

To spread through all the earth abroad

The honours of Thy name.

3

Jesus! the name that charms our fears,

That bids our sorrows cease;

’Tis music in the sinner’s ears,

’Tis life, and health, and peace.

4

He breaks the power of cancell’d sin;

He sets the pris’ner free;

His blood can make the foulest clean;

His blood avail’d for me.

5

Look unto Him, ye nations; own

Your God, ye fallen race;

Look and be saved through faith alone;

Be justified by grace.

6

See all your sins on Jesus laid;

The Lamb of God was slain;

His soul was once an off’ring made

For every soul of man.

[21]

HYMN 11.

C. M.

“How bright these glorious spirits shine.”

How bright these glorious spirits shine!

Whence all their white array?

How came they to the blissful seats

Of everlasting day?

2

Lo! these are they, from sufferings great,

Who came to realms of light;

And in the blood of Christ have wash’d

Those robes, which shine so bright.

3

Now, with triumphant palms, they stand

Before the throne on high

And serve the God they love, amidst

The glories of the sky,

4

His presence fills each heart with joy,

Tunes every mouth to sing;

By day, by night, the sacred courts

With glad Hosannas ring.

5

The Lamb, which dwells amidst the throne,

Shall o’er them still preside,

Feed them with nourishment divine,

And all their footsteps guide.

6

In pastures green He’ll lead his flock

Where living streams appear;

And God the Lord from every eye

Shall wipe off every tear.

HYMN 12.

8, 7, 4.

“Lo! he comes with clouds descending.”

Lo! he comes with clouds descending,

Once for favor’d sinners slain;

Thousand thousand saints attending

Swell the triumph of his train;

Hallelujah!

God appears on earth to reign.

2

Every eye shall now behold him,

Robed in dreadful majesty;

Those who set at nought and sold him,

Pierced and nailed him to the tree,

Deeply wailing,

Shall the true Messiah see.

3

Now redemption, long expected,

See in solemn pomp appear;

All his saints, by men rejected,

Now shall meet him in the air;

Hallelujah!

See the day of God appear.

4

Yea, Amen; let all adore thee,

High on thine eternal throne;

Saviour, take the power and glory;

Claim the kingdom for thine own.

O come quickly,

Everlasting God, come down.

HYMN 13.

6 lines 7’s.

“Rock of Ages, cleft for me.”

Rock of ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in thee!

Let the water and the blood,

From thy riven side which flow’d,

Be of sin the double cure,

Cleanse me from its guilt and power.

2

Not the labours of my hands,

Can fulfil thy law’s demands;

Could my zeal no respite know,

Could my tears for ever flow;

All for sin could not atone,

Thou must save, and thou alone.

3

Nothing in my hand I bring,

Simply to thy cross I cling;

Naked, come to thee for dress;

Helpless, look to thee for grace;

Foul, I to the fountain fly;

Wash me, Saviour, or I die!

4

While I draw this fleeting breath,

When my eyelids close in death,

When I soar to worlds unknown,

See thee on thy judgment throne,

Rock of ages, cleft for me,

Let me hide myself in thee!

“How sweet the name of Jesus sounds.”

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds

In a believer’s ear;

It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds,

And drives away his fear.

2

It makes the wounded spirit whole,

And calms the troubled breast;

’Tis manna to the hungry soul,

And to the weary, rest.

3

Dear name, the rock on which I build,

My shield and hiding-place;

My never-failing treasury, fill’d

With boundless stores of grace.

4

Jesu, my Shepherd, Husband, Friend,

My Prophet, Priest and King,

My Lord, my life, my way, my end,—

Accept the praise I bring.

5

Weak is the effort of my heart,

And cold my warmest thought;

But, when I see thee as thou art,

I’ll praise thee as I ought.

6

Till then I would thy love proclaim

With every fleeting breath;

And may the music of thy name

Refresh my soul in death.

“Hark! My soul it is the Lord.”

Hark! my soul, it is the Lord;

’Tis thy Saviour; hear his word;

Jesus speaks, and speaks to thee:

“Say, poor sinner, lov’st thou me?“

2

I deliver’d thee when bound,

And when bleeding, heal’d thy wound;

Sought thee wandering, set thee right,

Turned thy darkness into light.

3

Can a woman’s tender care

Cease towards the child she bare?

Yes, she may forgetful be,

Yet will I remember thee.

4

Mine is an unchanging love,

Higher than the heights above,

Deeper than the depths beneath,

Free and faithful, strong as death.

5

Thou shalt see my glory soon,

When the work of grace is done:

Partner of my throne shalt be,

“Say, poor sinner, lov’st thou me?”

6

Lord, it is my chief complaint

That my love is cold and faint:

Yet I love thee, and adore;

O for grace to love thee more.

Hark! the glad sound, the Saviour comes,

The Saviour promised long;

Let every heart prepare a throne,

And every voice a song.

2

Our glad Hosannas, Prince of Peace,

Thy welcome shall proclaim;

And heaven’s eternal arches ring

With thy beloved name.

3

He comes the prisoners to release,

In Satan’s bondage held;

The gates of brass before him burst,

The iron fetters yield.

4

He comes from thickest films of vice

To clear the mental ray,

And on the eye balls of the blind

To pour celestial day.

5

He comes the broken heart to bind,

The bleeding soul to cure;

And with the treasures of his grace

To enrich the humble poor.

“Am I a soldier of the cross.”

Am I a soldier of the cross,

A follower of the Lamb?

And shall I fear to own his cause,

Or blush to speak his name?

2

Must I be carried to the skies

On flowery beds of ease;

While others fought to win the prize,

And sail’d through bloody seas?

3

Are there no foes for me to face?

Must I not stem the flood?

Is this vile world a friend to grace,

To help me on to God?

4

Sure, I must fight, if I would reign;

Increase my courage, Lord;

I’ll bear the toil, endure the pain,

Supported by thy word.

5

Thy saints in all this glorious war

Shall conquer, though they die;

They see the triumph from afar,

By faith they bring it nigh.

When that illustrious day shall rise,

And all thine armies shine

In robes of victory through the skies,

The glory shall be thine.

Come let us join our cheerful songs

With angels round the throne;

Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,

But all their joys are one.

“To be exalted thus;”

“Worthy the Lamb,” our lips reply,

For he was slain for us.

Honor and power divine;

And blessings more than we can give,

Be, Lord, for ever thine.

Let all that dwell above the sky,

And air, and earth, and seas,

Conspire to lift thy glories high,

And speak thine endless praise!

And to adore the Lamb.

But children of the heavenly King

Or walk the golden streets.

To fairer worlds on high.

Sung by flaming tongues above;

Praise the mount—I’m fix’d upon it:

Mount of thy redeeming love!

Here I raise mine Ebenezer,

Hither by thy help I’m come;

And I hope, by thy good pleasure,

Safely to arrive at home.

Wand’ring from the fold of God;

He, to rescue me from danger,

Interposed his precious blood.

Daily I’m constrained to be!

Let thy goodness, like a fetter,

Bind my wand’ring heart to thee:

Prone to leave the God I love—

Here’s my heart, O take and seal it,

Seal it for thy courts above!

To hide thee from thy servant’s eyes.

My wearied eyelids gently steep,

Be my last thought, how sweet to rest

For ever on my Saviour’s breast.

Abide with me from morn till eve,

For without thee I cannot live;

Abide with me when night is nigh,

For without thee I dare not die.

Has spurned, to-day, the voice divine,

Now, Lord, the gracious work begin;

Let him no more lie down in sin.

Watch by the sick; enrich the poor

With blessings from thy boundless store;

Be every mourner’s sleep to-night

Like infant slumbers, pure and light.

Ere through the world our way we take,

Till in the ocean of thy love

We lose ourselves in heav’n above.

Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!

That calls me from a world of care,

And bids me at my Father’s throne

Make all my wants and wishes known;

In seasons of distress and grief,

My soul has often found relief;

And oft escaped the tempter’s snare,

By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.

Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!

Thy wings shall my petition bear,

To him whose truth and faithfulness,

Engage the waiting soul to bless;

And since he bids me seek his face,

Believe his word, and trust his grace,

I’ll cast on him my every care,

And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer.

3

Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!

May I thy consolation share;

Till, from Mount Pisgah’s lofty height,

I view my home and take my flight.

This robe of flesh I’ll drop, and rise

To seize the everlasting prize;

And shout, while passing through the air,

Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer!

“Jesus, lover of my soul.”

Jesus, lover of my soul,

Let me to thy bosom fly

While the nearer waters roll,

While the tempest still is high:

Hide me, O my Saviour, hide,

Till the storm of life be past;

Safe into the haven guide,

O receive my soul at last!

2

Other refuge have I none,

Hangs my helpless soul on thee,

Leave, ah! leave me not alone,

Still support and comfort me:

All my trust on thee is stay’d;

All my help from thee I bring;

Cover my defenceless head

With the shadow of thy wing.

3

Plenteous grace with thee is found,

Grace to cover all my sin;

Let the healing streams abound,

Make and keep me pure within:

Thou of life the fountain art;

Freely let me take of thee;

Spring thou up within my heart,

Rise to all eternity.

“Children of the heavenly King.”

Children of the heavenly King,

As ye journey, sweetly sing;

Sing your Saviour’s worthy praise,

Glorious in his works and ways.

2

We are travelling home to God,

In the way the fathers trod:

They are happy now; and we

Soon their happiness shall see.

3

Shout, ye little flock and blest;

You on Jesus’ throne shall rest:

There your seat is now prepared,

There your kingdom and reward.

4

Lift your eyes, ye sons of light;

Zion’s city is in sight;

There our endless home shall be,

There our Lord we soon shall see.

5

Fear not, brethren; joyful stand

On the borders of your land;

Christ, the everlasting Son,

Bids you undismay’d go on.

6

Lord, obediently we go,

Gladly leaving all below:

Only thou our leader be,

And we still will follow thee.

“Abide with me, fast falls the eventide.”

Abide with me, fast falls the eventide;

The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide.

When other helpers fail, and comforts flee,

Help of the helpless, O abide with me.

2

Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;

Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away,

Change and decay in all around I see;

O thou, who changest not, abide with me.

3

I need thy presence every passing hour;

What but thy grace can foil the tempter’s power?

Who, like thyself, my guide and stay can be?

Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.

4

I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless;

Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness,

Where is death’s sting? where grave, thy victory?

I triumph still, if thou abide with me.

5

Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes;

Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies;

Heaven’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee;

In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

“I heard the voice of Jesus say.”

I heard the voice of Jesus say,

“Come unto me and rest;

Lay down, thou weary one, lay down

Thy head upon my breast.”

2

I came to Jesus as I was—

Weary, and worn, and sad;

I found in him a resting place,

And he has made me glad.

3

I heard the voice of Jesus say,

“Behold I freely give

The living water—thirsty one

Stoop down, and drink, and live.”

4

I came to Jesus, and I drank

Of that life-giving stream;

My thirst was quench’d, my soul reviv’d

And now I live in him.

5

I heard the voice of Jesus say,

“I am this dark world’s light;

Look unto me, thy morn shall rise,

And all thy day be bright.”

6

I looked to Jesus, and I found

In him my Star, my Sun;

And in that Light of Life I’ll walk

Till earthly days are done.

Spirit Divine, attend our prayers,

And make this house thy home;

Descend with all thy gracious powers,

O come, Great Spirit, come.

2

Come as the light; to us reveal

Our emptiness and woe:

And lead us in those paths of life,

Where all the righteous go.

3

Come as the fire, and purge our hearts

Like sacrificial flame;

Let our whole soul an offering be

To our Redeemer’s name.

4

Come as the dew, and sweetly bless

This consecrated hour;

May barrenness rejoice to own

Thy fertilizing power.

5

Come as the dove, and spread thy wings,

The wings of peaceful love;

And let thy church on earth become

Bless’d as the church above.

Spirit Divine, attend our prayers;

Make a lost world thy home;

Descend with all thy gracious powers,

Jerusalem, my happy home,

Name ever dear to me,

When shall my labours have an end

In joy, and peace, and thee?

2

When shall these eyes thy heavenly walls,

And pearly gates behold,

Thy bulwarks with salvation strong,

And streets of shining gold?

3

There happier bowers than Eden’s bloom,

Nor sin nor sorrow know:

Blest seats! ’mid rude and stormy scenes,

I onward press to you.

4

Why should I shrink from pain and woe,

Or feel at death dismay?

I’ve Canaan’s goodly land in view,

And realms of endless day.

5

Apostles, martyrs, prophets, there,

Around my Saviour stand,

And soon my friends in Christ below

Will join the glorious band.

6

Jerusalem, my happy home,

My soul still pants for thee:

Then shall my labours have an end,

When I thy joys shall see.

“Shall we gather at the river.”

Shall we gather at the river

Where bright angel feet have trod;

With its crystal tide for ever

Flowing by the throne of God?

CHO.—Yes, we’ll gather at the river,

The beautiful, the beautiful river—

Gather with the saints at the river,

That flows by the throne of God.

2

On the margin of the river,

Washing up its golden spray,

We will walk and worship ever

All the happy, golden day.

3

Ere we reach the shining river,

Lay we every burden down;

Grace our spirits will deliver

And provide a robe and crown.

4

At the smiling of the river,

Mirror of the Saviour’s face,

Saints whom death will never sever,

Lift their songs of saving grace.

5

Soon we’ll reach the shining river,

Soon our pilgrimage will cease;

Soon our happy hearts will quiver

With the melody of peace.

There’s a land that is fairer than day,

And by faith we can see it afar,

For the father waits over the way,

To prepare us a dwelling place there.

We shall meet on that beautiful shore;

In the sweet bye and bye,

We shall sing on that beautiful shore,

The melodious songs of the blest,

And our spirits shall sorrow no more,

Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.

3

To our bountiful Father above,

We will offer our tribute of praise,

For the glorious gift of his love,

And the blessings that hallow our days.

We shall meet, we shall sing, we shall reign,

In the land where the saved never die;

We shall rest free from sorrow and pain,

Safe at home in the sweet bye and bye.

My faith looks up to thee,

Thou Lamb of Calvary,

Saviour divine;

Now hear me while I pray,

Take all my guilt away,

O let me from this day

Be wholly thine.

2

May thy rich grace impart

Strength to my fainting heart,

My zeal inspire:

As thou hast died for me,

O may my love to thee

Pure, warm, and changeless be,

A living fire.

3

While life’s dark maze I tread,

And griefs around me spread,

Be thou my guide;

Bid darkness turn to day,

Wipe sorrow’s tears away,

Nor let me ever stray

From thee aside.

4

When ends life’s transient dream,

When death’s cold sullen stream

Shall o’er me roll;

Blest Saviour, then in love

Fear and distrust remove;

O bear me safe above,

A ransom’d soul.

Darkness come over me,

My rest a stone;

Yet in my dreams I’d be

Nearer, my God, to Thee,

Nearer, my God, to Thee,

Nearer to Thee!

There let my way appear

Steps unto heav’n;

All that thou sendest me

In mercy giv’n;

Angels to beckon me

Nearer, my God, to Thee,

Nearer, my God, to Thee,

Nearer to Thee.

4

Then with my waking thoughts

Bright with thy praise,

Out of my stony griefs

Bethels I’ll raise;

So by my woes to be

Nearer, my God, to Thee,

Nearer, my God, to Thee,

Nearer to Thee!

5

And when on joyful wing

Cleaving the sky,

Sun, moon, and stars forgot,

Upwards I fly,

Still all my song shall be,

Nearer to Thee.

Mine art thou to guide my feet;

Mine, to judge, condemn, acquit.

3

Mine, to comfort in distress,

If the Holy Spirit bless;

Mine, to show by living faith

Man can triumph over death.

4

Mine, to tell of joys to come,

Light and life beyond the tomb;

Holy Bible, book divine,

Precious treasure, thou art mine.

“Gentle Jesu, Meek and Mild.”

Gentle Jesu, meek and mild,

Look upon a little child;

Pity my simplicity,

Suffer me to come to thee.

2

Fain I would to thee be brought;

Dearest Lord, forbid it not;

Give me, dearest Lord, a place

In the kingdom of thy grace.

3

Lamb of God, I look to thee;

Thou shalt my example be;

Thou are gentle, meek and mild,

Thou wast once a little child.

4

Loving Jesu, gentle Lamb,

In thy gracious hands I am;

Make me, Saviour, what thou art,

Live thyself within my heart.

If you are redistributing or providing access to a work with the phrase “Project Gutenberg” associated with or appearing on the work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the Project Gutenberg™ trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.

Royalty payments must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in Section 4, “Information about donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.”

- • You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg™ License. You must require such a user to return or destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg™ works.

- • You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days of receipt of the work.

- • You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free distribution of Project Gutenberg™ works.

1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg™ electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the manager of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark. Contact the Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.

1.F.

1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project Gutenberg™ collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg™ electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment.

1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the “Right of Replacement or Refund” described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark, and any other party distributing a Project Gutenberg™ electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further opportunities to fix the problem.

1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you ‘AS-IS’, WITH NO OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.

1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone providing copies of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works in accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg™ work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg™ work, and (c) any Defect you cause.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™

Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state’s laws.

The Foundation’s business office is located at 809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up to date contact information can be found at the Foundation’s website and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
