forms of nature wear, One u-ni- ver sal garb of love.

3 And then the peace that Jesus brought,
The life of grace eternal beams,
And we by his example taught
Will prize the life his love redeems.

4 Delightful scene!-a world at rest-
A God of love-no grief, no fear-
A heavenly hope-a peaceful breast-
A smile unsullied by a tear !

Hymn 17.-EVENING HYMN.

Another fleeting day is gone,

Swept from the records of the year;
And still, with each successive sun,
Life's fading visions disappear.

Another fleeting day is gone,
But soon a fairer day shall rise,—

A day whose never-setting sun
Shall pour its light o'er cloudless skies.

Another fleeting day is gone;
In solemn silence rest my soul!

Bow down thy heart before his throne,
Who bids the morn and evening roll.
