to prayto him, to study his will, to meditate upon him and to lovehim, all these bring great pleasure and peace along with them.What greater contentment and satisfaction can there be to themind of man, when it is once purified and refined from thedregs of sensual pleasures and delights, and raised to its trueheight and pitch, than to contemplate and admire the infiniteexcellencies and perfections of God, to adore his greatnessand to love his goodness ? Tillotson. M O R N I N G.—M A Y 25. GLORY IN THE CROSS. When I survey the wondrous cross,On which the Prince of Glory died, My richest gain I count but loss.And pour contempt on all my pride. Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,Save in the death of Christ my God; All the vain things that charm me mostI sacrifice them to his blood. His dying crimson, like a robe,Spreads oer his body on the tree ; Then I am dead to all the globe,And all the globe is dead to me. w Now Publishing, in Parts, Price One Shilling or Twenty-five Cents, each.
