I He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

I will say of the Lord, He is my refttge and my fortress: my God/in htm will I trust. .

-2 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of -the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence .

./lle shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust:

:3 His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Thou shelt not be a/raid for the terror by night / nor for the arrow that flieth by day /

4. Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noon-day.

A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand / hut it shall not come nigh thee.

S Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my 1~efuge, even the Most High, thy hahitation/

6 There shall n(!) evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

For he shall give kls angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

7 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder .'

S The young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him:

9 I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

He shall call upon me, and I will answer hi1n :

10 I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor hitn.

With long Ufe will I saUsfy him, and shozo hint, my salvation.

Hymn No. I.

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty! Early in the morning our song shall rise to thee;

Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty, God in three persons, blessed Trinity!

Holy, holy, holy! all the saints adore thee, Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;

Cherubim and seraphim falling down before thee, Which wert and art and evermore shall be.

Holy, holy, holy! though the darkness hide thee, Though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see;

Only thou art holy; there is none beside thee, Perfect in power, in love and purity.

Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!

Gounod.

All thy works shall praise thy name, in earth and sky and sea; Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty;

God in three persons, blessed Trinity!

SERMON.-Rev. Bastian Smits, Charlotte, Mich., Subject, "The Unity of Life."

Solo, "When the Earth Wakes up in Gladness,"

MRS. JAMES P. EDMUNDS.

Hymn No. 849.

Benediction.

'Tis by the faith of joys to come, We walk through deserts dark as night;

Till we arrive at Heaven, our home, Faith is our guide, and faith our light.

The want of light she well supplies; She makes the pearly gates appear;

Far into distant worlds she pries, And brings eternal glories near.

Cheerful we tread the desert through While faith inspires a heavenly ray;

Though lions roar, and tempests blow J

And ·rocks and dangers fill the way.

Brown.
