1	Father, thy paternal care
2	Suppliant, lo, thy children bend
3	While nature welcomes in the day
4	Ye tribes of Adam join
5	On thy fair bosom, silver lake
6	Praise the Lord, ye heavens adore him
7	Along the banks where Babel's current flows
8	Begin, my soul, the exalted lay
9	The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know
10	The gift indulgent heaven bestows
11	Oh! blest art thou whose steps may rove
12	There seems a voice in every gale
13	A little word in kindness spoken
14	How fine has the day been, how bright was the sun
15	Sweet day, so cool, so calm, so bright
16	Watchman, tell us of the night
17	How dear to my heart are the scenes of my childhood
18	Lo the heavens are breaking
19	When twilight's gray and pensive hour
20	Behold the western evening light
21	Brightest and best of the stars of the morning
22	There is a pure, a peaceful wave
23	Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish
24	The bird let loose in eastern skies
25	Gently glides the stream of life
26	Far from mortal cares retreating
27	When shall we three meet again
28	There's nothing bright above, below
29	In sleep's serene oblivion laid
30	My country, 'tis of thee
31	How cheering the thought that the spirits in bliiss
32	The sunset is calm on the face of the deep
33	Sister, thou wast mild and lovely
34	Like a dream when one awaketh
35	When marshalled on the nightly plain
36	By cool Siloam's shady rill
37	Father, whate'er of earthly bliss
38	Soft, soft, music is stealing
39	Softly now the light of day
40	Before the rosy dawn of day
41	O joy to thee, joy to thee daughter of sorrow
42	When the vale of death appears
43	While with ceaseless course the sun
44	Go, when the morning shineth
45	If solid happiness we prize
46	Time is winging us away
47	Arrayed in clouds of golden light
48	There is an hour of hallowed peace
49	Happy the meek, whose gentle breast
50	See how, beneath the moon beam's smile
51	Ye Christian heralds! go proclaim
52	So fades the lovely, blooming flower
53	How blest the sacred tie that binds
54	God bless our native land, Firm may she
55	Sleep forsake us! may the soul
56	Soon may the last glad song arise
57	Far, far o'er hill and dell
58	I would not live always, I ask not to stay
59	O thou whose power o'er moving worlds presides
60	Traveller! dost thou hear the tidings
61	Vale of the cross, the shepherds tell
62	I love to steal awhile away
63	The humblest flower that decks the vale
64	How sweet to be allowed to pray
65	Awake, my soul, and with the sun
66	Forgive thy foes, nor that alone
67	The pity of the Lord
68	Bright was the guiding star that led
69	The mellow eve is gliding
70	Lo the blithesome lark is soaring
71	There is a mild and tranquil light
72	While Thee I seek, protecting Power
73	The rose that blooms in Sharon's vale
74	Thou sweet gliding Cedron, by thy silver stream
75	Gently, Lord, O gently lead us
76	The Prince of salvation in triumph is riding
77	How sweet, how heavenly is the sight
78	See the gleams of daylight swim
79	Softly beam the dews of morning
80	From Greenland's icy mountains
81	Blest are the pure in heart
82	There is an hour of peaceful rest
83	Come to the sunset tree
84	Safely through another week
85	There is not in the wide world a valley so sweet
86	When I can read my title clear
87	O Pilot, 'tis a fearful night
88	How vain is all beneath the skies!
89	When shall we meet again
90	The scene was more beautiful far to my eye
91	As every day, thy mercy spares
92	O how brightly how brightly the sun moves along
93	Lord, lead my heart to learn
94	God that madest earth and heaven
95	Be thou, O God, by night, by day
96	Let us love one another, not long may we stay
97	Let us with a joyful mind
98	Sweet is the scene when virtue dies!
99	Child amidst the flowers at play
100	The spacious firmament on high
