4 Ascended now, in glory bright,
Still one with us Thou art;

Nor life, nor death, nor depth, nor height,
Thy saints and Thee can part.

5 O teach us, Lord, to know and own
This wondrous mystery,

That Thou with us art truly one,

And we are one with Thee.

6 Soon, soon shall come that glorious day,
When, seated on Thy throne,

Thou shalt to wondering worlds display
That Thou with us art one.

WALK in the light! so shalt thou know That fellowship of love

His Spirit only can bestow,

Who reigns in light above.

2 Walk in the light! and thou shalt find
Thy heart made truly His
Who dwells in cloudless light enshrined,
In whom no darkness is.

3 Walk in the light! and thou shalt own Thy darkness passed away,

Because that light hath on thee shone, In which is perfect day.

4 Walk in the light! and e'en the tomb No fearful shade shall wear;

Glory shall chase away its gloom,

For Christ hath conquered there.

5 Walk in the light! and thine shall be
A path, though thorny, bright;
For God, by grace, shall dwell in thee,
And God Himself is light.

ROBINSON IIS.

Though faint, yet pursuing, we go on our way; The Lord is our leader, His word is our stay;

Though suffering, and sorrow,and tri-al be near, The Lord is our Refuge,and whom can we fear?
