SACRED SONGS
- THOU ART, O GOD.
- THE BIRD, LET LOOSE.
- FALLEN IS THY THRONE.
- WHO IS THE MAID?
- THIS WORLD IS ALL A FLEETING SHOW.
- OH THOU WHO DRY'ST THE MOURNER'S TEAR.
- WEEP NOT FOR THOSE.
- THE TURF SHALL BE MY FRAGRANT SHRINE.
- SOUND THE LOUD TIMBREL.
- GO, LET ME WEEP.
- COME NOT, OH LORD.
- WERE NOT THE SINFUL MARY'S TEARS.
- AS DOWN IN THE SUNLESS RETREATS.
- BUT WHO SHALL SEE.
- ALMIGHTY GOD!
- OH FAIR! OH PUREST!
- ANGEL OF CHARITY.
- BEHOLD THE SUN.
- LORD, WHO SHALL BEAR THAT DAY.
- OH, TEACH ME TO LOVE THEE.
- WEEP, CHILDREN OF ISRAEL.
- LIKE MORNING, WHEN HER EARLY BREEZE.
- COME, YE DISCONSOLATE.
- AWAKE, ARISE, THY LIGHT IS COME.
- THERE IS A BLEAK DESERT.
- SINCE FIRST THY WORD.
- HARK! 'TIS THE BREEZE.
- WHERE IS YOUR DWELLING, YE SAINTED?
- HOW LIGHTLY MOUNTS THE MUSE'S WING.
- GO FORTH TO THE MOUNT,
- IS IT NOT SWEET TO THINK, HEREAFTER.
- WAR AGAINST BABYLON.
