#	Text	Tune
1	In this calm impressive hour
2	Now, from labor and from care
3	We lift our hearts to thee, O [Our] [Thou] Day-Star
4	Softly now the light of day
5	Thou, O Lord, didst hear my cry
6	Serene, I laid me down
7	How great the mercies from above
8	And now while daylight closes
9	On thee, each morning, O my God, My waking thoughts attend
10	My God, how endless [lasting] is thy love
11	The rosy light is dawning
12	Again the Lord of life and light
13	Lord of the Sabbath, thee we praise
14	Sweet is the last, the parting ray
15	Far from the world, O Lord, I [I'd] [we] flee
16	I love to steal awhile away
17	Now condescend, almighty king
18	The hour of deep solicitude
19	Encourage my heart with thy smile
20	How sweet on thy bosom to rest
21	Yes, there is One above who knows
22	O strange infirmity, to think
23	Why, when storms around you gather
24	Wait, my soul [heart] upon the Lord
25	Dear Lord, before thy throne
26	Give to the winds thy [your] fears
27	Dear refuge of my [the] weary soul, On thee, when sorows rise
28	Kindly the Lord appeared
29	Disdain not, O eternal King
30	The song of gratitude I'll raise
31	My God, thy service well demands
32	To thee, my God, my heart shall bring
33	Mother bids thee, lovely stranger
34	Say, while you press with growing love
35	Gentle stranger, fearless come
36	Blessings attend thee, little one
37	Thy life I read, my dearest [blessed] [gracious)],Lord
38	O Lord, encouraged by thy grace
39	How great thy mercies, Lord, How bounteous
40	The Savior kindly calls Our children
41	Behold what condescending love
42	See Isr'l's gentle Shepherd stand [stands]
43	Long as he lives he shall be thine
44	Forbid them not, the Savior cried
45	Lord, assist us by thy grace
46	Grant us wisdom, gracious Lord
47	Children listen to the Lord
48	God of mercy, hear our prayer
49	Ye hearts with youthful vigor warm
50	Almighty God, thy piercing eye
51	Lord, I confess before thy face
52	Come, Holy Spirit, come
53	Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly dove, with all thy quickening powers
54	Jesus, where'er thy people meet
55	Where two or three, with sweet accord
56	Wherever two or three may meet
57	Great God, we would to thee make known
58	Within these quiet walls, O Lord a fond
59	O Lord, behold us at thy feet
60	Great God, now condescend
61	Great God, with heart and tongue
62	Come let us join our souls to God
63	How large the promise, how divine
64	O God of Abram [Abraham], hear
65	My God the covenant of thy love abides forever sure
66	Thou God of sovereign grace
67	Dear Savior, if these lambs should stray
68	Lord, we bow with deep contrition
69	How did the pious Abram pray
70	Out of the mouth of infancy
71	Lord, teach a little child to pray
72	Lord, I would come to thee
73	Though we are simple, weak and young
74	There is a path that leads to God, All others go astray
75	Almighty God, while earth and heaven
76	Forbid them not to come
77	O Jesus, delight of my soul My Savior, my Shepherd divine
78	When the heart is sad within
79	Before thy footstool kneeling
80	How frail are these bodies of clay
81	Almighty God, I'm very ill
82	I thank the Lord, who lives on high
83	The pity of the Lord
84	So fades the lovely, blooming flower [flowers]
85	Life is a span, a fleeting hour
86	Alas how changed that lovely flower
87	Now, O Lord, to thee submitting
88	Why lament the Christian dying
89	When the vale [veil] of death appears
90	The relics of departed worth
91	O thou art the widow's God
92	My heavenly Father, I confess
93	The God of love will sure indulge
94	It is the Lord, my soul be still
95	Jesus, while our hearts are bleeding
96	Why, weep for those, frail child of woe
97	Hast thou lost a child most precious
98	O ye mourners, cease to languish
99	How tender is thy hand
100	Sweet fruits afflictions bring
