1	When Faith, too young for a sublimer creed
2	By Babel's streams Thy children wept; Then mute, O Israel! was thy choir
3	Israel! to holy numbers
4	Before the glorious orbs of light
5	One God! One Lord! One mighty King!
6	O God! as we on nature gaze
7	Glorified, throughout all time
8	The Lord of heaven reigns
9	In God, the holy, wise, and just
10	Divine Disposer of events!
11	Almighty God! whose will alone
12	Wherefore Hallelujah sing
13	I tremble not! Thou, Lord, art nigh
14	Not for affliction, gracious God!
15	When light broke forth at God's command
16	O King of glory! when we contemplate
17	O'er all this wide and beauteous earth
18	Weeping, and loth from all she loved to part
19	I will extol thee, O my King!
20	How cold that man! to faith how dead!
21	I will still remain with Thee
22	We look to Thee, ineffable King!
23	The sun shines on with glorious light
24	Lo! He sleeps and slumbers not
25	Fear not, fear not, O Jeshurun
26	Unless the land where ye abide
27	O God! within Thy temple-walls
28	Exult, my soul, in consciousness proud
29	God of power! in Thy gift
30	Oh! what avails my destination
31	Oh! turn at meek devotion's call
32	How long will man in pleasure merged
33	Man of the world! wilt thou not pause
34	In holiness, eternal Lord!
35	"Blest is the man to whom the Lord
36	Oh! how imperfect, blind, and false
37	The heavens, Almighty! Thy glory declare
38	Lord, me Redeemer and my Rock!
39	God of my fathers! merciful and just
40	When morning paints the eastern sky
41	A mournful lament for the dead!
42	Though man of all the ruin hears
43	Through the valley of tears as we thoughtfully stray
44	O man! frail child of finite pow'rs!
45	O Thou! who dwell'st in heights supernal
46	Let choral songs of gladness flow
47	Lord! when I hear Thy holy law
48	To smile when we on life's breakers are tost
49	Remember, man! while thou art young
50	Blest are the enlight'ners of mankind
51	Lord! what is man, that Thou should'st take
52	Glory not in a gift so vain
53	Formless and void creation stood
54	Oh! how shall man with God contend
55	Though sorrows may be multiplied
56	Deep silence reigned in Isaac's tent
57	I weep not now as once I wept
58	O God! to Thy paternal grace
59	Let thy heart forever delight in the Lord
60	Rebuke me not nor chasten me
61	I lift mine eyes unto the hills
62	Though I from kindred meet from scorn
63	"Why art thou cast down, my soul?"
64	When grief on the heart has weighed
65	Oh! love the Lord with all thy heart
66	With ardent love and reverence deep
67	To man with reason's gift endued
68	God Supreme! to Thee I pray
69	Oh! that on morning's dewy wings
70	Draw nigh, O Lord! unto my soul
71	I wept when from my eager grasp
72	Oh Thou! in whom the power dwells
73	"Affliction cometh not from dust
74	Healer of the wounded heart!
75	Lord! let Thy countenance now shine
76	Despond not, O my heart!
77	Many are the pains and sorrows
78	When I would smile, remembrance brings
79	God of the universe! unfailing friend
80	Frail, feeble, inefficient man!
81	My God! my God! to Thee I cling
82	While man explores, with curious eye
83	Descend into thyself, my soul!
84	Why, O heedless mortal! dost thou fly
85	In glory, Lord! dost Thou appear
86	Hearken not, man! to the voice of self-love
87	Out of sorrow's depths I cry
88	On Shinar's plain see Babel's tower rise
89	My God, my Father, and my Guide!
90	In the great scales of human life
91	Oh! whence doth human happiness arise?
92	On dim futurity, with idle aim
93	Let me for present hours borrow
94	Oh! where is he who yesterday
95	Hear my voice and grant my pray'r
96	O thou! possest of health and bloom
97	Let the standard of truth by Judah be planted
98	Early and late my God I seek
99	Father! will abstinence, or prayer, or song
100	The prophet to the people said
