Golden Text.—Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me; nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.—Luke 22:42. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING. 'Time.—From midnight to 6 a.m. of Friday, April 7, A.D. 30. :'lace.—The Garden of Gethsemane on the western slope of the Mount of Olives, and the joint palace of Antras and Caiaphas in Jerusalem. THE AGONY: And he came out. From the "up- per room" in the home of Mary, the: mother of John Mark. And went, as his custom was. During the days of the passover, and doubtless during. his former visit . to Jerusalem. Unto the Mount of Olives, Through the gate in the wall east of the temple, by a steep path down into the valley of the'Kirdon, over the dry bed of that brook by a bridge, and the for about fifty yards further up the green slope of the Mount of Olives to the. favored spot. Ancl the disciples fol- lowed him. Their hearts strangely stirred by the solemn and loving words of the Lord's -last discourse and the wonderful prayer:.which, folh- s rowed it (John 14-17), they were im- 'Nelled to keep • close to the Saviour on that holy night, especially as they all felt that great danger threatened Iditn, And when He was at the place. "It is here, in this quaint and care- ,`lly tendedgarden, that we find for the .first time that which we have tome so far to seek—the soul of the Holy Land, the inward sense of the real presence of Jesus." He said mi- te them, Pray ye that ye enter not into temptation.' Christ had taught there in the Model Prayer, to offer this petitiriti.: Arid he was parted' from then about a stone's cast. Eight disciples were left near the entrance of the garden, while Jesus, taking with. Him the Inner Circle of the disciples. the three nearest to Him, proceeded to the deeper •shadows of the olives. And He kneeled down and prayed, It was the custom of the Jews to stand when praying, but Christ's strong feeling threw him to his knees. Saying, Father, if thou be wilting, remove this cup from me. Herein is the uniqueness of Christ's suffer- ings and dread. No other soul has borne his awful burden. Neverthe- less not ley will, but thine, be done. No will differing from God's could be right, none could be best, none could be even safe,, whether for the atoning Christ Himself, or any oth- er soul. And there appeared unto him an angel from heaven, strengthening 'him. In sending the angel God an- swered. Christ's prayer: the cup was not removed from hint, but he was given .strength to endure the suffer- ings. Thus also our heavenly Father often answers our prayers for relief from pain and escape from trials, And being in an agony he prayed More earnestly. The evangelists re- cord -three repetitions of this prayer of Christ's, and each, we May be sure, was in vital earnest. And his sweat became as it were great drops of. blood falling down upon the ground. Luke the physician would record with special interest and care his phenom eiton of the bloody sweat, which is not known in certain pathological conditions. And when he rose up from his prayer, he came unto the disciples. Matthew and I'tark tell us that Christ returned no less than three times' to His disciples, hungering for human sympathy and the comfort of com- panionship. And found them sleep- ing for sorrow, It was late at night, alsproaching:midnight, and the discip- les were worts with grief and with the opening scenes of the great tragedy; and,,yeta of they had really entered had' `the'-aixeaning of the last supper andi tete ,cipthseinane prayers, how could they have failed to share i Christ's vigil? And said unto them, Why slee ye? Christ knew well the causes o their failure—their heedlessness, thei self-absorption,- their lack of lovin consecration; He knew, but He want ed them also to know, to search thei souls and discover. Rise and pre that ye enter not into temptation Christ does not say, "Pray for me that I fail not in my temptation, for He had received His strength but He knew well how sadly: the dis ciples would need the sante strength and urged then to seek it throng the same unfailing resource, prayer. THE BETRAYAL. While he yet spike, behold, a malin titude. There were many of the although they knew they were goin out against only twelve men, wh bad only two swords. Judas was ix charge of the expedition, as bein familiar with the ground, and ben to, earning his thirty wretched bits of silver, and whatever reward lay beyond: And lie drew near unto Je- sus to kiss Him. 'Disciples or rabbis usually greeted their masters with kisses, but this was no ordinary sal- utation. But Jesus said unto hien, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of Man with a kiss? n 1' r g r Y, h g 0 g t Christ's question implied, as St. Ambrose wrote, Dost thou inflict a wound with a pledge of love? THE ARREST, And when they that were about him saw what would follow. They saw that Jesus was certain to be ar- rested and dragged off for trial. They said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword? They remembered Christ's words applying to the coming neces- sity of their own defence, not His. And. a rcertain one of thein smote' the servant of the high priest. It was the headstrong Peter who did this foolish thing, wishing to make good his boast of Lttke 22:68. And struck off his right ear. Luke alo+te. tells us that it was his right ear; the physicians had taken pants to record the case accurately and tnititltety, But Jesus answered, His words were an answer to Peter's act of vi- olence, or perhaps an answer to the angry shouts of Christ's captors, And said, Suffer ye thele thus far. This utterance, whose Alvaninp• was plain enough at the time, but is_obscure tQ is : one of the innumerable siiil:- filar evidences of the genuineness of the narrative. And He touched his ear and heeled hien. Christ would not give His .enemies any excuse for charging Him and His followers with violence. He was and would' remain, the Prinee of Peace. And. Jesus said unto the chief priests, They were heads of the courses of . priests and former high priests, members of the. Sanhedrin: And captains of the temple. In charge' of the police officers on duty in the temple. And elders: Heads of. the Jewish clans, members of the Sanhedrin. That were come against Him. Eldersheirn argues that Rom- an soldiers were also included inthe force sent to arrest Jesus. Are ye come out, as against a robber, with swords and staves (clubs)? The great show of force, appropriate for the arrest of a violent criminal, the lead- er of some band of cutthroats, was entirely absurd in the 'case of a relig- ious, leader all whose acts had been peaceful and loving. When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched not forth your hands against me. There, if any- where, our Lord had committed what- ever crime they were intending to charge Him with, and there, if any- where, He should have been arrested. But this is your , hour, and the power of darkness. Christ ,contrasts this se- crecy with His openness, their cow- ardice with His courage. And they seized. Him. They bound Him as a common criminal, probably with His hands behind his back: John 18:12. And led Him away, and, brought Him into the high priest's house, But Peter followed afar off. We read in Mark 14:50 the sad state- ment that all •the disciples left Jesus at this juncture, and ran away; all, even John, the beloved disciple. FAVORITE. HYMNS All hail the power of Jesus' name!

In the year 1779 there was living in the ancient city of Canterbury, Eng- land, an elderly minister, who was in charge of a little congregation of In- dependents or Congregationalists and whose name was Edward Perron net, :a wonderfully able, eloquent an poetically endowed ' man who dis claimed any intention rank among the poets, but wrote a good deal of fine verse for his own amusement, Some of his lines he showed to friends, among whom was a young fellow of twenty named William Shrubsole, who had been for several years a chorister in Canterbury Ca- thedral, and was now a promising organ pupil. Shrubsole took one of the poems to the organ loft in the Cathedral and tried his hand at set- ting it .to music in such a manner as to bring out to the fullest extent the significance of the last line of each verse, which repeated the "Crown Him," betokening the reign of Jesus Christ to who`every knee' is ulti- mately to bow,, asknowledging Him "Lord of all," Shrubsole finally evolved a har- monized tune which appeared to him to be good enough for publication, and he sent it off in Novemberr of that year, with the first verse of the hymn to the Gospel Magazine, which three years later had given to the world. Toplady's "Rock of Ages." The tune struck the popular fancy at once, and enquiries were sent in to the editor about the words of the hymn, for which it was written, ask- ing if there were not more verses. In response to these requests, the Gospel Magazine in the following Ap- ril number published the complete hymn of eight verses, as Perronet had written it. The second verse, nev- er heard now, ran: "Let highborn seraphs tune their lyre, And as they tune it, fall Before His face who tunes their choir And crown Him Lord of all." It was entitled "On the Resurrec- tion the Lord is King," and is repro- duced word for word, with the omis- sion of the second verse. The Rev. John Rippon, aninfluential and learn- ed Baptist minister, of London, in- troduced the hymn into his "selec- tion," published in 1787, under the ti- tle "The Spiritual Coronation," with changes, omissions and additions, but retaining its characteristics and mak- ing it into a noble, but different hymn. Hence the difference in the texts as they appear in various hymn- als. 'The hymn and Shrubsole's tune speedily became popular and the words were printed on fly -sheets, and put into very general use throughout Great Britain. A congregation of Indepedents, the predeceasors of modern Congre- gationalists, worshipping at a well- known chapel in Miles Lane, Lon- don, took it up in their evangelistic services, and probably because of their :frequent use of it and of their publishing music as well as words, Shrubsole's tune acquired the name of the chapel, which it has borne ev- er since. That chapel, by the way, was occupied by the Independents on- ly until 1795, when a congregation of Scotch "Seceders" succeeded them. Shrtibsole became a church organ- ist and wrote other music, but his youthful composition in the organ loft in Canterbury ' Cathedral it is which has preserved his name for posterity. The words, furnished to the Gospel Magazine, appeared in 1785 in a vol- ume entitled "Occasional Verses," ed- ited by a friend of, their writer. It is in this book that the Rev. Edward Perronet modestly explains that the "verses" were `written far "mere <per- sonal amusement and only occasion- ally shown by way of personal res- pect to a handful of the friends of the author, who, having entrusted a copy of these and many others to a particular acquaintance, has been at length persuaded to admit of their being made public," This modest writer of an immort- al hymn was the great grandson of a French religious- refugee, who niinist- erect to a Hugenot congregation in Switzerland, The son of this "Suisse" minister emigrated from England, and his son, Vincent I'er- tonet, graduated at Oxford; and be- came the Church of England Vicar of Shoreham, lent, In his old age Vincent Perronet was warm per- sonal itiwici d ^ of ycihii Wesley,, his son; ENra':'d, Was 'born hi 1720, and iarefully educated, d A brilliant, "'eecetttlac; witty yoirn mart, ,,he first became lurown ; as the author f " i ' I t o Th 1� ' - e 11.�a'tre 't Poem sat irinsitig his father's church, which was severely .condemned by John Wesley, who indignantly demanded that it be suppressed immediately, The great evangelist''s anger and sub- sequent admonitions appear to have drawn Edward' Perrone and his bro- ther Charles • into Abe Wesley move- ment. He became a Iay preacher,. but was continually in trouble with John Wesley;, whose rifles he broke:. again and again: The two brothers•'fh ally left Wes ley, when they Ied•a- rebellion.against his order, that lay -helpers or preach- ers were by no means to administer the sacraments, but with, t°l esu°flocks were always to 'a'ttt nd tli parish ser- vices of the Chttrob of Engla,1cl. Edward joined:, the' "`Couritess of Huntingdon's-tCatyinistic Methodist) Connection 'and ministered "in a cha- pel ' in Watling street, Canterbury. Afterwards' he fell out with the "Con- nection;" and becante pastor of a' lit- tle Indepedent or Congregational chapel in the same city where, after a useful life, he died in 1792. Be was, after all his wanderings, buried in the cloisters of Canterbury. Cathedral, with the service of his good old father's Church. •His will disposed of'a good deal of property. He wrote and'published many hy- mns, but none of them ever attained he popularity of his great Resurrec- tion hymn, so admirably fitted with wings of song by the young organist and choirman of the Cathedral of, Canterbury. Sometimes the mistake is.made of attributing the hymn to the author- ship of Rev. Dr. John Duncan, a Scottish minister, who seems to have altered it to "suit the' sited of his con- gregation at, the Ccots Church, col - g den. Sgnare, London, whence an edits for published it in his"Selection of Sev x "as et 1"l;utfclti,d Ilyixtns, Dr. I,)rru- eau's, But no one now 'doubts that the honor o( giving this grand hymn oto'the, Church Catholic belongs to Rev.
