The Slavery of Sin (Temperance
Lesson).—John 8: 31-36

THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING.
Time. --The -feast of tabernacles,
October 11-18, A.D. 29, the third
Year of Christ's public ministry.
Place, -Jerusalem:
TRUTH AND FREEDOM.
After Christ's discourse on the
Bread. of Life, which we studied last
week, occurred a number of import-
ant events in our Lord's life which
John omitted because they were nar;'
rated by Matthew, Mark and Luke.
These were the journey toward Sid-
on with the healing of the daughter
of the Syrophoenician woman, the
feeding of the four thousand, the giv-
ing of sight to the blind man: at Beth-
saida, Peter's confessionof faith, the
transfiguration, the healing of the de-
moniac , boy and several' discourses.
Now we find Jesus at the feast of
tabernacles in Jerusalem, where He
delivered several glorious discourses
which John has recorded. One of
these, ori the Water of Life, is in
chapter 7, which we are .omitting,
Chapter 8, from which bur six verses
are taken, discuss the great topics of,
Christian truth, light and liberty.
Jesus therefore said to the Jews
that had- believed Him. The preced-
ing verse tells us that "as He spake
these things, many believed on Him."
Note the significant . distinction be-
tween those that believe on Jesus and

Our God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for'years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal 'home:
Under the shadow of Thy Throne
'Thy saints have- dwelt secure;.
Sufficient is Thine arm alone,
And our defence is sure.
Before the hills in order stood,
Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting Thou art God,
Through endless years the same.
A thousand ages in Thy sight
Are like an evening gone;
Short as the watch that ends the
night
Before the rising sun.
Time, like an ever -rolling stream,
Bears all its sons away; •
They fly forgotten, as a dream:
Dies at the opening day.
Our God our help in ages past;
Our hope for years to come;.
Be Thou our guard while troubles
last,
And our eternal home.

i.tlon of the Psalm by. the 'Rev. Isaac
Watts, D.D., sometimes,, and with
some appropriateness styled The Fa-
ther of English Hymnody. The title
of his edition 'was "The Psalms of
David imitated in the language of
the New Testament," and it need.
not therefore be expected that he
would attempt to stick closely to the
Letter or the originals. It was the
spirit he intended to translate into
Christian and modern terminology,.
and although not by any means uni-
formly successful, he did make some
magnificent hymns out of the old
Jewish Psalems, as for instance, "Je-
sus shall reign where'er the sun,",
from Psalm 72, "Lord"of the worlds
above," from Psalm 84, "Give to our
God immortal praise," from Psalm
136, but finest of all: —"Our God,
our help in ages past,"from Psalm
90,
dogs delight to bark and bit."
The well-known tune St. Anne, a
model of what a cong>;egational
hymn -tune `should be, was one of
several, among them "Hanover,'`
"Eatington (Let saints on earth in
concert sing) and "St,' Matthew," for
,which we are indebted to Dr, Wm.
Croft, a celebrated composer of cath-
edral music, who lived from 1677 to
1727, and. was therefore a contemp-
orary of Isaac Watts. Dr. Croft was
the organist of Westminster. Abbey,
ari'd published several books on mus-
ical subjects, one of them Musica Sa-
cra being engraved on pewter plates,
the first known publication from ,en-
graved metal in that form. Accord-
ing to old records,: Dr. Croft found
the first line of our tune, we are not,
told where, and;added the other
three lines. St. Ann:; was set with

nine verses in Watts' version of the
first part of Psalm 90, but' the six

best of them. Another of Watts'
hyinns, "When I survey' the wond-
rous cross," is of probably equal val-
ue in most opinions as is this hymn.
