II S. McNair, Secretary DEDICATION HYMN. Dedicated to the Conyers Presby terian Church. BY SIDNEY HERBERT. Up to Thy Courts, O, God of grace, We come to seek T y bi essed face ; Thy face that glows with love divine lor all whom Thou hast marked as Thine. Here in this Church of man’s device, Where sin can still our souls entice, We need Thy presense in our hearts, Through the rich grace Thy love imparts, O consecrate our souls, os well As walls, and tower aad sounding bell, That to Thy service here are given, To aid in teaching men of Heaven. No sounding bell, no tower so high Can save a soul that’s doomed to die ; Nor can this service give to these Power to bend in faith our knees. Our bouls, our hearts, our purest love. All must abide in God above ; Then shall this Church most truly be A house in which to worship Thee. Then with foundations broad and deep, The living Church its walls shall keep. As Thou hast kept the walls of Zion, Stronger than stone, or brass ox iron. Presbyterian Church—Dr. Irvine. As we have stated elsewhere in tin issue, the new Presbyterian church in Conyers has been finished, and is now being used for the purposes for which it was built. The dedication serin >n was preached on hist Sabbath by Rev. Rob ert Irvine, D. D., of Augusta, Ga, The Blh ohnptir ot Ist Kings was read ns the scriptural or dedication less on. An appropriate and fervent prayer was offered by Dr. Frazer, of Decatur. The text from which the noted, lent non and eloquent divine preached the dedica tion sermon, was the 12th verse of *lst chapter of Ist Corinthians, which leads : ‘•Now this I say, that every one cf you saith, lam ot Paul; and lam otu Apol los; and lam of Cephas ; and I am of Christ." The speaker pictured the dif ferent parties named, and showed how vain and foolish it was to follow anyone but the nio 'k and lowly Saviour. Grace is from on high. “Paul may plant and Apollos water, but God giveth the in crease." The powers and the gifts ot the man must be hid by the Cross, A saint may pray for a sinner, but a sinner must pray tor himself.” lie preached four sermons while here. On Sunday night from this text: “l'ln fervent effectual prayer of a righteous man availeth much,” lie said a right eous man was one quickened by the spirit of God ; by grace from on high. All others are unrighteous. His picture of the drought and deso lation iu the time of Elijah—when In prayed that it might not rain, and it rained not tot the space of three 'years and six months. How lie prayed again and it rained, and the earth brought fruit, and man and beast were gladdened —was portrayed with a power that was sublime, and a pathos that was touching ly tender and -adly beautiful; convincing his hearers ot the power and efficacy el prayer. All of his sermons here were marked by the same strength of thought, force, of diction and beauty of expieasion as those we have named. They show the learning, eloquence, fervor, piety, strength ot mind atul liberal ciivisliat spirit ot the man who loses sight of self white keeping the cross in view. We are.unable to give even a synopsis of his remarks. Dr. Frazer preached on Tuesday night a very able sermon from this text: “Make me as one ot thy hired servants.’’ Rev. Mr. Morton has been in attend ance also on the meeting. Our people were so well pleased wi ll Dr. Irvine, that we hope lie will find it convenient to visit Conyers often ard preach to us.
