NOTES
The following hymns are in the Chill-way-uk dialect of the language of the Alkomaylum nation of Indians, who live along the Fraser River, from Yale to the Coast, and on Vancouver Island, at Cowichan and Nanaimo. The Alkomaylum, (or Ankomeenum, sometimes called Stawlo or River language,) as spoken by the Cowichans, is sweet and rythmical. The Chillwayuk dialect is harsher and more guttural. The Nanaimos, the Yales, the Sumas, the Kwantuls, etc. of B.C., and the Nooksaks of Wash., U.S.A., each speak a slightly different dialect of the same language.

1 I am so glad that our Father in Heaven
Tells of His love in the Book He has given,
Wonderful things in the Bible I see,
This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me.
||: I am so glad that Jesus loves me, :||
Jesus loves even me.
2 Though I forget Him and wander away,
Still He doth love me wherever I stray;
Back to His dear loving arms would I flee,
When I remember that Jesus loves me.
3 Jesus loves me, and I know I love Him,
Love brought Him down my poor soul to redeem.
Yes! it was love made Him die on the tree,
Oh! I am certain that Jesus loves me.

Sung by ransomed hosts above;
Oh, the vast, the boundless treasure,
Of my Lord’s unchanging love.
