Let Folly Praise That Fancy Loves
Author: Robert Southwell, 1561-1595 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let folly praise that fancy loves;
I praise and love that child
whose heart no thought, whose tongue no word,
whose hand no deed defiled.
I praise him most, I love him best;
all praise and love are his.
While him I love, in him I live,
and cannot live amiss.
2 Love's sweetest mark, laud's highest theme,
our most desired light.
To love him life, to leave him death,
to live in him delight.
He mine by gift, I his by debt,
thus each to other due:
first friend he was, best friend he is;
all times will find him true.
3 Though young, yet wise, though small, yet strong,
though man, yet God he is;
as wise he knows, as strong he can,
as God he loves to bless.
His knowledge rules, his strength defends,
his love doth cherish all;
his birth our joy, his life our light,
his death our end of thrall. Topics: Christmas; Epiphany Scripture: Isaiah 49:1-7 Used With Tune: A PURPLE ROBE

of music, grandeur, light;
toward whom the soaring arches

as beauty draws us to you
within this house of prayer,
let worship form and feed us
to help us show your care.

and fill us with your grace.
Arouse our lagging spirits,
enflame our hearts with joy:
here let a love be kindled
that death cannot destroy.
3 O Christ, who cleansed the temple,
baptize us with your zeal,

to love, forgive, and heal.
Be in our midst to claim us
and mark us as your own,
then send us forth in witness
to make your mercy known. Topics: Praise of God; Baptism (general) Scripture: 1 Kings 8:22-30 Used With Tune: KING'S LYNN
