O Father all creating
Author: John Elllerton Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #628 (1961) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Psalm 127:1 Lyrics: 1 O Father all creating,
Whose wisdom, love, and power
First bound two lives together
In Eden's primal hour,
Today to these thy children
Thine earliest gifts renew,
A home by thee made happy,
A love by thee kept true.
2 O Saviour, guest most bounteous
Of old in Galilee,
Vouchsafe today thy presence
With these who call on thee;
Their store of earthly gladness
Transform to heav'nly wine,
And teach them in the tasting
To know the gift is thine.
3 O Spirit of the Father,
Breathe on them from above,
So mighty in thy pureness
So tender in thy love,
That, guarded by thy presence,
From sin and strife kept free,
Their lives may own thy guidance,
Their hearts be ruled by thee.
4 Except thou build it, Father,
The house is built in vain;
Except thou, Saviour, bless it,
The joy will turn to pain;
But nought can break the union
Of hearts in thee made one;
And love thy Spirit hallows
Is endless love begun.
Amen. Topics: Marriage and the Home; Peace Civil Languages: English Tune Title: SAVOY CHAPEL

2 O Savior, guest most bounteous
of old in Galilee,
vouchsafe today thy presence
with these who call on thee;

To know the gift divine.

Unless the Lord the House Shall Build (Psalm 127)
Hymnal: Glory to God #46 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 127 First Line: Unless the Lord the house shall build Lyrics: 1 Unless the Lord the house shall build,
the weary builders toil in vain;
unless the Lord the city shield,
the guards a useless watch maintain.
2 In vain you rise at morning break,
and late your nightly vigils keep,
and weary days of toil partake;
for God's beloved there is sleep.
3 Like arrows in full quivers stored
are children given in days of youth;
for children are a great reward,
a gift from God in very truth.

Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #127A (2018) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 127 Lyrics: 1 Unless the Lord the house shall build,
the weary builders toil in vain;

the guards a useless watch maintain.
2 In vain you rise ere morning break,
and late your nightly vigils keep,
and of the bread of toil partake;
God gives to his beloved sleep.
3 Lo, children are a great reward,
a gift from God in very truth;
with arrows is his quiver stored
who joys in children of his youth.
4 And blest the man whose age is cheered
by stalwart sons and daughters fair;
no enemies by him are feared,
no lack of love, no want of care. Topics: Family Worship; God As Guardian; Marriage and the Home; Protection; Riches Languages: English Tune Title: ILLA
