Lord, I Would Own Thy Tender Care

Author: Jane Taylor Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 96 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord, I would own Thy tender care, And all Thy love to me; The food I eat, the clothes I wear, Are all bestowed by Thee. 2. ’Tis Thou preservest me from death And dangers every hour; I cannot draw another breath Unless Thou give me power. 3. Kind angels guard me every night, As round my bed they stay: Nor am I absent from Thy sight In darkness or by day. 4. My health, and friends, and parents dear, To me by God are giv’n; I have not any blessing here But what is sent from Heav’n. 5. Such goodness, Lord, and constant care, I never can repay; But may it be my daily prayer, To love Thee and obey. Used With Tune: ST. LEONARD (Smart) Text Sources: Hymns for Infant Minds, 1809

Jesus, thou Son of David, hear-- Have mercy, too, on me. 3 And didst thou pity mortal woe, And sight and health restore? Then pity, Lord, and save my soul, Which needs thy mercy more. 4 Didst thou regard thy servant's cry, When sinking in the wave? I perish, Lord, oh, save my soul! For thou alone canst save.

Soon shall this earthly frame, dissolv'd

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Soon shall this earthly frame, dissolv'd, in death and ruins lie; but better mansions wait the just, prepar'd above the sky. 2 An house eternal, built by God, shall lodge the holy mind; When once those prison-walls have fall’n by which ‘tis now confined. 3 Hence, burden'd with a weight of clay, we groan beneath the load, waiting the hour which sets us free, and brings us home to God. 4 We know, that when the soul, uncloth'd, shall from this body fly, ’twill animate a purer frame with life that cannot die. 5 Such are the hopes that cheer the just; these hopes their God hath giv’n; his Spirit is the earnest now, and seals their souls for heav’n. 6 We walk by faith of joys to come, faith grounded on his word; but while this body is our home, we mourn an absent Lord. 7 What faith rejoices to believe, we long and pant to see; we would be absent from the flesh, and present, Lord! with thee. 8 But still, or here, or going hence, to this our labours tend, that, in his service spent, our life may in his favour end. 9 For, Lo! before the Son, as judge, th’ assembled world shall stand, to take the punishment or prize from his unerring hand. 10 Impartial retributions then our different lives await; our present actions, good or bad, shall fix our future fate.
