Jesus, from Thy throne on high

Author: Thomas B. Pollock Hymnal: The Hymnal #368 (1916) Meter: 7.7.7.6 Topics: Sunday Schools Closing Hymns Lyrics: Jesus, from thy throne on high, Far above the bright blue sky, Look on us with loving eye: Little children need not fear, When they know that thou art near: Thou dost love us, Savior dear: Little hearts may love thee well, Little lips thy love may tell, Little hymns thy praises swell: 335 Little lives may be divine, Little deeds of love may shine, Little ones be wholly thine: Jesus, once an infant small, Cradled in the oxen's stall, Though the God and Lord of all: Once a child so good and fair, Feeling want, and toil, and care, All that we may have to bear: Jesus, thou dost love us still, And it is thy holy will That we should be safe from ill: Be thou with us every day, In our work and in our play, When we learn and when we pray: When we lie asleep at night, Ever may thy angels bright Keep us safe till morning light: Make us brave without a fear, Make us happy, full of cheer, Sure that thou art always near: May we prize our Christian name, May we guard it free from blame, Fearing all that causes shame: 336 May we grow from day to day, Glad to learn each holy way, Ever ready to obey: May we ever try to be From all sinful tempers free, Pure and gentle, Lord, like thee: May our thoughts be undefiled, May our words be true and mild, Make us each a holy child: Jesus, Son of God most high, Who didst in a manger lie, Who upon the cross didst die: Jesus, from thy heavenly throne, Watching o'er each little one, Till our life on earth is done: Jesus, whom we hope to see Calling us in heaven to be Happy evermore with thee: Hear us, Holy Jesus. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MEDAN

My God, accept my heart this day

Author: Matthew Bridges Hymnal: The Hymnal #372 (1916) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Sunday Schools Closing Hymns Lyrics: My God, accept my heart this day, And make it always thine, That I from thee no more may stray, No more from thee decline. Before the cross of him who died, Behold, I prostrate fall; Let every sin be crucified, And Christ be all in all. Anoint me with thy heavenly grace And seal me for thine own; That I may see thy glorious face, And worship near thy throne. Let every thought, and work, and word, To thee be ever given; Then life shall be thy service, Lord, And death the gate of heaven! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. STEPHEN

Lord, Thy children guide and keep

Author: W. Walsham How Hymnal: The Hymnal #374 (1916) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Sunday Schools Closing Hymns Lyrics: Lord, thy children guide and keep, As with feeble steps they press On the pathway rough and steep Through the weary wilderness. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. There are stony ways to tread; Give the strength we sorely lack. There are tangled paths to thread; Light us, lest we miss the track. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. There are sandy wastes that lie Cold and sunless, vast and drear, Where the feeble faint and die; Grant us grace to persevere. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. 341 There are soft and flowery glades Decked with golden-fruited trees, Sunny slopes and scented shades; Keep us, Lord, from slothful ease. Holy Jesus, day by day, Lead us in the narrow way. Upward still to purer heights! Onward yet to scenes more blest, Thou Guardian of my soul! 346 O Jesus, thou hast promised To all who follow thee, That where thou art in glory There shall thy servant be; And, Jesus, I have promised To serve thee to the end; O give me grace to follow, My Master and my Friend! O let me see thy footmarks, And in them plant my own! My hope to follow duly Is in thy strength alone. O guide me, call me, draw me, Uphold me to the end! At last in heaven receive me, My Savior and my Friend! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: BREAD OF HEAVEN

I shall not fear the battle, If thou art by my side, Nor wander from the pathway, If thou wilt be my Guide. O let me feel thee near me! The world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, The tempting sounds I hear; My foes are ever near me, Around me and within; But, Jesus, draw thou nearer, And shield my soul from sin. O let me hear thee speaking In accents clear and still, Above the storms of passion, The murmurs of self-will! O speak to reassure me, To hasten or control! O speak, and make me listen, Thou Guardian of my soul! 346 O Jesus, thou hast promised To all who follow thee, That where thou art in glory There shall thy servant be; And, Jesus, I have promised To serve thee to the end; O give me grace to follow, My Master and my Friend! O let me see thy footmarks, And in them plant my own! My hope to follow duly Is in thy strength alone. O guide me, call me, draw me, Uphold me to the end! At last in heaven receive me, My Savior and my Friend! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: DAY OF REST

O happy band of pilgrims

Author: St. Joseph the Hymnographer; John Mason Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal #536 (1916) Meter: 7.6.7.6 Topics: Sunday Schools Closing Hymns Lyrics: O happy band of pilgrims, If onward ye will tread With Jesus as your fellow To Jesus as your head! O happy if ye labour As Jesus did for men! O happy if ye hunger As Jesus hungered then! The cross that Jesus carried, He carried as your due: The crown that Jesus weareth, He weareth it for you. The faith by which ye see him, The hope in which ye yearn, The love that through all troubles To him alone will turn; The trials that beset you, The sorrows ye endure, The manifold temptations That death alone can cure; What are they but his jewels, Of right celestial worth? What are they but the ladder Set up to heaven on earth? O happy band of pilgrims, Look upward to the skies, Where such a light affliction Shall win so great a prize! 497 To Father, Son, and Spirit, The God whom we adore, Be loftiest praises given, Now and for evermore. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: KNECHT
