Loving-kindness

Hymnal: LS1874 #105 (1874) First Line: Awake, my soul, to joyful lays Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, to joyful lays, And sing thy great Redeemer's praise, He justly claims a song from me, His loving-kindness, O how free! Loving-kindness, Loving-kindness, His loving-kindness, O how free! 2 He saw me ruined in the fall, Yet loved me notwithstanding all; He saved me from my lost estate; His loving-kindness, oh, how great! 3 Though num'rous hosts of mighty foes, Though earth and hell my way oppose, He safely leads my soul along; His loving-kindness, oh, how strong! 4 When trouble, like a gloomy cloud, Has gathered thick, and thundered loud, He near my soul has always stood; His loving-kindness, oh, how good! 5 Often I feel my sinful heart Prone from my Saviour to depart; But though I oft have him forgot, His loving-kindness changes not. 6 Soon shall I pass the gloomy vale, Soon all my mortal powers must fail; Oh, may my last expiring breath, His loving-kindness sing in death.

Praise of children

Hymnal: LS1874 #106b (1874) First Line: Come, let us sing of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Come, let us sing of Jesus, While hearts and accents blend; Come, let us sing of Jesus, The sinner's only Friend His holy soul rejoices, Amid the choirs above, To hear our youthful voices Exulting in his love. 2 We love to sing of Jesus, Who wept our path along; We love to sing of Jesus, The tempted and the strong; None who besought his healing, He passed unheeded by; And still retains his feeling For us above the sky. 3 We love to sing of Jesus, Who died our souls to save; We love to sing of Jesus, Triumphant o'er the grave; And in the hour of danger, We'll trust his love alone, Who once slept in a manger, And now sits on the throne. 4 Then let us sing of Jesus, While yet on earth we stay, And hope to sing of Jesus Throughout eternal day; For those who here confess him, He will in heaven confess; And faithful hearts that bless him, He will forever bless. Tune Title: PRAISE OF CHILDREN

Who shall sing

Hymnal: LS1874 #106a (1874) First Line: Who shall sing, If not the children? Lyrics: 1 Who shall sing, If not the children? Did not Jesus die for them? May they not, with other jewels Sparkle in his diadem? Why to them were voices given, Bird-like voices, sweet and clear? Why, unless the song of heaven They begin to practise here. 2 There's a choir of infant songsters, White-robed, round the Saviour's throne; Angels cease, and, waiting, listen: Oh, 'tis sweeter than their own! Faith can hear the rapt'rous choral, When her ear is upward turn'd: Is not this the same, perfected, Which upon the earth they learn'd? 3 Jesus, when on earth sojourning, Loved them with a wondrous love; And will he, to heaven returning, Faithless to his blessing prove? Oh, they cannot sing too early: Fathers, stand not in their way! Birds do sing while day is breaking: Tell me, then, why should not they? Tune Title: [Who shall sing, If not the children?]
