Father of all, from land and sea
I love to steal awhile away
Author: Phoebe H. Brown Appears in 634 hymnals Topics: Fellowship with God Lyrics: 1 I love to steal awhile away
From every cumbering care,
And spend the hours of setting day
In humble, grateful prayer.
2 I love in solitude to shed
The penitential tear,
And all His promises to plead,
Where none but God can hear.
3 I love to think on mercies past,
And future good implore,
And all my cares and sorrows cast
On Him whom I adore.
4 I love by faith to take a view
Of brighter scenes in heaven;
The prospect doth my strength renew,
While here by tempests driven.
5 Thus, when life's toilsome day is o'er,
May its departing ray
Be calm as this impressive hour,
And lead to endless day.
Amen. Used With Tune: WOODSTOCK
I love to steal awhile away
Where cross the crowded ways of life
Author: Rev. Frank Mason North Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 377 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth The City; Brotherhood; City, The; Conflict With Sin; Fellowship; Missions; Walking with God Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life,
Where sound the cries of race and clan,
Above the noise of selfish strife,
We hear Thy voice, O Son of Man.
2 In haunts of wretchedness and need,
On shadowed thresholds dark with fears,
From paths where hide the lures of greed,
We catch the vision of Thy tears.
3 From tender childhood's helplessness,
From woman's grief, man's burdened toil,
From famished souls, from sorrow's stress,
Thy heart has never known recoil.
4 The cup of water given for Thee
Still holds the freshness of Thy grace;
Yet long these multitudes to see
The sweet compassion of Thy face.
5 O Master, from the mountain side,
Make haste to heal these hearts of pain;
Among these restless throngs abide,
O tread the city's streets again,
6 Till sons of men shall learn Thy love,
And follow where Thy feet have trod;
Till glorious from Thy heaven above
Shall come the City of our God.
Amen. Used With Tune: GERMANY

Teach Me Thy Will, O Lord
Author: Katherine A. Grimes Appears in 30 hymnals Topics: Fellowship with God Lyrics: 1 Teach me Thy will, O Lord, teach me Thy way;
Teach me to know Thy Word, teach me to pray.
Whate'er seems best to Thee, that be my earnest plea,
So that Thou drawest me closer each day.
2 Teach me Thy wondrous grace, boundless and free;
Lord, let Thy blessed face shine upon me.
Heal Thou sin's every smart, dwell Thou within my heart;
Grant that I never part, Savior, from Thee.
3 Teach me by pain Thy power, teach me by love;
Teach me to know each hour Thou art above.
Teach me as seemeth best in Thee to find sweet rest;
Leaning upon Thy breast, all doubt remove.
4 Teach Thou my lips to sing, my heart to praise;
Be Thou my Lord and King thro' all my days.
Teach Thou my soul to cry, "Be Thou, dear Savior, nigh,
Teach me to live, to die, saved by Thy grace."
Amen.
