Heavenly Father, Send Thy Blessing
Author: C. Wordsworth Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 135 hymnals Topics: Home and Youth Children First Line: Heav'nly Father, send Thy blessing Lyrics: 1. Heav'nly Father, send Thy blessing
On Thy children gathered here;
May they all, Thy Name confessing,
Be to Thee forever dear;
May they be like Joseph, loving,
Dutiful, and chaste, and pure;
And their faith, like David, proving,
Steadfast unto death endure.
2. Holy Savior, who in meekness
Didst vouch-safe a child to be,
Guide their steps and help their weakness,
Bless and make them like to Thee;
Bear Thy lambs, when they are weary,
In Thine arms, and at Thy breast;
Thro' life's desert, dry and dreary,
Bring them to Thy heav'nly rest.
3. Spread Thy golden pinions o'er them,
Holy Spirit, heav'nly Dove,
Guide them, lead them, go before them,
Give them peace, and joy, and love;
Thy true temples, Holy Spirit,
May they with Thy glory shine,
And immortal bliss inherit,
And forevermore be Thine. Used With Tune: RIPLEY
Heavenly Father, Send Thy Blessing
Lord, it belongs not to my care
Author: R. Baxter Appears in 264 hymnals Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to my care
Whether I die or live;
To love and serve Thee is my share,
And this Thy grace must give.
2 If life be long, O make me glad
The longer to obey;
If short, no labourer is sad
To end his toilsome day.
3 Christ leads me thro' no darker rooms
Than He went through before;
And he that to God's kingdom comes
Must enter by this door.
4 Come, Lord, when grace hath made me meet
Thy blessed face to see:
For if Thy work on earth be sweet,
What will Thy glory be?
5 Then I shall end my sad complaints
And weary, sinful days,
And join with the triumphant saints
That sing my Saviour's praise.
6 My knowledge of that life is small,
The eye of faith is dim;
But 'tis enough that Christ knows all,
And I shall be with Him. Used With Tune: HOLY TRINITY
Lord, it belongs not to my care
When, streaming from the eastern skies
Author: Wm. Shrubsole Appears in 204 hymnals Topics: Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 When, streaming from the eastern skies,
The morning light salutes mine eyes,
O Sun of Righteousness divine,
On me with beams of mercy shine;
Chase the dark clouds of guilt away
And turn my darkness into day.
2 As every day, Thy mercy spares,
Will bring its trials and its cares,
O Saviour, till my life shall end,
Be Thou my counselor and friend!
Teach me Thy precepts, all divine,
And be Thy great example mine.
3 When each day's scenes and labors close,
And wearied nature seeks repose,
With pardoning mercy richly blest,
Guard me, my Saviour, while I rest;
And as each morning sun shall rise,
Oh, lead me onward to the skies!
4 And at my life's last setting sun,
My conflicts o'er, my labors done,
Jesus, Thy heavenly radiance shed,
To cheer and bless my dying bed;
And, from death's gloom my spirit raise,
To see Thy face and sing Thy praise.
Amen. Used With Tune: [When, streaming from the eastern skies]

Who Are These?
Author: H. T. Schenck Appears in 146 hymnals Topics: The Home Eternal First Line: Who are these like stars appearing Lyrics: 1. Who are these like stars appearing,
These, before God's throne who stand?
Each a golden crown is wearing,
Who are all this glorious band?
Alleluia! hark, they sing,
Praising loud their heav'nly King.
2. These are they who have contended
For their Saviour's honor long,
Wrestling on till life was ended,
Foll'wing not the sinful throng:
Alleluia! hark, they sing,
Praising loud their heav'nly King.
3. These are they whose hearts were riven,
Sore with woe and anguish tried,
Who in pray'r full oft have striven
With the God they glorified:
Alleluia! hark, they sing,
Praising loud their heav'nly King.
