O Savior, who in love didst take

Author: J. S. B. Monsell Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Savior, who in love didst take A human body, for our sake; To share with us the griefs of life, Its watchings, weariness, and strife: All that belong to man but sin, Thou didst this day Thyself begin. 2 Savior of infants, Thou didst rest, Helpless, upon Thy mother's breast; Savior of children, Thu didst play, And grow beside her, day by day. All human life to soothe and save, Up from the cradle to the grave. 3 Savior, as low as Thou didst bend From heaven to be the sinners' friend, So high our nature lift with Thine, Till human things become divine. And Thy eternal love once more God's image to the soul restore. 4 And when we cling too close to earth, Forgetful of our heavenly birth, And for the love of its poor dross, Despise Thy crown or shun Thy cross. O let this festal day reprove Such wrong to Thine incarnate love.

Lord, shall Thy children come to thee?

Author: Samuel Hinds; Henry J. Buckoll Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: Lord, shall thy children come to thee? A boon of love divine we seek: Brought to thine arms in infancy, Ere heart could feel or tongue could speak, Thy children pray for grace, that they May come themselves to thee today. Lord, shall we come, and come again, Oft as we see thy table spread, And tokens of thy dying pain, The wine poured out, the broken bread? Bless thou, O Lord, thy children's prayer, That they may come and find thee there. Lord, shall we come--not thus alone At holy time or solemn rite, But every hour till life be flown, Through weal or woe, in gloom or light, Come to thy throne of grace, that we In faith, hope, love, confirmed may be? Lord, shall we come, come yet again? Thy children ask one blessing more: To come, not now alone, but then-- When life, and death, and time are o'er; Then, then to come, O Lord, and be Confirmed in heaven, confirmed by thee. Amen.
