That holy book shall guide our youth, And well support our age. Languages: English Tune Title: AZMON

Once in royal David's city

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: The Hymnal #454 (1950) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8 Topics: Christ Childhood and Youth of Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city Stood a lowly cattle shed, Where a mother laid her Baby In a manger for His bed: Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ, her little Child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven Who is God and Lord of all, And His shelter was a stable, And His cradle was a stall: With the poor, and mean, and lowly, Lived on earth our Saviour holy. 3 Jesus is our childhood's pattern, Day by day like us He grew; He was little, weak, and helpless, Tears and smiles like us He knew: And He feeleth for our sadness, And He shareth in our gladness. 4 And our eyes at last shall see Him, Through His own redeeming love; For that Child so dear and gentle Is our Lord in heaven above, And He leads His children on To the place where He is gone. Amen. Tune Title: IRBY

My Church! my Church!

Hymnal: Concordia #209 (1918) Topics: Childhood and Youth Youth First Line: My church! my church! my dear old church! Lyrics: 1 My church! my church! my dear old church! My fathers’ and my own! On Prophets and Apostles built, And Christ the corner-stone! All else beside, by storm or tide, May yet be over-thrown: But not my church, my dear old church, My fathers’ and my own! 2 My church! my church! my dear old church! My glory and my pride! Firm in the faith Immanuel taught, She holds no faith beside. Upon this rock, ‘gainst ev'ry shock, Tho' gates of hell assail, She stands secure, with promise sure, “They never shall prevail.” 3 My church! my church! my dear old church! I love her ancient name; And God forbid, a child of hers Should ever do her shame! Her mother-care I'll ever share; Her child I am alone, Till He who gave me to her arms Shall call me to His own. 4 My church! my church! my dear old church! I've heard the tale of blood, Of hearts that loved her to the death-- The great, the wise, the good. Our martyred sires defied the fires For Christ the crucified; The once delivered faith to keep, They burned, they bled, they died. 5 My church! my church! I love my church! For she exalts my Lord! She speaks, she breathes, she teaches not, But from His written Word; And if her voice bids me rejoice, From all my sins released, 'Tis thro' th'atoning sacrifice, And Jesus is the Priest.

The Son of God goes Forth

Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: Concordia #212 (1918) Topics: Childhood and Youth Youth First Line: The Son of God goes forth to war Lyrics: 1 The Son of God goes forth to war, A kingly crown to gain: His blood-red banner streams afar, Who follows in His train? Who best can drink his cup of woe, Triumphant over pain, Who patient bears his cross below, He follows in His train. 2 That martyr first, whose eagle eye Could pierce beyond the grave; Who saw his Master in the sky; And called on Him to save; Like Him, with pardon on His tongue; In midst of mortal pain, He prayed for them that did the wrong: Who follows in His train? 3 A noble band, the chosen few, On whom the Spirit came, Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew And mocked the torch of flame; They met the tyrant's brandished steel, The lion's gory mane, They bowed their necks the stroke to feel: Who follows in their train? 4 A noble army, men and boys, The matron and the maid, Around the Savior's throne rejoice, In robes of light arrayed. They climbed the steep ascent of heaven Through peril, toil, and pain: O God, to us may grace be given To follow in their train. Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS

Author: John Wesley; Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: Concordia #216 (1918) Topics: Childhood and Youth Youth First Line: Jesus, Thy boundless love to me Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy boundless love to me No tho't can reach, no tongue declare; O knit my thankful heart to Thee, And reign without a rival there: Thine wholly, Thine alone, I am, Be Thou alone my constant flame. 2 O grant that nothing in my soul May dwell, but Thy pure love alone; O may Thy love possess me whole, My joy, my treasure, and my crown: Strange fires far from my soul remove; May ev'ry act, word, tho't, be love. 3 O love, how cheering is Thy ray! All pain before Thy presence flies; Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away, Where'er Thy healing beams arise. O Jesus, nothing may I see, Or hear, or feel, or think, but Thee. 4 Still let Thy love point out my way; How wondrous things Thy love hath wrought! Still lead me, lest I go astray; Direct my work, inspire my thought: And if I fall, soon may I hear Thy voice, and know that love is near. 5 In suff'ring, be Thy love my peace; In weakness, be Thy love my power; And when the storms of life shall cease, Jesus, in that important hour, In death, as life, be Thou my Guide, And save me, who for me hast died.
