A little child the Saviour came

Author: William Robertson, 1820-1864 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 54 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A little child the Saviour came, the Mighty God was still His name, and angels worshipped as He lay, the seeming infant of a day. 2 He who, a little child, once came the life divine here to proclaim, declares from heaven the message free, 'Let little children come to me.' 3 We bring them here, O Lord, divine, with sprinkled water as the sign; their souls with saving grace endow; baptize them with Your Spirit now. 4 O give Your angels charge, good Lord, them safely in Your way to guard; Your blessing on their lives command, and write their names upon Your hand. 5 O Saviour, by an infant's tongue You hear Your perfect glory sung, may these, with all the heavenly host, praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

My soul with expectation doth

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My soul with expectation doth depend on God indeed: my strength and my salvation do from him alone proceed. 2 He only my salvation is, and my strong rock is he: he only is my sure defence; much moved I shall not be. 3 How long rush ye upon a man, and him to slay seek all? To crush hime like a tottering fence, and as a bowing wall? 4 Only to cast him down they plot; in lies they take delight; and while they with the mouth do bless, they curse with inward spite. 5 Only on God do thou, my soul, still patiently attend; my expectation and my hope on him alone depend. 6 He only my salvation is, and my strong rock is he; he only is my sure defence: I shall not moved be. 7 In God my glory placed is, and my salvation sure; in God the rock is of my strength, my refuge most secure. 8 Ye people place your confidence in him continually; before him pour ye out your heart; God is our refuge high. 9 Surely mean men are vanity, and great men are a lie; in balance laid, they wholly are more light than vanity. 10 Do ye not in oppression trust, in robbery be not vain; set not your hearts on riches, increased is your gain. 11 God hath it spoken once to me, yea, this I heard again, that power to Almighty God alone doth appertain. 12 Yea, mercy also unto thee belongs, O Lord, alone: for thou according to his work rewardest every one.
