"Thy kingdom come," on bended knee

Author: Rev. Frederick L. Hosmer Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 103 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 "Thy kingdom come," on bended knee The passing ages pray; And faithful souls have yearned to see On earth that Kingdom's day. 2 But the slow watches of the night Not less to God belong; And for the everlasting right The silent stars are strong. 3 And lo! already on the hills The flags of dawn appear; Gird up your loins, ye prophet souls, Proclaim the day is near: 4 The day in whose clear-shining light All wrong shall stand revealed; When justice shall be clothed with might, And every hurt be healed. 5 When knowledge, hand in hand with peace, Shall walk the earth abroad; The day of perfect righteousness, The promised day of God. Amen. Used With Tune: CHESTERFIELD

We give Thee but Thine own

Author: Bishop W. Walsham How Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 498 hymnals Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Stewardship Lyrics: 1 We give Thee but Thine own, Whate'er the gift may be: All that we have is Thine alone, A trust, O Lord, from Thee. 2 May we Thy bounties thus As stewards true receive, And gladly, as Thou blessest us, To Thee our first fruits give. 3 To comfort and to bless, To find a balm for woe, To tend the lone and fatherless, Is angels' work below. 4 The captive to release, To God the lost to bring, To teach the way of life and peace— It is a Christ-like thing. 5 And we believe Thy word, Though dim our faith may be: Whate'er for Thine we do, O Lord, We do it unto Thee. Amen. Used With Tune: SCHUMANN

Thou, whose almighty word

"Thy kingdom come," on bended knee

We give Thee but Thine own

Come, let us join with faithful souls

Hope of the world, thou Christ of great compassion

Lord, while for all mankind we pray

Lord, who at Cana's wedding feast

Now praise we great and famous men

O happy home, where thou art loved the dearest

O perfect Love, all human thought transcending
