Fruitful Trees, the Spirit's Sowing

Thou who art enthroned in glory

Author: Mrs. Lydia Jane Pierson Hymnal: The Sunday School Hymnal #110 (1899) Topics: Educational Institutions Lyrics: 1 Thou who art enthroned in glory, Crowned with love and robed in grace, Lo! we humbly bow before Thee, Offering up our songs of praise. Mighty God and gracious Saviour! Spirit of enduring grace, Come in Thine especial favor, With Thy glory fill this place. 2 We would celebrate the changes Which the passing years have made, Since our fathers—poor and strangers— Sought the Western forest’s shade. From Helvetia’s vine-clad mountains Came a little friendless band; By the rich Rhine’s infant fountains, Others left their fatherland. 3 Here the little vine, increasing, Spread its branches green and fair; Now by Thine especial blessing See how wide Thy vineyards are. Come and take the ripened cluster; All the vintage, Lord, is Thine; But let mercy temper justice, Where Thou meet’st a fruitless vine. 4 Let our institutions flourish, Sending forth a pious band, With the words of life to nourish All who hunger through the land. Zion spreads her hands before Thee; Come, and in her temples reign, While we give all praise and glory To the Triune God, Amen. Tune Title: GUIDANCE

Blest is the man whose heart expands

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #666 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Importance of Educating Youth Lyrics: 1 Blest is the man whose heart expands At melting pity's call, And the rich blessings of whose hands Like heavenly manna fall. 2 Mercy, descending from above, In softest accents please; O! may each tender bosom move When mercy intercedes. 3 Be ours the bliss in wisdom's way To guide untutor'd youth, And lead the mind that went astray To virtue and to truth. 4 Children our kind protection claim, And God will well approve, When infants learn to lisp his name, And their Creator love. 5 Delightful work! your souls to win, And turn the rising race From the deceitful paths of sin, To seek redeeming grace. 6 Almighty God! thy influence shed To aid this good design: The honours of thy name be spread, And all the glory thine.

Now let our hearts conspire to raise

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #667 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Importance of Educating Youth Lyrics: [Congregation] 1 Now let our hearts conspire to raise A cheerful anthem to thy praise: Let music, sweet as incense, rise With grateful odours to the skies. [Children] 2 Teach us to bow before thy face, Nor let our hearts forget thy grace; When lost in ignorance we lay, Thy goodness snatch'd our souls away. [Congregation] 3 O what a num'rous race we see, In ignorance and misery! Shall they continue still to lie In ignorance and misery! [Children] 4 Give, Lord, each liberal soul to prove The joys of thine exhaustless love; May we the sacred scriptures know, And like the blessed Jesus grow. [Congregation] 5 We feel a sympathizing heart; Lord, 'tis a pleasure to impart; Hear thou our cry, and pitying see, O let these children live to thee.
