My God, how endless is thy love!
Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #714 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 My God, how endless is thy love!
Thy gifts are every evening new,
And morning mercies from above
Gently distill, like early dew.
2 Thou spreadst the curtains of the night,
Great Guardian of my sleeping hours!
Thy sovereign word restores the light,
And quickens all my drowsy powers.
3 I yield my powers to thy command;
To thee I consecrate my days;
Perpetual blessings from thy hand
Demand perpetual songs of praise. Scripture: Psalm 3
My God, how endless is thy love!
O Lord, another day is flown
Author: H. K. White Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #719 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 O Lord, another day is flown;
And we, a lowly band,
Are met once more before thy throne,
To bless thy fostering hand.
2 And wilt thou bend a listening ear
To praises low as ours?
Thou wilt! for thou dost love to hear
The song which meekness pours.
3 Thy heavenly grace to each impart
All evil far remove;
And shed abroad in every heart
Thy everlasting love.
4 Thus chastened, cleansed, entirely thine,
A flock by Jesus led,
The Sun of Holiness shall shine
In glory on our head.
5 And thou wilt turn our wandering feet,
And thou wilt bless our way;
Till worlds shall fade, and faith shall greet
The dawn of lasting day.
O Lord, another day is flown
Now condescend, almighty King
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #724 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 Now condescend, almighty King,
To bless this little throng;
And kindly listen while we sing
Our pleasant evening song.
2 Brothers and sisters, hand in hand,
Our lips together move:
Oh, smile upon this little band,
Unite our hearts in love.
3 We come to own the power divine
That watches o'er our days;
For this our feeble voices join;
To God we give the praise.
4 May we in safety sleep to-night,
From every danger free;
For, Lord, the darkness and the light
Are both alike to thee.
5 And when the rising sun displays
His cheering beams abroad,
Then may our grateful morning lays
Declare the love of God.
Now condescend, almighty King
Great God! where'er we pitch our tent
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #725 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 Great God! where'er we pitch our tent,
Let us an altar raise;
And there, with humble frame, present
Our sacrifice of praise.
2 To thee we give our health and strength,
While health and strength shall last;
For future mercies humbly trust,
Nor e'er forget the past.
Great God! where'er we pitch our tent
I my Ebenezer raise
Author: Fawcett Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #726 (1873) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: The Christian Family Birthday Lyrics: 1 I my Ebenezer raise
To my kind Redeemr's praise;
With a grateful heart I own
Hitherto thy help I've known.
2 I my all to thee resign;
Father, let thy will be mine;
May but all thy dealings prove
Fruits of thy paternal love.
3 Let my few remaining days
Be directed to thy praise;
So the last, the closing scene,
Shall be tranquil and serene.
4 To thy will I leave the rest;
Grant me but this one request--
Both in life and death to prove
Tokens of thy special love.
I my Ebenezer raise
God of my life, to thee My cheerful soul I raise
Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #727 (1873) Topics: The Christian Family Birthday Lyrics: 1 God of my life, to thee
My cheerful soul I raise;
Thy goodness bade me be,
And still prolongs my days;
I see my natal hour return,
And bless the day that I was born.
2 My soul and all its powers
Thine, wholly thine, shall be;
All, all my happy hours
I consecrate to thee;
Whate'er I have, whate'er I am,
Shall magnify my Maker's name.
3 Long as I love beneath,
To thee, oh, let me live!
To thee my every breath,
In thanks and praises give!
Creating and preserving grace
Let all that is within me praise.
4 Then, when the work is done,
The work of faith and power,
Receive thy rescued son
In death's triumphant hour;
Like Moses, to thyself convey
My soul, to live in endless day. Scripture: Exodus 20:12
God of my life, to thee My cheerful soul I raise
Let sinners take their course
Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #731 (1873) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family Private Devotion Lyrics: 1 Let sinners take their course,
And choose the road to death;
But in the worship of my God,
I'll spend my daily breath.
2 My thoughts address his throne,
When morning brings the light;
I seek his blessing every noon,
And pay my vows at night.
3 Thou wilt regard my cries,
O my eternal God,
While sinners perish in surprise
Beneath thine angry rod.
Scripture: Psalm 55
Let sinners take their course
I love to steal awhile away
Author: Mrs. Brown Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #732 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family Private Devotion Lyrics: 1 I love to steal awhile away
From every cumb'ring care;
And spend the hours of setting day
In humble, grateful prayer.
2 I love in solitude to shed
The penitential tear;
And all his promises to plead,
Where none but God can hear.
3 I love to think on mercies past,
And future good implore;
And all my cares and sorrows cast
On him whom I adore.
4 I love by faith to take a view
Of brighter scenes in heaven:
The prospect does my strength renew,
While here by tempests driven.
5 Thus, when life's toilsome day is o'er,
May its departing ray
Be calm as this impressive hour,
And lead to endless day. Scripture: Genesis 24:63
I love to steal awhile away
My faith looks up to thee
Author: Palmer Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #733 (1873) Topics: The Christian Family Private Devotion Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary:
Saviour divine,
Now hear me while I pray;
Take all my guilt away:
Oh, let me from this day,
Be wholly thine.
2 May thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart;
My zeal inspire:
As thou hast died for me,
Oh, may my love to thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be--
A living fire.
3 While life's dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be thou my Guide:
Bid darkness turn to day;
Wipe sorrow's tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From thee aside.
4 When ends life's transient dream;
When death's cold, sullen stream
Shall o'er me roll,
Blest Saviour, then, in love,
Fear and distress remove;
Oh, bear me safe above--
A ransomed soul. Scripture: John 3:14-15
My faith looks up to thee
Rise up, and bless your God
Author: A. H. Bassett Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #736 (1873) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family Private Devotion Lyrics: 1 Rise up, and bless your God,
Early his praise declare;
Make haste, attend upon his word,
And breathe your midnight prayer.
2 Let your first thoughts ascend,
And reach the Holy One;
Your earliest wishes ever tend
To his celestial throne.
3 Let not the world, nor care,
Nor sense, nor self have place;
Midnight be given to praise and prayer,
Through the Redeemer's grace.
4 Lord, in this solemn hour,
All thoughts be thoughts of thee;
Into my soul thy fullness pour--
Be all in all to me.
5 Keep, ever keep my heart,
Leaving no room for sin;
Wisdom, and strength, and love impart,
Making a heaven within.
6 Oh, may I live to love,
And fear, and honor thee;
Then sing with ransomed hosts above,
In blest eternity.
Rise up, and bless your God
