Our children, Lord, in faith and prayer

Author: Thomas Haweis (1734-1820); Reginald Heber (1783-1826) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 47 hymnals Topics: Stages of Life Lyrics: 1 Our children, Lord, in faith and prayer, we now devote to you; let them your covenant mercies share, and your salvation true. 2 Such children you did once embrace, while dwelling here below; to us and ours, O God of grace, the same compassion show. 3 Dear Lord, your infant feet were found within your Father's shrine; your years, with changeless virtue crowned, were all alike divine. 4 Dependent on your bounteous breath, we seek your grace alone, in every stage of life and death, to keep us still your own.

Unless the Lord Constructs the House

Author: Mollie Knight Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Life Stages Family Lyrics: 1 Unless the Lord constructs the house, the builders work in vain; the Lord alone designs and builds foundations that remain. 2 Unless the Lord is keeping watch, the city cannot stand; the sentry guards the gates in vain without God's mighty hand. 3 In vain you labor night and day, by constant care oppressed; the Lord supplies your loved ones' needs and grants them sleep and rest. 4 The Lord designed the family, providing earthly love; our children are God's heritage - a gift from heaven above. 5 Like weapons in a warrior's hand are those who bear our name; with them we face a hostile world assured and free from shame. Scripture: Psalm 127 Used With Tune: ST. ANNE

To keep your statutes faithfully shall ever be my willing choice. Scripture: Psalm 119:105-112 Used With Tune: ST. CRISPIN Text Sources: Psalter, 1912
