The Son Forsook the Father's Home
Author: Samuel J. Stone Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The Son forsook the Father’s home
For mercy to lost man,
And did not scorn the virgin’s womb
To bear the sinner’s ban.
2. Meekly the maiden pure believed
The great archangel’s word,
And by the Holy Ghost conceived
The Savior Christ the Lord.
3. The Word made flesh creation sees,
Its mighty God in man:
Great mystery of mysteries
Since ever time began!
4. That we might gain a second birth
The Holy Son was giv’n:
’Twas God Himself came down to earth
To win us back to Heav’n.
5. Lord! we believe with love and praise
This wondrous truth of Thee:
Thereby in all our troublous days
How strong henceforth are we!
6. So near art Thou, so strong are we,
For now, if we are Thine,
Our brother in humanity,
Thou makest us divine!
7. We see with peace in times of fear
Serene Thy human form
Thy human voice with joy we hear,
Sweet-toned above the storm.
8. So dread we not the deathly strife,
Knowing that Thou hast died:
It can but bear us into life,
Since nearer to Thy side! Used With Tune: MAITLAND Text Sources: Lyra Fidelium; Twelve Hymns of the Twelve Articles of the Apostle's Creed (London: Messrs. Parker and Co., 1866)

'Tis Good, Beyond All Other Good
Author: James Holme Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: ’Tis good, beyond all other good Lyrics: 1 ’Tis good, beyond all other good,
To daily live in prayer,
To rear an altar to our God,
And meet rejoicing there.
2 No nobler, no more cheering sight
In this dark world we see
Than when a household all unite
In fervent piety.
3 The Christian’s heart is Jesus’ throne,
His home is Jesus’, too,
He is not left an hour alone,
But still in Jesus’ view.
4 Sweet home where fellowship divine
The soul with grace supplies,
Such home, O God, be ever mine,
And mine such hallowed joys.

'Tis Good, Beyond All Other Good
The Aged Sire Has Gone to Rest
Author: John J Moore Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The aged sire has gone to rest;
He left the world below,
To rest upon the Saviour's breast,
Escaping every foe.
2 Tho' kindred dear and friends might mourn,
He could no longer stay:
On angel's wings he swift was borne
To realms of endless day.
3 His silver locks no altars wreathe
Nor voice earth's temple fill:
But where enraptured spirits breathe
His voice the regions thrill.
4 Melodious strains his notes control,
Proclaiming love divine;
While him angelic throngs behold
'Midst cloudless glory shine.
AMEN.
