Each day we live the Christian life
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander, 1818-1895; McCaughan; James Alexander, b. 1954 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #462 (2004) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Each day we live the Christian life
we're sorely tried — without, within;
but God the Spirit gives us strength
to wage a constant war with sin.
2 It's in our weakness that we find
He gives the help we greatly need
to honour Christ in all our ways,
as from the power of sin we're freed.
3 When deep within our swelling hearts
the thoughts of pride and envy rise,
when bitter words are on our tongues
and tears of passion in our eyes,
4 He helps us keep our self-control;
sends grace to check the hasty word;
give gentle answers back again
and fight a battle for our Lord.
5 So far as it depends on us,
we'll live in peace as Christians should;
we'll not be overcome by wrong,
but overcome all wrong with good.
6 All His disciples on this earth
have their own painful cross to take
but, in the Holy Spirit's power,
we'll live our lives for Jesus' sake. Languages: English Tune Title: ALSTONE

Here In Thy Name, Eternal God
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #515 (1930) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Here, in Thy name, eternal God Lyrics: 1 Here in Thy name, eternal God,
We build this earthly house to Thee;
O choose it for Thy fixed abode
And keep it from all error free.
2 Here, when Thy people seek Thy face
And dying sinners pray to live,
Hear Thou in heav'n, Thy dwelling place,
And when Thou hearest, Lord, forgive.
3 Here, when Thy messengers proclaim
The blessed Gospel of Thy Son,
Still, by the pow'r of His great name,
Be mighty signs and wonders done.
4 Thy glory never hence depart;
Yet choose not, Lord, this house alone;
Thy kingdom come to ev'ry heart;
In ev'ry bosom fix Thy throne.
Amen. Topics: Dedication Languages: English Tune Title: ALSTONE

We are but little children weak
We are but little children weak
Author: Mrs. Cecil Frances Alexander, 1823-1895 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #589 (1917) Lyrics: 1 We are but little children weak,
Nor born in any high estate;
What can we do for Jesus' sake,
Who is so high, and good, and great!
2 When deep within our swelling heart
The thoughts of pride and anger rise,
When bitter words are on our tongues,
And tears of passion in our eyes
3 Then we may stay the angry blow,
Then we may check the hasty word,
Give gentle answers back again,
And fight a battle for our Lord.
4 With smiles of peace and looks of love
Light in our dwellings we may make,
Bid kind good humour brighten there,
And still do all for Jesus' sake.
5 There's not a child so small and weak
But has his little cross to take,
His little work of love and praise
That he may do for Jesus' sake.

O Lord, the Holy Innocents
Author: C. F. Alexander Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #607 (1920) Lyrics: 1 O Lord, the Holy Innocents
Laid down for Thee their infant life,
And martyrs brave and patient saints
Have stood for Thee in fire and strife.
2 We wear the cross they wore of old,
Our lips have learned like vows to make;
We need not die; we cannot fight;
What may we do for Jesus' sake?
3 O day by day each Christian child
Has much to do, without, within;
A death to die for Jesus' sake,
A weary war to wage with sin.
4 When deep within our swelling hearts,
The thoughts of pride and anger rise,
When bitter words are on our tongues,
And tears of passion in our eyes;
5 Then we may stay the angry blow,
Then we may check the hasty word,
Give gentle answers back again,
And fight a battle for our Lord.
6 With smiles of peace and looks of love,
Light in our dwellings we may make,
Bid kind good-humor brighten there,
And do all still for Jesus' sake.
7 There's not a child so weak and small
But has his little cross to take,
His little work of love and praise,
That he may do for Jesus' sake. Topics: Youth and School Life; Youth and School Life Languages: English Tune Title: ALSTONE
