God Leads Us Along
Author: G. A. Young Hymnal: The Hymnal for Worship and Celebration #46 (1986) Meter: 11.8.11.8 D with refrain Topics: Dedication of Children and Parents First Line: In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet Refrain First Line: Some thro' the waters, some thro' the flood Lyrics: 1 In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet,
God leads His dear children along;
Where the water’s cool flow bathes the weary one’s feet,
God leads His dear children along.
Refrain:
Some thro' the waters, some through the flood,
Some thro' the fire, but all thro' the blood;
Some thro' great sorrow, but God gives a song,
In the night season and all the day long.
2 Sometimes on the mount where the sun shines so bright,
God leads His dear children along;
Sometimes in the valley, in darkest of night,
God leads His dear children along. [Refrain]
3 Though sorrows befall us and Satan oppose,
God leads His dear children along;
Through grace we can conquer, defeat all our foes,
God leads His dear children along. [Refrain]
4. Away from the mire, and away from the clay,
God leads His dear children along;
Away up in glory, eternity’s day,
God leads His dear children along. Languages: English Tune Title: GOD LEADS US

burst to my bedside with the day’s surprise;
faith in the marvelous bloomed anew each dawn,
flowers bursting fresh within my heart each day.
2 Then looking on the world with simple joy,
on insects, birds, and beasts, and common weeds,
the grass and clouds had fullest wealth of awe;
my mother’s voice gave meaning to the stars.
3 Now when I turn to think of coming death,
I find life’s song in star-songs of the night,
in rise of curtains and new morning light,
in life reborn in fresh surprise of love. Languages: English Tune Title: SURSUM CORDA

For 'twas to bless such souls as these
The Lord of angels came."

And yield them up to Thee;
Joyful that we ourselves are Thine,
Thine let our offspring be.

Savior, Who Thy Flock Art Feeding
Author: William A. Mühlenberg Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #217 (1974) Topics: Dedications of Children and Parents Lyrics:
1 Savior, who Thy flock art feeding
With the shepherd's kindest care,
All the feeble gently leading,
While the lambs Thy bosom share.
2 Now, these little ones receiving,
Fold them in Thy gracious arm;
There we know, Thy word believing,
Only there secure from harm.
3 Never, from Thy pasture roving
Let them be the lion's prey;
Let Thy tenderness, so loving,
Keep them thro' life's dangerous way.
4 Then, within Thy fold eternal,
Let them find a resting-place,
Feed in pastures ever vernal
Drink the rivers of Thy grace.
Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 40:11 Languages: English Tune Title: BROCKLESBURY

Thy visits, Jesus Christ, the soul's true friend;
That, far beyond all other guests, believeth
It must to Thee its warmest cheer extend;
Where every heart to Thee is fondly turning,
Where every eye for Thee with pleasure speaks,
Where all to know Thy will are truly yearning,
And every one to do it promptly seeks.
2 O blessed house, where man and wife, united
In Thy true love, have both one heart and mind;
Where both to Thy salvation are invited,
And in Thy doctrine both contentment find;
Where both, to Thee in truth for ever cleaving,
In joy, in grief, make Thee their only stay,
And fondly hope in Thee to be believing,
Both in the good and in the evil day.
3 O blessed house, where little children tender
Are laid upon Thy heart, with hands of prayer,
Thou Friend of children, who wilt freely render
To them more than a mother's loving care;
Where round Thy feet they gather, to Thee clinging,
And hear Thy loving voice most willingly,
And in their songs, Thy hearty praises ringing,
Rejoice in Thee, O blessed Lord, in Thee.
4 O blessed house, where faithful servants, knowing
That all their works are done within Thy sight,
In all their work with holy zeal are glowing
To do alone what Thou esteemest right;
As Thy true servants, in whom Thou delightest,
In meekness willing, by that love constrained
Which shows, in all its works, the least, the brightest,
How in small things great faith may be maintained.
5 O blessed house, the joys of which Thou sharest,
And never art forgot in scenes of joy;
O blessed house, for whose sad wounds Thou carest,
Where all the sick Thy healing power employ;
Until at last the day's work fully ended,
All finally in joyful rapture fly
To that blest house to which Thou hast ascended,
Unto the blessed Father's house on high. Languages: English Tune Title: O BLESSED HOUSE
O blessed house, that cheerfully receiveth
