The Tender Love a Father Has
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: Will of God Lyrics: 1 The tender love a father has
For all his children dear,
Such love the Lord bestows on them
Who worship Him in fear.
2 The Lord remembers we are dust,
And all our frailty knows;
Man’s days are like the tender grass,
And as the flower he grows.
3 The flower is withered by the wind
That smites with blighting breath;
So man is quickly swept away
Before the blast of death.
4 Unchanging is the love of God,
From age to age the same,
Displayed to all who do His will
And reverence His name.
5 Those who His gracious covenant keep
The Lord will ever bless;
Their children’s children shall rejoice
To see His righteousness. Scripture: Psalm 103 Used With Tune: AVONDALE
The Tender Love a Father Has
How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.6.8.8.6.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Topics: Will of God Lyrics: 1 How clear is our vocation, Lord,
when once we heed your call
to live according to your word
and daily learn, refreshed, restored,
that you are Lord of all
and will not let us fall.
2 But if, forgetful, we should find
your yoke is hard to bear;
if worldly pressures fray the mind
and love itself cannot unwind
its tangled skein of care:
our inward life repair.
3 We marvel how your saints became
in hindrances more sure:
whose joyful virtues put to shame
the casual way we wear your name,
and by our faults obscure
your power to cleanse and cure.
4 In what you give us, Lord, to do,
together or alone,
in old routines or ventures new,
may we not cease to look to you:
the cross you hung upon,
all you endeavored, done.
Scripture: Isaiah 6:8 Used With Tune: REPTON
How Clear Is Our Vocation, Lord
Come, Labor On
Author: Jane Laurie Borthwick Meter: 4.10.10.10.4 Appears in 71 hymnals Topics: Will of God Lyrics: 1 Come, labor on.
Who dares stand idle on the harvest plain
while all around us waves the golden grain?
And to each servant does the Master say,
"Go work today."
2 Come, labor on.
Claim the high calling angels cannot share;
to young and old the gospel gladness bear.
Redeem the time; its hours too swiftly fly.
The night draws nigh.
3 Come, labor on.
Cast off all gloomy doubt and faithless fear!
No arm so weak but may do service here.
Though feeble agents, may we all fulfill
God's righteous will.
4 Come, labor on.
No time for rest, till glows the western sky,
till the long shadows o'er our pathway lie,
and a glad sound comes with the setting sun,
"Well done, well done!" Scripture: Matthew 9:37-38 Used With Tune: ORA LABORA
Come, Labor On
O Savior, in This Quiet Place
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Will of God Lyrics: 1 O Savior, in this quiet place,
where anyone may kneel,
I also come to ask for grace,
believing you can heal.
2 If pain of body, stress of mind,
destroys my inward peace,
in prayer for others may I find
the secret of release.
3 If self upon its sickness feeds
and turns my life to gall,
let me not brood upon my needs,
but simply tell you all.
4 You never said “You ask too much”
to any troubled soul.
I long to feel your healing touch;
will you not make me whole?
5 But if the thing I most desire
is not your way for me,
may faith, when tested in the fire,
prove its integrity.
6 Of all my prayers, may this be chief:
till faith is fully grown,
Lord, disbelieve my unbelief,
and claim me as your own.
Scripture: Luke 18:9-14 Used With Tune: ST. STEPHEN
O Savior, in This Quiet Place
From Ocean unto Ocean
Author: Robert Murray Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 78 hymnals Topics: Will of God; Will of God Lyrics: 1 From ocean unto ocean
our land shall name you, Lord
and, filled with true devotion,
obey your sovereign Word.
Our prairies and our mountains,
the forest, fertile field,
our rivers, lakes, and fountains
to you shall tribute yield.
2 O Christ, for your own glory
and for our country's weal;
we humbly plead before you:
yourself in us reveal.
And may we know, Lord Jesus,
the touch of your dear hand,
and, healed of our diseases,
the tempter's power withstand.
3 Where error smites with blindness,
enslaves, and leads astray,
proclaim in loving-kindness
your joyful gospel day,
till all the tribes and races
that dwell in this fair land,
adorned with Christian graces,
within your courts shall stand.
4 Our Savior King, defend us
and guide where we should go;
forth with your message send us,
your love and light to show,
till, fired with true devotion
and kindled by your Word,
from ocean unto ocean
our land shall name you Lord.
