This Child We Dedicate to Thee

Author: S Gilman Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 95 hymnals Lyrics: 1 This child we dedicate to Thee, O God of grace and purity! Shield it from sin and threatening wrong, And let Thy love its life prolong. 2 O may Thy Spirit gently draw Its willing soul to keep Thy law; May virtue, piety, and truth, Dawn even with its dawning youth. 3 We, too, before Thy gracious sight, Once shared the blest baptismal rite, And would renew its solemn vow With love, and thanks, and praises, now. 4 Grant that, with true and faithful heart, We still may act the Christian's part, Cheered by each promise Thou hast given, And laboring for the prize in heaven. AMEN. Topics: Baptism Used With Tune: HEBRON

Thus far we're spared again to meet

Author: Anon. Appears in 23 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thus far we're spared again to meet Before Jehovah's mercy-seat; To seek his face, to sing and pray, And hail another Sabbath-day. 2 Now met to praise his holy name, Whose mercies flow each day the same, Whose kind compassions never cease, We seek instruction, pardon, peace. 3 Let every tongue its silence break, Let every one his goodness speak, Who deigns his glory to display On each returning Sabbath-day.

Blest hour, when mortal man retires

Author: Thomas Raffles Appears in 124 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blest hour, when mortal man retires To hold communion with his God, To send to heaven his warm desires, And listen to the sacred word. 2 Blest hour, when earthly cares resign Their empire o'er his anxious breast; While all around, the calm divine Proclaims the holy day of rest. 3 Blest hour, when God himself draws nigh, Well please his people's voice to hear, To hush the penitential sigh, And wipe away the mourner's tear. 4 Blest hour! for, where the Lord resorts, Foretastes of future bliss are given; And mortals find his earthly courts The house of God, the gate of heaven.
