If God to build the house deny
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #414 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Psalm 127 Lyrics:
If God to build the house deny,
The builders work in vain;
And towns, without his wakeful eye,
A useless watch maintain.
Before the morning beams arise,
Your painful work renew;
And till the stars ascend the skies,
Your tiresome toil pursue;
Short be your sleep, and coarse your fare;
In vain, till God has blessed;
But if his smiles attend your care,
You shall have food and rest.
Nor children, relatives, nor friends,
Shall real blessings prove;
Nor all the earthly joys he sends,
If sent without his love.

O Father, All Creating
Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #621 (1941) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Psalm 127:1 First Line: O Father all creating Lyrics: 1 O Father, all creating,
Whose wisdom, love, and pow'r
First bound two lives together
In Eden’s primal hour,
Today to these Thy children
Thine earliest gifts renew,--
A home by Thee made happy,
A love by Thee kept true.
2 O Savior, Guest most bounteous
Of old in Galilee,
Vouchsafe today Thy presence
With these who call on Thee.
Their store of earthly gladness
Transform to heav'nly wine
And teach them, in the tasting,
To know the gift is Thine.
3 O Spirit of the Father,
Breathe on them from above,
So mighty in Thy pureness,
So tender in Thy love,
That, guarded by Thy presence,
From sin and strife kept free,
Their lives may own Thy guidance,
Their hearts be ruled by Thee.
4 Except Thou build it, Father,
The house is built in vain;
Except Thou, Savior, bless it,
The joy will turn to pain.
But naught can break the union
Of hearts in Thee made one,
And love Thy Spirit hallows
Is endless love begun.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Home Marriage Languages: English Tune Title: EDEN
