Glorious Things of You Are Spoken
O Blest the House, Whate'er Befall
Author: Christoph Carl Ludwig von Pfeil Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: Family Life Dedication of a New Home Lyrics: 1 O blest the house, whate'er befall,
Where Jesus Christ is All in all;
Yea, if He were not dwelling there,
How poor and dark and void it were!
2 O blest that house where faith ye find
And all within have set their mind
To trust their God and serve Him still,
And do in all His holy will.
3 O blest the parents who give heed
Unto their children's foremost need,
And weary not of care or cost:
To them and heaven shall none be lost.
4 Blest such a house, it prospers well,
In peace and joy the parents dwell,
And in their children's lot is shown
How richly God can bless His own.
5 Then here will I and mine to-day
A solemn covenant make and say:
Though all the world forsake Thy Word,
I and my house will serve the Lord.
Amen. Used With Tune: RETREAT

Father of All, Thy Care We Bless
Author: Philip Doddridge Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 102 hymnals Topics: Family Life Dedication of a New Home Lyrics: 1 Father of all, Thy care we bless,
Which crowns our families with peace:
From Thee they spring; and by Thy hand
They are and shall be still sustained.
2 To God, most worthy to be praised,
Be our domestic altars raised;
Who, Lord of heav'n, yet deigns to come
And sanctify our humblest home.
3 To Thee may each united house
Morning and night present its vows;
Our children these, the rising race,
Be taught Thy precepts and Thy grace.
4 So may each future age proclaim
The honors of Thy glorious Name,
And each succeeding race remove
To join the family above.
Amen. Used With Tune: MARYTON

Lord of Life and King of Glory
Author: Christian Burke, 1859-c.1915 Appears in 35 hymnals Topics: Children's Hymns about Children; Dedication of Children; Mother's Day; The Christian Way of Life Home and Family Lyrics: 1 Lord of life and King of glory,
Who didst deign a child to be,
Cradled on a mother’s bosom,
Throned upon a mother’s knee:
For the children Thou hast given
We must answer unto Thee!
2 Since the day the blessed mother
Thee, the world's Redeemer, bore,
Thou hast crowned us with an honor
Women never knew before;
And that we may bear it meetly,
We must seek Thine aid the more.
3 Grant us then pure hearts and patient,
That in all we do or say
Little ones our deeds may copy,
And be never led astray;
Little feet our steps may follow
In a safe and narrow way.
4 When our growing sons and daughters
Look on life with eager eyes,
Grant us then a deeper insight
And new powers of sacrifice:
Hope to trust them, faith to guide them,
Love that nothing good denies.
5 May we keep our holy calling
Stainless in its fair renown,
That, when all the work is over
And we lay the burdens down,
Then the children Thou hast given
Still may be our joy and crown.
Amen. Used With Tune: SICILIAN MARINER'S HYMN

Lo! a spring of joy I see;
Gushing from the rock before me,
Lo! A spring of joy I see.

Wings its flight to realms of day,

To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of thy name.

'Tis life, and health, and peace.

He sets the pris'ner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean;
His blood availed for me.

New life the dead receive;
The mournful, broken hearts rejoice;
The humble poor, believe.

Your loosened tongues employ;
Ye blind, behold your Savior come,
And leap, ye lame, for joy.

Shall feel your sins forgiv'n;
Anticipate your heav'n below,
And own that love is heav'n. Scripture: Psalm 145:10-12 Used With Tune: AZMON

Each other's burdens bear;
And often for each other flows
The sympathizing tear.

And sin we shall be free;
And perfect love and joy shall reign
Through all eternity. Scripture: Acts 20:37-38 Used With Tune: DENNIS

Lo! God is here! let us adore,
And own how dreadful in this place!
Let all within us feel His power,
And silent bow before His face;
Who know His power, His grace who prove,
Serve Him with awe, with reverence love.
2. Lo! God is here! Him day and night
United choirs of angels sing;
To Him, enthroned above all height,
Heaven's host their noblest praises bring;
Disdain not, Lord, our meaner song,
Who praise Thee with a stammering tongue.
3. Gladly the toys of earth we leave,
Wealth, pleasure, fame, for Thee alone;
To Thee our will, soul, flesh, we give;
O take, O seal them for Thine own!
For Thou art God, Thou at the Lord;
Be Thou by all Thy works adored.
4. Being of beings! may our praise
Thy courts with grateful fragrance fill;
Still may we stand before Thy face,
Still hear and do Thy sovereign will;
To Thee may all our thoughts arise,
Ceaseless, accepted sacrifice.
5. As flowers their opening leaves display,
And glad drink in the solar fire,
So may we catch Thy every ray,
So may Thy influence us inspire;
Thou Beam of the eternal Beam,
Thou purging Fire, Thou quickening Flame. Used With Tune: STELLA
Lo! God is here! let us adore

holy nation, chosen race;
called as God's own special people,
royal priests and heirs of grace:
know the purpose of your calling,
show to all God's mighty deeds;
tell of love which knows no limits,
grace which meets all human needs.
2 God has called you out of darkness
into his most marv'lous light,
brought his truth to life within you,
turned your blindness into sight.
Let your light so shine around you
that God's name is glorified;
and all find fresh hope and purpose
in Christ Jesus crucified.
3 Once you were an alien people,
strangers to God's heart of love;
but he brought you home in mercy,
citizens of heav'n above.
Let his love flow out to others,
let them feel a Father's care;
that they too may know his welcome
and his countless blessings share.
4 Church of God, elect and holy,
be the people he intends;
strong in faith and swift to answer
each command your master sends:
royal priests, fulfill your calling
through your sacrifice and prayer;
give your lives in joyful service,
sing his praise, his love declare. Scripture: 1 Peter 2 Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL
