Shepherd of tender youth
Author: Henry M. Dexter; Clement of Alexandria Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #317 (1899) Topics: Early Piety Lyrics: 1 Shepherd of tender youth,
Guiding in love and truth
Through devious ways;
Christ our triumphant King,
Join we Thy Name to sing,
And our dear children bring,
Shouting Thy praise.
2 Thou art the great High Priest;
Thou hast prepared the feast
Of heavenly love:
In all our sin and pain
None call on Thee in vain.
Help Thou dost not disdain,
Help from above.
3 Ever be near our side,
All-wise and mighty Guide,
Our Staff and Song.
Jesus, Thou Christ of God,
Taught by Thy living Word,
Lead us where Thou hast trod,
Make our faith strong.
4 Thus now, and till we die,
Sound we Thy praises high,
And joyful sing.
With all the holy throng,
Who to Thy Church belong,
Join we to swell the song
To Christ our King!
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: KIRBY BEDON
Shepherd of tender youth
God of my life, through all its days
Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #317 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1 God of my life, through all its days,
My grateful pow'rs shall sound thy praise;
My song shall wake with op'ning light,
And cheer the dark and silent night.
2 When anxious cares would break my rest,
And griefs would tear my throbbing breast,
Thy tuneful praises, rais'd on high,
Shall check the murmur and the sigh.
3 When death o’er nature shall prevail,
And all its pow'rs of language fail;
Joy through my swimming eyes shall break,
And mean the thanks I cannot speak.
4 But O when that last conflict’s o’er,
And I am chain'd to earth no more,
With what glad accents shall I rise
To join the music of the skies!
5 Soon shall I learn th' exalted strains
Which echo through the heav'nly plains;
And emulate, with joy unknown,
The glowing seraphs round the throne. Languages: English
God of my life, through all its days
My Father! cheering name!
Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #318 (1814) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1 My Father! cheering name!
Oh, may I call thee mine!
Give me with humble hope to claim
A portion so divine.
2 This can my fears control,
And bid my sorrows fly:
What real harm can reach my soul
Beneath my Father's eye?
3 Whate'er Thy will denies,
I calmly would resign;
For thou art just, and good, and wise:
O bend my will to thine!
4 Whate'er thy will ordains,
Oh, give me strength to bear;
Still let me know a Father reigns,
And trust a Father's care.
5 If anguish rend this frame,
And life almost depart:
Is not thy mercy still the same,
To cheer my drooping heart?
6 Thy ways are little known
To my weak, erring sight;
Yet shall my soul, believing, own,
That all thy ways are right.
7 My Father! blissful name!
Beyond expression dear:
If thou admit my humble claim,
I bid adieu to fear. Languages: English
My Father! cheering name!
O Lord! my best desires fulfil
Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #319 (1814) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1 O Lord! my best desires fulfil,
And help me to resign
Life, health, and comfort to thy will;
And make thy pleasure mine.
2 Why should I shrink at thy command
Whose love forbids my fears?
Or tremble at the gracious hand
That wipes away my tears?
3 No; let me rather freely yield
What most I prize to thee,
Who never hast a good withheld,
Or wilt withhold from me.
4 Wisdom and mercy guide my way:
Shall I resist them both?
Short-sighted creature of a day,
And crush'd before the moth?
5 But ah! my heart within me cries,
Still bind me to thy sway;
Else the next cloud that veils my skies
Drives all these thoughts away. Languages: English
O Lord! my best desires fulfil
When present suff'rings pain our hearts
Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #320 (1814) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1 When present suff'rings pain my heart,
Or future terrors rise,
And life and hope almost depart
From these dejected eyes:
2 Thy pow'rful word supports my hope,
Sweet cordial of the mind!
And bears my fainting spirit up,
And bids me wait resign'd.
3 And og! whate're of earthly bliss
Thy providence denies,
Accepted at thy throne of grace
Let this petition rise:
4 Give me a calm, a thankful heart,
From ev'ry murmur free;
The blessings of thy grace impart,
And let me live to thee.
5 Let the sweet hope, that I am thine,
My path of life attend;
Thy presence through my journey shine,
And crown my journey's end! Languages: English
When present suff'rings pain our hearts

Why sinks my weak desponding mind?
Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #321 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1 Why sinks my weak desponding mind?
Why heaves my heart the anxious sigh?
Can sov'reign goodness be unkind?
Am I not safe, if God be nigh?
2 He holds all nature in his hand:
That gracious hand on which I live,
Does life, and time, and death command,
And has immortal joys to give.
3 Infinite wisdom! boundless pow'r!
Unchanging faithfulness and love!--
Here let me trust, while I adore,
Nor from my refuge e'er remove.
5 Forgive my doubts, O gracious Lord!
And ease the sorrows of my breast;
Speak to my heart the healing word,
That thou art mine,--and I am blest. Languages: English

Why is my heart with grief opprest?
Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #322 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1 Why is my heart with grief oppress?
Can all the pains I feel or fear
Make thee, my soul, forget thy rest,
Forget that God, thy God is near?
2 Mortality's unnumber'd ills
Are all beneath his sov'reign hand;
Each pain, which this frail body feels,
Attends, obedient, his command.
3 Lord, form my temper to thy will!
If thou my faith and patience prove,
May ev'ry painful stroke fulfil
The purposes of faithful love!
4 O may this weak, this fainting mind
A Father's hand adoring see;
Confess thee just, and wise, and kind,
And trust thy word, and cleave to thee! Languages: English
Why is my heart with grief opprest?
