O Lord, Thy Benediction Give
Author: John Armstrong Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #372 (1957) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, Thy benediction give
On all who teach, on all who learn,
So that Thy church may holier live,
And every lamp more brightly burn.
2 Give those who teach pure hearts of love—
Hearts filled with faith and warmed by prayer—
And souls attuned to Thee above,
That they may guide Thy people there.
3 Give those that learn the willing ear,
The spirit meek, the guileless mind.
Such gifts will make the lowliest here
Far better than a kingdom find.
4 O bless the shepherd, bless the sheep,
That guide and guided both be one,
One in the faithful watch they keep,
One in the joy of work well done.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 18:20 Tune Title: ABENDS

O Love divine, that stooped to share
Author: Oliver Wendell Holmes Hymnal: The Hymnal #400 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics:
O Love divine, that stooped to share
Our sharpest pang, our bitterest tear!
On thee we cast each earth-born care;
We smile at pain while thou art near.
Though long the weary way we tread,
And sorrow crown each lingering year,
No path we shun, no darkness dread,
Our hearts still whispering, thou art near.
When drooping pleasure turns to grief,
And trembling faith is changed to fear,
The murmuring wind, the quivering leaf,
Shall softly tell us, thou art near.
On thee we rest our burdening woe,
O Love divine, for ever dear!
Content to suffer while we know,
Living and dying, thou art near.
Amen.

O holy Lord, content to fill
Author: William Walsham How Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #417 (1917) Lyrics: 1 O holy Lord, content to fill
In lowly home the lowliest place,
Thy childhood’s law a mother’s will,
Obedience meek Thy brightest grace;
2 Lead every child that bears Thy Name
To walk in Thine own guileless way,
To dread the touch of sin and shame,
And humbly, like Thyself, obey.
3 Gather Thy lambs within Thine arm,
And gently in Thy bosom bear;
Keep them, O Lord, from hurt and harm,
And bid them rest forever there.
4 So shall they, waiting here below,
Like Thee, their Lord, a little span,
In wisdom and in stature grow,
And favor with both God and man.

It May Not Be Our Lot to Wield
Author: John G Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #437 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 It may not be our lot to wield
The sickle in the ripened field;
Nor ours to hear, on summer eves,
The reaper's song among the sheaves.
2 Yet where our duty's task is wrought
In unison with God's great thought,
The near and future blend in one,
And whatsoe'er is willed, is done.
3 And ours the grateful service whence
Comes, day by day, the recompense;
The hope, the trust, the purpose stayed,
The fountain, and the noonday shade.
4 And were this life the utmost span,
The only end and aim of man,
Better the toil of fields like these
Than waking dream and slothful ease.
5 But life, though falling like our grain,
Like that revives and springs again;
And, early called, how blest are they
Who wait in heaven their harvest day!
