St. Sylvester

Author: Unknown Appears in 11 hymnals First Line: Take my heart, O Father! mold it Lyrics: 1 Take my heart, O Father! mold it In obedience to thy will; And, as ripening years unfold it, Keep it true and child-like still. 2 Father, keep it pure and lowly, Strong and brave, yet free from strife, Turning from the paths unholy Of a vain or sinful life. 3 Ever let thy might surround it; Strengthen it with power divine, Till thy cords of love have bound it, Father, wholly unto thine. Scripture: Proverbs 23:26 Used With Tune: [Take my heart, O Father! mold it]

Father, Hear the Prayer We Offer

Author: Love M. Willis Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 235 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Father, hear the prayer we offer: Nor for ease that prayer shall be, But for strength, that we may ever Live our lives courageously. 2. Not forever in green pastures Do we ask our way to be, But the steep and rugged pathway May we tread rejoicingly. 3. Not forever by still waters Would we idly, quiet stay; But would smite the living fountains From the rocks along our way. 4. Be our strength in hours of weakness, In our wanderings be our Guide; Through endeavor, failure, danger, Father, be Thou at our side. 5. Let our path be bright or dreary, Storm or sunshine be our share; May our souls in hope unweary Make Thy work our ceaseless prayer. Used With Tune: ST. SYLVESTER Text Sources: Tiffany's Monthly Magazine, 1859 ; Hymns of the Spirit, by Samuel Longfellow & Samuel Johnson, 1864, where the text was modified considerably, probably by Longfellow
