At Thy Feet, Our God and Father

Author: Rev. James D. Burns Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 78 hymnals Lyrics: 1. At Thy feet, our God and Father, Who has blest us all our days, We with grateful hearts would gather, To begin the year with praise: Praise for light so brightly shining On our steps from heav'n above; Praise for mercies daily twining Round us golden cords of love. 2. Jesus, for Thy love most tender, On the cross for sinners shown, We would praise Thee and surrender All our hearts to be Thine own: With so blest a Friend provided, We upon our way would go, Sure of being safely guided, Guarded well from ev'ry foe. 3. Ev'ry day will be the brighter When Thy gracious face we see; Ev'ry burden will be lighter When we know it comes from Thee. Spread Thy love's broad banner o'er us, Give us strength to serve and wait, Till the glory breaks before us Through the city's open gate. Topics: Special Occasions New Year Used With Tune: BETHANY

What a friend we have in Jesus

Author: Joseph Scriven Appears in 1,770 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear-- All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer! 2 Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged; Take it to the Lord in prayer! Can we find a Friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness-- Take it to the Lord in prayer! 3 Are we weak and heavy-laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge!-- Take it to the Lord in prayer! Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He'll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there.
