Take Me, O My Father, Take Me
Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 145 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Take me, O my Father, take me;
take me, save me, through thy Son;
that which thou wouldst have me, make me,
let thy will in me be done.
Long from thee my footsteps straying,
thorny proved the way I trod;
weary come I now, and praying,
take me to thy love, my God.
2 Fruitless years with grief recalling,
humbly I confess my sin;
at thy feet, O Father, falling,
to thy household take me in.
Freely now to thee I proffer
this relenting heart of mine;
freely life and soul I offer,
gift unworthy love like thine.
3 Once the world's Redeemer, dying,
bore our sins upon the tree;
on that sacrifice relying,
now I look in hope to thee:
Father, take me; all forgiving,
fold me to thy loving breast;
in thy love for ever living
I must be forever blest.

Take Me, O My Father, Take Me
Saviour, breathe an evening blessing
Author: James Edmeston; Edward H. Bickersteth Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 846 hymnals Lyrics:
Savior, breathe an evening blessing,
Ere repose our spirits seal;
Sin and want we come confessing;
Thou canst save, and thou canst heal.
Though the night be dark and dreary,
Darkness cannot hide from thee;
Thou art he who, never weary,
Watchest where thy people be.
Though destruction walk around us,
Though the arrows past us fly,
Angel-guards from thee surround us;
We are safe, if thou art nigh.
Be thou nigh, should death o'ertake us;
Jesus, then our refuge be,
And in Paradise awake us,
There to rest in peace with thee.
Father, to thy holy keeping
Humbly we ourselves resign;
Savior, who hast slept our sleeping,
Make our slumbers pure as thine;
Blessed Spirit, brooding o'er us,
Chase the darkness of our night,
Till the perfect day before us
Breaks in everlasting light.
Amen.

Hark, What Mean Those Holy Voices
Author: John Cawood Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 723 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hark, what mean those holy voices
Sweetly sounding thro' the skies?
Lo, th' angelic host rejoices;
Heav'nly hallelujahs rise.
Listen to the wondrous story,
Which they chant in hymns of joy:
Glory in the highest, glory!
Glory be to God most high!
2 Peace on earth, good-will from heaven,
Reaching far as man is found;
Souls redeemed, and sins forgiven;
Loud our golden harps shall sound.
Christ is born, the great Anointed;
Heav'n and earth His praises sing!
O receive whom God appointed
For your Prophet, Priest and King.
3 Hasten, mortals, to adore Him;
Learn His name and taste His joy;
Till in heav'n ye sing before Him,
Glory be to God most high!
Let us learn the wondrous story
Of our great Redeemer's birth;
Spread the brightness of His glory
Till it cover all the earth.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Christmas; Processionals and Recessionals Christmas Used With Tune: RUSSIAN VESPER

The Pilgrim
Author: Thomas Hastings Appears in 483 hymnals First Line: Gently, Lord, oh, gently lead us Lyrics: 1 Gently, Lord, oh, gently lead us,
Through this lonely vale of tears;
Through the changes thou'st decreed us,
Till our last great change appears.
When temptation's darts assail us,
When in devious paths we stray,
Let thy goodness never fail us,
Lead us in thy perfect way.
2 In the hour of pain and anguish,
In the hour when death draws near,
Suffer not our hearts to languish,
Suffer not our souls to fear,
And when mortal life is ended,
Bid us in thine arms to rest,
Till, by angel bands attended,
We awake among the blest. Topics: Close of Service Used With Tune: VESPER HYMN
