Author: Charles Kingsley, 1819-1875 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 87 hymnals Lyrics: 1 From thee all skill and science flow,
all pity, care, and love,
all calm and courage, faith and hope:
O pour them from above!
Impart them, Lord, to each and all,
as each and all shall need,
to rise, like incense, each to thee,
in noble thought and deed.
2 And hasten, Lord, that perfect day
when pain and death shall cease,
and thy just rule shall fill the earth
with health and light and peace;
when ever-blue the sky shall gleam,
and evergreen the sod,
and our rude work deface no more
the handiwork of God. Topics: Christian Responsibility Used With Tune: THE CHURCH'S DESOLATION
From thee all skill and science flow
