Again We Meet

And bow in penitence beneath Thy feet;
Again to Thee our grateful voices raise,
To sue for mercy, and to sing Thy praise.
2 O we would bless Thee for Thy ceaseless care,
And all Thy love from day to day declare!
Is not our life with hourly mercies crowned?
Does not Thine arm encircle us around?
3 Alas! unworthy of Thy boundless love,
Too oft with careless feet from Thee we rove;
But now encouraged by Thy voice, we come,
Returning sinners, to a Father's home. Amen.
4 O by that name in which all fullness dwells,
O by that love which ev'ry love excels,
O by that blood so freely shed for sin,
Open blest Mercy's gate, and take us in. Amen. Used With Tune: PAX DEI

All Things Are Thine
Author: Anon. Appears in 92 hymnals Topics: Special Occasions Dedication of Church; Special Occasions Dedication of Church First Line: All things are thine: no gift have we Lyrics: 1 All things are thine; no gift have we,
Lord of all gifts! to offer thee;
And hence, with grateful hearts to-day,
Thine own, before thy feet we lay.

Thy hand unseen amidst us wrought;
Thro' mortal motive, scheme, and plan,
Thy wise, eternal purpose ran.
3 No lack thy perfect fulness knew;
For human needs and longings grew
This house of prayer this home of rest
Here may thy saints be often blest.
4 O Father! deign these walls to bless,
Make this th' abode of righteousness,
And let these doors a gateway be
To lead us from ourselves to thee.

And bless with wisdom, love, and light,
In nameless ways be good and kind,
But never force the human mind.

Take these away, what are we then?
Mere animals, and just as well
The beasts may think of heav’n or hell.

But ways of truth and goodness choose;
Our God is pleased when we improve
His grace and seek his perfect love. Used With Tune: BRAMWELL Text Sources: Boston

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.

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.

Blest the Man That Fears Jehovah
Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 24 hymnals Topics: Special Topics Marriage and the Home Lyrics: 1 Blest the man that fears Jehovah,
walking ever in his ways,
by your toil you shall be prospered
and be happy all your days.

she shall fill your home with good,
happy in her loving service
and the joys of motherhood.

shall about your table meet,
olive plants, in strength and beauty,
full of hope and promise sweet.
4 Lo, on him that fears Jehovah
shall this blessedness attend,
for Jehovah out of Zion
shall to you his blessing send.
5 You shall see God's kingdom prosper
all your days, till life shall cease,
you shall see your children's children;
on your people, Lord, be peace.
