Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear

Author: John Keble, 1792-1866 Hymnal: Common Praise #21a (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 127:2 Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear, it is not night if thou be near: O may no earth-born cloud arise to hide thee from thy servant's eyes. 2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep my weary eyelids gently steep, be my last thought, how sweet to rest for ever on my Saviour's breast. 3 Abide with me from morn till eve, for without thee I cannot live; abide with me when night is nigh, for without thee I dare not die. 4 If some poor wandering child of thine have spurned to-day the voice divine, now, Lord, the gracious work begin; let him no more lie down in sin. 5 Watch by the sick; enrich the poor with blessings from thy boundless store; be every mourner's sleep to-night, like infant's slumbers, pure and light. 6 Come near and bless us when we wake, ere through the world our way we take; till in the ocean of thy love we lose ourselves in heaven above.

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #242 (1888) Scripture: Psalm 127:1 First Line: Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove! Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove! With all thy quickening powers, Kindle a flame of sacred love In these cold hearts of ours. 2 Look! how we grovel here below, Fond of these trifling toys! Our souls can neither fly nor go To reach eternal joys. 3 In vain we tune our formal songs; In vain we strive to rise; Hosannas languish on our tongues, And our devotion dies. 4 Dear Lord, and shall we ever live At this poor dying rate-- Our love so faint, so cold to thee, And thine to us so great? 5 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove! With all thy quickening powers; Come, shed abroad a Saviour's love, And that shall kindle ours. Topics: The Holy Spirit Languages: English Tune Title: STEPHENS

Psalm 127

Author: Harriet Auber Hymnal: Laudes Domini #466 (1888) Scripture: Psalm 127:1 First Line: Vainly, through night's weary hours Lyrics: 1 Vainly, through night's weary hours, Keep we watch, lest foes alarm; Vain our bulwarks, and our towers, But for God's protecting arm. 2 Vain were all our toil and labor, Did not God that labor bless; Vain, without his grace and favor, Every talent we possess. 3 Vainer still the hope of heaven, That on human strength relies; But to him shall help be given, Who in humble faith applies. 4 Seek we, then, the Lord's Anointed; He will grant us peace and rest; Ne'er was suppliant disappointed, Who thro' Christ his prayer addressed.
