Death of a Child

Hymnal: BHPPD866 #411 (1866) First Line: Fare thee well, our fondly cherished! Lyrics: Fare thee well, our fondly cherished! Dear, dear blossom, fare thee well! He who lent thee hath recalled thee, Back with Him and His to dwell. Like a sunbeam through our dwelling Shone thy presence, bright and calm; Thou didst add a zest to pleasure; To our sorrows thou wast balm. Yet while mourning, O our lost one, Come no visions of despair! Seated on thy tomb, Faith’s angel Saith, thou art not, art not there. Where, then, art thou? with the Saviour, Blest, forever blest, to be; ’Mid the sinless little children Who have heard his “Come to me.” Passed the shades of death’s dark valley, Thou art leaning on his breast, Where the wicked may not enter, And the weary are at rest. Plead, that in a Father’s mercy All our sins may be forgiven; Angel! plead, that thou may’st greet us, Ransomed, at the gates of heaven. Languages: English

Struggling Upward

Author: Wesley Hymnal: BHPPD866 #523 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Father divine, our wants relieve Lyrics: Father divine, our wants relieve In this our evil day; To all Thy tempted children give The power to watch and pray. Long as our fiery trials last, Long as the cross we bear, O, let our souls on Thee be cast, In never-ceasing prayer! Thy spirit of untroubled peace Give us in faith to claim, To wrestle till we see Thy face, And know Thy hidden name. Till Thou Thy perfect love impart, Till Thou Thyself bestow, Be this the cry of every heart,— I will not let Thee go; I will not let Thee go, unless Thou tell Thy name to me; With all Thy great salvation bless, And make me all like Thee. Then let us, on the mountain top, Behold Thine unveiled face, Where faith in sight is swallowed up, And prayer in endless praise. Languages: English

The Son

Author: Jones Very Hymnal: BHPPD866 #268 (1866) First Line: Father! I wait Thy word. The sun doth stand Lyrics: Father! I wait Thy word. The sun doth stand Beneath the mingling line of night and day, A listening servant, waiting Thy command, To roll rejoicing on its silent way. The tongue of time abides the appointed hour, Till on our ear its solemn warnings fall; The heavy cloud withholds the pelting shower,— Then, every drop speeds onward at Thy call. The bird reposes on the yielding bough, With breast unswollen by the tide of song;— So does my spirit wait Thy presence now, To pour Thy praise in quickening life along. Languages: English
