Sun of my soul, Thou Saviour dear

Hymnal: SSBR1909 #128 (1903) Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, Thou Saviour dear, It is not night if Thou be near; Oh, may no earth-born cloud arise To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes. 2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep My wearied 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 slumber, 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.

Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me

Hymnal: SSBR1909 #129 (1903) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me; Bless Thy little lamb to night; Through the darkness be Thou near me; Keep me safe till morning light. 2 All this day Thy hand has led me, And I thank Thee for Thy care: Thou hast clothed me, warmed and fed me, Listen to my evening prayer. 3 May my sins be all forgiven; Bless the friends I love so well; Take me, Lord, at last to heaven. Happy there with Thee to dwell. Topics: The Christian Graces; Love The Home

Abide with me! fast falls the eventide

Hymnal: SSBR1909 #130 (1903) First Line: Abide with me, fast falls the eventide Lyrics: 1 Abide with me! fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens: Lord, with me abide! When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me! 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O Thou who changest not, abide with me! 3 Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word, But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord, Familiar, condescending, patient, free Come, not to sojourn, but abide with me! 4 Come not in terrors as the King of kings, But kind and good, with healing on Thy wings; Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea; O Friend of sinner, thus abide with me! 5 Thou on my head in early youth didst smile, And, though rebellious and perverse meanwhile, Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee: On to the close, O Lord, abide with me! 6 I need Thy presence every passing hour: What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me! 7 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless: Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness. Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me! 8 Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes, Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies: Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!

Jesus, holy, undefiled

Hymnal: SSBR1909 #133 (1903) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, holy, undefiled, Listen to a little child; Thou hast sent the glorious light, Chasing far the silent night. 2 Thou hast sent the sun to shine O'er this glorious world of Thine; Warmth to give and pleasant glow On each tender flower below. 3 Now the little birds arise, Chirping gaily in the skies; Thee their tiny voices praise In the early songs they raise. 4 Thou, by whom the birds are fed, Give to me my daily bread; And Thy Holy Spirit give, Without whom I cannot live. 5 Make me, Lord, obedient, mild, As becomes a little child; All day long, in every way, Teach me what to do and say. 6 Help me never to forget That in Thy great Book is set All that children think and say, For the awful Judgment Day. 7 Let me never say a word That will make Thee angry, Lord, Help me so to live in love, As Thine angels do above. 8 Make me, Lord, in work and play, Thine more truly every day; And when Thou at last shall come, Take me to Thy heavenly home.

How shall the young secure their hearts

Hymnal: SSBR1909 #134 (1903) Lyrics: 1 How shall the young secure their hearts, And guard their lives from sin? Thy Word the choicest rules imparts To keep the conscience clean. 2 'Tis like the sun, a heavenly light, That guides us all the day; And through the dangers of the night A lamp to lead our way. 3 The starry heavens Thy rule obey, The earth maintains her place; And these Thy servants, night and day, Thy skill and power express. 4 But still Thy law and gospel, Lord, Have lessons more divine; Not earth stands firmer than Thy Word, No stars so nobly shine. 5 Thy Word is everlasting truth: How pure is every page! That holy Book shall guide our youth, And well support our age. Topics: The Christian Graces; Love The School

Jesus, high in glory

Hymnal: SSBR1909 #135 (1903) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, high in glory, Lend a listening ear, When we bow before Thee, Children's praises hear. 2 Though Thou art so holy, Heaven's Almighty King, Thou wilt stoop to listen, When Thy praise we sing. 3 We are little children, Weak and apt to stray; Saviour, guide and keep us In the heavenly way. 4 Save us, Lord, from sinning, Watch us day by day; Help us now to love Thee; Take our sins away: 5 Then, when Jesus calls us To our heavenly home, We would gladly answer, Saviour, Lord, we come.

My country, 'tis of thee

Hymnal: SSBR1909 #137 (1903) Lyrics: 1 My country, 'tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing; Land where my fathers died, Land of the pilgrim's pride, From every mountain side Let freedom ring. 2 My native country, thee-- Land of the noble, free, Thy name I love, I love thy rocks and rills, Thy woods and templed hills; My heart with rapture thrills Like that above. 3 Let music swell the breeze, And ring from all the trees Sweet freedom's song: Let mortal tongues awake; Let all that breathe partake; Let rocks their silence break-- The sound prolong. 4 Our fathers' God, to Thee, Author of liberty, To Thee we sing: Long may our land be bright With freedom's holy light; Protect us by Thy might, Great God, our King.
