Seek Not Afar for Beauty

Author: Minot J. Savage Hymnal: H4BG1935 #167 (1936) Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: Seek not afar for beauty: lo, it glows Lyrics: 1 Seek not afar for beauty: lo, it glows In dew-wet grasses all bout thy feet; In birds, in sunshine, childish faces sweet, In stars and mountain summits topped with snows. 2 Go not abroad for happiness: for see, It is a flower blooming at thy door. Bring love and justice home, and then no more Thou'lt wonder in what dwelling joy may be. 3 Dream not of noble service elsewhere wrought; The simple duty that awaits thy hand Is God's voice offering a divine command, Life's common deeds build all that saints have thought. 4 In wonder-workings, or some bush aflame, Men look for God and fancy him concealed; But in earth's common things he stands revealed, While grass and flowers and stars spell out his name.

To God Who Makes All Lovely Things

Author: J. M. C. Crum Hymnal: H4BG1935 #168 (1936) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 To God who makes all lovely things How happy must our praises be! Each day a new surprise he brings, To make us glad is world to see. 2 How plentiful must be the mines From which he gives his gold away; In March he gives us celandines, he gives buttercups in May. 3 He grows the wheat and never stops; There's none can count the blades of green; And up among the elm-tree tops As many thousand leaves are seen. 4 And when the wheat is bound in sheaves He sends his wind among the trees, And down come all the merry leaves In yellow-twinkling companies. 5 On winter nights his quiet flakes Come falling, falling all the night, And when the world next morning wakes It finds itself all shining white. 6 He makes the sea that shines afar With waves that dance unceasingly; And every single little star That twinkles in the evening sky. 7 He made the people that I meet, The many people great and small In home and school, and down the street, And he made me to love them all. Tune Title: DANIEL

Hush! My Dear

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: H4BG1935 #169 (1936) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Hush! my dear, lie still and slumber Lyrics: 1 Hush! my dear, lie still and slumber; Holy angels guard thy bed! Heav'nly blessings without number Gently falling on thy head. How much better thou'rt attended Than the Son of God could be When from heaven he descended, And became a child like thee. 2 Soft and easy is thy cradle; Coarse and hard thy Saviour lay, When his birth-place was a stable, And his softest bed was hay. May’st thou live to know and fear him, Trust and love him all thy days: Then go dwell for ever near him, See his face, and sing his praise. Tune Title: LULLABY
