Blest Be the Man that Fears Jehovah

Hymnal: NCH1929 #365 (1929) Meter: 8.7.8.7 First Line: Blest the man that fears Jehovah Lyrics: 1. Blest the man that fears Jehovah, Walking ever in his ways; By thy toil thou shalt be prospered And be happy all thy days. 2. In thy wife thou shalt have gladness, She shall fill thy home with good, Happy in her loving service And the joys of motherhood. 3. Joyful children, sons and daughters, Shall about thy 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 Jehovan out of Zion Shall to thee His blessing send. 5. Thou shalt see God's kingdom prosper All thy days, till life shall cease, Thou shalt see thy children's children; On Thy people, Lord, be peace.

Brightest and Best of the Sons

Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: NCH1929 #63 (1929) Meter: 11.10.11.10 First Line: Brightest and best of the sons of the morning Lyrics: 1. Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, Dawn on our darkness and lend us Thine aid; Star of the east, the horizon adorning, Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. 2. Say, shall we yield Him, in costly devotion, Odors of Edom and off'rings divine. Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine? 3. Vainly we offer each ample oblation, Vainly with gifts would His favor secure; Richer by far is the heart's adoration, Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.

By Cool Siloam's Shady Rill

Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: NCH1929 #375 (1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. By cool Siloam's shady rill, How sweet the lily grows! How sweet the breath, beneath the hill, Of Sharon's dewy rose! 2. Lo, such the child whose early feet The paths of peace have trod; Whose secret heart, with influence sweet, Is upward drawn to God. 3. And soon, too soon, the wintry hour Of man's maturer age Will shake the soul with sorrow's pow'r And stormy passion's rage. 4. O Thou, whose infant feet were found Within Thy Father's shrine, Whose year, with changeless virtue crowned, Were all alike divine; 5. Dependent on Thy bounteous breath, We seek Thy grace alone In childhood, manhood, age, and death, To keep us still Thine own. Topics: Home and Youth Children Languages: English Tune Title: SILOAM

Calm on the Listening Ear of Night

Author: Edmund H. Sears Hymnal: NCH1929 #61 (1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: Calm on the list'ning ear of night Lyrics: 1 Calm on the list'ning ear of night Come heav'n's melodious strains, Where wild Judea stretches forth Her silver-mantled plains; Celestial choirs from courts above Shed sacred glories there; And angels, with their sparkling lyres, Make music on the air. 2 The answ'ring hills of Palestine Send back the glad reply, And greet from all their holy heights The Day-spring from on high: O'er the blue depths of Galilee There comes a holier calm, And Sharon waves in solemn praise Her silent groves of palm. 3 "Glory to God!" the lofty strain The realm of ether fills; How sweeps the song of solemn joy O'er Judah's sacred hills! "Glory to God!" the sounding skies Loud with their anthems ring: "Peace on the earth; good-will to men," From heav'n's eternal King. 4 This day shall Christian tongues be mute, And Christian hearts be cold? O catch the anthem that from heav'n O'er Judah's mountains rolled. When burst upon that list'ning night The high and solemn lay, "Glory to God; on earth be peace:" Salvation comes today!
