He Whose heart is kind beyond all measure Gives unto each day what He deems best— Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure, Mingling toil with peace and rest. 2 Every day, the Lord Himself is near me With a special mercy for each hour; All my cares He fain would bear, and cheer me, He Whose Name is Counselor and Power; The protection of His child and treasure Is a charge that on Himself He laid; “As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,” This the pledge to me He made. 3 Help me then in every tribulation So to trust Thy promises, O Lord, That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation Offered me within Thy holy Word. Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting, Ever to take, as from a father’s hand, One by one, the days, the moments fleeting, Till I reach the promised land.

O for a Faith

Author: William H.

God, Who Stretched the Spangled Heavens

Author: Catherine Cameron (1927- Hymnal: SDAH1985 #536 (1985) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 God, who stretched the spangled heavens Infinite in time and place, Flung the suns in burning radiance Through the silent fields of space; We, Your children in Your likeness, Share inventive powers with You; Great Creator, still creating, Show us what we yet may do. 2 We have ventured worlds undreamed of Since the childhood of our race; Knowing the ecstasy of winging Through untraveled realms of space, Probed the secrets of the atom, Yielding unimagined power, Facing us with life’s destruction Or our most triumphant hour. 3 As each far horizon beckons, May it challenge us anew: Children of creative purpose, Serving others, honoring You. May our dreams prove rich with promise; Each endeavor well begun; Great Creator, give us guidance Till our goals and Yours are one.
