Go, seek thy great Creator, Learn early to be wise: Go, place upon his altar A morning sacrifice. Languages: English Tune Title: BUY THE TRUTH

Good attendance

Hymnal: LH1855 #73a (1855) First Line: Know ye the place where we gather each day Lyrics: 1 Know ye the place where we gather each day, Early at morn, early at morn? Go we abroad in the wildwood to play, When we are gone, when we are gone? No, 'tis not there that we gather each day, Leaving our homes, all our friends and our play. But 'tis to school that we hie us away, When we are gone, when we are gone? 2 Come to our school through the white winter snows, Cold is the air, cold is the air? Come when the loud wind a wild tempest blows, We shall be there, we shall be there! Come at the close of a bright summer day, Come when the sun sheds his last ling'ring ray, Come to our school, you'll not find us away, We shall be there, we shall be there!

For I look forward to that glorious day When sin and sorrow shall vanish away; My heart doth leap, while I hear Jesus say, There, there is rest! there, there is rest! 2 Here are afflictions and trials severe, Here is no rest, here is no rest! Here I must part with the friends I hold dear, Yet I am blest, yet I am blest!

A soft answer

Hymnal: LH1855 #76 (1855) First Line: O speak softly to thy comrade Lyrics: 1 O speak softly to thy comrade, When the waves of passion madly Roll forth in angry word, Or prompt the vengeful blow; Do thou good for evil, render, Else thou shalt remember sadly, That heaven the strife will see; Thy Father all will know, His law may not be broken, His word is clearly spoken: Whoso hateth thee, befriend him, As God befriendeth thee. 2 Cast thou oil upon the waters, Let thy voice like David's music Drive forth the evil thought, Thy friend doth cherish now, When is calm'd the raging tumult, O thy voice he'll not refuse it, So see thou harm him not, Nor scornful bend the brow: Thy Father hath commanded, Thy Father doth reward thee, And thou gainest now a brother, Who else were lost to thee.

Angry words

Hymnal: LH1855 #77a (1855) First Line: Angry words are lightly spoken Lyrics: 1 Angry words are lightly spoken In a rash and thoughtless hour; Brightest links of life are broken By their deep insidious power. Hearts inspired by warmest feeling, Ne'er before by anger stirr'd, Oft are rent, past human healing, By a single angry word. 2 Poison-drops of care and sorrow, Bitter poison-drops are they, Weaving for the coming morrow Saddest memories of to-day. Angry words! O let them never From the tongue unbridled slip; May the heart's best impulse ever Check them, ere they soil the lip! 3 Love is much too poor and holy, Friendship is too sacred far, For a moment's reckless folly, Thus to desolate and mar. Angry words are lightly spoken, Bitt'rest thoughts are rashly stirr'd; Brightest links of life are broken By a single angry word. Languages: English

Mutual love

Hymnal: LH1855 #77b (1855) First Line: "Little children, love each other" Lyrics: 1 "Little children, love each other;" 'Tis the blessed Saviour's rule: Every little one is brother To his play-fellows at school. We're all children of one Father, That great God who reigns above; Shall we quarrel? No: much rather Would we dwell like him--in love. 2 He has placed us here together, That we may be good and kind, He is ever watching whether We are one in heart and mind, Who is stronger than the other? Let him be the weak one's friend; Who's more playthings than his brother, He should like to give or lend. 3 All good children love each other, Keeping thus the Saviour's rule; Each one proves himself a brother To his dear playmates at school. All they have they share with others, With kind looks and gentle words: Thus they live like happy brothers, And are known to be the Lord's. Languages: English
