Father Supreme, by Whom We Live

Author: Edward H. Dewart Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1444 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Father supreme, by whom we live, Thou who art God alone, Our songs of grateful praise receive, And make our hearts Thy throne. 2. Creation vast reveals Thy name; The earth, the heavens above, With one unceasing voice proclaim Thy wisdom, power, and love. 3. We bless Thee for Thy works, all bright With tokens of Thy skill; But more for reason’s sacred light, By which we read Thy will. 4. For not on brightest orbs, which roll Through space at Thy decree, Hast thou bestowed the thinking soul, To know and worship Thee. 5. May every science, every truth, Our eager minds explore, Lead us, alike in age and youth, Thy wisdom to adore. 6. May those who teach, and those who learn, Walk in the narrow road; In every sphere of thought discern An ever-present God. Languages: English Tune Title: INVITATION (Hastings)

'Tis Thine Alone, Almighty Name

Author: Edwin F. Hatfield Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6935 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. ’Tis Thine alone, almighty name, To raise the dead to life, The lost inebriate to reclaim From passion’s fearful strife. 2. What ruin hath intemperance wrought How widely roll its waves! How many myriads hath it brought To fill dishonored graves! 3. And see, O Lord, what numbers still Are maddened by the bowl, Led captive at the tyrant’s will In bondage, heart and soul. 4. Stretch forth Thy hand, O God, our king And break the galling chain; Deliverance to the captive bring, And end the usurper’s reign. 5. The cause of temperance is Thine own; Our plans and efforts bless; We trust, O Lord, in Thee alone To crown them with success. Languages: English Tune Title: INVITATION (Hastings)

See, From On High, A Light Divine

Author: James Cox Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12134 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 See, from on high, a light divine On Jesus’ head descend; And hear the sacred voice from Heav’n, That bids us all attend: 2 "This is My well belovèd Son," Proclaimed the voice divine: "Hear Him," His heavenly Father said, "For all His words are Mine." 3 His mission thus confirmed from Heaven, The great Messiah came, And heav’nly wisdom taught to man, In God the Father’s name. 4 The path of heav’nly peace He showed, That leads to bliss on high, Where all His faithful followers here Shall live, no more to die. 5 O may we then, who own Him Lord, And His loved name profess, By all our words and actions prove That we His mind possess.
