The Saviour

Hymnal: LH1855 #18 (1855) First Line: How precious is the story Lyrics: 1 How precious is the story Who left the realms of glory, And came to dwell on earth: Of our Redeemer's birth, He saw our sad condition, Our guilt, and sin, and shame; To save us from perdition The blessed Jesus came. 2 He came to earth from heaven, To weep, and bleed, and die, That we might be forgiven, And raised to God on high. His kindness and compassion To children then were shown; The heirs of his salvation, He claim'd them for his own. 3 O, may I love this Saviour, So good, so kind, so mild; And may I find his favor, A young, though sinful child! And in his blissful heaven May I at last appear, With all my sins forgiven, To know and praise him there! Languages: English Tune Title: THE SAVIOUR

I want to be an angel

Hymnal: LH1855 #19a (1855) Lyrics: 1 I want to be an angel, And with the angels stand, A crown upon my forehead, A harp within my hand; There, right before my Saviour, So glorious and so bright, I'd wake the sweetest music, And praise him day and night. 2 I never should be weary, Nor ever shed a tear, Nor ever know a sorrow, Nor ever feel a fear; But blessed, pure, and holy, I'd dwell in Jesus' sight, And with ten thousand thousand I'd praise him day and night. 3 I know I'm weak and sinful, But Jesus will forgive, For many little children Have gone to heaven to live; Dear Saviour, when I languish, And lay me down to die, O send a shining angel To bear me to the sky. 4 O! there I'll be an angel, And with the angels stand, A crown upon my forehead, A harp within my hand: And therefore my Saviour, So glorious and so bright, I'll join the heavenly music, And praise him day and night.

Little things

Hymnal: LH1855 #20a (1855) First Line: Her dimpled hands were clasp'd in prayer Lyrics: 1 Her dimpled hands were clasp'd in prayer, Her blue eyes raised to heaven, A holy light was on her brow, She seem'd almost an angel now, Yet pray'd to be forgiven. 2 She pray'd, that young and gentle child We deem'd so free from sin, And meekly sought a holy heart, That she might act the Christian's part, A purity within. 3 She pray'd, and tears like rain-drops fell, Her bosom swell'd with grief: Her childish sins she there confess'd. Then laid her head on Jesus' breast, And found a sweet relief. Languages: English Tune Title: THE LITTLE PENITENT

Learn to pray

Hymnal: LH1855 #20b (1855) First Line: Wake, little child, the morn is gay Lyrics: 1 Wake, little child, the morn is gay, The air is fresh and cool; But pause awhile, and kneel to pray, Before you go to merry play, Before you go to school. 2 Kneel down and speak the holy words: God loves your simple prayer Above the sweet songs of the birds, The bleating of the gentle herds, The flowers that scent the air. 3 And when the quiet evenings come, And dew-drops wet the sod, When bats and owls begin to roam, And flocks and herds are driven home, Then kneel in prayer to God. 4 Because you need him, day and night, To shield you with his arm; To help you always to do right, To feed your soul and give it light, And keep you safe from harm.
