Dear Lord, and Father of Mankind (Dear God, Embracing Humankind)
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 502 hymnals First Line: Dear Lord, and Father of mankind Lyrics: 1 Dear Lord, and Father of mankind*,
forgive our foolish ways!
Reclothe us in our rightful mind,
in purer lives thy service find,
in deeper reverence, praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard,
beside the Syrian sea,
the gracious calling of the Lord,
let us, like them, without a word,
rise up and follow thee.
3 O sabbath rest by Galilee!
O calm of hills above,
where Jesus knelt to share with thee
the silence of eternity,
interpreted by love!
4 Drop thy still dews of quietness,
till all our strivings cease;
take from our souls the strain and stress,
and let our ordered lives confess
the beauty of thy peace.
5 Breathe through the heats of our desire
thy coolness and thy balm;
let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still, small voice of calm.

O Thou Whose Gracious Presence Blest
Author: Louis F. Benson Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O Thou whose gracious presence blest
The home at Bethany,
This shelter from the world’s unrest,
This home made ready for its Guest,
We dedicate to Thee.
2. When Thou didst pass the temple gate,
To pray beneath its dome,
It was Thy Father’s house, more great
Because by love made consecrate;
It was Thine only home.
3. We build an altar here, and pray
That Thou wilt show Thy face,
Dear Lord, if Thou wilt come to stay,
This home we consecrate today
Will be a holy place. Used With Tune: REST (Maker)
