On this day, the first of days

Author: Henry W. Baker Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 83 hymnals Matching Instances: 21 Lyrics: On this day, the first of days, God the Father's Name we praise: Who, creation's Lord and Spring, Did the world from darkness bring. On this day the Eternal Son Over death his triumph won; On this day the Spirit came With his gifts of living flame. O that fervent love today May in every heart have sway, Teaching us to praise aright God, the Source of life and light. Father, who didst fashion me Image of thyself to be, Fill me with thy love divine, Let my every thought be thine. Holy Jesus, may I be Dead and buried here with thee; And, by love inflamed, arise Unto thee a sacrifice. Thou, who dost all gifts impart, Shine, blest Spirit, in my heart; Best of gifts thyself bestow; Make me burn thy love to know. God, the blessed Three in One, Dwell within my heart alone; Thou dost give thyself to me, May I give myself to thee. Amen.

To Thy sway all creatures bow. Write Thou deeply in my heart What I am, and what Thou art! Amen.

Only name that’s given Under all the mighty heaven, Whereby man, to sin enslaved, Bursts his fetters, and is saved. 6. Jesus! Name of wondrous love, Human name of God above!

Hail! my Portion, Lord, art Thou! Here too in my heart, I pray,-- O prepare Thyself a way. 5 And when Thou dost come again, As the glorious King to reign, I with joy may see Thy face, Freely ransomed by Thy grace.
