God, Who Made the Earth and Heaven
Author: Reginald Heber; Frederick Lucian Hosmer Hymnal: The Worshipbook #404 (1972) Topics: Civil Year Labor Day Lyrics: 1 God, who made the earth and heaven,
Darkness and light,
Who the day for toil has given,
For rest the night,
May your loving care defend us,
Slumber sweet your mercy send us;
Holy dreams and hopes attend us,
This livelong night.
2 When the constant sun returning
Unseals our eyes,
May we, reborn like the morning,
To labor rise;
Gird us for the tasks that call us,
Let not ease and self enthrall us.
Make us strong whate'er befall us,
O God most wise!
Amen. Scripture: Acts 14:15

All their Maker's praise declare;
Wake, my soul, awake and sing:
Now thy grateful praises bring.
2 See the glorious orb of day
Breaking through the clouds his way;
Moon and stars with silvery light
Praise him through the silent night.
3 See how he hath everywhere
Made this earth so rich and fair;
Hill and vale and fruitful land,
All things living, show his hand.
4 Lord, great wonders workest thou!
To thy sway all creatures bow;
Write thou deeply in my heart
What I am, and what thou art.

Lord, Look Upon Our Working Days
Author: Ian M. Fraser Hymnal: The Worshipbook #462 (1972) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Civil Year Labor Day Lyrics: 1 Lord, look upon our working days,
Busied in factory, office, store;
May wordless work your name adore,
The common round spell out your praise?
2 Bent to the lot our crafts assign,
Swayed by deep tides of need and fear,
In loyalties torn, the truth unclear,
How may we build to your design?
3 You are the workman, Lord, not we:
All worlds were made at your command.
Christ, their sustainer, bared his hand,
Rescued them from futility.
4 Our part to do what he'll commit,
Who strides the world, and calls men all
Partners in pain and carnival,
To grasp the hope he won for it.
5 Cover our faults with pardon full,
Shield those who suffer when we shirk;
Take what is worthy in our work,
Give it due portion in your rule.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 90:17 Tune Title: AUDREY
Lord, Look Upon Our Working Days

Who wondrous things has done,
In whom his world rejoices;

Has blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love,
And still is ours today.
2 O may this bounteous God
Through all our life be near us,
With ever-joyful hearts
And blessed peace to cheer us;
And keep us in his grace,
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills
In this world and the next.

The Son, and him who reigns
With them in highest heaven,
The one eternal God,
Whom earth and heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.

Hymnal: The Worshipbook #594 (1972) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Civil Year Memorial Day Lyrics: 1 The man who once has found abode,
Within the secret place of God
Shall with almighty God abide
And in his shadow safely hide.

"He is my refuge and my stay;
To him for safety I will flee,
My God, in him my trust shall be.
3 His outspread pinions shall you hide;
Beneath his wings shall you abide;
His faithfulness assured and true
Shall be a shield protecting you.
4 No nightly terrors shall alarm;
No deadly shaft by day shall harm,
Nor pestilence that walks by night,
Nor plagues that waste in noonday light.
6 Because your trust is God alone,
Your dwelling place the Highest One,
No evil shall upon you come,
Nor plague approach your guarded home.

Author: Maltbie D. Babcock Hymnal: The Worshipbook #602 (1972) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: Civil Year Thanksgiving Day Lyrics: 1 This is my Father's world,
And to my listening ears
All nature sings, and round me rings
The music of the spheres.

I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas;
His hand the wonders wrought.
2 This is my Father's world:
The birds their carols raise,
The morning light, the lily white,
Declare their maker's praise.
This is my Father's world:
He shines in all that's fair;
In the rustling grass I hear him pass,
He speaks to me everywhere.
3 This is my Father's world:
Oh, let me ne'er forget
That though the wrong seems oft so strong,
God is the ruler yet.
This is my Father's world:
The battle is not done;
Jesus who died shall be satisfied,
And earth and heaven be one.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 24 Tune Title: TERRA BEATA
This Is My Father's World
