O Thou whose feet have climbed life's hill

Author: L. F. Benson Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #634 (1920) Topics: Youth and School Life Lyrics: 1 O Thou whose feet have climbed life's hill, And trod the path of youth, Our Saviour and our Brother still, Now lead us into truth. 2 The call is Thine; be Thou the Way, And give us men, to guide; Let wisdom broaden with the day, Let human faith abide. 3 Who learn of Thee the truth shall find, Who follow, gain the goal; With reverence crown the earnest mind, And speak within the soul. 4 Awake the purpose high which strives, And, falling, stands again; Confirm the will of eager lives To quit themselves like men: 5 Thy life the bond of fellowship, Thy love the law that rules, Thy Name, proclaimed by every lip, The Master of our schools.

O Lord, the Holy Innocents

Author: C. F. Alexander Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #607 (1920) Topics: Youth and School Life; Youth and School Life Lyrics: 1 O Lord, the Holy Innocents Laid down for Thee their infant life, And martyrs brave and patient saints Have stood for Thee in fire and strife. 2 We wear the cross they wore of old, Our lips have learned like vows to make; We need not die; we cannot fight; What may we do for Jesus' sake? 3 O day by day each Christian child Has much to do, without, within; A death to die for Jesus' sake, A weary war to wage with sin. 4 When deep within our swelling hearts, The thoughts of pride and anger rise, When bitter words are on our tongues, And tears of passion in our eyes; 5 Then we may stay the angry blow, Then we may check the hasty word, Give gentle answers back again, And fight a battle for our Lord. 6 With smiles of peace and looks of love, Light in our dwellings we may make, Bid kind good-humor brighten there, And do all still for Jesus' sake. 7 There's not a child so weak and small But has his little cross to take, His little work of love and praise, That he may do for Jesus' sake.

All that's good, and great, and

Father in heav'n, Who lovest all

Author: R. Kipling Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #638 (1920) Topics: Youth and School Life Lyrics: [Land of our birth, we pledge to Thee Our love and toil in the years to be, When we are grown and take our place As men and women with our race.] 1. Father in heav'n, Who lovest all, O help Thy children when they call; That they may build from age to age An undefiled heritage. 2 Teach us to bear the yoke in youth, With steadfastness and careful truth; That, in our time, Thy grace may give The truth whereby the nations live. 3 Teach us to rule ourselves alway, Controlled and cleanly night and day; That we may bring, if need arise, No maimed or worthless sacrifice. 4 Teach us to look in all our ends On Thee for Judge and not our friends; That we, with Thee, may walk uncowed By fear or favour of the crowd. 5 Teach us the strength that cannot seek, By deed or thought, to hurt the weak; That, under Thee, we may possess Man's strength to comfort man's distress. 6 Teach us delight in simple things And mirth that has no bitter springs; Forgiveness free of evil done, And love to all men 'neath the sun. [Land of our birth, our faith, our pride, For whose dear sake our fathers died; O Motherland, we pledge to thee Head, heart, and hand through the years to be.] Languages: English Tune Title: LAND OF OUR BIRTH

Little drops of water

Author: J. A. Carney Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #645 (1920) Topics: Youth and School Life Younger Children Lyrics: 1 Little drops of water, Little grains of sand, Make the mighty ocean, And the beauteous land. 2 And the little moments, Humble though they be, Make the mighty ages Of eternity. 3 Little deeds of kindness, Little words of love, Make our earth an Eden, Like the heaven above. 4 So our little errors Lead the soul away From the paths of virtue Into sin to stray. 5 Little seeds of mercy, Sown by youthful hands, Grow to bless the nations Far in heathen lands. 6 Little ones in glory Swell the angels' song: Make us meet, dear Saviour, For their holy throng.
