Bid thou the blasts of discord cease,
The waves of strife be still.

Lift up our hearts to seek there;
Come down to meet us here.

Send forth thy quick'ning breath,
And wake dead souls to love and praise,
O Vanquisher of death! Languages: English Tune Title: SCHUMANN

He who regards the inmost heart
Will send his grace from heav'n. Languages: English Tune Title: ELIZABETHTOWN

Fill all my soul tonight.

How Christ my life has bought. [Chorus]

In this poor heart of mine! [Chorus]

My wants are treasure,
And pain for him is sweet;

I'll serve another day. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [One more day's work for Jesus]

Our Surest Stay

O'er moor and mountain, field and flow'r,
How sweet to leave a world of care,
And lift to heav'n the voice of pray'r!

When Nature's voice is hush'd in sleep,
Then heavy hearts with grief oppress'd
May find in pray'r the sweetest rest.
3 And when with red'ning blush of morn
The newborn day begins to dawn,
Then upward to the mercy-seat
Let pray'r ascend like incense sweet.
4 When midday's burning heat we feel,
When daily cares our hearts would steal,
O, then to heav'n we look away,
And find in pray'r our surest stay. Languages: English Tune Title: BRADBURY

Children's Praises
Author: Rev. John King Hymnal: Christ in Song #323 (1908) Topics: Hymns for Worship Closing Hymns First Line: When, His salvation bringing Lyrics: 1 When, His salvation bringing,
To Zion Jesus came,
The children all stood singing
"Hosanna" to his name.
Nor did their zeal offend him,
But, as he rode along,
He let them still attend him
And smiled to hear their song.
2 And, since the Lord retaineth
His love for children still,
Tho' now as King he reigneth
On Zion's heav'nly hill,
We'll flock around his banner,
Who sits upon the throne,
And cry aloud, "Hosanna
To David's royal Son."
3 For, should we fail proclaiming
Our great Redeemer's praise,
These stones, our silence shaming,
Would their hosannas raise.
But shall we only render
The tribute of our words?
Nor, while our hearts are tender,
They too shall be the Lord's.

By the lessons of this day:
May our souls by thee be fed,
And to living fountains led;
In a world of care and sin,
Keep us ever pure within.
