Lead, kindly light, amid the encircling gloom
Author: John Henry Newman, 1801-1890 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #106a (2004) Meter: 10.4.10.4.10.10 Topics: God Through the Years His Guidance Lyrics: 1 Lead, kindly light, amid the encircling gloom,
O lead me on;
the night is dark, and I am far from home;
O lead me on.
Keep firm my feet; I do not ask to see
the distant scene; one step enough for me.
2 I was not ever thus, nor prayed that You
should lead me on;
I loved to choose, and see my path; but now
O lead me on.
I loved the broader way, and, spite of fears,
pride ruled my will: remember not past years.

Look and learn from the birds of the air

Look and learn from the birds of the air
Though troubles assail and dangers affright
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #128 (2004) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: God Through the Years His Providence Lyrics: 1 Though troubles assail and dangers affright,
though friends should all fail and foes all unite,
yet one thing secures us, however we're tried:
The Scripture assures us, 'The Lord will provide.'
2 The birds without barn or storehouse are fed;
from them let us learn to trust for our bread:
His saints what is fitting shall not be denied;
we know it is written: 'The Lord will provide.'
3 His call we obey like Abraham of old,
not knowing our way, but faith makes us bold;
for though we are strangers we have a good guide,
and trust, in all dangers, 'The Lord will provide.'
4 When Satan assails and hinders our path
and fills us with fears, we triumph by faith;
he cannot take from us, though often has tried,
this heart-cheering promise, 'The Lord will provide.'
5 No strength of our own or goodness we claim;
yet since we have known the Saviour’s great name,
in this our strong tower for safety we hide,
the Lord is our power, 'The Lord will provide.'
6 When life sinks apace, and death is in view,
The word of His grace shall carry us through
not fearing or doubting, with Christ on our side,
we hope to die shouting: 'The Lord will provide.' Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 104TH

Lord, I would own Your tender care
Author: Jane Taylor, 1783-1824 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #94 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: God Through the Years His Faithfulness Lyrics: 1 Lord, I would own Your tender care
and all Your love I see;
the food I eat, the clothes I wear,
are all Your gift to me.
2 Lord, You preserve my life from death
and dangers every hour;
I cannot draw another breath
unless You give me power.
3 Kind angels guard me every night
as round my bed they stay;
nor am I absent from Your sight
in darkness or by day.
4 My health and friends and parents dear
to me by God are given;
I have not any blessing here
but what is sent from heaven.
5 Such goodness, Lord, and constant care
a child cannot repay;
but may it be my daily prayer
to love You and obey. Languages: English Tune Title: NEWBURY

A little child may know
Author: Jane Elizabeth Leeson, 1809-1881 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #109 (2004) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: God Through the Years His Providence Lyrics: 1 A little child may know
our Father's name of Love;
'tis written on the earth below,
and on the sky above.
2 Around me when I look,
His handiwork I see;
this world is like a picture-book
to teach His name to me.
3 The thousand little flowers
within our garden found,
the rainbow and the soft spring showers,
and every pleasant sound;
4 The birds that sweetly sing,
the moon that shines by night,
with every tiny living thing
rejoicing in the light;
5 And every star above,
set in the deep blue sky,
all tell me that our God is love,
and tell me He is nigh. Languages: English Tune Title: SANDYS

lift up your hearts, your voices raise;
to us His gracious gifts belong,
to Him our songs of love and praise.
2 For life and love, for rest and food,
for daily help and nightly care,
sing to the Lord, for He is good,
and praise His name, for it is fair.
3 For strength to those who on Him wait
His truth to prove, His will to do,
O praise our God, for He is great,
trust in His name, for it is true.
4 For joys untold, that from above
cheer those who love His sweet employ,
sing to our God, for He is love,
exalt His name, for it is joy.
5 For He is Lord of heaven and earth,
whom angels serve and saints adore,
the Father, Son, and Spirit blest,
to whom be praise for evermore. Amen.
