Blest who with generous pity glows
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #758 (1873) Topics: The Christian Family Widowhood and Orphanage Lyrics: 1 Blest who with generous pity glows,
Who learns to feel another's woes;
Bows to the poor man's wants his ear,
And wipes the helpless orphan's tear:
In every want, in every woe,
Himself thy pity, Lord, shall know.
2 Thy love his life shall guard--thy hand
Give to his lot the chosen land;
Nor leave him, in the dreadful day,
To unrelenting foes a prey.
In sickness thou shalt raise his head,
And make with tenderest care his bed.
Blest who with generous pity glows
Thou God of hope, to thee we bow!
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #759 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Family Widowhood and Orphanage Lyrics: 1 Thou God of hope, to thee we bow!
Thou art our Refuge in distress;
The Husband of the widow, thou
The Father of the fatherless.
2 The poor are thy peculiar care;
To them thy promises are sure:
Thy gifts the poor in spirit share;
Oh! may we always thus be poor!
3 May we thy law of love fulfill,
To bear each other's burdens here;
Endure and do thy righteous will,
And walk in all thy faith and fear.
Thou God of hope, to thee we bow!

Thus far the Lord hath led me on
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #538 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 Thus far the Lord has led me on;
Thus far his power prolongs my days;
And every evening shall make known
Some fresh memorial of his grace.
2 Much of my time has run to waste,
And I, perhaps, am near my home;
But he forgives my follies past,
And gives me strength for days to come.
3 I lay my body down to sleep;
Peace is the pillow for my head;
While well-appointed angels keep
Their watchful stations round my bed.
4 Thus if the night of death should come,
My flesh shall rest beneath the ground,
And wait thy voice to break my tomb,
With sweet salvation in the sound. Tune Title: HEBRON
Thus far the Lord hath led me on
God of the morning, at thy voice
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #539 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 God of the morning, at thy voice
The cheerful sun makes haste to rise,
And like a giant doth rejoice
To run his journey through the skies.
2 O, like the sun may I fulfill
The appointed duties of the day;
With ready mind and active will,
March on, and keep my heavenly way.
3 Lord, thy commands are clean and pure,
Enlightening our beclouded eyes;
Thy threatenings just, thy promise sure;
Thy gospel makes the simple wise.
4 Give me thy counsels for my guide,
And then receive me to thy bliss;
All my desires and hopes beside
Are faint and cold compared with this. Tune Title: HEBRON
God of the morning, at thy voice
A Child of the King
Author: Hattie E Buell Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #542 (1999) Meter: 10.11.11.11 with refrain Topics: The Christian Family/Children/Youth First Line: My Father is rich in houses and lands Refrain First Line: I'm a child of the King Lyrics: 1 My Father is rich in houses and land,
He holdeth the wealth of the world in His hand!
Of rubies and diamonds, of silver and gold,
His coffers are full, He has riches untold.
Refrain:
I’m a child of the King,
A child of the King;
With Jesus my Savior,
I’m a child of the King.
2 My Father’s own Son, the Savior of men,
Once wandered on earth as the poorest of them;
But now He is pleading our pardon on high,
That we may be His when He comes by and by. [Refrain]
3 I once was an outcast stranger on earth,
A sinner by choice and an alien by birth;
But I’ve been adopted, my name’s written down,
An heir to a mansion, a robe and a crown. [Refrain]
4 A tent or a cottage, why should I care?
They’re building a palace for me over there;
Tho' exiled from home, yet still I may sing:
All glory to God, I’m a child of the King. [Refrain]

How sweet the light of Sabbath eve!
Author: James Edmeston Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #544 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 How sweet the light of Sabbath eve!
How soft the sunbeams lingering there!
For these blest hours the world I leave,
Wafted on wings of faith and prayer.
2 Season of rest! the tranquil soul
Feels the sweet calm, and melts in love;
And while these sacred moments roll,
Faith sees a smiling heaven above.
3 Nor will our days of toil be long;
Our pilgrimage will soon be trod;
And we shall join the ceaseless song,
The endless Sabbath of our God. Tune Title: HURSLEY
How sweet the light of Sabbath eve!
Once more, my soul, the rising day
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #548 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 Once more, my soul, the rising day
Salutes thy waking eye;
Once more, my voice, thy tribute pay
To Him who rules on high.
2 Night unto night his name repeats,
The day renews the sound,
Wide as the heavens on which he sits
To turn the seasons round.
3 'Tis he supports my mortal frame;
My tongue shall speak his praise:
My sins might rouse his wrath to flame,
But yet his wrath delays.
4 O God, let all my hours be thine,
While I enjoy the light;
Then shall my sun in smiles decline,
And bring a peaceful night. Tune Title: MEAR
Once more, my soul, the rising day
The sun rolls down the distant west
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #551 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 The sun rolls down the distant west,
Soft twilight steals abroad
To welcome in the day of rest,
The Sabbath of our Lord.
2 This holy day let us begin
With songs of praise to God,
Who pardons all our guilt and sin,
Through Jesus' precious blood.
3 Now in this tranquil hour we lay
All worldly cares aside,
And hallow God's most holy day,
Though friends or foes may chide.
4 'Tis not to seek the world's applause
That we from labor rest;
We strive to keep God's holy laws,
And he these moments blessed. Tune Title: WARWICK
The sun rolls down the distant west
