Father, Who on man dost shower
Author: Percy Dearmer Hymnal: The Hymnal #506 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.7 Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
Father, who on man dost shower
Gifts of plenty from thy dower,
To thy people give the power
All thy gifts to use aright.
Give pure happiness in leisure,
Temperance in every pleasure,
Holy use of earthly treasure,
Bodies clear and spirits bright.
Lift from this and every nation
All that brings us degradation;
Quell the forces of temptation;
Put thine enemies to flight.
461
Be with us, thy strength supplying,
That with energy undying,
Every foe of man defying,
We may rally to the fight.
Thou who art our Captain, ever
Lead us on to great endeavour;
May thy Church the world deliver,
Give us wisdom, courage, might.
Father, who hast sought and found us,
Son of God, whose love has bound us,
Holy Ghost, within us, round us,
Hear us, Godhead infinite.
Amen.

Saviour, like a shepherd lead us
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Hymnal #355 (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
Savior, like a shepherd lead us,
Much we need thy tender care;
In thy pleasant pastures feed us;
For our use thy folds prepare:
Blessèd Jesus!
Thou hast bought us, thine we are.
Thou hast promised to receive us,
Poor and sinful though we be;
Thou hast mercy to relieve us,
Grace to cleanse, and power to free:
Blessèd Jesus!
Let us early turn to thee.
Early let us seek thy favour,
Early let us learn thy will;
Do thou, Lord, our only Savior,
With thy love our bosoms fill:
Blessèd Jesus!
Thou hast loved us: love us still.
Amen.

Savior, again to Thy dear Name we raise
Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: The Hymnal #50 (1916) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
Savior, again to thy dear Name we raise
With one accord our parting hymn of praise;
Guard thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,
That in this house have called upon thy Name.
Grant us thy peace, Lord, through the coming night;
Turn thou for us its darkness into light;
From harm and danger keep thy children free,
For dark and light are both alike to thee.
Grant us thy peace throughout our earthly life;
Peace to thy Church from error and from strife;
Peace to our land, the fruit of truth and love;
Peace in each heart, thy Spirit from above:
Thy peace in life, the balm of every pain;
Thy peace in death, the hope to rise again;
Then, when thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,
Call us, O Lord, to thine eternal peace.
Amen.

O Word of God incarnate
Author: W. Walsham How Hymnal: The Hymnal #58 (1916) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
O Word of God incarnate,
O Wisdom from on high,
O Truth, unchanged, unchanging,
O Light of our dark sky,
We praise thee for the radiance
That from the hallowed page,
A lantern to our footsteps,
Shines on from age to age.
The Church from her dear Master
Received the gift divine,
And still that light she lifteth
O'er all the earth to shine.
It is the golden casket
Where gems of truth are stored,
It is the heaven-drawn picture
Of Christ, the living Word.
It floateth like a banner
Before God's host unfurled;
It shineth like a beacon
Above the darkling world;
It is the chart and compass
That o'er life's surging sea,
'Mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
Still guides, O Christ, to thee.
O make thy Church, dear Savior,
A lamp of purest gold,
To bear before the nations
Thy true light as of old;
O teach thy wandering pilgrims
By this their path to trace
Till, clouds and darkness ended,
They see thee face to face.
Amen.

O Word of God incarnate
Lord, Thy word abideth
Author: Henry W. Baker Hymnal: The Hymnal #59 (1916) Meter: 6.6.6.6 Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
Lord, thy word abideth,
And our footsteps guideth;
Who its truth believeth
Light and joy receiveth.
When our foes are near us,
Then thy word doth cheer us,
Word of consolation,
Message of salvation.
When the storms are o'er us,
And dark clouds before us,
Then its light directeth,
And our way protecteth.
Who can tell the pleasure,
Who recount the treasure,
By thy word imparted
To the simple-hearted?
Word of mercy, giving
Succor to the living;
Word of life, supplying
Comfort to the dying!
O that we discerning
Its most holy learning,
Lord, may love and fear thee!
Evermore be near thee!
Amen.

The Son of God goes forth to war
Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: The Hymnal #85a (1916) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
The Son of God goes forth to war,
A kingly crown to gain;
His blood-red banner streams afar:
Who follows in his train?
Who best can drink his cup of woe,
Triumphant over pain;
Who patient bears his cross below,
He follows in his train.
The martyr first, whose eagle eye
Could pierce beyond the grave;
Who saw his Master in the sky,
And called on him to save.
Like him, with pardon on his tongue,
In midst of mortal pain,
He prayed for them that did the wrong:
Who follows in his train?
A glorious band, the chosen few,
On whom the Spirit came:
Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew,
And mocked the cross and flame.
They met the tyrant's brandished steel,
The lion's gory mane;
They bowed their necks the death to feel:
Who follows in their train?
A noble army, men and boys,
The matron and the maid,
Around the Savior's throne rejoice,
In robes of light arrayed.
They climbed the steep ascent of heaven
Through peril, toil, and pain:
O God, to us may grace be given
To follow in their train.
Amen.

O Lord, the Holy Innocents
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: The Hymnal #87 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
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.
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?
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.
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;
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.
With smiles of peace and looks of love,
Light in our dwellings we may make,
Bid kind good-humour brighten there,
And do all still for Jesus' sake.
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.

Breast the wave, Christian
Author: Joseph Stammers Hymnal: The Hymnal #112 (1916) Meter: 5.5.5.5.6.5.6.5 Topics: Sunday Schools General Use Lyrics:
Breast the wave, Christian,
When it is strongest;
Watch for day, Christian,
When the night's longest;
Onward and onward still
Be thine endeavour;
The rest that remaineth
Will be for ever.
Fight the fight, Christian,
Jesus is o'er thee;
Run the race, Christian,
Heaven is before thee;
He who hath promised
Faltereth never;
The love of eternity
Flows on for ever.
Lift thine eye, Christian,
Just as it closeth;
Raise thy heart, Christian,
Ere it reposeth;
Thee from the love of Christ
Nothing shall sever;
And, when thy work is done,
Praise him for ever.
