Thou Dost Love Us Ever

Author: James M. Gray Hymnal: The Voice of Thanksgiving No. 3 #47 (1921) First Line: Loving Father, Lord of all Lyrics: 1 Loving Father, Lord of all, Thou dost hear us when we call, And dost help us when we fall, Thou dost love us ever. Lead us into what is best, Keep us in Thy favor blest, Till we reach Thy heav’nly rest, And are with Thee forever. 2 Saviour, Thou for us didst die, Thou dost plead for us on high, Thou dost hear our faintest sigh, Thou dost love us ever. From all condemnation free, Draw us that we follow Thee, Till at last Thy face we see, And are with Thee ever. 3 Comforter and source of light, Giving morning for our night, Thou didst make our hearts contrite, Thou dost love us ever. Teach us, Spirit, how to pray, Cheer us ever on our way, Sanctify us day by day, Yea, be with us ever. Topics: Christ Life and Ministry; Praise, General Tune Title: [Loving Father, Lord of all]

James M. Gray

1851 - 1935 Author of "Thou Dost Love Us Ever" in The Voice of Thanksgiving No. 3 Born: May 11, 1851, New York City. Died: September 21, 1935, Passavant Hospital, Chicago, Illinois. Buried: Woodlawn Cemetery, New York City. Gray accepted Christ at age 22. He was educated at Bates College, Lewiston, Maine (Doctor of Divinity), and the University of Des Moines, Iowa (Doctor of Laws). In 1879 he became Rector of the First Reformed Episcopal Church in Boston, Massachusetts, where he served 14 years. He then became dean (1904-25) and president (1925-34) of the Moody Bible Institute, Chicago, Illinois, and directed publication of four editions (1921-28) of the Voice of Thanksgiving, official hymnal of the Institute. A conservative theologian, Gray was one of seven editors of the popular Scofield Reference Bible. He was a fine scholar and excellent Bible teacher, but his interests went beyond mere academics. He promoted the Sunday School, and took an interest in civic affairs and patriotic causes. He backed efforts at social betterment, supported Prohibition, and wrote about 20 books --www.hymntime.com/tch/
