Father, Who the Light This Day
Author: Julia A. Elliott Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 16 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1:3 Lyrics: 1 Father, who the light this day
Out of darkness didst create,
Shine upon us now, we pray,
While within Thy courts we wait.
Wean us from the works of night,
Make us children of the light.
2 Savior, who this day didst break
The dark prison of the tomb,
Bid our slumb'ring souls awake,
Shine thro' all their sin and gloom;
Let us, from our bonds set free,
Rise from sin and live to Thee.
3 Blessed Spirit, Comforter,
Sent this day from Christ on high,
Lord, on us Thy gifts confer,
Cleanse, illumine, sanctify.
All Thy fulness shed abroad;
Lead us to the truth of God.

Faith
Author: John Newton Appears in 67 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 5:24 First Line: By faith in Christ I walk with God Lyrics: 1 By faith in Christ I walk with God,
With heaven, my journey's end, in view;
Supported by his staff and rod,
My road is safe and pleasant too.
2 Though snares and dangers throng my path,
And earth and hell my course withstand,
I triumph over all by faith,
Guarded by his almighty hand.
3 The wilderness affords no food,
But God for my support prepares,
Provides me every needful good,
And frees my soul from wants and cares.
4 With him sweet converse I maintain;
Great as he is, I dare be free;
I tell him all my grief and pain,
And he reveals his love to me. Topics: Christians Graces; Communion of Saints At Lord's Table Used With Tune: DUKE STREET

Family prayer
Appears in 100 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 18:19 First Line: Father of all, thy care we bless Lyrics: 1 Father of all, thy care we bless,
Which crowns our families with peace,
From thee they spring, and, by thy hand
There were and still shall be sustain'd.
2 To God, most worthy to be prais'd,
Be our domestic altars rais'd;
Who, Lord of heav'n, scorns not to dwell
With saints in their obscurest cell.
3 To thee may each united house,
Morning and night, present its vows;
Our servants there, and rising race,
Be taught thy precepts, and thy grace.
4 O may each future age proclaim
The honors of thy glorious name;
While pleas'd and thankful, we remove
To join the family above.

Father of love! from age to age
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 22:14 Lyrics: 1 Father of love! from age to age
The wonders of thy grace,
The heart and lips of saints engage,
In cheerful songs, to praise.
2 Creatures in various trains to thee
Raise the dependant eye;
Thy stores of goodness rich and free,
Their various wants supply.
3 But O! the treasures of thy love,
To man's apostate race,
Are boundless mysteries, far above
Both man's and angel's praise.
4 Jesus! in whom a fulness dwells,
Thro' endless years the same,
To every hungry soul reveals
The glories of his name.
5 Thousands in this dark world below,
His faithfulness attest;
In worlds above ten thousand know,
That humble souls are blest.
Father of love! from age to age
Far from the world, O Lord, I flee
Author: Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 268 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 24:63 Lyrics: 1 Far from the world, O Lord, I flee,
From strife and tumult far;
From scenes where Satan wages still
His most successful war.
2 The calm retreat, the silent shade,
With prayer and praise agree;
And seem by thy sweet bounty made
For those who follow thee.
3 There, if thy Spirit touch the soul,
And grace her mean abode,
Oh, with what peace, and joy, and love,
She communes with her God!
4 Author and guardian of my life,
Sweet source of light divine,
And all harmonious names in one,
My Saviour, thou art mine! Topics: The Christian Family Private Devotion; Retirement and Meditation
