Savior, Again to Your Dear Name
Author: John Ellerton, 1826-1893 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 851 hymnals First Line: Savior, again to your dear name we raise Scripture: Psalm 127:2 Lyrics: 1 Savior, again to your dear name we raise
with one accord our parting hymn of praise;
we give you thanks before our worship cease,
and now departing, wait your word of peace.
2 Grant us your peace upon our homeward way;
with you began, with you shall end the day;
guard now the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,
that in this house have called upon your name.
3 Grant us your peace, Lord, through the coming night;
turn all our darkness to your perfect light;
then, while we sleep, our hope and strength renew,
for dark and light are both alike to you.
4 Grant us your peace throughout our earthly life:
comfort in sorrow, courage in the strife;
then, when your voice shall make our conflict cease,
call us, O Lord, to your eternal peace.

Savior, Again to Your Dear Name
Revival Implored
Author: John Newton Appears in 461 hymnals First Line: Saviour, visit thy plantation! Scripture: Psalm 127:1 Lyrics: 1 Saviour, visit thy plantation!
Grant us, Lord, a gracious rain:
All will come to desolation,
Unless thou return again.
2 Keep no longer at a distance,
Shine upon us from on high,
Lest, for want of thine assistance,
Every plant should droop and die.
3 Once, O Lord, thy garden flourished;
Every part looked gay and green;
Then thy word our spirits nourished
Happy seasons we have seen.
4 But a drought has since succeeded,
And a sad decline we see:
Lord, thy help is greatly needed:
Help can only come from thee.
5 Let our mutual love be fervent;
Make us prevalent in prayer;
Let each one esteemed thy servant
Shun the world's bewitching snare.
6 Break the tempter's fatal power,
Turn the stony heart to flesh,
And begin from this good hour
To revive thy work afresh. Topics: Church Missions of; Church Work of Used With Tune: RATHBUN

Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear
Author: John Keble, 1792-1866 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,436 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 127:2 Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear,
it is not night if thou be near:
O may no earth-born cloud arise
to hide thee from thy servant's eyes.
2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep
my weary eyelids gently steep,
be my last thought, how sweet to rest
for ever on my Saviour's breast.
3 Abide with me from morn till eve,
for without thee I cannot live;
abide with me when night is nigh,
for without thee I dare not die.
4 If some poor wandering child of thine
have spurned to-day the voice divine,
now, Lord, the gracious work begin;
let him no more lie down in sin.
5 Watch by the sick; enrich the poor
with blessings from thy boundless store;
be every mourner's sleep to-night,
like infant's slumbers, pure and light.
6 Come near and bless us when we wake,
ere through the world our way we take;
till in the ocean of thy love
we lose ourselves in heaven above. Topics: Evening Used With Tune: BIRLING
Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear
