Dear Father, Lord of humankind
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #451 (1997) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Dear Father, Lord of humankind,
forgive our foolish ways;
reclothe us in our rightful mind;
in purer lives thy service find,
in deeper reverence, praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard,
beside the Syrian sea,
the gracious calling of the Lord,
let us, like them, without a word
rise up and follow thee.
3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee,
O calm of hills above,
where Jesus knelt to share with thee
the silence of eternity,
interpreted by love.
4 With that deep hush subduing all
our words and works that drown
the tender whisper of thy call,
as noiseless let thy blessing fall
as fell thy manna down.
5 Drop thy still dews of quietness,
till all our strivings cease;
take from our souls the strain and stress,
and let our ordered lives confess
the beauty of thy peace.
6 Breathe through the heats of our desire
thy coolness and thy balm;
let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
speak through the earthquake, wind and fire,
O still small voice of calm. Topics: Discipleship; God Images (Father); Jesus Christ Call of; Lent; Prayer / Prayers / Poems; Repentance; Rest; Worship Scripture: 1 Kings 19:9-12 Languages: English Tune Title: REST
