Unless the Lord the House Shall Build

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Marriage and the Home Lyrics: 1 Unless the Lord the house shall build, the weary builders toil in vain; unless the Lord the city shield, the guards a useless watch maintain. 2 In vain you rise ere morning break, and late your nightly vigils keep, and of the bread of toil partake; God gives to his beloved sleep. 3 Lo, children are a great reward, a gift from God in very truth; with arrows is his quiver stored who joys in children of his youth. 4 And blest the man whose age is cheered by stalwart sons and daughters fair; no enemies by him are feared, no lack of love, no want of care. Scripture: Psalm 127 Used With Tune: ABENDS Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912

Author: Adelaide Thrupp; Godfrey Thring Meter: 14.14.14.14 Appears in 40 hymnals Topics: Marriage Lyrics: 1 Lord, who at Cana’s wedding feast Didst as a Guest appear, Thou dearer far than earthly guest, Vouchsafe Thy presence here; For holy Thou indeed dost prove The marriage vow to be, Proclaiming it a type of love Between the Church and Thee. 2 This holy vow that man can make, The golden thread in life, The bond that none may dare to break, That bindeth man and wife, Which, blest by Thee, whate’er betide, No evil shall destroy, Through careworn days each care divides, And doubles every joy. 3 On those who now before Thee kneel, O Lord, Thy blessing pour, That each may wake the other’s zeal To love Thee more and more; Oh, grant them here in peace to live, In purity and love, And, this world leaving, to receive A crown of life above.
