Summer Suns are Glowing

Author: William W. How Hymnal: Concordia #221 (1918) Topics: Childhood and Youth Youth; Childhood Lyrics: 1 Summer suns are glowing Over land and sea; Happy light is flowing Bountiful and free; Ev'rything rejoices In the mellow rays; All earth's thousand voices Swell the psalm of praise. 2 God's free mercy streameth Over all the world, And His banner gleameth Ev'rywhere unfurled; Broad and deep and glorious As the heav'n above, Shines in might victorious His eternal Love. 3 Lord, upon our blindness, Thy pure radiance pour; For Thy loving kindness Make us love Thee more. And when clouds are drifting Dark across our sky, Then, the veil uplifting, Father, be Thou nigh. 4 We will never doubt Thee. Tho' Thou veil Thy light; Life is dark without Thee, Death with Thee is bright. Light of light! Shine o'er us On our pilgrim way; Go Thou still before us To the endless day.

Is there grief or sadness? Firm our trust shall be; Light shall come from Thee. 2 If with honest-hearted Love for God and man, Day by day Thou find us Doing what we can; Thou who giv'st the seed-time Wilt give large increase, Crown the head with blessings, Fill the heart with peace. 3 On our way rejoicing Gladly let us go; Conquered hath our Leader, Vanquished is our foe! Christ without, our safety; Christ within, our joy; Who, if we be faithful, Can our hope destroy? 4 Unto God the Father Joyful songs we sing; Unto God the Savior Thankful hearts we bring; Unto God the Spirit Bow we and adore; On our way rejoicing Now and evermore.

By Thy love constraining, By Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord's side; Savior, we are Thine! 3 Fierce may be the conflict, Strong may be the foe, But the King's own army None can over-throw. Round His standard ranging Vict'ry is secure: For His truth unchanging Makes the triumph sure. Joyfully enlisting, By Thy grace divine, We are on the Lord's side; Savior, we are Thine!

I ought to Love my Savior

Hymnal: Concordia #227 (1918) Topics: Childhood and Youth Youth; Childhood Lyrics: 1 I ought to love my Savior; No earthly friend can be So loving, kind, and faithful As He hath been to me. Before my lips could utter His sweet and precious name, Until the present moment, His love hath been the same. 2 He left His home in glory To save my soul from death; And now in all life's dangers He still sustains my breath. I lay me down and slumber All through the hours of night, And wake again in safety To hail the morning light. 3 It is but very little For Him that I can do; Then let me seek to serve Him My earthly journey through; And without sigh or murmur, To do His holy will, And in my daily duties, His wise commands fulfill. 4 And when I reach the mansion He has prepared for me, 'Twill be my grateful pleasure My Savior's face to see; And 'mid the angels' music, Which then will greet my ear, How eagerly I'll listen My Savior's voice to hear.
