Give ear, ye children, to my law, Devout attention lend; Let the instructions of My mouth Deep in your hearts descend. 2.

Which we from sacred registers Of ancient times have known, And our forefathers' pious care To us has handed down. 4. Let children learn the mighty deeds Which God performed of old; Which in our younger years we saw, And which our fathers told. 5.

When Love Is Found

Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: Home and Family First Line: When love is found and hope comes home Lyrics: 1 When love is found and hope comes home, sing and be glad that two are one. When love explodes and fills the sky, praise God, and share our Maker's joy. 2 When love has flowered in trust and care, build both each day, that love may dare to reach beyond home's warmth and light, to serve and strive for truth and right. 3 When love is tried as loved ones change, hold still to hope though all seems strange, till ease returns and love grows wise through listening ears and opened eyes. 4 When love is torn and trust betrayed, pray strength to love till torments fade, till lovers keep no score of wrong, but hear through pain love's Easter song. 5 Praise God for love, praise God for life, in age or youth, in husband, wife. Lift up your hearts, let love be fed through death and life in broken bread. Used With Tune: GIFT OF LOVE

Thy way, not mine, O Lord

Author: H. Bonar Appears in 406 hymnals Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 Thy way, not mine, O Lord, However dark it be: Lead me by Thine own hand; Choose out the path for me. Smooth let it be, or rough, It will be still the best; Winding or straight, it leads Right onward to Thy rest. 2 I dare not choose my lot; I would not, if I might; Choose Thou for me, my God: So shall I walk aright. Take Thou my cup, and it With joy or sorrow fill, As best to Thee may seem; Choose Thou my good and ill. 3 Choose Thou for me my friends, My sickness or my health; Choose Thou my cares for me, My poverty or wealth. Not mine, not mine the choice, In things or great or small; Be Thou my Guide, my Strength, My Wisdom, and my All. Used With Tune: BLESSED HOME
