It is stage by stage to the golden age

Author: Walter Hawkins, 1857- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #612 (1917) Topics: For the Young First Line: The future belongs to the children Lyrics: 1 The future belongs to the children, Though much to the past we owe, Though much may be done in the present; We stay when the old people go. The vision God gave to our fathers Is coming to us in our turn; And at the first gleam of its splendor Our hearts are beginning to burn. Refrain: It is stage by stage to the golden age, To the golden age, It is stage by stage to the golden age, Far off we seem to view it; But the good we crave wilt come to the brave Who see God's will and do it. 2 Around us are wrongs and misdoings, And struggle, and suff'ring, and woe; The helpless are needing a champion, The tempted are pressed by the foe; And children are foully neglected, They even are thrust into sin; And the knights of the good Lord Jesus Have many a battle to win. [Refrain] 3 The promise belongs to the children, Saith One who is faithful and true A promise of welfare and blessing, Which God to the young doth renew: Its glimmer is cleaving the darkness; We know that the day is begun; And cloudland is tinged with the glory That tells of the might of the sun.

I think, when I read that sweet story of old

Author: Mrs. J. Luke, 1813-1906 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #614 (1917) Topics: For the Young Lyrics: 1 I think, when I read that sweet story of old, When Jesus was here among men, How He called little children as lambs to His fold, I should like to have been with Him then; I wish that His hands had been placed on my head, That His arm had been thrown around me, And that I might have seen His kind look when He said Let the little ones come unto Me! 2 Yet still to His footstool in prayer I may go, And ask for a share in His love; And if I now earnestly seek Him below, I shall see Him and hear Him above, In that beautiful place He is gone to prepare For all who are washed and forgiven; And many dear children are gathering there, For of such is the kingdom of heaven. 3 But thousands and thousands who wander and fall Never heard of that heavenly home; I should like them to know there is room for them all, And that Jesus has bid them to come. I long for the joy of that glorious time, The sweetest, and brightest, and best, When the dear little children of every clime Shall crowd to His arms and be blessed.

Dear Saviour, if these lambs should stray

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #654 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: For the young and old Lyrics: 1 Dear Saviour, if these lambs should stray, From thy secure enclosure's bound; And, lur'd by worldly joys away, Among the thoughtless crowd be found, 2 Remember still that they are thine, That thy dear sacred name they bear, Think that the seal of love divine,-- The sign of cov'nant grace they wear. 3 In all their erring, sinful years, Oh, let them ne'er forgotten be; Remember all the pray'rs and tears, Which made them consecrate to thee. 4 And when these lips no more can pray, These eyes can weep for them no more, Turn thou their feet from folly's way, The wand'rers to thy fold restore.

Eternal Sire, enthron'd on high!

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #455 (1814) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Particular Occasions and Circumstances For the Young, And Old Lyrics: 1 Eternal Sire, enthon'd on high! Whom heav'nly hosts adore, Who yet to suppliant dust art nigh: Thy presence I implore. 2 Wilt thou forsake my hoary hairs, And leave my fainting heart? Who shall sustain my sinking years, If God, my strength, depart? 3 O guide me down the steep of age, And keep my passions cool; Teach me to scan the sacred page, And practise ev'ry rule. 4 Let me thy pow'r and truth proclaim To the surviving age; And leave a savour of thy name, When I shall quit the stage. 5 That solemn day is hast'ning on; My frame must soon decay. My friends, my youth's companions gone, Can I expect to stay? 6 My God! O smooth the mortal hour; On thee my hope depends. Support me with almighty pow'r While dust to dust descends. 7 Then let my soul, O gracious God! Ascend to realms of day; And in that sacred blest abode Its endless anthems pay. Languages: English

Jesus is our Shepherd

Author: Hugh Stowell, 1799-1865 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #592 (1917) Topics: For the Young Lyrics: 1 Jesus is our Shepherd, Wiping every tear; Folded in His bosom, What have we to fear? Only let us follow Whither He doth lead, To the thirsty desert Or the dewy mead. 2 Jesus is our Shepherd: Well we know His voice; How its gentlest whisper Makes our heart rejoice! Even when He chideth, Tender is its tone; None but He shall guide us; We are His alone. 3 Jesus is our Shepherd: For the sheep He bled; Every lamb is sprinkled With the blood He shed; Then on each He setteth His own secret sign: "They that have My Spirit, These," saith He, "are Mine." 4 Jesus is our Shepherd: Guarded by His arm, Though the wolves may raven, None can do us harm: When we tread death's valley, Dark with fearful gloom, We will fear no evil, Victors o'er the tomb.
