The homeland! the homeland!
Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #580 (1917) Topics: Homeland, the ; Homeland, the ; The Christian Life Time, Death, Eternity; Home Heaven our Lyrics: 1 The homeland! the homeland!
The land of the freeborn;
There's no night in the homeland,
But aye the fadeless morn:
I'm sighing for the homeland,
My heart is aching here;
There's no pain in the homeland,
To which I'm drawing near.
2 My Lord is in the homeland,
With angels bright and fair;
There's no sin in the homeland,
And no temptation there:
The voices of the homeland
Are ringing in my ears;
And when I think of the homeland,
My eyes are filled with tears.
3 For those I love in the homeland
Are calling me away,
To the rest and peace of the homeland
And the life beyond decay;
For there's no death in the homeland,
There is no grief above;
Christ brings us all to the homeland
Of His eternal love! Languages: English Tune Title: THE HOMELAND
The homeland! the homeland!
The Gospel Shows the Father's Grace
Author: Matthias Loy, 1828-1915 Hymnal: Lutheran Service Book #580 (2006) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian Home and Education Lyrics: 1 The Gospel shows the Father's grace,
Who sent His Son to save our race,
Proclaims how Jesus lived and died
That we might thus be justified.
2 It sets the Lamb before our eyes,
Who made the atoning sacrifice,
And calls the souls with guilt oppressed
To come and find eternal rest.
3 It brings the Savior's righteousness
To robe our souls in royal dress;
From all our guilt it brings release
And gives the troubled conscience peace.
4 It is the pow'r of God to save
From sin and Satan and the grave;
It works the faith which firmly clings
To all the treasures which it brings.
5 It bears to all the tidings glad
And bids their hearts no more be sad;
The weary, burdened souls it cheers
And banishes their guilty fears.
6 May we in faith its message learn
Nor thanklessly its blessings spurn;
May we in faith its truth confess
And praise the Lord, our righteousness.

The power to bless my house
Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #712 (1873) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 The power to bless my house
Belongs to God alone;
Yet rendering him my constant vows,
He sends his blessings down.

My house to serve the Lord,
To search the soul-converting page,
And feed upon his word?
3 To ask, with faith and hope,
The grace which he supplies,
In prayer and praise to offer up
Their daily sacrifice?

The hearts which thou hast made,
Which thou hast bought with love divine,
To ask thy promised aid. Scripture: 2 Samuel 6:20

Author: Ken Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #715 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, and with the sun
Thy daily course of duty run;
Shake off dull sloth, and early rise
To pay thy morning sacrifice.
2 Wake, and lift up thyself, my heart,
And with the angels bear thy part,
Who all night long unwearied sing
High praises to th' eternal King.
3 Glory to thee, who safe hast kept,
And hast refreshed me while I slept:
Grant, Lord, when I from death shall wake,
I may of endless life partake.
4 Lord, I my vows to thee renew;
Scatter my sins as morning dew;
Guard my first springs of thought and will,
And with thyself my spirit fill.
5 Direct, control, suggest this day
All I design, or do, or say;
That all my powers, with all their might,
In thy sole glory may unite.
6 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;

Wide as the heaven on which he sits
To turn the seasons round.
3 'Tis he supports my mortal frame;
My tongue shall speak his praise:
My sins would rouse his wrath to flame,
And yet his wrath delays.
4 Great God, let all my hours be thine,
While I enjoy the light;
Then shall my sun in smiles decline
And bring a peaceful night. Scripture: Psalm 57:8

The day is past and gone, The evening shades appear
Author: Leland Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #717 (1873) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 The day is past and gone,
The evening shades appear;
Oh, may we all remember well
The night of death draws near.
2 Lord! keep us safe this night,
Secure from all our fears;
May angels guard us while we sleep,
Till morning light appears.
3 And when we early rise,
And view th' unwearied sun,
May we set out to win the prize,
And after glory run.
4 And when our days are past,
And we from time remove,
Oh, may we in thy bosom rest,
The bosom of thy love.
The day is past and gone, The evening shades appear
God of the morning, at whose voice
Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #718 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 God of the morning, at whose voice
The cheerful sun makes haste to rise,
And, like a giant, doth rejoice
To run his journey through the skies--
2 From the fair chambers of the east
The circuit of his race begins,
And, without weariness or rest,
Round the whole earth he flies and shines.
3 Oh, like the sun may I fulfill
Th' appointed duties of the day;
With ready mind, and active will,
March on, and keep my heavenly way.
God of the morning, at whose voice
The hours of evening close
Author: Conder Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #720 (1873) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 The hours of evening close;
Its lengthened shadows, drawn
O'er scenes of earth, invite repose,
And wait the Sabbath dawn.
2 So let its calm prevail
O'er forms of outward care;
Nor thought for many things assail
The still retreat of prayer.
3 Our guardian Shepherd near
His watchful eye will keep;
And safe from violence or fear
Will fold his flock to sleep.
4 So may a holier light
Than earth's our spirits rouse,
And call us, strengthened by his might,
To pay the Lord our vows.
The hours of evening close
Softly, now, the light of day
Author: Doane Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #721 (1873) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 Softly, now, the light of day
Fades upon my sight away;
Free from care, from labor free,
Lord, I would commune with thee.
2 Soon, for me, the light of day
Shall for ever pass away;
Then, from sin and sorrow free,
Take me, Lord, to dwell with thee.
Softly, now, the light of day
Glory to thee, my God, this night
Author: Ken Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #722 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 Glory to thee, my God, this night,
For all the blessings of the light;
Keep me, oh, keep me, King of kings!
Beneath the shadow of thy wings.
2 Forgive me, Lord! for thy dear Son,
The ill that I this day have done;
That with the world, myself, and thee,
My soul, this night, at peace may be.
3 Teach me to live, that I may dread
The grave as little as my bed;
Teach me to die, that so I may
Rise glorious, at the judgment-day.
4 Oh, may my faith on thee repose;
May gentle sleep my eyelids close,
That shall my frame more vigorous make,
To serve my God when I awake.
5 Lord, let my soul for ever share
The bliss of thy parental care;
'Tis heaven on earth, 'tis heaven above,
To see thy face, and sing thy love. Scripture: Psalm 4:8
Glory to thee, my God, this night
Thus far the Lord has led me on
Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #723 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 Thus far the Lord has led me on,
Thus far his power prolongs my days;
And every evening shall make known
Some fresh memorial of his grace.
2 Much of my time has run to waste,
And I perhaps am near my home;
But he forgives my follies past,
He gives me strength for days to come.
3 I lay my body down to sleep;
Peace is the pillow for my head;
While well-appointed angels keep
Their watchful stations round my bed.
4 Thus when the night of death shall come,
My flesh shall rest beneath the ground,
And wait thy voice to rouse my tomb,
With sweet salvation in the sound. Scripture: Job 11:18-19
Thus far the Lord has led me on
Now condescend, almighty King
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #724 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Family The Home Altar Lyrics: 1 Now condescend, almighty King,
To bless this little throng;
And kindly listen while we sing
Our pleasant evening song.
2 Brothers and sisters, hand in hand,
Our lips together move:
Oh, smile upon this little band,
Unite our hearts in love.
3 We come to own the power divine
That watches o'er our days;
For this our feeble voices join;
To God we give the praise.
4 May we in safety sleep to-night,
From every danger free;
For, Lord, the darkness and the light
Are both alike to thee.
5 And when the rising sun displays
His cheering beams abroad,
Then may our grateful morning lays
Declare the love of God.
Now condescend, almighty King
