This Is My Father's World
Author: Maltbie D. Babcock Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 354 hymnals Topics: Scripture Songs First Line: This is my Father's world And to my listening ears Lyrics: 1 This is my Father's world,
And to my listening ears
All nature sings, and round me rings
The music of the spheres.
This is my Father's world:
I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas--
His hand the wonders wrought.
2 This is my Father's world:
The birds their carols raise,
The morning light, the lily white,
Declare their Maker's praise.
This is my Father's world:
He shines in all that's fair;
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass,
He speaks to me everywhere.
3 This is my Father's world:
O let me ne'er forget
That though the wrong seems oft so strong,
God is the Ruler yet.
This is my Father's world:
Why should my heart be sad?
The Lord is King: let the heavens ring!
God reigns; let earth be glad!

In his hand he gently bears us,
rescues us from all our foes.

Widely yet his mercy flows!
4 Angels, help us to adore him;
you behold him face to face.
Sun and moon, bow down before him,
dwellers all in time and space.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace!

Book of Books, Our People's Strength
Author: Percy Dearmer Meter: 7.8.7.8.8.8 Appears in 29 hymnals Topics: Scriptures, The Holy Lyrics: 1 Book of books, our people's strength,
Statesman's, teacher's, hero's treasure,
Bringing freedom, spreading truth,
Shedding light that none can measure;
Wisdom comes to those who know thee,
All the best we have we owe thee.
2 Thank we those who toiled in thought,
Many diverse scrolls completing,
Poets, prophets, scholars, saints,
Each his word from God repeating;
Till they came, who told the story
Of the Word, and showed His glory.
3 Praise we God, who hath inspired
Those whose wisdom still directs us;
Praise Him for the Word made flesh,
For the Spirit who protects us.
Light of knowledge, ever burning,
Shed on us thy deathless learning.
Amen. Scripture: Romans 15:4 Used With Tune: LIEBSTER JESU

Like seed into the ground,
Now let the dew of heaven descend
And righteous fruits abound.
2 Let not the foe of Christ and man
This holy seed remove,
But give it root in every heart
To bring forth fruits of love. A-men.
3 Let not the world's deceitful cares
The rising plant destroy,
But let it yield a hundredfold
The fruits of peace and joy.
4 Oft as the precious seed is sown
Thy quickening grace bestow,
That all whose souls the truth receive
Its saving power may know.
Amen. Used With Tune: ST. FULBERT
