In All My Vast Concerns With Thee
Happy the Home When God Is There
Author: Henry Ware, Jr., 1794-1843 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 92 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Happy the home when God is there,
and love fills ev'ry breast:
when one their wish, and one their prayer,
and one their heav'nly rest.
2 Happy the home where Jesus' name
is sweet to ev'ry ear;
where children early lisp his fame,
and parents hold him dear.
3 Happy the home where prayer is heard,
and praise is wont to rise,
where parents love the sacred Word,
that makes us truly wise.
4 Lord, let us in our homes agree,
this blessed peace to gain;
unite our hearts in love to thee,
and love to all will reign.

No, I Shall Envy Them No More
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 34 hymnals Lyrics: 1 No, I shall envy them no more,
Who grow profanely great,
Though they increase their golden store,
And rise to wondrous height.
2 They taste of all the joys that grow
Upon this earthly clod!
Well, they may search the creature through,
For they have ne’er a God.
3 Shake off the thoughts of dying too,
And think your life your own;
But death comes hastening on to you,
To mow your glory down.
4 Yes, you must bow your stately head,
Away your spirit flies,
And no kind angel near your bed,
To bear it to the skies.
5 Go now, and boast of all your stores,
And tell how bright you shine;
Your heaps of glittering dust are yours,
And my Redeemer’s mine. Used With Tune: DOWNS Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, 1707-09
No, I Shall Envy Them No More
O gracious God, in Whom I live
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 38 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O gracious God, in Whom I live,
My feeble efforts aid:
Help me to watch, and pray, and strive,
Tho' trembling and afraid.
2 Increase my faith, increase my hope,
When foes and fears prevail;
And bear my fainting spirit up,
Or soon my strength will fail.
3 Whene'er temptations fright my heart,
Or lure my feet aside,
My God, Thy powerful aid impart,
My guardian and my guide.
4 Oh, keep me in Thy heavenly way,
And bid the tempter flee;
And let me never, never stray
From happiness and Thee.
Amen.

Lord of my life! O may Thy praise
Author: Anna Steele Appears in 112 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord of my life! O may Thy praise
Employ my noblest powers,
Whose goodness lengthens out my days,
And fills the circling hours!
2 Preserved by Thy almighty arm,
I pass the shades of night,
Serene and safe from every harm,
And see returning light.
3 When sleep, death's semblance, o'er me spread,
And I unconscious lay;
Thy watchful care was round my bed
To guard my feeble clay.
4 For Jesus' sake, Thy tender care
My waking hours attend:
From every trespass, ev'ry snare,
My heedless steps defend.
5 Smile on my minutes as they roll
And guide my future days;
And let Thy goodness fill my soul
With gratitude and praise. Topics: The Catechism Morning Used With Tune: DOWNS

So Did the Hebrew Prophet Raise
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 49 hymnals Lyrics: 1. So did the Hebrew prophet raise
The brazen serpent high,
The wounded felt immediate ease,
The camp forbore to die.
2. Look upward in the dying hour,
And live, the prophet cries;
But Christ performs a nobler cure,
When Faith lifts up her eyes.
3. High on the cross the Savior hung,
High in the heav’ns he reigns:
Here sinners by th’ old serpent stung
Look, and forget their pains.
4. When God’s own Son is lifted up,
A dying world revives;
The Jew beholds the glorious hope,
Th’expiring Gentile lives. Used With Tune: DOWNS Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Songs, Book I, 1707, number 112
