O Grant Us, God, a Little Space

Author: John Ellerton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 125 hymnals Topics: Work and Vocation Lyrics: 1 O grant us, God, a little space from daily tasks set free. We meet within this holy place and find security. 2 Around us rolls the ceaseless tide of business, toil, and care, And scarcely can we turn aside for one brief hour of prayer. 3 Yet this is not the only place your presence may be found; On daily work you shed your grace, and blessings all around. 4 Yours are the workplace, home, and mart, the wealth of sea and land; The worlds of science and of art are fashioned by your hand. 5 Work shall be prayer, if all be wrought as you would have it done; And prayer, by you inspired and taught, shall then with work be one.

Author: Bianco da Siena, c. 1350-1434; Richard F. Littledale, 1833-1890 Meter: 6.6.11 D Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: Work of the Spirit Lyrics: 1 Come down, O Love divine, seek thou this soul of mine, and visit it with thine own ardor glowing. O Comforter, draw near; within my heart appear, and kindle it, thy holy flame bestowing. 2 O let it freely burn, till earthly passions turn to dust and ashes in its heat consuming; and let thy glorious light shine ever on my sight, and clothe me round, the while my path illuming. 3 Let holy charity mine outward vesture be, and loneliness become mine inner clothing— true lowliness of heart, which takes the humbler part, and o'er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing. 4 And so the yearning strong, with which the soul will long, shall far outpass the power of human telling; no soul can guess its grace till it become the place wherein the Holy Spirit makes his dwelling. Scripture: Ezekiel 36:26-27 Used With Tune: DOWN AMPNEY
