Inspirer and hearer of prayer

Author: Rev. A. M. Toplady Appears in 184 hymnals Topics: Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 Inspirer and hearer of prayer, Thou shepherd and guardian of Thine, My all to Thy covenant care, I, sleeping or waking, resign. 2 If Thou art my shield and my sun, The night is no darkness to me; And, fast as my minutes roll on, They bring me but nearer to Thee. 3 A sovereign protector I have, Unseen, yet forever at hand; Unchangeably faithful to save, Almighty to rule and command. 4 His miles and His comforts abound, His grace, as the dew, shall descend; And walls of salvation surround The soul He delights to defend. Amen. Used With Tune: [Inspirer and hearer of prayer]

The Fields Are White

Appears in 58 hymnals Topics: The Home Eternal Harvest Time First Line: The fields are all white Lyrics: 1 The fields are all white, And the reapers are few, We children are willing, But what can we do, To work for our Lord in His harvest? 2 Our hands are so small, And our words are so weak, We cannot teach others; How then shall we seek To work for our Lord in His harvest? 3 We'll work by our pray'rs, By the off'rings we bring, By small self-denials; The least little thing May work for our Lord in His harvest, 4 Until, by and by, As the years pass at length, We too may be reapers, And go forth in strength To work for our Lord in His harvest.

He leads us on by paths we did not know

Author: H. O. Wiley Appears in 43 hymnals Topics: General Home and Personal Use Lyrics: 1 He leads us on by paths we did not know; Upward He leads us, though our steps be slow; Though oft we faint and falter on the way, Tho' storms and darkness oft obscure the day, Yet, when the clouds are gone, We know He leads us on. 2 He leads us on through all the unquiet years; Past all our dreamland hopes, and doubts, and fears He guides our steps; through all the tangled maze Of losses, sorrows, and o'erclouded days We know His will is done, And still He leads us on. 3 And He, at last, after the weary strife, After the restless fever we call life, After the dreariness, the aching pain, The wayward struggles which have proved in vain, After our toils are past, Will give us rest at last.

Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Various Occasions Marriage and the Home; Various Occassions Marriage and the Home Lyrics: 1 Crown with Thy benediction This covenant of love; And make this hallowed union Foretaste of heaven above: Let pure and perfect gladness, Let pure and perfect rest, And peace that know no sadness, Thy presence, Lord, attest. 2 As once in Eden's springtime, As once at Cana's feast, So consecrate this bridal-- Be thou its guest and priest! With sunshine wreathe the altar, Chase every cloud away, Nor let their voices falter Who plight their troth today. 3 God bless the bride and bridegroom, And fill with joy their life; Keep them, through all its changes, True husband, faithful wife! If Thou wilt smile upon them, They shall not need the sun; This thought their hearts rejoicing-- Henceforth, not twain but one. 4 With Thy great love befriend them, The love that casts out fear; And make a rainbow round them For every falling tear: Till, all their sheaves well-garnered, Heaven's harvest home they raise, Where love, that knows no ending, Inspires more perfect praise.

Arise! arise! the light breaks o'er thee, Thy name is graven on the throne; Thy home is in that world of glory Where thy Redeemer reigns alone. 2 Toss'd on the rude, relentless surges, Calmly compos'd and dauntless, stand; For lo, beyond these scenes emerges The hights that bound the promis'd land. Behold! behold! the land is nearing, Where storms of evil rage no more; Hark, how the heav'nly hosts are cheering! See in what throngs they range the shore. 3 Cheer up, cheer up, the day breaks o'er thee, Bright as the summer's noontide ray; The starry crowns and realms of glory Invite thy happy soul away. Away! away! leave all for glory, Thy name is graven on the throne, Thy home is in that world of beauty Where thy Redeemer reigns alone. Used With Tune: MORNING LIGHT
