Thou, Lord, of all the parent art

Thou, Lord, of all the parent art
Lord of all being, throned afar
Author: Dr. O. W. Holmes, 1809-1894 Appears in 445 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord of all being, throned afar,
Thy glory flames from sun and star;
Centre and soul of every sphere,
Yet to each loving heart how near.
2. Sun of our life, Thy quickening ray
Sheds on our path the glow of day;
Star of our hope, Thy softened light
Cheers the long watches of the night.
3. Our midnight is Thy smile withdrawn;
Our noontide is Thy gracious dawn;
Our rainbow arch, Thy mercy's sign;
All, save the clouds of sin, are Thine.
4. Lord of all life, below, above,
Whose light is truth, whose warmth is love,
Before Thy ever-blazing throne
We ask no lustre of our own.
5. Grant us Thy truth to make us free,
And kindling hearts that burn for Thee,
Till all Thy living altars claim
One holy light, one heavenly flame. Topics: God Light, our; Light God our; God Light, our; Light God our; The Godhead The Father Used With Tune: BRESLAU

He sat to watch o'er customs paid
Author: William Bright, 1824-1901 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: 1. He sat to watch o'er customs paid,
a man of scorned and hardening trade,
alike the symbol and the tool
of foreign master's hated rule.
2. But grace within his heart had stirred,
there needed but the timely word;
it came, true Lord of souls, from thee,
that royal summons, "Follow me."
3. Enough, when thou wast passing by,
to hear thy voice, to meet thine eye;
he rose, responsive to the call,
and left his task, his gains, his all.
4. O wise exchange! with these to part,
and lay up treasures in the heart;
let them of Matthew's wealth partake,
who yield up all for Jesus' sake.

For needed help from day to day
That as Thy children we may live,
Whom Thou in baptism did receive.

Absolve and lift us up again;
And thro’ the sacrament increase
Our faith till we depart in peace. Used With Tune: HERR JESU CHRIST, MEIN'S
