Son of God, Eternal Savior

Author: Somerset Corry Lowry Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 64 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Son of God, eternal Savior, source of life and truth and grace, woman's Son, whose birth amongst us hallows all our human race: thou, our Head, who throned in glory for thine own dost ever plead, fill us with thy love and pity, heal our wrongs, and help our need. 2 As thou, Lord, hast lived for others, so may we for others live; freely have thy gifts been granted, freely may Thy servants give. Thine the gold and thine the silver, thine the wealth of land and sea, We but stewards of Thy bounty held in solemn trust for thee. 3 Come, O Christ, and reign above us, King of Love, and Prince of Peace; hush the storm of strife and passion, bid its cruel discords cease; by thy patient years of toiling, by thy silent hours of pain, quench our fever'd thirst of pleasure, shame our selfish greed of gain. 4 Son of God, eternal Savior, source of life and truth and grace, woman's Son whose birth among us hallows all our human race, thou who prayedst, thou who willest, that thy people should be one, grant, O grant our hope’s fruition; here on earth thy will be done.

Author: Somerset T. C. Lowry, 1855-1932 Hymnal: Christian Worship #729 (2021) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Son of God, eternal Savior, source of life and truth and grace, Word made flesh, whose birth among us, hallows all our human race, you our head, who, throned in glory, for your own will ever plead: fill us with your love and pity, heal our wrongs and help our need. 2 Bind us all as one together in your Church’s sacred fold, weak and healthy, poor and wealthy, sad and joyful, young and old. Is there want or pain or sorrow? Make us all the burden share. Are there spirits crushed and broken? Teach us, Lord, to soothe their care. 3 As you, Lord, have lived for others, so may we for others live. Freely have your gifts been granted; freely may your servants give. Yours the gold and yours the silver, yours the wealth of land and sea; we but stewards of your bounty held in solemn trust will be. 4 Son of God, eternal Savior, source of life and truth and grace, Word made flesh, whose birth among us hallows all our human race, by your praying, by your willing that your people should be one, grant, O grant our hope’s fruition: here on earth your will be done.

Henry Thomas Smart

1813 - 1879 Composer of "BETHANY (Smart)" in The Cyber Hymnal Henry Smart (b. Marylebone, London, England, 1813; d. Hampstead, London, 1879), a capable composer of church music who wrote some very fine hymn tunes (REGENT SQUARE, 354, is the best-known). Smart gave up a career in the legal profession for one in music. Although largely self taught, he became proficient in organ playing and composition, and he was a music teacher and critic. Organist in a number of London churches, including St. Luke's, Old Street (1844-1864), and St. Pancras (1864-1869), Smart was famous for his extemporiza­tions and for his accompaniment of congregational singing. He became completely blind at the age of fifty-two, but his remarkable memory enabled him to continue playing the organ. Fascinated by organs as a youth, Smart designed organs for impor­tant places such as St. Andrew Hall in Glasgow and the Town Hall in Leeds. He composed an opera, oratorios, part-songs, some instrumental music, and many hymn tunes, as well as a large number of works for organ and choir. He edited the Choralebook (1858), the English Presbyterian Psalms and Hymns for Divine Worship (1867), and the Scottish Presbyterian Hymnal (1875). Some of his hymn tunes were first published in Hymns Ancient and Modern (1861). Bert Polman
