Happy the home when God is there

Author: Anon. Appears in 96 hymnals Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 Happy the home when God is there, And love fills every breast; When one their wish, and one their prayer, And one their heavenly rest. 2 Happy the home where Jesus' name Is sweet to every 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, And live but for the skies. 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.

Author: William J. Blew Appears in 30 hymnals Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 Another day is gone, Great God, we bow to thee; Again, as shades of night steal on, Unto thy side we flee. 2 O, when shall that day come, Ne'er sinking in the west, That country and that happy home, Where none shall break our rest; 3 Where all things shall be peace, And pleasure without end, And golden harps, that never cease, With joyous hymns shall blend?

Sun of my soul, O Saviour dear!

Author: John Keble Appears in 1,496 hymnals Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, O Saviour dear! It is not night if thou be near: O may no earth-born cloud arise To hide thee from thy servant's eyes. 2 When soft the dews of kindly sleep My weary eyelids gently steep, Be my last thought how sweet to rest Forever on my Saviour's breast! 3 Abide with me from morn till eve, For without thee I cannot live; Abide with me when night is nigh, For without thee I dare not die. 4 Be near and bless me when I wake, Ere through the world my way I take Till in the ocean of thy love I lose myself in heaven above.

Onderdonk Appears in 127 hymnals Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 The Saviour kindly calls Our children to his breast; He folds them in his gracious arms; Himself declares them blest. 2 "Let them approach," he cries, "Nor scorn their humble claim; The heir of heaven are such as these; For such as these I came." 3 With joy we bring them, Lord, Devoting them to thee; Imploring that, as we are thine, Thine may our offspring be.

The day is past and gone

Author: John Leland Appears in 605 hymnals Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 The day is past and gone, The evening shades appear; O, may we all remember well The night of death draws near. 2 Lord, keep us safe this night, Secure from all our fears; May angels guard us while we sleep, Till morning light appears. 3 And if we early rise, And view the unwearied sun, May we set out to win the prize, And after glory run. 4 And when our days are past, And we from time remove, O, may we in thy bosom rest The bosom of thy love.
