Son of the Living God!
Author: Charles Wesley; Anonymous Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Son of the living God! thy hands
no human toil disdained;
an earthly father's wise commands
thy daily work ordained.
2 Son of the carpenter, receive
this humble work of mine;
worth to my meqanest labor give,
by joining it to thine.
3 End of my ev'ry action thou,
in all things thee I see;
accept my hallowed labor now;
I do it unto thee.
4 Thy bright example I pursue,
to thee in all things rise;
may all I think, or speak, or do
be one great sacrifice.
5 Careless through outward cares I go,
from all distraction free;
my hands are but engaged below,
my heart is still with thee.

All pray in their distress,
And to these virtues of delight
Return their thankfulness.
2 For Mercy, Pity, Peace, and Love,
Is God our Father dear;
And Mercy, Pity, Peace, and Love,
Is Man, his child and care.
3 For Mercy has a human heart,
Pity, a human face;
And Love, the human form divine,
And Peace, the human dress.
4 Then every man, of every clime,
That prays in his distress,
Prays to the human form divine:

William Blake
1757 - 1827 Person Name: William Blake, 1757-1827 Author of "To Mercy, Pity, Peace, and Love" in The New English Hymnal Blake, William, poet and painter, born 1757, and died 1827. Published Songs of Innocence in 1789, in which appeared a poem in 9 stanzas of 4 lines beginning. "Can I see another's woe" (Sympathy), and headed "On Another's Sorrow." (See also The Poems of William Blake, &c, Lond., W. Pickering, 1874, p. 105.) This poem is repeated in Martineau's Hymns, &c, 1873, and others.
--John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)
====================
Blake, William, p. 1553, ii. Another poem from his Songs of Innocence is "To Mercy, Pity, Peace and Love." In 1789 ed., p. 17, it is entitled "The Divine Image." The English Hymnal, 1906, No. 506, ranks it among General Hymns. It is certainly difficult to call it a hymn at all, or to assign it to any special purpose. [Rev. James Mearns, M.A.]

Small Church Music
Editors: William Blake Description:
The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling
to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid
1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of
this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset
of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano
with organ versions. All recordings are in MP3 format.
Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per
month.
The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse.
Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo
and pitch to suit their local needs.
Copyright notice: Rev. Clyde McLennan, performer in this collection, has assigned his performer rights in this collection to Hymnary.org. Non-commercial use of these recordings is permitted. For permission to use them for any other purposes, please contact manager@hymnary.org.
