Thy Little Ones

Author: H. A. Brorson Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 22 hymnals Matching Instances: 14 First Line: Thy little ones, dear Lord, are we Lyrics: 1. Thy little ones, dear Lord, are we, And come Thy lowly bed to see; Enlighten ev'ry soul and mind, That we the way to Thee may find. 2. With songs we hasten Thee to greet, And kiss the dust before Thy feet, O blessed hour, O sweetest night, That gave Thee birth, our soul's delight. 3. Now welcome! From Thy heav'nly home Thou to our vale of tears art come; Man hath no off'ring for Thee, save The stable, manger, cross, and grave. 4. Jesus, alas! how can it be So few bestow a thought on Thee, Or on the love, so wondrous great, That drew Thee down to our estate? 5. O draw us wholly to Thee, Lord, Do Thou to us Thy grace accord, True faith and love to us impart, That we may hold Thee in our heart. 6. Keep us, howe'er the world may lure, In our baptismal cov'nant pure; That ev'ry yearning tho't may be Directed only unto Thee.

Thy Little Ones, O Savior Dear

Author: H. A. Brorson Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Thy little ones, O Savior dear, To Thee in Bethlehem draw near; Enlighten Thou our soul and mind That we the way to Thee may find. 2 We hasten Thee with songs to greet And kiss the dust before Thy feet. O sacred hour, O blessed night, When Thou wert born, our soul's Delight. 3 Be welcome from Thy heav'nly spheres To this our earthly vale of tears, Where men to Thee no glory gave But stable, manger, cross and grave. 4 O Jesus dear, how can it be That only few will think of Thee And of that great and wondrous love Which drew Thee to us from above. 5 Lord, draw Thy little children near To Thee, our Friend and Brother dear, That each of us, by Thy sweet grace, May Thee in faith and hope embrace. 6 Let not the world lead us astray That we our Christian faith betray, But grant that all our longings be O Lord, forever unto Thee. 7 Then shall at last we,too, proclaim In Paradise Thy glorious name, And with Thy saints our songs renew And praise Thee as the angels do. 8 Now, gathered here, a happy throng, We lift our voice to Thee in song; Oh, that in yonder, happy land We all before Thy throne may stand.

Pilcher; Hallgrim Petursson, 1614-1674 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Come, Lord, Thyself, in all Thy grace; Mine utmost need Thine eyes can trace: Be Thou my guide through life's long way, Nor let my falt'ring footsteps stray. 2 Upon mine eyes dark dawns the day, The sounds of earth fall far away; None, none can aid; by death's lone door I leave man's help for evermore. 3 None, none can aid, save Thou, dear Lord; I stay me on Thy faithful Word; Let earth decay, heav'n's glories pale, Jehovah's Word can never fail. 4 O may each psalm my voice can raise Extol Thy kindness, hymn Thy praise; O may each note my peps can frame In heaven's glory laud Thy name. 5 For evermore through that bright day I would my Savior's grace display And praise with all the ransomed host Thee, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Oh, Come, And Stand Beneath The Cross

Author: Thomas Kingo Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: Oh come, and stand beneath the cross Lyrics: 1 Oh, come and stand beneath the cross And hear what Jesus speaks to us; The words that from His mouth proceed Will comfort us in times of need. 2 He pray'd for all His enemies: "O Father dear, forgive them this; They know not what they do and say, But blindly walk their sinful way." 3 O Jesus, pray Thou, too, for me That I increase my strength in Thee, My heart is weak, my eyes are blind, But grant that I Thy light may find. 4 And when His mother He beheld, Whose heart with agony was fill'd, He said: "Behold thy mother, John!" And unto her: "Behold thy son!" 5 O Jesus, should I suffer loss And stand forsaken with my cross, Yea, even scorn'd by man I be, Send friends of Thine to comfort me. 6 The robber who his sins confessed Found comfort in his Savior blest, Who took the sting of death away And opened Paradise for aye. 7 Oh, let me, too, when death is near, From Thine own lips with gladness hear The blessed words: "Come thou to be Today in Paradise with me." 8 He then the words in anguish spoke, At which the earth and heaven shook; "My God," He cried in agony, "Why hast Thou thus forsaken me?" 9 God's wrath Thou borest on the cross, For me Thou borest grief and loss, For me Thou didst in anguish cry And die that I should never die. 10 "I thirst," He said; O evil thought, A sop of vinegar they brought! O Jesus, through its bitterness Thou drank'st the cup of my distress. 11 "'Tis finished!" said our dying Lord; O blessed comfort, glorious word! My sin and shame on Him were laid, And all my debts forever paid. 12 His final word, this blessed cry, Was full of hope from heaven high; He cried: "My Father, I commend My spirit in Thy loving hand." 13 Oh, how this word sweet hope instills And heart and soul with comfort fills! Oh, may that also be the word Which at my death I speak, O Lord! Topics: Passion and Easter Used With Tune: [Oh, come and stand beneath the cross]

Oh, day by day each Christian child

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Oh, day by day each Christian child Has much to do, without, within; A death to die for Jesus' sake, A weary way to wage with sin. 2 When deep within our welling hearts, The thoughts of pride and anger rise, When bitter words are on our tongues, And tears of passion in our eyes; 3 Then we may stay the angry blow, Then we may check the hasty word, Give gentle answers back again, And fight a battle for our Lord. 4 With smiles of peace and looks of love, Light in our dwellings we may make, Bid kind good-humor brighten there And do all still for Jesus' sake. 5 There's not a child so weak and small But has his little cross to take, His little work of love and praise, That he may do for Jesus' sake.
