Father, Thine Elect Who Lovest
Author: Thomas H. Gill Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Father, Thine elect who lovest
With an everlasting love;
Savior, who the bar removest
From the holy home above;
Spirit, daily meetness bringing
For the glory there upstored;
List to Thy glad people singing,
Holy, holy, holy, Lord!
2. Lord, with sin-bound souls Thou bearest,
Struggling towards this strain divine;
Glad on mortal lips Thou hearest
That thrice awful name of Thine.
But Thou listenest, O how sweetly!
When from holy lips outpoured,
Rings through Heaven this strain full meetly,
Holy, holy, holy, Lord!
3. Shall we, Lord, meet voices never
Bring to that eternal hymn?
Hallow us to help the endeavor
Of Thy pure-lipped seraphim:
Hark! their own high strain we bring Thee;
Listen to the full accord!
Sweet the song we ever sing Thee,
Holy, holy, holy, Lord! Used With Tune: AUTUMN Text Sources: The Golden Chain, 1869

Far Above in Highest Heaven
Author: W. H. Scott Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Far above in highest heaven,
Jesus reigns, our Lord and King;
He His life for us has given,
He did life eternal bring:
Sing, then, children, sing with gladness,
Loud let grateful anthems ring;
Jesus is the children’s Saviour,
Jesus is the children’s King.
2 Once on earth the children praised Him,
And “hosanna” was their cry;
Now that God to heav’n has raised Him,
Loud they praise Him in the sky:
Shout, then children, shout your praises,
Loud let grateful anthems ring;
Jesus is the children’s Saviour,
Jesus is the children’s King.
3 Come, then, early, come to Jesus,
As the children did of old:
He from sin and sorrow frees us,
Never will His love grow cold:
Daily let us learn to love Him,
Daily let us join to sing:
Praises to our Lord and Saviour,
Praises to the children’s King.
4 Then, when life’s short days are ended,
If we’ve served our Saviour well,
By His angels gently tended,
In His kingdom we shall dwell;
There we’ll shout our joyous praises,
There the song of vict’ry sing:
Jesus is our Lord and Saviour,
Jesus is the children’s King. Topics: Children's Day; Children's Day Used With Tune: CHILDREN'S KING

Father, We Have Heard You Calling
Author: Gareth Hill Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father, we have heard you calling
to your church in every age;
for a sign of true devotion
for a sacrifice of praise.
In this place where you have brought us,
may we always seek to be
one in love and one in worship –
children of eternity.
2 Jesus Christ, our faith's perfecter,
priest and advocate above.
We would reach our broken nation
with the truth of your great love.
So transform our feeble witness,
may we always live to be
one in love and one in worship –
children of eternity.
3 Holy Spirit, fire of heaven,
fall upon us here today.
Bring release, bring tears, bring passion,
then transform your church, we pray.
As you pour your grace upon us,
may we always thirst to be
one in love and one in worship –
children of eternity.
4 Praise we bring to God the Father,
praise we bring to God the Son,
praise to God the Holy Spirit,
praise to you, the three in one.
Trinity of love inspire us,
may we always strive to be
one in love and one in worship –
children of eternity.

Weary of indwelling sin;
Struggling, wrestling, and suppressing
Fail to give me rest within.
Refrain:
Jesus, Jesus, blessèd Jesus!
Thou hast now this heart of mine,
Keep it ever pure and holy,
May my will be always Thine.
2 Now I cease my vain endeavor;
Thou alone canst set me free;
Laying all upon Thine altar,
To the cleansing fount I flee. [Refrain]
3 Sinking, sinking; lower lower,
’Neath the flow of cleansing blood;
Nothing knowing, all forsaking,
Wholly swallowed up in God! [Refrain]
4 Rising higher, and still higher,
Lost in regions of delight!
No more doubting, no more sinning,
No more shadows, no more night. [Refrain]
5 Oh, the boundless love of Jesus!
How it fills and thrills my soul!
Now I have the full assurance,
As I near the heav’nly goal. [Refrain] Used With Tune: BLACKFRIARS

Friend of Sinners, Lord of Glory
Author: C. Newman Hall Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 37 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Friend of sinners, Lord of glory,
Lowly, mighty, Brother, King!
Musing o’er Thy wondrous story,
Grateful we Thy praises sing:
Friend to help us, cheer us, save us,
In whom pow’r and pity blend—
Praise we must the grace which gave us
Jesus Christ, the sinners’ Friend.
2. Friend who never fails nor grieves us,
Faithful, tender, constant, kind;
Friend who at all times receives us,
Friend who came the lost to find.
Sorrow soothing, joys enhancing,
Loving until life shall end;
Then conferring bliss entrancing,
Still, in heaven, the sinners’ Friend.
3. O to love and serve Thee better!
From all evil set us free;
Break, Lord, every sinful fetter;
Be each thought conformed to Thee:
Looking for Thy bright appearing,
May our spirits upward tend;
Till no longer doubting, fearing,
We behold the sinners’ Friend. Used With Tune: CARLTON
