HYMN I. WE would call Thee Abba, Father! But our conscious hearts within, Deeply troubled, bid us rather Bow before the Judge of sin. God of love! Thy gentlest healing Sooth our wounded spirits now! Let Thy grace, its source revealing, Freshen every burning brow. Veil, O veil Thine awful splendour, Raise not in Thy wrath the rod! Merciful, in judgment tender, Of long suffering is our God! PSALM C. YE lands! with gladness serve the Lord! Let the round earth, with one accord, Know that the Lord is God alone, Our Shepherd, He who made us all : We are His flock, to Him are known, And keep His pasture, hear His call. Enter His gates with thankful song, For He is gracious! He is good! His mercy ever will endure! Through changing time His truth has stood Unchanging still, for ages sure! KEN'S MORNING HYMN. AWAKE! our souls, and with the sun All praise to Him who safely kept, Direct, O Lord, control this day That all our powers, with all their might, Praise God, from whom all blessings flow; Praise Him, all creatures here below; Praise Him above, ye heavenly host; Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. KEN'S EVENING HYMN. ALL praise to Thee, great God, this night, Keep us, O keep us, King of kings, Forgive us, Lord, for Thy dear Son, With all the world, ourselves, and Thee! O may our souls on Thee repose, All loose, all idle thoughts cast out, And make our very dreams devout; Praise God, from whom all blessings flow; Praise Him, all creatures here below; Praise Him above, ye heavenly host; Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. |
