Shepherd of tender Youth

Author: Clement of Alexandria Hymnal: CCHS1916 #208 (1918) Lyrics: 1 Shepherd of tender youth, Guiding in love and truth, Thro' devious ways; Christ our triumphant King, We come Thy name to sing, And here our children bring To shout Thy praise. 2 Thou art our holy Lord, O all-subduing Word, Healer of strife; Thou didst thyself abase, That from sin's deep disgrace Thou mightest save our race, And give us life. 3 Thou art the great High Priest; Thou hast prepared the feast Of holy love: And in our mortal pain, None call on thee in vain; Help Thou dost not disdain, Help from above. 4 Ever be near our side, Our Shepherd and our Guide, Our Staff and Song: Jesus, Thou Christ of God, By Thine enduring word, Lead us where Thou hast trod, Make our faith strong. 5 So now, until we die, Sound we Thy praises high, And joyful sing: Let all the holy throng Who to Thy Church belong, Unite and swell the song To Christ our King!

My Church! my Church!

Hymnal: CCHS1916 #209 (1918) First Line: My church! my church! my dear old church! Lyrics: 1 My church! my church! my dear old church! My fathers’ and my own! On Prophets and Apostles built, And Christ the corner-stone! All else beside, by storm or tide, May yet be over-thrown: But not my church, my dear old church, My fathers’ and my own! 2 My church! my church! my dear old church! My glory and my pride! Firm in the faith Immanuel taught, She holds no faith beside. Upon this rock, ‘gainst ev'ry shock, Tho' gates of hell assail, She stands secure, with promise sure, “They never shall prevail.” 3 My church! my church! my dear old church! I love her ancient name; And God forbid, a child of hers Should ever do her shame! Her mother-care I'll ever share; Her child I am alone, Till He who gave me to her arms Shall call me to His own. 4 My church! my church! my dear old church! I've heard the tale of blood, Of hearts that loved her to the death-- The great, the wise, the good. Our martyred sires defied the fires For Christ the crucified; The once delivered faith to keep, They burned, they bled, they died. 5 My church! my church! I love my church! For she exalts my Lord! She speaks, she breathes, she teaches not, But from His written Word; And if her voice bids me rejoice, From all my sins released, 'Tis thro' th'atoning sacrifice, And Jesus is the Priest.

Come, here and now renew your vow To serve your Lord and God, And by His grace go forth to trace The path your fathers trod! 2 Beneath the banner of the Cross, Within our Church's fold, We seek to serve our common cause, As did the saints of old; In faith and prayer we bravely dare To face our fiercest foe, For, if we fight in God's own might, Success He will bestow. 3 Now bless us, Lord, that we may stand United, strong and true To serve Thee here with heart and hand In all we find to do! Help us, we pray, upon our way To ever trust in Thee, And grant us power each day and hour To win the victory! Topics: Childhood and Youth Youth; Work Languages: English Tune Title: ATHENS

The Son of God goes Forth

Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: CCHS1916 #212 (1918) First Line: The Son of God goes forth to war Lyrics: 1 The Son of God goes forth to war, A kingly crown to gain: His blood-red banner streams afar, Who follows in His train? Who best can drink his cup of woe, Triumphant over pain, Who patient bears his cross below, He follows in His train. 2 That martyr first, whose eagle eye Could pierce beyond the grave; Who saw his Master in the sky; And called on Him to save; Like Him, with pardon on His tongue; In midst of mortal pain, He prayed for them that did the wrong: Who follows in His train? 3 A noble band, the chosen few, On whom the Spirit came, Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew And mocked the torch of flame; They met the tyrant's brandished steel, The lion's gory mane, They bowed their necks the stroke to feel: Who follows in their train? 4 A noble army, men and boys, The matron and the maid, Around the Savior's throne rejoice, In robes of light arrayed. They climbed the steep ascent of heaven Through peril, toil, and pain: O God, to us may grace be given To follow in their train.

Angel Voices, ever Singing

Author: Francis Pott Hymnal: CCHS1916 #213 (1918) Lyrics: 1 Angel voices, ever singing 'Round Thy throne of light; Angel harps, forever ringing, Rest not day nor night. Thousands only live to bless Thee, And confess Thee, Lord of might. 2 Thou, Who art beyond the farthest Mental eye can scan, Can it be that Thou regardest Songs of sinful man? Can we feel that Thou art near us, And wilt hear us? Yea, we can. 3 Yea, we know Thy love rejoices O'er each work of Thine; Thou didst ears, and hands, and voices, For Thy praise combine; Craftsman's art and music's measure For Thy pleasure Didst design. 4 Here, Great God, to-day we offer Of Thine own to Thee; And for Thine acceptance proffer, All unworthily, Hearts and minds, and hands and voices, In our choicest Melody. 5 Honor, glory, might, and merit, Thine shall ever be, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Blessed Trinity! Of the best that Thou hast given Earth and heaven Render Thee. Topics: Childhood and Youth Youth; Childhood Languages: English Tune Title: ANGEL VOICES

Jesus, Thy Boundless Love

Author: John Wesley; Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: CCHS1916 #216 (1918) First Line: Jesus, Thy boundless love to me Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy boundless love to me No tho't can reach, no tongue declare; O knit my thankful heart to Thee, And reign without a rival there: Thine wholly, Thine alone, I am, Be Thou alone my constant flame. 2 O grant that nothing in my soul May dwell, but Thy pure love alone; O may Thy love possess me whole, My joy, my treasure, and my crown: Strange fires far from my soul remove; May ev'ry act, word, tho't, be love. 3 O love, how cheering is Thy ray! All pain before Thy presence flies; Care, anguish, sorrow, melt away, Where'er Thy healing beams arise. O Jesus, nothing may I see, Or hear, or feel, or think, but Thee. 4 Still let Thy love point out my way; How wondrous things Thy love hath wrought! Still lead me, lest I go astray; Direct my work, inspire my thought: And if I fall, soon may I hear Thy voice, and know that love is near. 5 In suff'ring, be Thy love my peace; In weakness, be Thy love my power; And when the storms of life shall cease, Jesus, in that important hour, In death, as life, be Thou my Guide, And save me, who for me hast died.

How shall the Young Secure

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: CCHS1916 #217 (1918) First Line: How shall the young secure their hearts Lyrics: 1 How shall the young secure their hearts, And guard their lives from sin? Thy word the choicest rules imparts To keep the conscience clean. 2 'Tis, like the sun, a heavenly light, That guides us all the day; And, thro' the dangers of the night, A lamp to lead our way. 3 The starry heavens Thy rule obey, The earth maintains her place; And these, Thy servants, night and day, Thy skill and power express. 4 But still Thy law and gospel, Lord, Have lessons more divine; Not earth stands firmer than Thy word, Nor stars so nobly shine. 5 Thy word is everlasting truth; How pure is ev'ry page! That holy book shall guide our youth, And well support our age. Topics: Childhood and Youth Youth Languages: English Tune Title: AZMON
