I Heard the Robin Singing

Author: William Newell Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I heard the robin singing His happy morning song; I saw his happy helpmeet bringing Their breakfast to the young; And to me came a whisper, In winds that fanned the trees; ‘If God for these so careth, Will he not care for thee?’ 2 I saw the roses growing In beauty day by day; No queen in all her glory, So lovely in array. And on their leaves were written Sweet words of trust for me: ‘If God so clothed the roses, Will he not care for thee?’ 3 I thank thee, O my Father, That ‘mid life’s toil and dust, The birds and flow’rs can bring me Such heav’nly hope and trust; Quickened by faith they whisper The Master’s word to me: ‘If God for these so careth, Will he not care for thee?’ Used With Tune: FRANZ

Sound Over All Waters

Author: John G. Whittier Appears in 21 hymnals First Line: Sound over all waters, reach out from all lands Lyrics: 1 Sound over all waters, reach out from all lands, The chorus of voices, the clasping of hands; Sing hymns that were sung by the stars of the morn, Sing songs of the angels when Jesus was born. 2 Blow, bugles of battle, the marches of peace; East, west, north, and south, let the strong quarrel cease; O sing ye the song that the angels began, Sing glory to God, and of goodwill unto man! 3 With glad jubilations, bring hope to the nations, The dark night is ending, and dawn has begun; Rise, hope of the ages, arise like the sun; All speech flow to music, all hearts beat as one!

Every gift and talent bring, That with zeal and skill we may do his will; We are servants of the King. 2 We are come, a band of singers; There are weary ones and sad, And we bring our cheerful music And our songs to make them glad. There is hope and joy eternal For the world’s despondent throng; We are come, a band of singers, To proclaim the news in song. [Refrain] 3 We are come, a band of workers; We would bring both heart and brain To the service of the Saviour, That his will in all may reign. Then forever and forever Will the right have conquered wrong, And the world shall change its sighing, Into glad, triumphant song. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [We are come with joy and gladness]

Our Father’s God

Author: John G. Whittier Appears in 19 hymnals First Line: Our fathers’ God, from out whose hand Lyrics: 1 Our fathers’ God, from out whose hand The centuries fall like grains of sand, We meet today, united, free, And loyal to our land and thee, To thank thee for the era done, And trust thee for the opening one. 2 Our fathers to their graves have gone; Their strife is past, their triumph won; But sterner trials wait the race Which rises in their honored place,— A moral warfare with the crime And folly of an evil time. 3 So let it be! In God’s own might We gird us for the coming fight, And strong in him whose cause is ours In conflict with unholy powers, We grasp the weapons he has given,— The light, the truth, the love of heaven. 4 O make us, through the centuries long, In peace secure, in justice strong; Around our gift of freedom draw The safeguards of thy righteous law; And, cast in some diviner mold, Let the new cycle shame the old!
