Great Saviour, who didst condescend

Hymnal: BW1870 #505 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Great Saviour, who didst condescend Young children in Thine arms t'embrace, Still prove Thyself the infants' friend, Baptize them with Thy cleansing grace. 2 Whilst in the slippery paths of youth, Be Thou their Guardian and their Guide, That they, directed by Thy truth, May never from Thy precepts slide. 3 To love Thy word their hearts incline, To understand it, light impart; O Saviour, consecrate them Thine, Take full possession of their heart.

God of mercy, hear our prayer

Hymnal: BW1870 #506 (1870) Lyrics: 1 God of mercy, hear our prayer, For the children Thou hast given, Let them all Thy blessings share, Grace on earth and bliss in heaven. 2 Cleanse their souls from ev'ry stain, Through the Saviour's precious blood; Let them all be born again, And be reconciled to God. 3 For this mercy, Lord, we cry; Bend Thine ever-gracious ear; While on Thee our souls rely, Hear our prayer, in mercy hear.

By cool Siloam's shady rill

Hymnal: BW1870 #507 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 By cool Siloam's shady rill How sweet the lily grows; How sweet the breath beneath the hill Of Sharon's dewy rose; And such the child whose early feet The paths of peace have trod, Whose secret heart with influence sweet, Is upward drawn to God. 3 By cool Siloam's shady rill, The lily must decay' The rose that blooms beneath the hill Must shortly fade away; And soon, too soon, the wintry hour Of man's maturer age May shake the soul with sorrow's power, And stormy passion's rage. 3 O Thou, whose infant feet was found With heavenly rays to shine,, Whose years, with changeless virtue crown'd, Were all alike divine-- Dependent on thy bounteous breath, We seek Thy grace alone; In childhood, manhood, and in death, To keep us still Thine own.

How dark and sad before!

Hosanna with a cheerful sound

Hymnal: BW1870 #514 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Hosanna with a cheerful sound To God's upholding hand!

And ev'ry day and ev'ry hour We lean upon the Lord. 3 The rising morn cannot assure That we shall end the day; For death stands ready at the door To take our lives away. 4 God is our Sun, whose daily light Our joy and safety brings; Our feeble frame lies safe at night Beneath His sheltering wings.
