Christian Worship How Amiable Are Thy Tabernacles, O Lord Of Hosts. Great God! attend, while Zion singsThe joy that from thy presence springs;To spend one day with thee, on earth,Exceeds a thousand days of mirth.

Christian Worship Choosing The Better Part. Beset with snares on every hand,In life’s uncertain path I stand:Father divine! diffuse thy light,To guide my doubtful footsteps right.

Christian Worship Filial Submission. And can my heart aspire so high,To say, My Father, God?Lord, at thy feet, I fain would lie,And learn to kiss the rod.

Christian Worship Evening Hymn Psalm 141:2. Softly now the light of dayFades upon my sight away;Free from care, from labor free,Lord, I will commune with thee. Thou, whose all-pervading eyeNought escapes, without, within:Pardon each infirmity,Open fault and secret sin. Soon, for me, the light of dayShall forever pass away;Then from sin and sorrow free,Take me, […]

Christian Worship The Pilgrims. Our fathers, Lord, to seek a spotWhere they might kneel to thee,Their own fair heritage forgot,And braved an unknown sea. Here found their pilgrim souls reposeWhere long the heathen roved;And here their humble anthems roseTo bless the Power they loved. They sleep in dust,-but where they trod,A feeble, fainting band,Glad millions […]
