Author: Calvin W. Laufer, d. 1938 Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #93 (1957) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O Master of the loving heart,
The Friend of all in need,
We pray that we may be like Thee
In thought and word and deed.
2 Thy days were full of kindly acts,
Thy speech was true and plain;
And no one ever sought Thee, Lord,
Who came to Thee in vain.
3 Thy face was warm with sympathy,
Thy hand God's strength revealed;
Who saw Thy face, or felt Thy touch
Were comforted and healed.
4 O grant us hearts like Thine, dear Lord,
So joyous, true, and free,
That all Thy children everywhere,
Be drawn by us to Thee.
Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ Life Scripture: Matthew 14:14 Tune Title: SERENITY
O Master of the Loving Heart
