God the Father, God the Son (Littledale)

Author: Richard F. Littledale Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1741 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: God the Father, God the Son Lyrics: 1. God the Father, God the Son, Holy Ghost, the Comforter, Ever blessèd Three in One, Hearken to our humble prayer: Hear us when we call to Thee, Spare us, Holy Trinity. 2. Hear us, Son of God, O hear! We approach Thee for our dead; Lead them, in the vale of fear, Be Thy wings around them spread: Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 3. Child of Mary, who didst bear, Mortal flesh, for man to die; Child of sorrow, toil, and care, Grant them rest eternally. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 4. Dweller in the vale of death, Second Adam, source of life, Wearer of the thorny wreath, Victor in the deadly strife. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 5. Thou who didst let fall the tear On the grave of Bethany; Who at Nain did stay the bier That lone mother’s tear to dry. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 6. Thou whose voice could wake the dead, Maid! I say to thee, arise! Who didst bow Thy dying hand On the day of sacrifice. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 7. Thou who passedst through the gloom Which enshrouds the vale of death, Guide their footsteps through the tomb, Shelter them Thine arms beneath. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 8. By Thy flesh with scourges torn, By Thy suffering human soul, By the crown of woven thorn, By the mocking title-scroll. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 9. By the quiet rock-hewn cave, Where Thy body slept so well, When Thy Spirit, through the grave, Entered to the realms of hell: Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 10. By Thy preaching of the Christ To the souls in prison bound, When was rolled away the mist Which had hung their vision round. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 11. By the eternal sacrifice Which Thou pleadest at the throne, Only gift which can suffice, For that gift is all Thine own. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 12. By the offering which we plead, One with Thine in Heaven above, By the Lamb whose five wounds bled, To fill full our cup of love. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 13. In the fell and fearful day, Day of fury and of ire, When the earth shall melt away In the thunder-blast of fire. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day. 14. When to hear the doom are met Saints and sinners, quick and dead, And the great white throne is set, And the books are open spread. Lord of life and love, we pray, Grant them mercy in that day.

In addition to these, a few of the more widely used of Dr. Littledale's original hymns, as "From hidden source arising," and others, are annotated under their respective first lines. In the People's Hymnal, 1867, Dr. Littledale adopted the following signatures:— A. L. P., i.e., A London Priest. B., i.e., An initial of a former address. B. T., i.e., The initials of a former address. D. L., i.e. Dr. Littledale. F., i.e., Frederick. F. R., i.e., Frederick Richard. L., i.e., Littledale. P. C. E., i.e., Priest of the Church of England. P. P. Bk., i.e., Priest's Prayer Book. Taken as a whole, Dr. Littledale's translations from the seven languages named above are characterised by general faithfulness to the originals, great simplicity of diction, good metre, smooth rhythm, and deep earnestness. His original compositions are usually on special subjects, for which, at th$ time they were written, there were few hymns, and are marked by the same excellent features of a good hymn as his translations. His main object throughout is to teach through Praise and Prayer. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907) ====================== Littledale, Richard F., p. 679, ii. He died at Red Lion Square, London, Jan. 11, 1890. --John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology, Appendix, Part II (1907)
