Gracious Savior, Who Didst Honor

Author: Emily L. Shirreff, 1814-1897 Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #530 (1974) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Gracious Savior, who didst honor Womankind as woman’s son; Very man, though God begotten, And with God the Father One; Grant that womanhood may be Consecrated, Lord, to Thee. 2 Jesus, Son of human mother, Bless our motherhood, we pray; Give us grace to lead our children, Draw them to Thee day by day; May our sons and daughters be Dedicated, Lord, to Thee. 3 Thou who didst with Joseph labor, Nor didst humble work disdain, Grant we may Thy footsteps follow Patiently through toil or pain; May our quiet home-life be Lived, O Lord, in Thee, to Thee. 4 Thou who didst go forth in sorrow, Toiling for the souls of men, Thou who shalt draw all men to Thee, Though despised, rejected then; Humble though our influence be, Use it in the world for Thee. Amen. Topics: Children Hymns about Children; Dedications of Children and Parents; Family; Home; Mother's Day Scripture: Proverbs 31:30 Languages: English Tune Title: KOMM, O KOMM
