Lord of Life and King of Glory
Author: Christian Burke, 1859-c.1915 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #470 (1957) Lyrics: 1 Lord of life and King of glory,
Who didst deign a child to be,
Cradled on a mother’s bosom,
Throned upon a mother’s knee:
For the children Thou hast given
We must answer unto Thee!
2 Since the day the blessed mother
Thee, the world's Redeemer, bore,
Thou hast crowned us with an honor
Women never knew before;
And that we may bear it meetly,
We must seek Thine aid the more.
3 Grant us then pure hearts and patient,
That in all we do or say
Little ones our deeds may copy,
And be never led astray;
Little feet our steps may follow
In a safe and narrow way.
4 When our growing sons and daughters
Look on life with eager eyes,
Grant us then a deeper insight
And new powers of sacrifice:
Hope to trust them, faith to guide them,
Love that nothing good denies.
5 May we keep our holy calling
Stainless in its fair renown,
That, when all the work is over
And we lay the burdens down,
Then the children Thou hast given
Still may be our joy and crown.
