Gracious Saviour, Who Didst Honor

Author: Emily L. Shirreff, 1843-1897 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #473 (1957) Lyrics: 1 Gracious Saviour, 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: Dedication of Home; Home; Mother's Day Languages: English Tune Title: MOTHERHOOD

Shamley Green, Guilford, Surrey, England, 1903) was born in the parsonage of Alford, where his father was rector. Educated at Balliol College, Oxford, England, he was ordained a priest in the Church of England in 1847. After serving in several other parishes, Thring re­turned to Alford and Hornblotten in 1858 to succeed his father as rector, a position he retained until his own retirement in 1893. He was also associated with Wells Cathedral (1867-1893). After 1861 Thring wrote many hymns and published several hymnals, including Hymns Congregational (1866), Hymns and Sacred Lyrics (1874), and the respect­ed A Church of England Hymn Book Adapted to the Daily Services of the Church Throughout the Year (1880), which was enlarged as The Church of England Hymn Book (1882). Bert Polman ================ Thring, Godfrey, B.A., son of the Rev. J. G. D.

In 1880 he published A Church of England Hymnbook Adapted to the Daily Services of the Church throughout the Year; and in 1882, a revised and much improved edition of the same as The Church of England Hymn Book, &c. A great many of Prebendary Thring's hymns are annotated under their respective first lines; the rest in common use include:— 1. Beneath the Church's hallowed shade. Consecration of a Burial Ground.
