Dear Lord and Father of Mankind
(Tune of Webster )

Dear Lord and Father of mankind.
Forgive our fev'rish ways;
Reclothe us in our rightful mind;
In purer lives thy service find,
In deeper reverence praise.

In simple trust like theirs who heard,
Beside the Syrian sea,

The gracious calling of the Lorú,
Let us, like them, without a word,
Rise up and follow thee.

O Sabbath rest by Galilee!

O calm of hills above!

There "esus knelt to share with thee

The silence of eternity,

Interpreted by love.

Drop thy still dews of quietness.

Till all our strivings cease;

Take from our souls the strain and stress

And let our ordered lives confess

The beauty of ty peace.

Breathe thro' the heats of our desire

Thy coolness and ty balm

Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire:

Speak thro' the earthquake, wind, and fire, O still small voice of calm
