1. Our Father, by whose name
All fatherhood is known,
Who dost in love proclaim
Each family Thine own,
Bless Thou all parents, guarding well,
With constant love as sentinel,
The homes in which Thy people dwell.
2. O Christ, Thyself a child
Within an earthly home,
With heart still undefiled,
Thou didst to manhood come;
Our children bless in ev'ry place
That they may all behold Thy face,
And knowing Thee may grow in grace.
3. O Spirit, who dost bind
Our hearts in unity,
Who teachest us to find
The love from self set free,
In all our hearts such love increase
That ev'ry home by this release
May be the dwelling place of peace.

Hi Dad,
Since I didn't remember what the website was called, i had to Google your name until I found it, so I bookmarked it! PS--I don't have a Gmail account, so I used Justin's :)
Happy Father's Day, I love you!
Love, Sarah
Thanks for putting the name of the tune so I could look it up in the hymnal! That makes life so much easier.
