Watchman, Tell Us of the Night

Author: John Bowring, 1792-1872 Hymnal: Hymns for Youth #54 (1966) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1. Watchman, tell us of the night, What its signs of promise are. Traveler, o'er yon mountain's height, See that glory-beaming star. Watchman, does its beauteous ray Aught of joy or hope foretell? Traveler, yes; its brings the day, Promised day of Israel. 2. Watchman, tell us of the night, Higher yet that star ascends. Traveler, blessedness and light, Peace and truth its course portends. Watchman, will its beam alone Gild the sport that gave them birth? Traveler, ages are its own; See, it bursts o'er all the earth. 3. Watchman, tell us of the night, For the morning seems to dawn. Traveler, darkness takes its flight, Doubt and terror are withdrawn. Watchman, let thy wanderings cease; Hie thee to thy quiet home. Traveler, lo, the prince of peace, Lo, the Son of God is come. Languages: English Tune Title: ABERYSTWYTH

Lord, Thy Death and Passion Give

Author: Johann Heerman, 1585-1647 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #55a (1901) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Lord, Thy death and passion give Strength and comfort in my need. Every hour while here I live, On Thy love my soul shall feed. Thou didst death for me endure, And I fly all thoughts impure; Thinking on Thy bitter pains, Hushed in prayer my heart remains. 2 Yes, Thy cross hath power to heal All the wounds of sin and strife. Lost in Thee, my heart doth feel Sudden warmth and nobler life, In my saddest, darkest grief, Let Thy sweetness bring relief. Thou who camest but to save, Thou who fearest not the grave! 3Lord, in Thee I place my trust, Thou art my Defense and Tower; Death Thou treadest in the dust, O'er my soul he hath no power. That I may have part in Thee, Help and save and comfort me; Give me of Thy grace and might, Resurrection, life and light! 4 Fount of good, within me dwell, For the peace Thy presence sheds Keeps us safe in conflict fell, Charms the pain from dying beds. Hide me safe within Thine arm, Where no foe can hurt or harm; Whoso, Lord, in Thee doth rest, He hath conquered, he is blest.

Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-85 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #56 (1986) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Songs of thankfulness and praise, Jesu, Lord, to thee we raise, Manifested by the star To the sages from afar; Branch of royal David's stem In thy birth at Bethlehem; Anthems be to thee addrest, God in Man made manifest. 2 Manifest at Jordan's stream, Prophet, Priest, and King supreme; And at Cana wedding-guest In thy Godhead manifest; Manifest in power divine, Changing water into wine; Anthems be to Thee addrest, God in Man made manifest. 3 Manifest in making whole Palsied limbs and fainting soul; Manifest in valiant fight, Quelling all the devil's might; Manifest in gracious will, Ever bringing good from ill; Anthems be to Thee addrest, God in Man made manifest. 4 *Sun and moon shall darkened be, Stars shall fall, the heavens shall flee; Christ will then like lightning shine, All will see his glorious sign; All will then the trumpet hear, All will see the Judge appear; Thou by all wilt be confest, God in Man made manifest. 5 Grant us grace to see thee, Lord, Mirrored in thy holy word; May we imitate thee now, And be pure, as pure art thou; That we like to thee may be At thy great Epiphany, And may praise thee, ever blest, God in Man made manifest.

Saviour, When in Dust to Thee

Author: Sir Robert Grant, 1785-1838 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #58 (1901) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D First Line: Saviour when in dust to Thee Lyrics: 1 Saviour when in dust to Thee Low we bow th'adoring knee; When repentant, to the skies Scarce we lift our weeping eyes; Oh, by all Thy pains and woe Suffered once for man below, Bending from Thy throne on high, Hear our solemn Litany! 2 By Thy helpless infant years, By Thy life of want and tears, By Thy days of sore distress In the savage wilderness; By the dread, mysterious hour Of the insulting tempter's power: Turn, oh, turn, a favoring eye, Hear our solemn Litany! 3 By Thine hour of dire despair, By Thine agony of prayer; By the cross, the nail, the thorn, Piercing spear, and torturing scorn; By the gloom that veiled the skies O'er the dreadful sacrifice; Listen to our humble cry, Hear our solemn Litany! 4 By Thy deep expiring groan; By the sad sepulchral stone, By the vault whose dark abode Held in vain the rising God; Oh, from earth to heaven restored, Mighty, reascended Lord, Listen, listen to the cry Hear our solemn Litany! Amen. Topics: Lent Languages: English Tune Title: SPANISH HYMN

Author: Rev. Charles Wesley Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #59 (1929) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King; Peace on earth, and mercy mild; God and sinners reconciled." Joyful, all ye nations, rise, Join the triumph of the skies; With angelic hosts proclaim, "Christ is born in Bethlehem." Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King." 2 Christ, by highest Heav'n adore, Christ, the everlasting Lord: Late in time behold Him come, Offspring of a virgin's womb. Veiled in flesh the Godhead see, Hail th' incarnate Deity! Pleased as man with men to dwell, Jesus, our Immanuel. Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King." 3 Hail the Heav'n-born Prince of Peace! Hail the Sun of righteousness! Light and life to all He brings, Ris'n with healing in His wings: Mild He lays His glory by, Born that man no more may die; Born to raise the sons of earth; Born to give them second birth. Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King." Topics: Jesus Christ Birth Languages: English Tune Title: MENDELSSOHN
