Come, ye faithful, raise the strain

Author: St John of Damascus, c. 750; J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #106 (1986) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain Of triumphant gladness; God hath brought His Israel Into joy from sadness; Loosed from Pharoah's bitter yoke Jacob's sons and daughters; Led them with unmoistened foot Through the Red Sea waters. 2 'Tis the spring of souls to-day: Christ hath burst His prison, And from three days' sleep in death As a sun hath risen; All the winter of our sins, Long and dark, is flying From his light, to whom we give Laud and praise undying. 3 Now the queen of seasons, bright With the day of splendour, With the royal feast of feasts, Comes its joy to render; Comes to glad Jerusalem, Who with true affection Welcomes in unwearied strains Jesu's Resurrection. 4 Neither might the gates of death, Nor the tomb's dark portal, Nor the watchers, nor the seal, Hold thee as a mortal; But today amidst thine own Thou didst stand, bestowing That thy peace which evermore Passeth human knowing.

Hosanna, Loud Hosanna

Author: Jeanette, Threlfall, 1821-80 Hymnal: Lutheran Worship #106 (1982) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 Hosanna, loud hosanna, The little children sang; Through pillared court and temple The lovely anthem rang. To Jesus, who had blessed them, Close folded to his breast, The children sang their praises, The simplest and the best. 2 From Olivet they followed Mid an exultant crowd, The victor palm branch waving And chanting clear and loud. The Lord of men and angels Rode on in lowly state Nor scorned that little children Should on his bidding wait. 3 "Hosanna in the highest!" That ancient song we sing, For Christ is our Redeemer, The Lord of heav'n our King. Oh, may we ever praise him With heart and life and voice And in his blissful presence Eternally rejoice!

When Jesus came to Jordan

Author: Fred Pratt Green (1903-2000) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #108 (2013) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 When Jesus came to Jordan to be baptized by John, he did not come for pardon, but as his Father's Son. He came to share repentance with all who mourn their sins, to speak the vital sentence with which good news begins. 2 He came to share temptation, our utmost woe and loss, for us and our salvation to die upon the cross. So when the Dove descended on him, the Son of Man, the hidden years had ended, the age of grace began. 3 Come, Holy Spirit, aid us to keep the vows we make, this very day invade us, and every bondage break. Come, give our lives direction, the gift we covet most: to share the resurrection that leads to Pentecost.

Jesus, I Will Ponder Now

Author: August Crull, 1846-1923; Sigismund von Birken, 1626-81 Hymnal: Lutheran Worship #109 (1982) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I will ponder now On your holy Passion; With your Spirit me endow For such meditation. Grant that I in love and faith May the image cherish Of your suff'ring, pain, and death That I may not perish. 2 Make me see your great distress, Anguish, and affliction, Bonds and stripes and wretchedness And your crucifixion; Make me see how scourge and rod, Spear and nails did wound you, How you died for those, O God, Who with thorns had crowned you. 3 Yet, O Lord, not thus alone Make me see your Passion; But its cause to me make known And its termination. For I also and my sin Brought your deep affliction; This the shameful cause has been Of your crucifixion. 4 Grant that I your Passion view With repentant grieving, Let me not bring shame to you By unholy living. How could I refuse to shun Ev'ry sinful pleasure Since for me God's only Son Suffered without measure? 5 If my sins give me alarm And my conscience grieve me, Let your cross my fear disarm, Peace and pardon give me. Grant that I may trust in you And your holy Passion; If his Son forgives anew, God must have compassion. 6 Jesus, Lord, my heart renew, Let me bear my crosses, Learning humbleness from you, Peace despite my losses. May I give you love for love! Hear me, O my Savior, That I may in heav'n above Sing your praise forever.
