Who are these like stars appearing

Author: H. T. Schenck; F. E. Cox Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #178 (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Who are these like stars appearing, These, before God's throne who stand? Each a golden crown is wearing; Who are all this glorious band? Alleluia! hark, they sing, Praising loud their heavenly King. 2 Who are these of dazzling brightness, These in God's own truth arrayed, Clad in robes of purest whiteness, Robes whose lustre ne'er shall fade, Ne'er be touched by time's rude hand? Whence come all this glorious band? 3 These are they who have contended For their Saviour's honor long, Wrestling on till life was ended, Following not the sinful throng: These, who well the fight sustained, Triumph by the Lamb have gained. 4 These are they whose hearts were riven, Sore with woe and anguish tried, Who in prayer full oft have striven With the God they glorified: Now, their painful conflict o'er, God has bid them weep no more. 5 These like priests have watched and waited, Offering up to Christ their will; Soul and body consecrated, Day and night to serve him still: Now in God's most holy place Blest they stand before His face. Amen. Topics: All Saints; Burial of the Dead; Processionals Saints' Days Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS

He is risen, He is risen

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: The Hymnal #179 (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: He is risen, he is risen, Tell it out with joyful voice: He has burst his three days' prison; Let the whole wide earth rejoice: Death is conquered, man is free, Christ has won the victory. Come, ye sad and fearful-hearted, With glad smile and radiant brow: Lent's long shadows have departed; All his woes are over now, And the passion that he bore: Sin and pain can vex no more. Come, with high and holy hymning, Chant our Lord's triumphant lay; Not one darksome cloud is dimming Yonder glorious morning ray, Breaking o'er the purple east, Symbol of our Easter feast. He is risen, he is risen; He hath opened heaven's gate: We are free from sin's dark prison, Risen to a holier state; And a brighter Easter beam On our longing eyes shall stream.

May your power never fail us; Dwell within us constantly. Then shall truth and life and light Banish all the gloom of night. 2 Show us, Lord, the path of blessing; When we trespass on our way, Cast, O Lord, our sins behind you And be with us day by day. Should we stray, O Lord, recall; Work repentance when we fall. 3 With our spirit, Lord, bear witness That we are the saints of God Who rely upon him solely When we're chastened by the rod; For we know, as children should, That the cross is for our good. 4 Prompt us, Lord, to come before him With a childlike heart to pray; Sigh for us, O Holy Spirit, When we know not what to say. Then our prayer is not in vain, And our faith new strength shall gain. 5 Grant our hearts in fullest measure Wisdom, counsel, purity, That we always strive to please you, Working for you willingly. Let the gospel spread and grow, Bringing Satan's overthrow. Topics: Pentecost; Pentecost Languages: English Tune Title: KOMM, O KOMM, DU GEIST DES LEBENS

Wake, awake, O mighty nation, Lest the foe on Zion tread; He draws nigh, and would defy All the hosts of God Most High. 2 Saints and martyrs long before us Firmly on this ground have stood; See their banner waving o’er us, Conqu'rors through the Savior’s blood. Ground we hold, whereon of old Fought the faithful and the bold. 3 Fighting, we shall be victorious By the blood of Christ our Lord; On our foreheads, bright and glorious, Shines the witness of his Word; Spear and shield on battlefield, His great name; we cannot yield. 4 When his servants stand before him, Each receiving his reward; When his saints in light adore him, Giving glory to the Lord; "Victory!" our song shall be, Like the thunder of the sea.

Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil F. Alexander, 1818-1895 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #183 (2003) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city stood a lowly cattle shed, where a mother laid her baby in a manger for his bed: Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all, and his shelter was a stable, and his cradle was a stall: with the poor and meek and lowly lived on earth, our Savior holy. 3 Jesus is our childhood's pattern, day by day like us he grew; he was little, weak, and helpless, tears and smiles like us he knew: and he feels for all our sadness, and he shares in all our gladness. 4 And our eyes at last shall see him, through his own redeeming love; for that child, so dear and gentle, is our Lord in heaven above: and he leads his children on to the place where he has gone.
