Lord, Who Left the Highest Heaven

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #692 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Lord, who left the highest heaven for a homeless human birth and, a child within a stable, came to share the life of earth - with your grace and mercy bless all who suffer homelessness. 2 Lord, who sought by cloak of darkness refuge under foreign skies from the swords of Herod's soldiers, ravaged homes and parents' cries - may your grace and mercy rest on the homeless and oppressed. 3 Lord, who lived secure and settled, safe within the Father's plan, and in wisdom, stature, favor growing up from boy to man - with your grace and mercy bless all who strive for holiness. 4 Lord, who leaving home and kindred, followed still as duty led, sky the roof and earth the pillow for the Prince of glory's head - with your grace and mercy bless sacrifice for righteousness. 5 Lord, who in your cross and passion hung beneath a darkened sky, yet whose thoughts were for your mother, and a thief condemned to die - may your grace and mercy rest on the helpless and distressed. 6 Lord, who rose to life triumphant with our whole salvation won, risen, glorified, ascended, all the Father's purpose done - may your grace, all conflict past, bring your children home at last.

Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander, 1823-95 Hymnal: Sampler #702 (1986) 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 mean and lowly Lived our earth our Savior holy. 3 But our eyes in truth should see him Through his own redeeming love, For that child so dear and gentle Is our Lord in heav'n above, As he leads his children on-- To the place where he is gone. 4 Not in that poor lowly stable With the oxen standing by Shall we see him, but in heaven, Set at God's right hand on high. Then like stars his children crowned, All in white, his praise will sound! Topics: Christmas Languages: English Tune Title: IRBY

All Is O'er, the Pain, the Sorrow

Author: Gerard Moultrie, 1829-85 Hymnal: Worship Supplement #731 (1969) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 All is o'er, the pain, the sorrow, Human taunts and Satan's spite; Death shall be despoiled tomorrow Of the Prey he grasps tonight. Yet once more, his own to save, Christ must sleep within the grave. 2 Fierce and deadly was the anguish On the bitter cross he bore; How did soul and body languish Till the toil of death was o'er! But that toil, so fierce and dread, Bruised and crushed the Serpent's head. 3 Close and still the tomb that holds him While in brief repose he lies; Deep the slumber that enfolds him, Veiled awhile from mortal eyes-- Slumber such as needs must be After hard-won victory. 4 So this night, with voice of sadness Chant the anthem soft and low; Loftier strains of praise and gladness From tomorrow's harps shall flow: Death and Hell at length are slain, Christ has triumphed! Christ doth reign! Topics: The Christian Year Holy Saturday Tune Title: PSALM 146

Long Before the World Is Waking

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: Worship Supplement 2000 #735 (2007) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Long before the world is waking, Morning mist on Galilee, From the shore, as dawn is breaking, Jesus calls across the sea; Hails the boat of weary men, Bids them cast their net again. 2 So they cast, and all their heaving Cannot haul their catch aboard; John in wonder turns, perceiving, Cries aloud, "It is the Lord!" Peter waits for nothing more, Plunges in to swim ashore. 3 Charcoal embers brightly burning, Bread and fish upon them laid: Jesus stands at day's returning In His risen life arrayed; As of old His friends to greet, "Here is breakfast; come and eat." 4 Christ is risen! Grief and sighing, Sins and sorrows, fall behind; Fear and failure, doubt, denying, Full and free forgiveness find. All the soul's dark night is past, Morning breaks in joy at last. 5 Morning breaks, and Jesus meets us, Feeds and comforts, pardons still; As His faithful friends He greets us, Partners of His work and will. All our days, on ev'ry shore, Christ is ours for evermore! Topics: Easter Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS (ZEUCH MICH)
