Brightest and Best
Author: Reginald Heber (1783-1826) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 914 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:1-20 First Line: Brightest and best of the stars of the morning Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
dawn on our darkness, and lend us thine aid:
gem of the East, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
2 Cold on his cradle the dewdrops are shining,
low lies his head with the beasts of the stall;
angels adore him in slumber reclining,
Maker and Monarch and Saviour of all.
3 Say, shall we yield him, in costly devotion
odours of Edom and offerings divine,
gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,
myrrh from the forest and gold from the mine?
4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
vainly with gifts would his favour secure;
richer by far is the heart’s adoration,
dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.
5 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid;
gem of the East, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. Topics: Epiphany (feast); Christmas Used With Tune: STELLA ORIENTIS

as I hear
far and near
sweetest angel voices;
"Christ is born," their choirs are singing
yill the air
everywhere
now with joy is ringing.
2 Hark! a voice from yonder manger,
soft and sweet,
doth entreat,
"Flee from woe and danger!
Pilgrims, come! From all that grieves you
you are freed;
all you need
I will surely give you."
3 Come, then, let us hasten yonder!
Here let all,
great and small,
kneel in awe and wonder!
Love him who with love is yearning!
Hail the star,
that from far
bright with hope is burning!
4 Then, dear Lord, with heed I'll cherish,
live to thee,
and with thee
dying, shall not perish;
but shall dwell with thee forever,
far on high,
in the joy
that can vanish never. Topics: Christmas; Epiphany Used With Tune: WARUM SOLLT ICH

Author: Josiah G. Holland Meter: 12.12.12.12 Appears in 205 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:7 First Line: There's a song in the air! There's a star in the sky! Lyrics: 1 There’s a song in the air! There’s a star in the sky!
There’s a mother’s deep prayer and a baby’s low cry!
And the star rains its fire while the beautiful sing,
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King!
2 There’s a tumult of joy o’er the wonderful birth,
For the virgin’s sweet Boy is the Lord of the earth.
Ay! the star rains its fire while the beautiful sing,
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King!
3 In the light of that star lie the ages impearled;
And that song from afar has swept over the world.
Every hearth is aflame, and the beautiful sing
In the homes of the nations that Jesus is King!
4 We rejoice in the light, and we echo the song
That comes down through the night from the heavenly throng.
Ay! we shout to the lovely evangel they bring,
And we greet in His cradle our Savior and King! Used With Tune: CHRISTMAS SONG Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/Theres_a_Song_in_the_Air); The Cyber Hymnal (http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/t/s/tsongair.htm)

Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence
Author: Gerard Moultrie (1829-1885) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 175 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:1-20 Lyrics: 1 Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
and with fear and trembling stand;
ponder nothing earthly-minded,
for with blessing in his hand
Christ our God to us approacheth,
our full homage to demand.
2 King of kings, yet born of Mary,
as of old on earth he stood,
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
in the body and the blood,
he will give to all the faithful
his own self for heavenly food.
3 Rank on rank the host of heaven
spreads its vanguard on the way,
as the Light of light descendeth
from the realms of endless day,
that the powers of hell may vanish
as the darkness clears away.
4 At his feet the six-winged seraph,
cherubim with sleepless eye
veil their faces to the presence,
as with ceaseless voice they cry,
"Alleluia, alleluia,
alleluia, Lord most high!" Topics: Eucharist; liturgical Communion Songs; Adoration; Angels; Eucharist; Praise of God Used With Tune: PICARDY Text Sources: The Liturgy of St. James
