Like a mighty river flowing

Author: Michael Perry (1942-1996) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #711b (2013) Lyrics: 1 Like a mighty river flowing, like a flower in beauty growing, far beyond all human knowing is the perfect peace of God. 2 Like the hills serene and even, like the coursing clouds of heaven, like the heart that's been forgiven is the perfect peace of God. 3 Like the summer breezes playing, like the tall trees softly swaying, like the lips of silent praying is the perfect peace of God. 4 Like the morning sun ascended, like the scents of evening blended, like a friendship never ended is the perfect peace of God. 5 Like the azure ocean swelling, like the jewel all-excelling, far beyond our human telling is the perfect peace of God.

The Quempas Celebration

Author: Martin L. Seltz, 1909-67; Winfred Douglas; Herbert Bouman, 1908- Hymnal: Worship Supplement #718a (1969) Meter: 8.8.8.7 First Line: He whom shepherd men came praising Lyrics: 1 He whom shepherd men came praising, Awed by heaven light a blazing, Cheered by angel news amazing: King of glory Christ is born! The glorious angels came today Aglow with light into the night of darkness deep, To shepherds who by moon's bright ray Did in the field o'er sheep their silent vigil keep. "Joy, great joy and tidings glad we bring from heaven resounding, For you, for you and all the world abounding." God's own Son is born a child, is born a child; God the Father is reconciled, is reconciled! 2 He whom sages, westward faring, Myrrh and gold and incense bearing. Humbly worshiped, offerings sharing: Judah's Lion reigns this morn! "God's majesty has come to earth And sent his only Son to you in humankind; A chosen virgin gave him birth, In David's town the holy Infant you will find, Lying helpless in a manger, poor and bare and lowly, To set you free from all your sorrow wholly." God's own Son is born a child, is born a child; God the Father is reconciled, is reconciled! 3 Sing with Mary, maiden mother; Laud her Son, our newborn Brother; Angel ranks, lead one another, Hailing him in holy joy! Then sang the angels this refrain: "To God on high alone give praise and glory, And peace on earth again shall reign; Let all mankind with gladness heed this story And rejoice in his good will." The Savior came in meekness For you, for you to bear your flesh in weakness. God's own Son is born a child, is born a child; God the Father is reconciled, is reconciled! 4 To our King, God ever-reigning, Yet of Mary manhood gaining, Heavenly gifts for us obtaining, Raise your hymns of homage high! The wondering shepherds said, "Behold, Let us now go with all good speed to Bethlehem To see this thing the Lord has told. The cattle leave; he will indeed take care of them." There they found the Wonder Babe, in lowly swaddling clothes lying, Though all the world with his free grace supplying. God's own Son is born a child, is born a child; God the Father is reconciled, is reconciled! Tune Title: QUEM PASTORES

Father, Who on Man Dost Shower

Author: Percy Dearmer Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1676 Meter: 8.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1. Father, who on man dost shower Gifts of plenty from Thy dower, To Thy people give the power All Thy gifts to use aright. 2. Give pure happiness in leisure, Temperance in every pleasure, Holy use of earthly treasure, Bodies clear and spirits bright. 3. Lift from this and every nation All that brings us degradation; Quell the forces of temptation; Put Thine enemies to flight. 4. Be with us, Thy strength supplying, That with energy undying, Every foe of man defying, We may rally to the fight. 5. Thou who art our Captain ever, Lead us on to great endeavor; May Thy Church the world deliver: Give us wisdom, courage, might. 6. Father, who has sought and loved us, Son of God, whose love has bound us, Holy Ghost, within us, round us— Hear us, Godhead infinite. Languages: English Tune Title: QUEM PASTORES

Gabriel, from the Heaven Descending

Author: Adam of St. Victor; John M. Neale Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1679 Meter: 8.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1. Gabriel, from the Heaven descending, On the faithful Word attending, Is in holy converse blending With the virgin full of grace: 2. That good word and sweet he plighteth In the bosom where it lighteth, And for Eva Ave writeth, Changing Eva’s name and race. 3. At the promise that he sendeth God the Incarnate Word descendeth; Yet no carnal touch offendeth Her, the undefilèd one. 4. She, without a father, beareth, She no bridal union shareth, And a painless birth declareth That she bare the Royal Son. 5. Tale that wondering search entices! But believe—and that suffices; It is not for man’s devices Here to pry with gaze unmeet: 6. High the sign, its place assuming In the bush, the unconsuming: Mortal, veil thine eyes presuming, Loose thy shoes from off thy feet. 7. As the rod, by wondrous power, Moistened not by dew or shower, Bare the almond and the flower, Thus He came, the virgin’s fruit: 8. Hail the Fruit, O world, with gladness! Fruit of joy and not of sadness: Adam had not lapsed to madness Had he tasted of its shoot. 9. Jesus, kind above all other, Gentle Child of gentle mother, In the stable born our Brother, Whom the angelic hosts adore: 10. He, once cradled in a manger, Heal our sin and calm our danger; For our life, to this world stranger, Is in peril evermore. Languages: English Tune Title: QUEM PASTORES
