O Little Town of Bethlehem

Author: Phillips Brooks Meter: 8.6.8.6 D irregular Appears in 857 hymnals Scripture: Job 38:7 Lyrics: 1 O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie; above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by. Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting Light; the hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight. 2 For Christ is born of Mary, and gathered all above, while mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wond'ring love. O morning stars, together proclaim the holy birth; and praises sing to God the King, and peace to all on earth. 3 How silently, how silently the wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of his heaven. No ear may hear his coming, but in this world of sin, where meek souls will receive him still, the dear Christ enters in. 4 O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray; cast out our sin, and enter in, be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel. Topics: Biblical Characters Mary Used With Tune: FOREST GREEN

Field and forest, vale and mountain, flowery meadow, flashing sea, chanting bird and flowing fountain, call us to rejoice in thee. 3 Thou art giving and forgiving, ever blessing, ever blest, well-spring of the joy of living, ocean depth of happy rest! Thou our Father, Christ our Brother-- all who live in love are thine; teach us how to love each other, lift us to the joy divine. 4 Mortals, join the happy chorus which the morning stars began; love divine is reigning o'er us, joining all within its span. Ever singing, march we onward, victors in the midst of strife; joyful music leads us sunward in the triumph song of life. Topics: Adoration Used With Tune: HYMN TO JOY

Songs of praise the angels sang

Author: Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 546 hymnals Scripture: Job 38:7 Lyrics: 1 Songs of praise the angels sang, Heaven with hallelujahs rang, When Jehovah's work begun, When he spake, and it was done. 2 Songs of praise awoke the morn When the Prince of Peace was born; Songs of praise arose when he Captive led captivity. 3 Heaven and earth must pass away-- Songs of praise shall crown that day; God will make new heavens and earth-- Songs of praise shall hail their birth. 4 And shall man alone be dumb, Till that glorious kingdom come? No; the Church delights to raise Psalms and hymns and songs of praise. 5 Saints below, with heart and voice, Still in songs of praise rejoice; Learning here, by faith and love, Songs of praise to sing above. 6 Borne upon their latest breath, Songs of praise shall conquer death; Then, amid eternal joy, Songs of praise their powers employ.

I danced for the fishermen, for James and John -- they came with me and the Dance went on. [Refrain] 3 I danced on the Sabbath when I cured the lame, the holy people said it was a shame. They whipped and they stripped and they hung me high, and they left me there on a Cross to die.

Brightest and Best of the Stars of the Morning

Author: Reginald Heber Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 915 hymnals Scripture: Job 38:7 Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning, Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid; Star 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 Savior of all! 3 Shall we then yield Him, in costly devotion, Odors of Edom and offerings divine. Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean, Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine? 4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation, Vainly with gifts would His favor secure; Richer by far is the heart’s adoration, Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. Used With Tune: MORNING STAR
