Brightest and best of the sons of the morning

Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #98a (2010) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the sons 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 dew-drops 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, or 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.

Calm on the list'ning ear of night

Author: E. H. Sears Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #55b (1898) Lyrics: 1 Calm on the listening ear of night Come heaven's melodious strains, Where wild Judea stretches far Her silver mantled plains. 2 Celestial choirs from courts above Shed sacred glories there; And angels, with their sparkling lyres, Make music on the air. 3 The answering hills of Palestine Send back the glad reply; And greet, from all their holy heights, The Day-Spring from on high. 4 O'er the blue depths of Galilee There comes a holier calm, And Sharon waves, in solemn praise, Her silent groves of palm. 5 "Glory to God!" the sounding skies Loud with their anthems ring, "Peace to the earth, good-will to men, From heaven's eternal King!" 6 Light on thy hills, Jerusalem! The Saviour now is born: More bright on Bethlehem's joyous plains Breaks the first Christmas morn. Amen. Topics: Christmas Tune Title: EPIPHANY
