God from on high hath heard!

Author: Charles Coffin, 1676-1749; James Russell Woodford, 1820-1885 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #66 (2010) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 God from on high hath heard! Let sighs and sorrows cease! Lo! from the opening heaven descends to man the promised peace. 2 Hark! through the silent night angelic voices swell; their joyful songs proclaim that God is born on earth to dwell. 3 See how the shepherd-band speed on with eager feet; come to the hallowed cave with them the holy Babe to greet. 4 But O what sight appears within that lowly door! A manger, stall, and swaddling clothes, a child and mother poor! 5 Art thou the Christ? The Son? The Father’s image bright? And see we him whose arm upholds earth and the starry height? 6 Yea, faith can pierce the cloud which veils thy glory now; we hail Thee God, before whose throne the angels prostrate bow. 7 Our sinful pride to cure with that pure love of thine, O be thou born within our hearts, most holy Child divine.

Praise we the Lord this day

Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #763 (2010) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Praise we the Lord this day, this day so long foretold, whose promise shone with cheering ray on waiting saints of old. 2 The prophet gave the sign for faithful hearts to read: a virgin born of David's line, shall bear the promised seed. 3 Ask not how this should be, but worship and adore, like her whom heaven's Majesty came down to shadow o'er. 4 She meekly bowed her head to hear the gracious word, Mary, the pure and lowly maid, the favoured of the Lord. 5 Most blest shall be her name in all the church on earth, through whom that wondrous mercy came, the incarnate Saviour's birth.

Commit Thou All Thy Griefs

Author: Paul Gerhardt; John Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #970 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Commit thou all thy griefs And ways into His hands, To His sure truth and tender care, Who heaven and earth commands. 2. Who points the clouds their course, Whom winds and seas obey, He shall direct thy wandering feet, He shall prepare thy way. 3. Thou on the Lord rely, So safe shalt thou go on; Fix on His work thy steadfast eye So shall thy work be done. 4. No profit canst thou gain By self consuming care; To Him commend thy cause, His ear Attends the softest prayer. 5. Thy everlasting truth, Father, Thy ceaseless love, Sees all Thy children’s wants, and knows What best for each will prove. 6. Thou everywhere hast sway, And all things serve Thy might; Thy every act pure blessing is, Thy path unsullied light. 7. When Thou arisest, Lord, What shall Thy work withstand? Whate’er Thy children want, Thou giv’st; And who shall stay Thy hand? Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE (Gauntlett)

Come, Kingdom of Our God

Author: John Johns Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #883 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Come, kingdom of our God, Sweet reign of light and love! Shed peace and hope and joy abroad, And wisdom, from above. 2. Over our spirits first Extend Thy healing reign; There raise and quench the sacred thirst That never pains again. 3. Come, kingdom of our God! And make the broad earth Thine; Stretch o’er her lands and isles the rod That flowers with grace divine. 4. Soon may all tribes be blest With fruit from life’s glad tree; And in its shade like brothers rest, Sons of one family. 5. Come, kingdom of our God, And raise the glorious throne In worlds by the undying trod, When God shall bless His own. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE (Gauntlett)
