Author: Christopher Smart Hymnal: Voices Together #266 (2020) Meter: 8.7.8.7 First Line: Where is this stupendous Stranger? Lyrics: 1 Where is this stupendous Stranger?
Prophets, shepherds, kings, advise!
Lead me to my Master's manger,
show me where my Savior lies.
2 O most Mighty, O most Holy,
far beyond the seraph’s thought,
are you then so mean and lowly
as unheeded prophets thought?
3 Oh, the magnitude of meekness!
worth from worth immortal sprung!
Oh, the strength of infant weakness,
if eternal is so young!
4 God all bounteous, all creative,
whom our sins could not dissuade,
you have come to be a native
of the very world you made. Topics: Incarnation Scripture: Matthew 1:18-25 Tune Title: McRAE

Christopher Smart
1722 - 1771 Author of "Where is this stupendous stranger" in Hymnal Smart, Christophe, M.A., was born at Shipburn, Kent, in 1722, and educated at Pembroke Hall, Cambridge, where he gained the Seatonian prize for five years, four of which were in succession, (B.A. 1747.) He removed to London in 1753, and gave some attention to literature: but neglecting both his property and his constitution, he became poor and insane. He died in the King's Bench, 1771. His Poems were published in 2 vols. in 1771. From that work "Father of light conduct my feet" (Divine Guidance), and "I sing of God the mighty Source" [God the Author of All), have been taken.
