O Christ, the Word, incarnate
Author: William Walsham How, 1823-1897 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #505 (1997) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:24 First Line: O Christ, the Word incarnate Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the Word incarnate,
O Wisdom from on high,
O Truth unchanged, unchanging,
O Light of our dark sky:
we praise you for the radiance
that from the hallowed page,
a lantern to our footsteps,
shines on from age to age.
2 Your people hold this treasure
from you, its source divine,
a light that to all ages
throughout the earth will shine;
it is the chart and compass
that all life's voyage through,
'mid mists and rocks and tempest,
still guides, O Christ, to you.
3 Oh make your church, dear Saviour,
a lamp of purest gold,
to bear before the nations
your true light, as of old;
oh teach your wandering pilgrims
by this their path to trace,
till, cloud and darkness ended,
they see you face to face. Topics: Church; Jesus Christ Word; Jesus Christ Way, Truth, Life; Jesus Christ Light of the World; Journey / Pilgrimage / Pilgrims; Mission; The Bible Languages: English Tune Title: CHENIES

where gems of truth are stored;

of Christ, the living Word.

a lamp of burnished gold,
to bear before the nations
thy true light, as of old;
O teach thy wandering pilgrims
by this their path to trace,

they see thee face to face. Languages: English Tune Title: BENTLEY

Ancient of everlasting days, and God of love;
the Lord, the great I AM, by earth and heav'n confessed:
I bow and bless the sacred name, forever bless'd.
2 He by himself hath sworn, I on his oath depend:
I shall on eagles' wings upborne, to heav'n ascend;
I shall behold his face, I shall his power adore,
and sing the wonders of his grace forevermore.
3 The God who reigns on high the great archangels sing,
and “Holy, Holy, Holy!” cry, “Almighty King!
who wast and art the same, and evermore shall be;
the Lord, our Father! great I AM, we worship thee.”
4 The whole triumphant host give thanks to God on high,
“Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!” they ever cry;
Hail, Abr'am’s God and mine (I join the heav'nly lays),
all might and majesty are thine and endless praise!

1 En el monte Calvario se vio una cruz,
emblema de afrenta y dolor;
y yo quiero esa cruz do murió mi Jesús
por salvar al más vil pecador.
Estribillo:
¡Oh! yo siempre amaré a esa cruz de Jesus,
en sus triunfos mi gloria será;
y algún día en vez de una aspera cruz,
mi corona Jesús me dará.
2 Aunque el mundo desprecie la cruz de Jesús,
para mí tiene suma atracción,
porque en ella llevó el Cordero de Dios
de mi pecado y mi condenación. [Estribillo]
3 En la cruz du su sangre Jesús derramó
hermosura contemplo en visión,
pues en ella de Cordero inmolado murió,
para darme pureza y perdón. [Estribillo]
4 Yo seré siempre fiel a la cruz de Jesús,
sus desprecios con él sufriré;
y algún día feliz con los santos en luz
para siempre su gloria tendré. [Estribillo]
