Noell, nowell, nowell, nowell
Meter: Irregular Appears in 398 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 21:1-11 First Line: The first nowell the angel did say Lyrics: 1 The first nowell the angel did say
was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay,
in fields where they lay keeping their sheep
on a cold winter's night that was so deep.
Refrain:
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell,
born is the king of Israel.
2 When they looked up they saw a star
shining in the east beyond them far,
and to the earth it gave great light
and so it continued both day and night. [Refrain]
3 And by the light of that same star
three wise men came from country far;
to seek for a king was their intent,
and to follow the star wherever it went. [Refrain]
4 This star drew nigh to the north-west;
over Bethlehem it took its rest,
and there it did both stop and stay
right over the place where Jesus lay. [Refrain]
5 Then entered in those wise men three
and reverently, upon their knee,
they offered there in his presence
their gold and myrrh and frankincense. [Refrain]
6 Now let us all with one accord
sing praises to our heavenly Lord,
who has made heaven and earth from naught,
and with his blood salvation bought. [Refrain] Topics: Jesus Christ Incarnation Used With Tune: THE FIRST NOWELL Text Sources: Anon., English, c. 17th cent.

Lord, may we ever think and sing!
Arise, ye guilty, he'll forgive;
Arise, ye needy, he'll relieve.
2 Eternal Lord! Almighty King!
All heav'n doth with thy triumphs ring;
Thou conquer'st all beneath, above,
Devils with force, and men with love.
3 To shame our sins, Christ blush'd in blood,
He clos'd his eyes to shew us God;
Let all the world fall down and know,
That none but God such love could show.

Hear your servants as we pray,
And your fullest benediction
Shed in all its brightest ray.

All the grace they ask to gain;

With the blessed to retain,
And hereafter in your glory,
Evermore with you to reign.

Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
Author: Edward Hayes Plumptre, 1821-1891 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 177 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 21:9 Lyrics: 1 Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
was strong to heal and save;
it triumphed o'er disease and death,
o'er darkness and the grave:
to thee they went, the blind, the dumb,
the palsied and the lame,
the outcasts with their grievances,
the sick with fevered frame.
2 And lo, thy touch brought life and health,
gave speech and strength and sight;
and youth renewed and frenzy calmed
owned thee, the Lord of light:
and now, O Lord, be near to bless,
almighty as before,
in crowded street, by restless couch,
as by that ancient shore.
3 Be thou our great deliv'rer still,
thou Lord of life and death;
restore and quicken, soothe and bless,
with thine almighty breath:
to hands that work, and eyes that see,
give wisdom's heav'enly lore,
that whole and sick, and weak and strong,
may praise thee evermore. Topics: Healing; Year A Second Sunday Before Lent; Year C Proper 17 Used With Tune: ST MATTHEW

With Happy Voices Ringing
Author: William G. Tarrant Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 86 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 21:1-17 Lyrics: 1 With happy voices ringing,
Thy children, Lord, appear,
Their joyous praises bringing
In anthems sweet and clear.
For skies of golden splendor,
For azure rolling sea,
For blossoms sweet and tender,
O Lord, we worship Thee.
2 What though no eye beholds Thee,
No hand Thy hand may feel,
Thy universe unfolds Thee,
Thy starry heavens reveal.
The earth and all its glory,
Our homes and all we love,
Tell forth the wondrous story
Of One who reigns above.
3 And shall we not adore Thee,
With more than joyous song,
And live in truth before Thee,
All beautiful and strong?
Lord, bless our souls' endeavor
Thy servants true to be,
And through all life, forever,
To live our praise to Thee.

At the forming of a church
Author: Dr. Doddridge Appears in 75 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 21:3 First Line: Great Father of mankind Lyrics: 1 Great Father of mankind,
We bless that wond'rous grace
Which could for Gentiles find,
Within thy courts a place:
How kind the care
Our God displays,
For us to raise
A house of prayer!
2 Tho' once estranged far,
We now approach the throne
For Jesus brings us near,
And makes our cause his own:
Strangers no more,
To thee we come,
And find our home,
And rest secure.
3 To thee our souls we join,
And love thy sacred name;
No more our own, but thine,
We triumph in thy claim;
Our father-king,
The covenant grace,
Our souls embrace,
Thy titles sing.
4 Here in thy house we fest
On dainties all divine;
And, while such sweets we taste,
With joy our faces shine;
Incense shall rise
From flames of love,
And God approve
The sacrifice.
5 May all the nations throng,
To worship in thy house;
And thou attend the song,
And smile upon their vows;
Indulgent still,
'Till earth conspire
To join the choir
On Zion's hill.
