Christ, the Life of All the Living
Author: Ernst C. Homburg; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Lift Up Your Hearts #137 (2013) Scripture: John 18-20 Refrain First Line: thousand, thousand thanks are due Lyrics: 1 Christ, the life of all the living;
Christ, the death of death our foe;
Christ, for us yourself once giving
to the darkest depths of woe:
through your suffering, death, and merit,
life eternal we inherit;
Refrain:
thousand, thousand thanks are due,
dearest Jesus, unto you.
2 You have suffered great affliction
and have borne it patiently,
even death by crucifixion:
our atonement full and free.
Lord, you chose to be tormented,
that our doom should be prevented; [Refrain]
3 Lord, for all that bought our pardon,
for the sorrows deep and sore,
for the anguish in the garden,
we will thank you evermore.
For the victory of your dying—
sinful nature mortifying— [Refrain]

O Sing a Song of Bethlehem
Author: Louis F. Benson Hymnal: The Worshiping Church #192 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: John 18:37 Lyrics: 1 O sing a song of Bethlehem, of shepherds watching there,
and of the news that came to them from angels in the air:
the light that shone on Bethlehem fills all the world today;
of Jesus’ birth and peace on earth the angels sing alway.
2 O sing a song of Nazareth, of sunny days of joy,
O sing of fragrant flowers’ breath, and of the sinless Boy:
for now the flowers of Nazareth in every heart may grow;
now spreads the fame of his dear name on all the winds that blow.
3 O sing a song of Galilee, of lake and woods and hill,
of him who walked upon the sea and bade the waves be still:
for though, like waves on Galilee, dark seas of trouble roll,
when faith has heard the Master’s word, falls peace upon the soul.
4 O sing a song of Calvary, its glory and dismay;
of him who hung upon the tree, and took our sins away:
for he who died on Calvary is risen from the grave,
and Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored, is mighty now to save.

Ye awful deeps, rise high;
Sink low, ye tow'ring mountains,
The Lord is drawing nigh;
The righteous King of glory,
Foretold in sacred story.
Refrain:
O blest is He that came
In God the Father’s Name.

Thy Lord and King for aye!
Strew palms where He advanceth,
Spread garments in His way.
God’s promise faileth never,
Hosanna sound forever! [Refrain]
3 Fling wide thy portals, Zion,
And hail thy glorious King;
His tidings of salvation
To every people bring,
Who, waiting yet in sadness,
Would sing His praise in gladness. [Refrain]

And not with pomp and show,
Yet smiteth He with terror
Sin, death, and every foe.
The Spirit’s sword He wieldeth,
Not e’en to death He yieldeth. [Refrain]
5 Give heed, thou sinful people,
Thy King and Saviour own;
The kingdom He hath founded
Is not an earthly one;
No power can overthrow it,
Nor earthly wisdom know it. [Refrain]

Is fixed in heaven above:
His sanctified dominion
Is light alone and love.
His praise be ever sounding
For grace and peace abounding. [Refrain]

And closed its temple-door;
Its sacrifices ended;
Its scepter is no more.
Christ’s kingdom never ceaseth,
Its glory still increaseth. [Refrain]
