How Long Wilt Thou Conceal Thy Face?
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2480 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. How long wilt Thou conceal Thy face?
My God, how long delay?
When shall I feel those heav’nly rays
That chase my fears away?
2. How long shall my poor laboring soul
Wrestle and toil in vain?
Thy word can all my foes control
And ease my raging pain.
3. See how the prince of darkness tries
All his malicious arts;
He spreads a mist around my eyes,
And throws his fiery darts.
4. Be Thou my sun, and Thou my shield,
My soul in safety keep;
Make haste, before mine eyes are sealed
In death’s eternal sleep.
5. How would the tempter boast aloud
If I become his prey!
Behold, the sons of hell grow proud
At Thy so long delay.
6. But they shall fly at Thy rebuke,
And Satan hide his head;
He knows the terrors of Thy look,
And hears Thy voice with dread.
7. Thou wilt display Thy sovereign grace,
Where all my hopes have hung,
I shall employ my lips in praise
And victory shall be sung. Languages: English Tune Title: BRISTOL (Ravenscroft)

O Zion, open wide thy gates
Author: Jean-Baptiste de Santeüil, 1630-1697; Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #771b (2010) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O Zion, open wide thy gates,
let symbols disappear;
a priest and victim, both in one,
the Truth himself, is here.
2 Aware of hidden deity,
the lowly Virgin brings
her newborn babe, with two young doves,
her humble offerings.
3 The agèd Simeon sees at last
his Lord, so long desired,
and Anna welcomes Israel's hope,
with holy rapture fired.
4 But silent knelt the mother blest
of the yet silent Word,
and pondering all things in her heart,
with speechless praise adored.
5 All glory to the Father be,
all glory to the Son,
all glory, Holy Ghost, to thee,
while endless ages run. Topics: Saints' and Other Holy Days The Presentation Languages: English Tune Title: BRISTOL

Down from the Worlds of Radiant Light
Author: Joseph Proud, 1745-1826 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1249 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Down from the worlds of radiant light
Behold the Savior come,
To ransom souls from endless night
And bring the wanderers home.
2. He calls us to His dear embrace
From misery and despair,
Bids us receive His wondrous grace,
And seek salvation there.
3. We come, Emmanuel, at Thy call,
Believe Thy gladdening Word,
Renounce our sins, ourselves, our all,
And glory in our Lord.
4. Salvation to Messiah’s name
With grateful hearts we sing,
And join our voices to proclaim
Our Savior and our king.
5. Immortal praise to God belongs
For such unfathomed love;
Join, all below, in rapturous songs,
And shout, ye hosts above. Languages: English Tune Title: BRISTOL (Ravenscroft)
Down from the Worlds of Radiant Light
While others crowd the house of mirth
Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #R14 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 While others crowd the house of mirth,
and haunt the gaudy show,
let such as would with Wisdom dwell,
frequent the house of woe.
2 Better to weep with those who weep,
and share th’ afflicted’s smart,
than mix with fools in giddy joys
that cheat and wound the heart.
3 When virtuous sorrow clouds the face,
and tears bedim the eye,
the soul is led to solemn thought,
and wafted to the Sky.
4 The wise in heart revisit oft
grief’s dark sequester'd cell;
the thoughtless still with levity
and mirth delight to dwell.
5 The noisy laughter of the fool
is like the crackling sound
of blazing thorns, which quickly fall
in ashes to The ground.
Scripture: Ecclesiastes 6:2-6 Languages: English Tune Title: BRISTOL
While others crowd the house of mirth
