The Ministry of Angels
Author: Dr. S. Stennett Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCCVII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: A Selection of Hymns Topics: Angels Ministering to Christians; Christian Ministered to by Angels First Line: Great God, what hosts of angels stand Lyrics: 1 Great God, what hosts of angels stand
In shining ranks at thy right hand,
Array'd in robes of dazzling light,
With pinions stretch'd for distant flight!
2 Immortal fires! seraphic flames!
Who can recount their various names?
In strength and beauty they excell,
For near the throne of God they dwell.
3 How eagerly they wish to know
The duties he would have them do.
What joy their active spirits feel,
To execute their sovereign's will!
4 Hither, at his command they fly,
To guard the beds on which we lie;
To shield our persons, night and day,
And scatter all our fears away.
5 [Against the holy Syrian band
Around the helpless prophet stand,
While mighty Gabriel downward flies,
And with his chariots fills the skies.
6 Herod attempts, but all in vain,
To bind a Peter with his chain:
At one soft word an angel speaks,
And massy chain asunder breaks.]
7 Send, O my God, some angel down,
(Tho' to a mortal eye unknown)
To guide and guard my doubtless way,
Up to the realms of endless day.

Author: J. C. W. Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CXXX (1792) Hymnal Title: A Selection of Hymns Topics: Angels song at the birth of Christ; Song of the angel's at Christ's birth First Line: Hark, the herald angels sing Lyrics: 1 Hark, the herald angels sing,
“Glory to the new-born king;
"Peace on earth, and mercy mild;
"God and sinners reconcil'd,"
2 Joyful, all ye nations, rise,
Join the triumphs of the skies,
Hail the heaven-born prince of peace!
Hail the sun of righteousness!
3 [Mild he lays his glory by,
Born, that man no more might die:
Born, to raise the sons of earth,
Born, to give them second birth.]
4 Come, desire of nations, come,
Fix in us thy humble home;
Raise the woman's promis'd seed,
Bruise in us the serpent's head.
5 Glory to the new-born King,
Let us all the anthem sing,
"Peace on earth, and mercy mild,
"God and sinners reconcil'd!" Languages: English
The Song of the Angels
Messenger of the covenant
Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CLXXXIV (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: A Selection of Hymns Topics: Christ Angel of the covenant First Line: Jesus, commission'd from above Lyrics: 1 Jesus, commission'd from above,
Descends to men below,
And shews from whence the springs of love,
In endless currents flow.
2 He, whom the boundless heaven adores,
Whom angels long to see;
Quitted with joy those blissful shores,
Ambassador to me!
3 To me a worm, a sinful clod,
A rebel all forlorn;
A foe, a traitor to my God,
And, of a traitor born;
4 To me, who never sought his grace,
Who mock'd his sacred word;
Who never knew, or lov'd his face,
And all his will abhor'd!
5 To me, who could not even praise,
When his kind heart I knew;
But sought a thousand devious ways,
Rather than keep the true.
6 Yet this redeeming angel came,
So vile a worm to bless;
He took, with gladness, all my blame,
And gave his righteousness.
7 O! that my languid heart might glow,
With ardour all divine;
And for more love than seraphs knew,
Like burning seraphs shine. Scripture: Malachi 3:1 Languages: English
Messenger of the covenant
The Incarnation of Christ
Author: Medley Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CXXIX (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: A Selection of Hymns Topics: Angels song at the birth of Christ; Song of the angel's at Christ's birth First Line: Mortals, awake, with angels join Lyrics: 1 Mortals awake, with angels join,
And chaunt the solemn lay;
Joy, love and gratitude combine
To hail th' auspicious day.
2 In heaven the rapturous song began,
And sweet seraphic fire
Thro' all the shining legions ran,
And strung and tun'd the lyre.
3 Swift thro' the vast expanse it flew,
And loud the echo roll'd;
The theme, the song, the joy, was new,
'Twas more than heaven could hold,
4 Down thro' the portals of the sky
Th' impetuous torrent ran;
And angels flew with eager joy
To bear the news to man.
5 [Wrapt in the silence of the night
Lay all the eastern world,
When bursting, glorious, heavenly light
The wond'rous scene unfurl'd.]
6 Hark! the cherubic armies shout:
And glory leads the song:
Good-will and peace are heard throughout
Th' harmonious heavenly throng.
7 [O for a glance of heavenly love
Our hearts and songs to raise;
Sweetly to bear our souls above
And mingle with their lays!]
8 With joy the chorus we'll repeat
"Glory to God on high:
"Good-will and peace are now complete,
"Jesus was born to die."
9 Hail, prince of life, for ever hail!
Redeemer, brother, friend!
Tho' earth, and time, and life should fail,
Thy praise shall never end. Scripture: Luke 2:14 Languages: English
The Incarnation of Christ
Jesus seen of angels
Author: Dr. Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CXLVI (1792) Hymnal Title: A Selection of Hymns Topics: Angels Ministering to Christ First Line: O ye immortal throng Lyrics: 1 O ye immortal throng
Of angels round the throne,
Join with our feeble song
To make the Savior known:
On earth ye knew
His wondrous grace,
His beautious face
In heaven ye view.
2 Ye saw the heaven-born child
In human flesh array'd,
Benevolent and mild,
While in the manger laid:
And praise to God,
And peace on earth,
For such a birth,
Proclaim'd aloud.
3 Ye in the wilderness
Behold the tempter's spoil'd,
Well known in every dress,
In every combat foil'd;
And joy'd to crown
The victor's head,
When satan fled
Before his frown.
4 Around the bloody tree
Ye press'd with strong desire
That wondrous sight to see,
The Lord of life expire;
And, could your eyes
Have known a tear,
Had dropp'd it there
In sad surprise.
5 Around His sacred tomb
A willing watch ye keep;
Till the blest moment come
To rouse Him from His sleep:
Then roll'd the stone,
And all ador'd
Your rising Lord
With joy unknown.
6 When all array'd in Light,
The shining Conqueror rode,
Ye haile'd his rapturous flight
Up to the throne of God;
And wav'd around
Your golden wings,
And struck your strings
Of sweetest sound.
7 The warbling notes pursue,
And louder anthems raise;
While mortals sing with you
Their own redeemer's praise:
And thou, my heart,
With equal flame,
And joy the same,
Perform thy part.
Scripture: 1 Timothy 3:16 Languages: English

A dying Savior
Author: Steele Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CXXXVII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: A Selection of Hymns Topics: Angels The fallen passed by First Line: Stretch'd on the cross the Savior dies Lyrics: 1 Stretch'd on the cross the Savior dies,
Hark! his expiring groans arise:
See, from his hands, his feet, his side,
Runs down the sacred crimson tide.
2 But life attends the deathful sound,
And flows from every bleeding wound;
The vital stream, how free it flows,
To save and cleanse his rebel foes.
3 To suffer in the traitor's place,
To die for man, surprising grace!
Yet pass rebellious angels by—
O why for man, dear Savior, why?
4 And didst thou bleed, for sinners bleed?
And could the sun behold the deed?
No, he withdrew his sickening ray,
And darkness veil'd the mourning day.
5 Can I survey this scene of woe,
Where mingling grief and wonder flow;
And yet my heart unmov'd remain,
Insensible to love or pain?
6 Come, dearest Lord, thy grace impart,
To warm this cold, this stupid heart;
'Till all its powers and passions move,
In melting grief, and ardent love. Languages: English
A dying Savior
Comfort to such who seek a risen Jesus
Author: Dr. Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CXLIV (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: A Selection of Hymns Topics: Angels Reply to the women that sought Christ First Line: Ye humble souls, that seek the Lord Lyrics: 1 Ye humble souls, that seek the Lord,
Chase all your fears away:
And bow with pleasure down to see
The place where Jesus lay.
2 Thus low the Lord of life was brought:
Such wonders love can do:
Thus cold in death that bosom lay,
Which throbb'd and bled for you.
3 A moment give a loose to grief,
Let grateful sorrows rise;
And wash the bloody stains away,
With torrents from your eyes.
4 Then dry your tears, and tune your songs,
The Savior lives again;
Not all the bolts and bars of death
The Conqueror could detain.
5 High o'er th' angelic bands he rears
His once dishonor'd head;
And thro' unnumber'd years he reigns,
Who dwelt among the dead.
6 With joy like his shall every saint
His empty tomb survey;
Then rise, with his ascending Lord,
To realms of endless day. Languages: English
Comfort to such who seek a risen Jesus
