Bethlehem Song

Author: Nahum Tate Hymnal: Laudes Domini #183 (1888) Publication Date: 1888 First Line: While shepherds watched their flocks by night Lyrics: 1 While shepherds watched their flocks by night, All seated on the ground; The angel of the Lord came down, And glory shone around. "Fear not," said he,--for mighty dread Had seized their troubled mind,-- "Glad tidings of great joy I bring, To you and all mankind. 2 "To you, in David's town this day, Is born of David's line, The Saviour, who is Christ, the Lord, And this shall be the sign;-- The heavenly babe you there shall find To human view displayed, All meanly wrapped in swathing bands, And in a manger laid." 3 Thus spake the seraph--and forthwith Appeared a shining throng Of angels, praising God, who thus Addressed their joyful song:-- "All glory be to God on high, And to the earth be peace; Good-will henceforth from heaven to men Begin, and never cease!"

Angels' music

Author: Edwin H. Sears Hymnal: Laudes Domini #184 (1888) Publication Date: 1888 First Line: Calm on the listening ear of night Lyrics: 1 Calm on the listening ear of night, Come heaven's melodious strains, Where wild Judea stretches far Her silver-mantled plains. Celestial choirs, from courts above, Shed sacred glories there, And angels, with their sparkling lyres, Make music on the air. 2 The answering hills of Palestine Send back the glad reply, And greet from all their holy heights The Dayspring from on high: O'er the blue depths of Galilee There comes a holier calm; And Sharon waves in solemn praise Her silent groves of palm. 3 "Glory to God!" the lofty strain The realms of ether fills; How sweeps the song of solemn joy O'er Judah's sacred hills! "Glory to God!" the sounding skies Loud with their anthems ring: "Peace on the earth; good-will to men, From heaven's eternal King."

My Father

Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: Laudes Domini #125 (1890) Publication Date: 1890 First Line: O God, thy power is wonderful Lyrics: 1 O God, thy power is wonderful, Thy glory passing bright; Thy wisdom, with its deep on deep, A rapture to the sight. I see thee in the eternal years In glory all alone, Ere round thine uncreated fires Created light had shone. 2 I see thee walk in Eden's shade, I see thee all through time; Thy patience and compassion seem New attributes sublime. I see thee when the doom is o'er, And outworn time is done, Still, still incomprehensible, O God, yet not alone. 3 Angelic spirits, countless souls, Of thee have drunk their fill; And to eternity will drink Thy joy and glory still. O little heart of mine! shall pain Or sorrow make thee moan, When all this God is all for thee, A Father all thine own?

My Shepherd will supply my need

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #127 (1890) Publication Date: 1890 Lyrics: 1 My Shepherd will supply my need, Jehovah is his name; In pastures fresh he makes me feed, Beside the living stream. He brings my wandering spirit back, When I forsake his ways; And leads me, for his mercy's sake, In paths of truth and grace. 2 When I walk through the shades of death, Thy presence is my stay; A word of thy supporting breath, Drives all my fears away. Thy hand, in sight of all my foes, Doth still my table spread; My cup with blessings overflows, Thine oil anoints my head. 3 The sure provisions of my God Attend me all my days; Oh, may thy house be mine abode, And all my works be praise: There would I find a settled rest, While others go and come, NO more a stranger, or a guest, But like a child at home.

Father! how wide thy glory shines!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #128 (1890) Publication Date: 1890 Lyrics: 1 Father! how wide thy glory shines! How high thy wonders rise! Known through the earth by thousand signs, By thousand through the skies. 2 Those mighty orbs proclaim thy power, Their motions speak thy skill; And on the wings of every hour, We read thy patience still. 3 But, when we view thy strange design To save rebellious worms, Where vengeance and compassion join In their divinest forms, 4 Here the whole Deity is known; Nor dares a creature guess Which of the glories brightest shone, The justice, or the grace. 5 Now the full glories of the Lamb Adorn the heavenly plains; Bright seraphs learn Immanuel's name, And try their choicest strains. 6 Oh, may I bear some humble part, In that immortal song; Wonder and joy shall tune my heart, And love command my tongue.
