Stand Up and Bless the Lord
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Worshiping Church #41 (1990) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Year Written: 182 Lyrics: 1 Stand up and bless the Lord,
you people of His choice,
stand up and bless the Lord your God
with heart and soul and voice.
2 Though high above all praise,
above all blessing high,
who would not fear His holy name,
give thanks and glorify?
3 God is our strength and song,
and his salvation ours;
then be his love in Christ proclaimed
with all our ransomed powers.
4 Stand up and bless the Lord,
the Lord your God adore;
stand up and bless his glorious name,
both now and evermore.

Shepherd of Tender Youth
Sing, my tongue, the Saviour's battle
Author: Caswall; Venantius Fortunatus Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #98 (1894) Meter: 8.7 Year Written: 575 Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the Saviour's battle,
Tell His triumph far and wide;
Tell aloud the wondrous story
Of His Body crucified;
How upon the cross a victim,
Vanquishing in death, He died.
2 Eating of the tree forbidden,
Man had sunk in Satan's snare,
When our pitying Creator
Did this second tree prepare,
Destined many ages later,
That first evil to repair.
3 So, when now at length the fullness
Of the time foretold drew nigh,
God the Son, the world's Creator,
Let His Father's throne on high,
From the Virgin's womb appearing
Clothed in our humanity.
4 Thus did Christ to perfect manhood
In our mortal flesh attain;
Then of His free choice He goeth
To a death of bitter pain;
He, the Lamb upon the altar
Of the cross, for us was slain.
5 Lo, with gall His thirst He quenches,
See the thorns upon His brow;
Nails His tender flesh are rending;
See, His side is piercèd now;
Whence, to cleanse the whole creation,
Streams of blood and water flow.
6 Christ, to Thee with God the Father,
And, O Holy Ghost, to Thee,
Hymn and chant and high thanksgiving,
And unwearied praises be;
Honor, glory, and dominion,
And eternal victory.
Amen.

Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright
Author: St. Joseph the Hymnographer; John Mason Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal #289 (1916) Year Written: 850 Lyrics:
Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright,
Filled with celestial splendor and light,
These that, where night never followeth day,
Raise the "Thrice Holy" song ever and aye:
These are thy ministers, these dost thou own,
God of Sabaoth, the nearest thy throne;
These are thy messengers, these dost thou send,
Help of the helpless ones! man to defend.
These keep the guard amid Salem's dear bowers,
Thrones, principalities, virtues, and powers,
Where, with the living ones, mystical Four,
Cherubim, seraphim bow and adore.
Still let them succor us; still let them fight,
Lord of angelic hosts, battling for right;
Till, where their anthems they ceaselessly pour,
We with the angels may bow and adore.
Amen.

1 Savior of the nations, come;
Virgin's Son, here make Your home.
Marvel now, O heaven and earth,
That the Lord chose such a birth.
2 From the Godhead forth You came,
And return unto the same,
Captive leading death and hell.
High the song of triumph swell!
3 You, the chosen Holy One,
Have ov'r sin the victory won.
Boundless shall Your kingdom be;
When shall we its glories see?
4 Brightly does Your manger shine,
Glorious is its light divine.
Let not sin o'ercloud this light;
Ever be our faith thus bright.

Sunk is the sun's last beam of light
Author: Nicolaus Hermann; Frances Elizabeth Cox Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #477 (1917) Year Written: 1560 Lyrics: 1 Sunk is the sun's last beam of light,
And now the world is wrapt in night.
Christ, light us with Thy heavenly ray,
Nor let our feet in darkness stray.
2 Thanks, Lord, that Thou throughout the day
Hast kept all grief and harm away;
That angels tarried round about
Our coming in and going out.
3 Whate'er of wrong we've done or said,
Let not the charge on us be laid;
That through Thy free forgiveness blest,
In peaceful slumber we may rest.
4 Thy guardian angels round us place,
All evil from our couch to chase;
Our soul and body, while we sleep,
In safety, gracious Father, keep.
Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons Evening Languages: English Tune Title: INTERCESSION

Sleepers, Wake!
Author: Philipp Nicolai; Carl P. Daw, Jr. Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #606 (1985) Meter: 8.9.8.8.9.8.6.6.4.8.8 Year Written: 1598 First Line: "Sleepers, wake!" a voice astounds us Lyrics: 1 "Sleepers, wake!" A voice astounds us;
the shout of rampart-guards surrounds us:
"Awake, Jerusalem, arise!"
Midnight's peace their cry has broken,
their urgent summons clearly spoken:
"The time has come, O maidens wise!
Rise up, and give us light;
the Bridegroom is in sight.
Alleluia!
Your lamps prepare and hasten there,
that you the wedding feast may share."
2 Zion hears the nightwatch singing;
her heart with joyful hope is springing,
she wakes and hurries through the night.
Forth he comes, the Bridegroom glorious
in strength of grace, in truth victorious:
her star is risen, her light grows bright.
Now come, most worthy Lord,
God's Son, Incarnate Word,
Alleluia!
We follow all into the hall
to join the wedding estival.
3 Lamb of God, the heavens adore you;
let saints and angels sing before you,
as harps and cymbals swell the sound.
Twelve great pearls, the city's portals:
through them we stream to join th'immortals
as we with joy your throne surround.
No eye has known the sight,
no ear heard such delight:
Alleluia!
Therefore we sing to greet our King;
forever let our praises ring.
