The angel Gabriel from heaven came
Author: Sabine Baring-Gould, 1834-1924 Hymnal: EH1982 #265 (1985) Meter: 10.10.12.10 Tune Title: GABRIEL'S MESSAGE Lyrics: 1. The angel Gabriel from heaven came,
his wings as drifted snow, his eyes as flame;
"All hail," said he, "thou lowly maiden Mary,
most highly favored lady," Gloria!
2. "For know a blessed Mother thou shalt be,
all generations laud and honor thee,
thy Son shall be Emmanuel, by seers foretold,
most highly favored lady," Gloria!
3. Then gentle Mary meekly bowed her head,
"To me be as it pleaseth God," she said,
"my soul shall laud and magnify his holy Name."
Most highly favored lady, Gloria!
4. Of her, Emmanuel, the Christ, was born
in Bethlehem, all on a Christmas morn,
and Christian folk throughout the world will ever say—
"Most highly favored lady," Gloria! Topics: Holy Days and Various Occasions The Annunciation (March 25) Languages: English

Where cross the crowded ways of life
Author: Frank Mason North, 1850-1935 Hymnal: EH1982 #609 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Title: GARDINER Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life,
where sound the cries of race and clan,
above the noise of selfish strife,
we hear thy voice, O Son of Man.
2 In haunts of wretchedness and need,
on shadowed thresholds dark with fears,
from paths where hide the lures of greed,
we catch the vision of thy tears.
3 The cup of water given for thee
still holds the freshness of thy grace;
yet long these multitudes to see
the true compassion of thy face.
4 O Master, from the mountain side,
make haste to heal these hearts of pain;
among these restless throngs abide,
O tread the city's streets again;
5 till all the world shall learn thy love,
and follow where thy feet have trod;
till glorious from thy heaven above,
shall come the city of our God.

Love came down at Christmas
Author: Christina Rossetti, 1830-1894 Hymnal: EH1982 #84 (1985) Meter: 6.7.6.7 Tune Title: GARTAN Lyrics: 1 Love came down at Christmas,
love all lovely, love divine;
love was born at Christmas:
star and angels gave the sign.
2 Worship we the Godhead,
love incarnate, love divine;
worship we our Jesus,
but wherewith for sacred sign?
3 Love shall be our token;
love be yours and love be mine;
love to God and neighbor,
love for plea and gift and sign. Languages: English
Love came down at Christmas
Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
Author: John of Damascus, 8th cent.; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: EH1982 #200 (1985) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Tune Title: GAUDEAMUS PARITER Lyrics: 1. Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness!
God hath brought his Israel
into joy from sadness:
loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters,
led them with unmoistened foot
through the Red Sea waters.
2. 'Tis the spring of souls today:
Christ hath burst his prison,
and from three days' sleep in death
as a sun hath risen;
all the winter of our sins,
long and dark, is flying
from his light, to whom we give
laud and praise undying.
3. Now the queen of seasons, bright
with the day of splendor,
with the royal feast of feasts,
comes its joy to render;
comes to glad Jerusalem,
who with true affection
welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4. Neither might the gates of death,
nor the tomb's dark portal,
nor the watchers, nor the seal
hold thee as a mortal:
but today amidst thine own
thou didst stand, bestowing
that thy peace which evermore
passeth human knowing.

Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
Let us now our voices raise
Author: Joseph the Hymnographer, 9th cent.; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: EH1982 #237 (1985) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Tune Title: GAUDEAMUS PARITER Lyrics: 1. Let us now our voices raise,
wake the day with gladness;
God himself to joy and praise
turns our human sadness;
joy that martyrs won their crown,
opened heaven's bright portal,
when they laid the mortal down
for the life immortal.
2. Never flinched they from the flame,
from the torture never;
vain the tyrant's sharpest aim,
vain each fierce endeavor:
for by faith they saw the land
decked in all its glory,
where triumphant now they stand
with the victor's story.
3. Up and follow, Christians all:
press through toil and sorrow;
turn from fear, and heed the call
to a glorious morrow!
Who will venture on the strife;
who will first begin it?
Who will grasp the land of Life?
Christians, up and win it! Topics: Holy Days and Various Occasions Martyrs Languages: English

Author: George Herbert, 1593-1633 Hymnal: EH1982 #382 (1985) Meter: 7.4.7.4 D Tune Title: GENERAL SEMINARY Lyrics: 1 King of glory, King of peace,
I will love thee;
and that love may never cease,
I will move thee.
Thou hast granted my request,
thou hast heard me;
thou didst note my working breast,
thou hast spared me.
2 Wherefore with my utmost art
I will sing thee;
and the cream of all my heart,
I will bring thee.
Though my sins against me cried,
thou didst clear me;
and alone, when they replied,
thou didst hear me.
3 Seven whole days, not one in seven,
I will praise thee;
in my heart, though not in heaven,
I can raise thee.
Small it is in this poor sort
to enroll thee;
e'en eternity's too short
to extol thee. Topics: Praise to God Languages: English

Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1676; John Christian Jacobi, 1670-1750 Hymnal: EH1982 #515 (1985) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Tune Title: GENEVA Lyrics: 1 Holy Ghost, dispel our sadness;
pierce the clouds of nature's night;
come, thou source of joy and gladness,
breathe thy life, and spread thy light.
From the height which knows no measure,
as a gracious shower descend,
bringing down the richest treasure
we can wish, or God can send.
2 Author of the new creation,
come with unction and with power.
Make our hearts thy habitation;

blessed Spirit, God of peace!
Rest upon this congregation,
with the fullness of thy grace. Topics: The Holy Spirit Languages: English

They cast their nets in Galilee
Author: William Alexander Percy, 1885-1942 Hymnal: EH1982 #661 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: GEORGETOWN Lyrics: 1 They cast their nets in Galilee
just off the hills of brown;
such happy, simple fisher-folk,
before the Lord came down.
2 Contented, peaceful fishermen,
before they ever knew
the peace of God that filled their hearts
brimful, and broke them too.
3 Young John who trimmed the flapping sail,
homeless, in Patmos died.
Peter, who hauled the teeming net,
head-down was crucified.
4 The peace of God, it is no peace,
but strife closed in the sod.
Yet let us pray for but one thing-
the marvelous peace of God. Topics: The Christian Life Languages: English

Praise to the Holiest in the height
Author: John Henry Newman, 1801-1890 Hymnal: EH1982 #445 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: GERONTIUS Lyrics: 1 Praise to the Holiest in the height,
and in the depth be praise;
in all his words most wonderful,
most sure in all his ways!
2 O loving wisdom of our God!
When all was sin and shame,
a second Adam to the fight
and to the rescue came.
3 O wisest love! that flesh and blood,
which did in Adam fail,
should strive afresh against the foe,
should strive, and should prevail;
4 and that the highest gift of grace
should flesh and blood refine:
God's presence and his very self,
and essence all-divine.
5 Praise to the Holiest in the height,
and in the depth be praise;
in all his words most wonderful,
most sure in all his ways!
