O wondrous type, O vision fair
Author: John Mason Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #147a (1958) Lyrics: 1 O wondrous type, O vision fair
Of glory that the Church shall share,
Which Christ upon the mountain shows,
Where brighter than the sun he glows!
2 With shining face and bright array,
Christ deigns to manifest today
What glory shall be theirs above,
Who joy in God with perfect love. A-men.
3 And faithful hearts are raised on high
By this great vision's mystery,
For which in joyful strains we raise
The voice of prayer, the hymn of praise.
4 O Father, with the eternal Son
And Holy Spirit ever One,
Vouchsafe to bring us by thy grace
To see thy glory face to face.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Saints' Days - Minor Festivals Languages: English Tune Title: CONDITOR ALME SIDERUM

O wondrous type, O vision fair
O worship the King, all glorious above
Author: Robert Grant, 1779 - 1838 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #163 (1958) Lyrics: 1 O worship the King, all glorious above,
O gratefully sing his wonderful love;
Our shield and defender, the Ancient of Days,
Pavilioned in splendor, and girded with praise.
2 O tell of his might, O sing of his grace,
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space;
His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form,
And dark is his path on the wings of the storm.
3 The earth with its store of wonders untold,
Almighty, thy power hath founded of old;
Hath stablished it fast by a changeless decree,
And round it hath cast, like a mantle, the sea.
4 Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light;
It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
And sweetly distils in the dew and the rain.
5 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
In thee do we trust, nor find thee to fail;
Thy mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend.
6 O measureless Might, ineffable Love,
While angels delight to hymn thee above,
The humbler creation, though feeble their lays,
With true adoration shall sing to thy praise. Topics: The Church Year Epiphany; The Church Year Trinity Sunday - The Holy Trinity; The Life In Christ Adoration and Praise; The Church Worship - In The Presence Scripture: Psalm 104 Languages: English Tune Title: HANOVER

Author: Robert Bridges, 1844 - 1930; St. Ambrose, 340 - 97 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #206a (1958) Lyrics: 1 O Splendor of God's glory bright,
O thou who bringest light from Light,
O Light of light, light's living spring,
O Day, all days illumining!
2 O thou true Sun, on us thy glance
Let fall in royal radiance;
The Spirit’s sanctifying beam
Upon our earthly senses stream.
3 The Father, too, our prayers implore,
Father of glory evermore,
The Father of all grace and might,
To banish sin from our delight. A-men.
4 To guide whate’er we nobly do,
With love all envy to subdue,
To make ill-fortune turn to fair,
And give us grace our wrongs to bear.
5 Rejoicing may this day go hence;
Like virgin dawn our innocence,
Like fiery noon our faith appear,
Nor known the gloom of twilight drear.
6 Morn in her rosy car is borne;
Let him come forth, our perfect morn,
The Word in God the Father one,
The Father perfect in the Son.
7 All laud to God the Father be;
All praise, eternal Son, to thee;
All glory, as is ever meet,
To God the holy Paraclete.

O gladsome light, O grace
O Word of God incarnate
Author: William Walsham How, 1823 - 97 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #252 (1958) Lyrics: 1 O Word of God incarnate,
O Wisdom from on high,
O Truth unchanged, unchanging,
O Light of our dark sky;
We praise thee for the radiance
That from the hallowed page,
A lantern to our footsteps,
Shines on from age to age.
2 The Church from her dear Master
Received the gift divine,
And still that light she lifteth
O'er all the earth to shine.
It is the golden casket
Where gems of truth are stored;
It is the heaven-drawn picture
Of Christ, the living Word. A-men.
3 It floateth like a banner
Before God's host unfurled;
It shineth like a beacon
Above the darkling world;
It is the chart and compass
That o'er life's surging sea,
'Mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
Still guides, O Christ, to thee.
4 O make thy Church, dear Saviour,
A lamp of burnished gold,
To bear before the nations
Thy true light, as of old;
O teach thy wandering pilgrims
By this their path to trace,
Till, clouds and darkness ended,
They see thee face to face.

The souls that hunger feed thou,
The hearts that seek thee lead thou,
With thy most sweet and tender love.

O river ever streaming
From Jesus’ holy side!
Come thou, thyself bestowing
On thirsting souls, and flowing
Till all are fully satisfied. A-men.

We here adore thee, hidden
'Neath forms of bread and wine;
Grant, when the veil is riven,
We may behold in heaven
Thy glorious countenance divine.

Lowly we kneel in prayer before thy throne,
That theirs may be the love which knows no ending,
Whom thou for evermore dost join in one.

Of tender charity and steadfast faith,
Of patient hope, and quiet, brave endurance,
With child-like trust that fears no pain nor death. A-men.

Grant them the peace which calms all earthly strife,
And to life's day the glorious unknown morrow
That dawns upon eternal love and life.
