Faith of Our Fathers
Come, ye faithful, raise the anthem
Author: Job Hupton, 1762-1849; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 81 hymnals Topics: Year C Proper 5 Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the anthem,
cleave the skies with shouts of praise;
sing to him who found the ransom,
Ancient of eternal days,
God of God, the Word incarnate,
whom the heav'n of heav'n obeys.
2 Ere he raised the lofty mountains,
formed the seas, or built the sky,
love eternal, free and boundless,
moved the Lord of life to die,
fore-ordained the Prince of princes
for the throne of Calvary.
3 There, for us and our redemption,
see him all his life-blood pour!
There he wins our full salvation,
dies that we may die no more;
then arising, lives for ever,
reigning where he was before.
4 High on yon celestial mountains
stands his sapphire throne, all bright,
midst unending alleluias
bursting from the saints in light;
Sion's people tell his praises,
victor after hard-won fight.
5 Bring your harps, and bring your incense,
sweep the string and pour the lay;
let the earth proclaim his wonders,
King of that celestial day;
he the Lamb once slain is worthy,
who was dead, and lives for ay.
6 Laud and honour to the Father,
laud and honour to the Son,
laud and honour to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One,
consubstantial, co-eternal,
while unending ages run. Scripture: Daniel 7:9 Used With Tune: NEANDER (UNSER HERRSCHER)

Come, Let Us to the God of Love
Author: John Morison Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 108 hymnals Topics: Proper 5 Year A Lyrics: 1 Come, let us to the God of love
with contrite hearts return:
our God is gracious, nor will leave
the desolate to mourn.
2 God's voice commands the tempest forth,
and stills the stormy wave;
and though God's arm be strong to smite,
'tis also strong to save.
3 Long has the night of sorrow reigned;
the dawn shall bring us light;
God shall appear, and we shall rise
with gladness at that sight.
4 As dew upon the tender herb
diffusing fragrance round,
as showers that usher in the spring
and cheer the thirsty ground,
5 so shall God's presence bless our souls
and shed a joyful light;
that hallowed morn shall chase away
the sorrows of the night. Used With Tune: BELMONT Text Sources: in Scottish Paraphrases, 1781

Yigdal elohim chai v'yishtabach,
nimtza v'ein eit el m'tziuto
Echad v'ein yachid k'yichudo,
nelam v'gai ein sof l'achduto.
1 The God of Abraham praise,
all praises to God's name,
who was and is and is to be,
fore'er the same!
The one eternal God,
before what now appears;
the First, the Last:
beyond all thought
through timeless years!
2 God's spirit freely flows,
high surging where it will;
God spoke of old in prophet's word;
that word speaks still.
Established is God's law,
and changeless it shall stand
deep written on the human heart,
in every land.
3 God has eternal life
implanted in the soul;
God's love shall be
our strength and stay,
while ages roll.
All praise the living God!
Extol that hallowed name,
who was, and is, and ever shall
be still the same!
4 The God of Sarah praise,
all praises to God's name,
who was and is and is to be,
fore'er the same!
The one eternal God,
before what now appears;
the First, the Last: beyond all thought
through timeless years!

a bulwark never failing;
our helper sure amid the flood
of mortal ills prevailing:
for still our ancient foe
doth seek to work us woe;
power and malice great,
and armed with cruel hate,
on earth he has no equal.
2 Did we in our strength confide,
our striving would be losing,
were not the right man on our side,
the man of God's own choosing:
dost ask who that may be?
Christ Jesus, it is he;
Lord Sabaoth his name,
from age to age the same,
and he must win the battle.
3 And though this world, with devils filled,
should threaten to undo us,
we will not fear, for God hath willed
the truth to triumph through us:
the prince of darkness grim,
we tremble not for him;
his rage we can endure,
for lo! his doom is sure,
one little word shall fell him.
4 That word above all earthly powers,
no thanks to them, abideth;
the Spirit and the gifts are ours
through Christ, who with us sideth:
let goods and kindred go,
this mortal life also;
the body they may kill:
God's truth abideth still,
God's kingdom is forever. Used With Tune: EIN' FESTE BURG

is crowned with glory now;
a royal diadem adorns
the mighty victor’s brow.

the joy of all below,
to whom he manifests his love
and grants his name to know.
3 To them the cross with all its shame,
with all its grace is given,
their name an everlasting name,
their joy the joy of heaven.
4 They suffer here with Christ below,
they reign with him above,
their profit and their joy to know
the mystery of his love.
5 The cross he bore is life and health,
though shame and death to him,
his people's hope, his people's wealth,
their everlasting theme. Used With Tune: ST MAGNUS
