Ye Holy Angels Bright
Author: Richard Baxter (1615-1691) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 114 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:1-9 Lyrics: 1 Ye holy angels bright,
who wait at God's right hand,
or through the realms of light
fly at your Lord's command,
assist our song,
for else the theme
too high doth seem
for mortal tongue.
2 Ye blessed souls at rest,
who ran this earthly race
and now, from sin released,
behold the Saviour's face,
your praises sound,
as in God's sight
with sweet delight
ye do abound.
3 Ye saints, who toil below,
adore your heavenly King,
and onward as ye go
some joyful anthem sing;
in God rejoice,
and thus proclaim
the holy name
with sounding voice.
4 My soul, bear thou thy part,
triumph in God above,
and with a well-tuned heart
sing thou the songs of love!
Let all thy days
till life shall end,
whate'er God send,
be filled with praise. Topics: Angels; Communion of Saints; Funeral; Michael, the Archangel; Praise of God Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148TH

I Bind unto Myself Today
Author: Patrick of Ireland (389?-461?); Cecil Frances Alexander (1818-1895) Meter: Irregular Appears in 68 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:1-9 Lyrics: 1 I bind unto myself today
the strong name of the Trinity,
by invocation of the same,
the Three-in-One, and One-in-Three.
2 I bind this day to me for ever,
by power of faith, Christ's incarnation,
his baptism in the Jordan river,
his death on cross for my salvation.
His bursting from the spiced tomb,
his riding up the heavenly way,
his coming at the day of doom,
I bind unto myself today.
3 I bind unto myself today
the virtues of the starlit heaven,
the glorious sun's life-giving ray,
the whiteness of the moon at even,
the flashing of the lightning free,
the whirling wind's tempestuous shocks,
the stable earth, the deep salt sea,
around the old eternal rocks.
4 I bind unto myself today
the power of God to hold and lead,
his eye to watch, his might to stay,
his ear to hearken to my need,
the wisdom of my God to teach,
his hand to guide, his shield to ward;
the word of God to give me speech,
his heavenly host to be my guard.
5 Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me,
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.
6 I bind unto myself the name,
the strong name of the Trinity,
by invocation of the same,
the Three-in-One, and One-in-Three.
of whom all nature hath creation,
eternal Father, Spirit, Word.
Praise to the Lord of my salvation,
salvation is of Christ the Lord. Topics: Call and Vocation; Covenant; Ordination; Trinity Used With Tune: ST. PATRICK'S BREASTPLATE

O Christ, Our Hope, Our Heart's Desire
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 56 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:29-31 Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our Hope, our heart's Desire,
Maker and God of all,
The Word in latter days made flesh,
Redeemer from the fall!
2 How vast the mercy and the love
Which laid our sins on Thee,
And led Thee to a cruel death,
To set Thy people free!
3 But now the bands of death are burst,
The ransom has been paid;
And Thou art on Thy Father's throne,
In glorious robes arrayed.
4 O may Thy mighty love prevail
Our sinful souls to spare!
O may we come before Thy throne,
And fine acceptance there!
5 O Christ, be Thou our present Joy,
Our future great Reward;
Our only glory may it be
To glory in the Lord!
Amen.
