Sons of the Holy One bright with his splendour
Author: F. A. Judd Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #192 (1986) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holy Days: Proper Lyrics: 1 Sons of the Holy One bright with his splendour,
Wakened to life at creation's new day,
First to uplift in the joy of surrender
Spirits to worship and wills to obey.
2 Armies of Michael, a heavenly wonder,
Crashed to the onset with evil on high,
Till the proud angel, o'ercome by their thunder,
Dropped on his darkening wings from the sky.
3 Stars of the morn, for creation returning
Praise to the wisdom ordaining the whole,
Hushed their glad songs, in amazement discerning
God's very likeness in man's living soul.
4 Sentries of Paradise, knew ye no sorrow,
Guarding the way with a flame of the sword?
Visioned ye not on a glorious morrow
Man by a tree to his Eden restored?
5 Gabriel came with his high salutation,
Burning with ardour and eager in flight.
'Ave Maria!' The dawn of salvation
Rose at its music and banished our night.
6 See, then, my soul, on a stairway all golden
Angels ascending, descending again!
Sion is here, if our eyes were not holden,
Praise would not fail for their service to men.
7 Praise God for Michael, in strife our defender,
Praise him for Raphael, our healer and guide,
Praise him for guardians, watchful and tender,
True to their charges in need at their side.
8 Laud to thee, Father of spirits supernal!
We with the angels adore thee, O Son!
Comforter holy, proceeding, eternal,
In thee be glory to God, Three in One. Amen.

Sons of the Holy One bright with his splendour
Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright
Author: J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #193b (1986) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holy Days: Proper Lyrics: 1 Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright,
Filled with celestial resplendence and light,
These that, where night never followeth day,
Raise the Trisagion ever and ay:
2 These are thy counsellors, these dost thou own,
Lord God of Sabaoth, nearest thy throne;
These are thy ministers, these dost thou send,
Help of the helpless ones, man to defend.
3 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.
4 *'Who like the Lord?' thunders Michael the Chief;
Raphael, 'the Cure of God,' comforteth grief;
And, as at Nazareth, prophet of peace,
Gabriel, 'the light of God,' bringeth release.
5 Then, when the earth was first poised in mid space,
Then, when the planets first sped on their race,
Then, when were ended the six days’ employ,
Then all the Sons of God shouted for joy.
6 Still let them succour 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. Tune Title: TRISAGION
Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright
Saviour, who didst healing give
Author: H. D. Rawnsley, 1851-1920 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #194 (1986) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.8.8.8 Topics: The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holy Days: Proper Lyrics: 1 Saviour, who didst healing give,
Still in power go before us;
Thou through death didst bid men live,
Unto fuller life restore us;
Strength from thee the fainting found,
Deaf men heard, the blind went seeing;
At thy touch was banished sickness,
And the leper felt new being.
2 Thou didst work thy deeds of old
Through the loving hands of others;
Still thy mercies manifold
Bless men by the hands of brothers;
Angels still before thy face
Go, sweet health to brothers bringing;
Still, hearts glow to tell his praises
With whose name the Church is ringing.
3 Loved physician! for his word
Lo, the gospel page burns brighter,
Mission servant of the Lord,
Painter true, and perfect writer;
Saviour, of thy bounty send
Such as Luke of gospel story,
Friends to all in body’s prison
Till the sufferers see thy glory.

Who thee by faith before the world confest.
Thy name, O Jesu, be for ever blest.
Alleluya! Alleluya!
2 Thou wast their Rock, their Fortress, and their Might;
Thou, Lord, their Captain in the well fought fight;
Thou in the darkness drear their one true Light.
Alleluya! Alleluya!

Fight as the Saints who nobly fought of old,
And win, with them, the victor's crown of gold.

We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
Yet all are one in thee, for all are thine.

Steals on the ear the distant triumph-song,
And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong.
Alleluya! Alleluya!

Soon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest:
Sweet is the calm of Paradise the blest.
Alleluya! Alleluya!
7 But lo! there breaks a yet more glorious day;
The Saints triumphant rise in bright array:
The King of glory passes on his way.
Alleluya! Alleluya!

Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Alleluya! Alleluya! Languages: English Tune Title: SINE NOMINE

And he that in thy statutes treads
Shall meet thee in the skies. Languages: English Tune Title: EATINGTON

Word supreme, before creation

Born of God eternally
Who didst will for our salvation
To be born on earth, and die;
Well thy saints have kept their station,
Watching till thine hour drew nigh.
2 Now ’tis come, and faith espies thee:
Like an eagle in the morn,
John in steadfast worship eyes thee,
Thy belov'd, thy latest born:
In thy glory he descries thee
Reigning from the tree of scorn.
3 He first hoping and believing
Did beside the grave adore;
Latest he, the warfare leaving,
Landed on the eternal shore;
And his witness we receiving
Own thee Lord for evermore.
4 Much he asked in loving wonder,
On thy bosom leaning, Lord!
In that secret place of thunder,
Answer kind didst thou accord,
Wisdom for thy Church to ponder
Till the day of dread award.
5 Thee, the Almighty King eternal,
Father of the eternal Word;
Thee, the Father’s Word supernal,
Thee, of both, the Breath adored;
Heaven, and earth, and realms infernal
Own, one glorious God and Lord. Amen.
