O Sing a Song of Bethlehem

Author: Louis F. Benson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5327 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. O sing a song of Bethlehem, of shepherds watching there, And of the news that came to them from angels in the air. The light that shone on Bethlehem fills all the world today; Of Jesus’ birth and peace on earth the angels sing alway. 2. O sing a song of Nazareth, of sunny days of joy; O sing of fragrant flowers’ breath, and of the sinless Boy. For now the flowers of Nazareth in every heart may grow; Now spreads the fame of His dear name on all the winds that blow. 3. O sing a song of Galilee, of lake and woods and hill, Of Him who walked upon the sea and bade the waves be still. For though like waves on Galilee, dark seas of trouble roll, When faith has heard the Master’s Word, falls peace upon the soul. 4. O sing a song of Calvary, its glory and dismay, Of Him who hung upon the tree, and took our sins away. For He who died on Calvary is risen from the grave, And Christ, our Lord, by Heaven adored, is mighty now to save. Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD

For Zion's Sake I Will Not Rest

Author: John Quarles, 1624-1665 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10005 Lyrics: 1 For Zion’s sake I will not rest I will not hold my peace Until Jerusalem be blest And Judah dwell at ease; 2 Until her righteousness return As daybreak after night— The lamp of her salvation burn With everlasting light. 3 The Gentiles shall her glory see, And kings declare her fame; Appointed unto her shall be A new and holy name. 4 The watchmen on her walls appear, And day and night proclaim, "Zion’s deliverer is near;" Make mention of His name. 5 The Lord upholds her with His hand, And claims her for His own— The diadem of Judah’s land The glory of His crown. 6 Go through, go through, prepare the way, The gates wide open fling; With loudest voice let heralds say, "Behold thy coming king!"

Hymn For the Twenty-Second Of December

Author: John Q. Adams, 1767-1848 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12411 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: When o’er the billow-heaving deep Lyrics: 1 When o’er the billow-heaving deep, The fathers of our race, The precepts of their God to keep, Sought here their resting-place— That gracious God their path prepared, Preserved from every harm, And still for their protection bared His everlasting arm. 2 His breath, inspiring every gale, Impels them o’er the main; His guardian angels spread the sail, And tempests howl in vain. For them old ocean’s rocks are smoothed; December’s face grows mild; To vernal airs her blasts are soothed, And all their rage beguiled. 3 When Famine rolls her haggard eyes, His ever-bounteous hand Abundance from the sea supplies, And treasures from the sand. Nor yet His tender mercies cease; His overruling plan Inclines to gentleness and peace The heart of savage man. 4 And can our stony bosoms be To all these wonders blind? Nor swell with thankfulness to Thee, O Parent of mankind? All-gracious God, inflame our zeal; Dispense one blessing more; Grant us Thy boundless love to feel, Thy goodness to adore.

A Prayer In Time Of War

Author: Alfred Noyes Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12491 First Line: Thou whose deep ways are in the sea Lyrics: 1 Thou whose deep ways are in the sea, Whose footsteps are not known, Tonight a world that turned from Thee Is waiting—at Thy throne. The towering Babels that we raised Where scoffing sophists brawl, The little Antichrists we praised— The night is on them all. 2 The fool hath said…the fool hath said… And we, who deemed him wise, We, who believed that Thou wast dead, How should we seek Thine eyes? How should we seek to Thee for power, Who scorned Thee yesterday? How should we kneel in this dread hour? Lord, teach us how to pray. 3 Grant us the single heart once more That mocks no sacred thing, The sword of truth our fathers wore When Thou wast Lord and King. Let darkness unto darkness tell Our deep unspoken prayer; For, while our souls in darkness dwell We know that Thou art there. Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD

How Gracious Are Thy Mercies, Lord

Author: Sybil Leonard Armes Hymnal: Christian Praise #19 (1964) Lyrics: 1 How gracious are Thy mercies, Lord, They hallow all my days; Thy gifts of tenderness and love Inspire my heart to praise. The growing miracle of faith Assures me I am Thine. Oh, praise thy name that I can share This fellowship divine! 2 How lovely are Thy mercies, Lord, The earth, the sky and sea, For all things good and beautiful I offer praise to Thee. For clouds by day and stars by night, For blossoms frail and fair, For all thy glorious handiwork My heart is moved to prayer. 3 How tender are Thy mercies, Lord, Thy grace when days are long, And in the lonely midnight hour Thy precious gift of song. When I approach the gates of death And life is at an end, Thy presence will sustain me still, My Saviour and my Friend. Amen. Topics: Adoration Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD
