Hail to the Lord's anointed
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #259 (2000) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Epiphany; Year C Epiphany 3; Years A, B, and C Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's anointed,
great David's greater son!
Hail, in the time appointed,
his reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free;
to take away transgression,
and rule in equity.
2 He comes with succour speedy
to those who suffer wrong;
to help the poor and needy,
and bid the weak be strong;
to give them songs for sighing,
their darkness turn to light,
whose souls, condemned and dying,
were precious in his sight.
3 He shall come down like showers
upon the fruitful earth,
and love, joy, hope, like flowers,
spring in his path to birth:
before him on the mountains
shall peace the herald go;
and righteousness in fountains
from hill to valley flow.
4 Kings shall bow down before him,
and gold and incense bring;
all nations shall adore him,
his praise all people sing:
to him shall prayer unceasing
and daily vows ascend;
his kingdom still increasing,
a kingdom without end.
5 O'er ev'ry foe victorious,
he on his throne shall rest,
from age to age more glorious,
all-blessing and all-blest;
the tide of time shall never
his covenant remove;
his name shall stand for ever,
that name to us is love. Scripture: Psalm 72 Languages: English Tune Title: CRÜGER

Author: William C. Dix, 1837-1898 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Worship #302 (2006) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Epiphany; Epiphany, Time After Epiphany Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old
did the guiding star behold;
as with joy they hailed its light,
leading onward, beaming bright;
so, most gracious Lord, may we
evermore be led by thee.
2 As with joyful steps they sped,
Savior, to thy lowly bed,
there to bend the knee before
thee, whom heav'n and earth adore;
so may we with willing feet
ever seek thy mercy seat.
3 As they offered gifts most rare
at thy cradle, rude and bare,
so may we with holy joy,
pure and free from sin’s alloy,
all our costliest treasures bring,
Christ, to thee, our heavenly King.
4 Holy Jesus, ev'ry day
keep us in the narrow way;
and when earthly things are past,
bring our ransomed souls at last
where they need no star to guide,
where no clouds thy glory hide.
5 In the heav'nly county bright
need they no created light;
thou its light, its joy, its crown,
thou its sun which goes not down;
there forever may we sing
alleluias to our king. Languages: English Tune Title: DIX
As with Gladness Men of Old
Brightest and Best of the Stars
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Worship #303 (2006) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: Epiphany; Epiphany, Time After Epiphany First Line: Brightest and best of the stars of the morning Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the stars of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and lend us your aid.
Star of the east, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant redeemer is laid.
2 Cold on his cradle the dew-drops are shining;
low lies his head with the beasts of the stall;
angels adore him in slumber reclining,
maker and monarch and savior of all.
3 What shall we give him, in costly devotion?
Shall we bring incense and off'rings divine,
gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,
myrrh from the forest or gold from the mine?
4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
vainly with gifts would his favor secure;
richer by far is the heart's adoration,
dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.
5 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and lend us your aid.
Star of the east, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant redeemer is laid. Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING STAR
Brightest and Best of the Stars

When Jesus Came to Jordan
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Worship #305 (2006) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Time After Epiphany; Epiphany, Time After Epiphany Lyrics: 1 When Jesus came to Jordan
to be baptized by John,
he did not come for pardon
but as the Sinless One.
He came to share repentance
with all who mourn their sins,
to speak the vital sentence
with which good news begins.
2 He came to share temptation,
our utmost woe and loss,
for us and our salvation
to die upon the cross.
So when the dove descended
on him, the Son of Man,
the hidden years had ended,
the age of grace began.
3 Come, Holy Spirit, aid us
to keep the vows we make;
this very day invade us,
and ev'ry bondage break.
Come, give our lives direction,
the gift we covet most:
to share the resurrection
that leads to Pentecost. Languages: English Tune Title: KING'S LYNN
When Jesus Came to Jordan

foretold by ancient seers,
by God the Father given,
in human shape appears.
No sphere his light confining,
no star so brightly shining
as he, our Morning Star.
2 Oh, time of God appointed,
oh, bright and holy morn!
He comes, the king anointed,
the Christ, the virgin-born,
grim death to vanquish for us,
to open heav'n before us
and bring us life again.
3 Awaken, Lord, our spirit
to know and love you more,
in faith to stand unshaken,
in Spirit to adore,
that we, through this world moving,
each glimpse of heaven proving,
may reap its fullness there.
4 O Father, here before you
with God the Holy Ghost,
and Jesus, we adore you,
O pride of angel-host:
before you mortals lowly
cry, "Holy, holy, holy,
O blessed Trinity!" Languages: English Tune Title: HERR CHRIST, DER EINIG GOTTS SOHN
The Only Son from Heaven
