The various wonders of the Lord;
And let his pow'r and goodness sound
Thro' all your tribes, the earth around.
2 Let the high heav'ns your songs invite,
Those spacious fields of brilliant light;
Where sun, and moon, and planets roll,
And stars, that glow from pole to pole.
3 Sing, earth, in verdant robes array'd,
Its herbs and flow'rs, its fruits and shade;
Peopled with life of various forms,
Of fish, and fowl, and beasts, and worms.
4 View the broad sea's majestic plains,
And think how wide its maker reigns;
That band remotest nations joins,
And on each wave, his goodness shines.
5 But O! that brighter world ab ove,
Where lives and reigns incarnate love!
God's only Son in flesh array'd,
For man, a bleeding victim made.
6 Thither, my soul with rapture soar;
There in thee land of praise adore;
The theme demands an angel's lay,
Demands an everlasting day. Topics: Hymns, adapted to Particular Parts of Public Worship

Our foolishness to mourn!
And turn at once from every sin,
And to the Savior turn.

Repentance unto life bestow,
And take our sins away.

And freely then release:
Fill every soul with sacred grief,
And then with sacred peace.

Earth has many a noble city
Author: Prudentius, 348-c. 413; Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 61 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 103:1 Lyrics: 1 Earth has many a noble city;
Bethl'hem, thou dost all excel:
out of thee the Lord from heaven
came to rule his Israel.
2 Fairer than the sun at morning
was the star that told his birth,
to the world its God announcing
seen in fleshly form on earth.
3 Eastern sages at his cradle
make oblations rich and rare;
see them give in deep devotion,
gold and frankincense and myrrh.
4 Sacred gifts of mystic meaning:
incense doth their God disclose,
gold the King of kings proclaimeth,
myrrh his sepulcher foreshows.
5 Jesu, whom the Gentiles worshipped
at thy glad Epiphany,
unto thee with God the Father
and the Spirit glory be. Topics: Epiphany; Epiphany Used With Tune: STUTTGART
