O God of God, O Light of Light

Author: J. Julian, 1839-1913 Hymnal: ELH1996 #170 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Lyrics: 1 O God of God, O Light of Light, Thou Prince of Peace, Thou King of kings! To Thee where angels know no night The song of praise forever rings. To Him who sits upon the throne, The Lamb once slain for sinful men, Be honor, might, all by Him won, Glory and praise! Amen, Amen. 2 Deep in the prophets' sacred page, Grand in the poets' winged word, Slowly, in type, from age to age, Nations beheld their coming Lord, Till through the deep Judean night Rang out the song "Good will to men!" Hymned by the first-born sons of light, Reechoed now, "Good will!" Amen. 3 That life of truth, those deeds of love, That death of pain, mid hate and scorn-- These all are past, and now above He reigns, our King, once crowned with thorn. Lift up your heads, ye heav'nly gates! So sang His hosts, unheard by men, Lift up your heads, for you He waits. We lift them up. Amen, Amen. 4 Nations afar, in ign'rance deep, Isles of the sea, where darkness lay, These hear His voice, they wake from sleep, And throng with joy the upward way. They cry with us, "Send forth Thy light, O Lamb, once slain for sinful men! Burst Satan's bonds, O God of might; Set all men free!" Amen, Amen. 5 Sing to the Lord a glorious song; Sing to His name, His love forthtell! Sing on, heav'n's host, His praise prolong; Sing, ye who now on earth do dwell! Worthy the Lamb for sinners slain! From angels praise and thanks from men! Worthy the Lamb, enthroned to reign, Glory and pow'r! Amen, Amen.

O Word of God Incarnate

Author: W. W. How, 1823-97 Hymnal: ELH1996 #171 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 O Word of God incarnate, O Wisdom from on high, O Truth unchanged, unchanging, O Light of our dark sky, We praise You for the radiance That from the hallowed page, A lantern to our footsteps Shines on from age to age. 2 The Church from You, dear Master Received the gift divine, And still that light is lifted O'er all the earth to shine. It is the chart and compass That, all life's voyage through, Mid mists and rocks and quicksands Still guides, O Christ, to You. 3 O make Your Church, dear Savior, A lamp of burnished gold To bear before the nations Your true light, as of old; O teach Your wand'ring pilgrims By this their path to trace, Till, clouds and darkness ended, They see You face to face.

Songs of Thankfulness and Praise

Author: C. Wordsworth, 1807-85 Hymnal: ELH1996 #172 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Songs of thankfulness and praise, Jesus, Lord, to Thee we raise; Manifested by the star To the sages from afar, Branch of royal David's stem, In Thy birth at Bethlehem: Anthems be to Thee addressed Word in flesh made manifest. 2 Manifest at Jordan's stream, Prophet, Priest, and King supreme, And at Cana, Wedding Guest, In Thy Godhead manifest; Manifest in pow'r divine, Changing water into wine; Anthems be to Thee addressed God on earth made manifest. 3 Manifest in making whole Palsied limbs and fainting soul; Manifest in valiant fight, Quelling all the devil's might; Manifest in gracious will, Ever bringing good from ill; Anthems be to Thee addressed, God for us made manifest. 4 Grant us grace to see Thee, Lord, Mirrored in Thy holy Word; May we imitate Thee now And be pure, as pure art Thou; That we like to Thee may be At Thy great epiphany, And may praise Thee, ever blest, God for all made manifest.

The Star Proclaims the King Is Here

Author: C. Sedulius; J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: ELH1996 #173 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The star proclaims the King is here; But, Herod, why this senseless fear? He takes no realms of earth away Who gives the realms of heav'nly day. 2 The wiser Magi see from far And follow on His guiding star; And, led by light, to Light they press And by their gifts their God confess. 3 Within the Jordan's crystal flood In meekness stands the Lamb of God And, sinless, sanctifies the wave, Mankind from sin to cleanse and save. 4 At Cana first His pow'r is shown; His might the blushing waters own And, changing as He speaks the word, Flow wine, obedient to their Lord. 5 All glory, Jesus, be to Thee For this Thy glad epiphany; Whom with the Father we adore And Holy Ghost forevermore.

Author: I. Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: ELH1996 #176 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 How shall the young secure their hearts, And guard their lives from sin?

When I hunger, Jesus feeds me, Into pleasant pastures leads me; When I thirst, He bids me go Where the quiet waters flow. 3 Who so happy as I am, Even now the Shepherd's lamb? And when my short life is ended, By His angel host attended, He shall fold me to His breast, There within His arms to rest.
