Lord of the Worlds Above
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #480 (1941) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Lyrics: 1 Lord of the worlds above,
How pleasant and how fair
The dwellings of Thy love,
Thine earthly temples, are!
To Thine abode
My heart aspires
With warm desires
To see my God.
2 The sparrow for her young
With pleasure seeks a nest,
And wand'ring swallows long
To find their wonted rest.
My spirit faints
With equal zeal
To rise and dwell
Among Thy saints.
3 Oh, happy souls who pray
Where God appoints to hear!
Oh, happy men who pay
Their constant service there!
They praise Thee still;
And happy they
Who love the way
To Zion’s hill.
4 They go from strength to strength
Thro' this dark vale of tears,
Till each arrives at length,
Till each in heav'n appears.
Oh, glorious seat
When God, our King,
Shall thither bring
Our willing feet!
Amen.

My Song Is Love Unknown
Author: Samuel Crossman Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #482 (1995) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown,
my Savior's love for me,
love to the loveless shown
that they might lovely be.
O who am I
that for my sake
my Lord should take
frail flesh, and die?
2 He came from heaven’s throne
salvation to bestow,
but people scorned and none
the longed-for Christ would know.
But O my friend,
my friend indeed,
who at my need
his life did spend.
3 Here might I stay and sing,
no story so divine:
never was love, dear King,
never was grief like thine.
This is my friend,
in whose sweet praise
I all my days
could gladly spend. Topics: Son and Redeemer; Christ; Christ--Love of; Christian year--Holy Week; Christian year--Lent; Love for Christ; Salvation Scripture: Matthew 27:32-56 Languages: English Tune Title: LOVE UNKNOWN
My Song Is Love Unknown
Christ is the one who calls
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #487 (2013) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Lyrics: 1 Christ is the one who calls,
the one who loved and came,
to whom by right it falls
to bear the highest name:
and still today
our hearts are stirred
to hear his word
and walk his way.
2 Christ is the one who seeks,
to whom our souls are known.
The word of love he speaks
can wake a heart of stone;
for at that sound
the blind can see,
the slave is free,
the lost are found.
3 Christ is the one who died
forsaken and betrayed;
who, mocked and crucified,
the price of pardon paid.
Our dying Lord,
what grief and loss,
what bitter cross,
our souls restored!
4 Christ is the one who rose
in glory from the grave,
to share his life with those
whom once he died to save.
He drew death's sting
and broke its chains,
who lives and reigns,
our risen King.
5 Christ is the one who sends,
his story to declare;
who calls his servants friends
and gives them news to share.
His truth proclaim
in all the earth,
his matchless worth
and saving name.

My Song Is Love Unknown
Author: Samuel Crossman, c. 1624-1683 Hymnal: Worship (4th ed.) #490 (2011) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown,
My Savior’s love to me,
Love to the loveless shown
That they might lovely be.
Oh, who am I,
That for my sake
My Lord should take
Frail flesh and die?
2 He came from his blest throne
Salvation to bestow;
But people scorned him; none
The longed-for Christ would know.
But, O my friend,
My friend indeed,
Who at my need
His life did spend!
3 Sometimes they strew his way
And his sweet praises sing,
Resounding all the day
Hosannas to their King.
Then “Crucify!”
Is all their breath,
And for his death
They thirst and cry.
4 Why, what has my Lord done?
What makes this rage and spite?
He made the lame to run,
He gave the blind their sight.
Sweet injuries!
Yet they at these
Themselves displease
And 'gainst him rise.
5 They rise, and needs will have
My dear Lord made away;
A murderer they save,
The Prince of life they slay.
Yet cheerful he
To suff'ring goes
That he his foes
From thence might free.
6 In life no house, no home
My Lord on earth might have;
In death no friendly tomb
But what a stranger gave.
What may I say?
Heav'n was his home;
But mine the tomb
Wherein he lay.
7 Here might I stay and sing
No story so divine!
Never was love, dear King,
Never was grief like thine.
This is my friend,
In whose sweet praise
I all my days
Could gladly spend! Topics: Good Friday Languages: English Tune Title: LOVE UNKNOWN

Join all the glorious names
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Common Praise #493 (2000) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names
of wisdom, love, and power,
that ever mortals knew,
that angels ever bore:
all are too mean to speak his worth,
too mean to set my Saviour forth.
2 But O what gentle terms,
what condescending ways
doth our Redeemer use
to teach his heavenly grace!
Mine eyes with joy and wonder see
what forms of love he bears for me.
*3 Great Prophet of my God,
my tongue would bless thy name;
by thee the joyful news
of our salvation came:
the joyful news of sins forgiven,
of hell subdued and peace with heaven.
*4 Jesus my great High-Priest
offered his blood and died;
my guilty conscience seeks
no sacrifice beside:
his powerful blood did once atone,
and now it pleads before the throne.
5 My dear almighty Lord,
my Conqueror and my King,
thy sceptre and thy sword,
thy reign of grace, I sing;
thine is the power: behold I sit
in willing bonds before thy feet.
6 Now let my soul arise,
and tread the tempter down;
my Captain leads me forth
to conquest and a crown.
A feeble saint shall win the day,
though death and hell obstruct the way.
7 Should all the hosts of death,
and powers of hell unknown,
put their most dreadful forms
of rage and mischief on,
I shall be safe, for Christ displays
superior power, and guardian grace. Topics: Epiphany IV Year B; Proper 5 Year B; Proper 16 Year A Scripture: Acts 7:37 Languages: English Tune Title: DARWALL'S 148TH

Before You, Lord, We Bow
Author: Francis S. Key, 1779-1843 Hymnal: Lutheran Worship #500 (1982) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Lyrics: 1 Before you, Lord, we bow,
Our God who reigns above
And rules the world below,
Boundless in pow'r and love.
Our thanks we bring
In joy and praise,
Our hearts we raise
To you, our king!
2 The nation you have blest
May well your love declare,
From foes and fears at rest,
Protected by your care.
For this bright day,
For this fair land--
Gifts of your hand--
Our thanks we pay.
3 May ev'ry mountain height,
Each vale and forest green,
Shine in your Word's pure light,
And its rich fruits be seen!
May ev'ry tongue
Be tuned to praise
And join to raise
A grateful song.
4 Earth, hear your Maker's voice;
Your great Redeemer own;
Believe, obey, rejoice,
And worship him alone.
Cast down your pride,
Your sin deplore,
And bow before
The Crucified.
5 And when in pow'r he comes,
Oh, may our native land
From all its rending tombs
Send forth a glorious band,
A countless throng,
With joy to sing
To heav'n's high king
Salvation's song! Topics: Society; The Nation Languages: English Tune Title: DARWALL'S 148th
