In the Cross of Christ I Glory

Author: John Bowring Hymnal: WSH1972 #437 (1972) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. 2 When the woes of life o'ertake me, Hopes deceive, and fears annoy, Never shall the cross forsake me: Lo! it glows with peace and joy. 3 When the sun of bliss is beaming Light and love upon my way, From the cross the radiance streaming Adds more luster to the day. 4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, By the cross are sanctified; Peace is there that knows no measure, Joys that through all time abide. 5 In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime.

It Came Upon the Midnight Clear

Author: Edmund H. Sears Hymnal: WSH1972 #438 (1972) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth, To touch their harps of gold: "Peace on the earth, good will to men, From heaven's all-gracious King": The world in solemn stillness lay, To hear the angels sing. 2 Still through the cloven skies they come, With peaceful wings unfurled, And still their heavenly music floats O'er all the weary world: Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hovering wing, And ever o'er its Babel sounds The blessed angels sing. 3 And ye, beneath life's crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way With painful steps and slow, Look now! for glad and golden hours Come swiftly on the wing: O rest beside the weary road, And hear the angels sing. 4 For lo, the days are hastening on, By prophet bards foretold, When with the ever-circling years Comes round the age of gold; When peace shall over all the earth Its ancient splendors fling, And the whole world give back the song Which now the angels sing. Amen. Topics: Christian Year Advent; Christian Year Christmas Scripture: Isaiah 9:6 Tune Title: CAROL

Jesus, Priceless Treasure

Author: Catherine Winkworth; Johann Franck Hymnal: WSH1972 #442 (1972) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless treasure, Source of purest pleasure, Truest friend to me; Long my heart hath panted, Till it well-nigh fainted, Thirsting after thee. Thine I am, O spotless Lamb, I will suffer naught to hide thee, Ask for naught beside thee. 2 In thine arm I rest me; Foes who would molest me Cannot reach me here. Though the earth be shaking, Every heart be quaking, God dispels our fear; Sin and hell in conflict fell With their heaviest storms assail us: Jesus will not fail us. 3 Hence, all thoughts of sadness! For the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in: Those who love the Father, Though the storms may gather, Still have peace within; Yea, whate'er we here must bear, Still in thee lies purest pleasure, Jesus, priceless treasure! Amen.
