Author: Christopher Wordsworth Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 135 hymnals Topics: Proper 4 Year B Lyrics: 1 Songs of thankfulness and praise, Jesus Christ, to you we raise, manifested by the star, to the sages from afar; branch of royal David's stem in your birth at Bethlehem; anthems be to you addressed God in flesh made manifest. 2 Manifest at Jordan's stream, Prophet, Priest and King supreme; and at Cana wedding-guest in your Godhead manifest; manifest in power divine, changing water into wine: anthems be to you addressed God in flesh 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 you addressed God in flesh made manifest. 4 Grant us grace to see you, Lord, mirrored in your holy Word; with your grace our lives endow, grace to imitate you now, that we like to you may be at your great epiphany; anthems be to you addressed God in flesh made manifest.
