How bright appears the Morning-Star

Appears in 18 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: I. How bright appears the Morning-Star, With Grace and Truth beyond Compare, The Royal root of JESSE; O David's Son, of Jacob's Line! My Soul's Delight, and Spouse Divine, Thy Love can only bless me. Precious, Gracious, Far and Glorious, e'er victorious, Thou my Treasure, Far beyond all earthly Pleasure. II. My choicest Pearl, and precious Crown, God and the Virgin Mary's Son, Thou King of endless Glory! Thou art compar'd to Sharon's flow'r; Thy Gospel and its saving Pow'r Excells what's Transitory. Lovely Lilly, O Hosanna, Heav'nly Manna, Thy sweet Favour Be mine everlasting Savour. III. Thy Love, so pow'rful and divine, Dart deep into this Heart of mine, Thou brilliant Stone and Jewel! Confirm me more and more to be A Branch of Thee, the living Tree, That Self may lose its Fewel. Sighing, Dying Is thy Creature; for in Nature Is no Pleasure Without Thee, my King and Treasure. IV. From God descends a Glance of Joy. When thou, with thy most gracious Eye, Beholdst thy loving Creature: Immanuel! my sov'reign Good, Thy Word, thy Spirit, Flesh and Blood Renew my very Nature; Grant me sweetly Thine Embraces, that the Graces Of Salvation May root out all Depravation. V. Thou Father, from Eternity, In Mercy was inclin'd to me, Through CHRIST, thy well-beloved; Thy son has chose me for his Bride; In this my Spouse I can confide; My Love shall ne'er be moved. O! this Bliss is Of his giving, who's the Living Bread and Manna; Ever will I sing HOSANNA. VI. Tune all your Strings of Lute and Harp, Resolve the Notes of Flat and Sharp Into Celestial Concords, That Nothing may disturb my Frame, Which is wrapt up in JESUS' Name, The sweetest of all Comforts. Ringing, Singing, In your Praises, let the Phrases Of your Duty Please the Lord of Bliss and Beauty. VII. My Joy to all the World be known, That my Beloved keeps his Throne, On Hills of Light and Glory. He'll kindly bring me to that Place, Where all the Wonders of his Grace Shall lie disclos'd before me. Amen! Amen! Lord my Sov'reign! come and govern All the Nations; Come! I wait with great Impatience. Topics: Spiritual Marriage Used With Tune: [How bright appears the Morning-Star]

Nicolai Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.4.8.4.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 O Morning Star, so pure and bright, Whose rays shed forth pure truth and light, Thou Sov'reign meek and lowly; Sweet Root of Jesse, Thou who art The Lord and Bridegroom of the heart, Deign Thou to own me wholly. Loving art Thou Great and glorious, all victorious, Rich in blessing, Rule and might o'er all possessing. 2 Thou radiant Brightness from above, Fill Thou my heart with heav'nly love, Nor may Thy grace forsake me; O fill Thou me with joy divine, And let me be forever Thine; Thy fruitful member make me. Tow'rd Thee longing Doth possess me, do Thou bless me, Sun of gladness, Lest my soul repine in sadness. 3 If Thou but look on me in love, God draweth near me from above With joy's o'erflowing measure; Lord Jesus Christ, my highest Good, Thy Word and Spirit, flesh and blood, My inmost heart doth treasure. With Thy bounty Draw Thou near me, warm and cheer me, Firmly hold me; Keep me Thine, in love enfold me. 4 Here will I rest, and e'er hold fast: My Bridegroom is the First and Last, The source and goal forever; Here I may calmly die, for Thou Wilt take me where Thou dwellest now, Naught Thee and me shall sever. Amen! Amen! Come, we pray Thee, nor delay Thee; We with yearning Look, O Lord, for Thy returning. Topics: The Means of Grace The Redeemer Used With Tune: NICOLAI Text Sources: Tr. composite

How brightly shines the Morning Star!

Author: Philipp Nicolai, 1556-1608; William Mercer, 1811-1873 Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.4.8.4.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 How brightly shines the Morning Star! The nations see and hail afar The Light in Judah shining. Thou David's son of Jacob's race, The Bridegroom, and the King of grace, For thee our hearts are pining! Lowly, holy, Great and glorious, thou victorious Prince of graces, Filling all the heavenly places! 2 Though circled by the hosts on high, He deigns to cast a pitying eye Upon his helpless creatures; The whole creation's Head and Lord, By highest seraphim adored, Assumed our very nature. Jesu, grant us, Through thy merit, to inherit Thy salvation; Hear, O hear our supplication. 3 Rejoice, ye heav’ns; thou earth, reply; With praise, ye sinners, fill the sky, For this his incarnation. Incarnate God, put forth thy power, Ride on, ride on, great Conqueror, Till all know thy salvation. Amen, Amen! Alleluya, Alleluya! Praise be given Evermore by earth and heaven.

Brillante en celestial fulgor

Author: Phillip Nicolai; Federico Fliedner Appears in 4 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 First Line: Brillante en celestial fugor Lyrics: 1 Brillante celestial fulgor, su luz esparce alrededor la estrella matutina: El día anuncia de solaz, de libertad y dulce paz en hora ya vecina cuando dando a nuestra alma la fiel palma de victoria Dios nos llevará a la gloria. 2 Veré con gozo sin igual Jerusalén la celestial, ya dentro de sus puertas; porque el Cordero que murió y con su sangre me compró, ya me las tiene abiertas. Cruenta cuenta ha pagado, cuando ajado, moribundo, dio la vida por el mundo. 3 No ya con ojos de la fe, sin velo allí contemplaré el rostro del Dios mío; del alto rey la majestad, la gloria de su santidad, de cerca ver confío. Tanto cuanto fue escondido al sentido, bella, pura, celestial, alta hermosura. 4 ¡Luz bella, te presiento ya! En ropa blanca alegre está, y espérate la esposa. Llama: "Jesús, ven pronto, ven." "Pronto vendré", dice él también, A mi alma fiel, ansiosa. Santo canto, honra, gloria, loor, victoria doy muriendo: mi alma en tu mano encomiendo.
