Joyful Is the Dark
Author: Brian Wren Meter: 5.5.10.6.5.10 Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Mary, Mother of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Joyful is the dark,
holy, hidden God,
rolling cloud of night beyond all naming,
majesty in darkness,
energy of love,
Word in flesh, the mystery proclaiming.
2 Joyful is the dark
Spirit of the deep,
winging wildly o’er the world’s creation,
silken sheen of midnight
plumage black and bright,
swooping with the beauty of a raven.
3 Joyful is the dark,
shadowed stable floor;
angels flicker, God on earth confessing,
as with exultation,
Mary, giving birth,
hails the infant cry of need and blessing.
4 Joyful is the dark
coolness of the tomb,
waiting for the wonder of the morning.
Never was that midnight
touched by dread and gloom:
darkness was the cradle of the dawning.
5 Joyful is the dark
depth of love divine,
roaring, looming thundercloud of glory,
holy, haunting beauty,
living, loving God.
Hallelujah! Sing and tell the story! Scripture: Genesis 1:1-2 Used With Tune: JOYFUL DARK Text Sources: Bring Many Names
Joyful Is the Dark

Unless the Lord Constructs the House
Author: Mollie Knight Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Ten Commandments 5th Commandment (honor your fahter and mother) Lyrics: 1 Unless the Lord constructs the house,
the builders work in vain;
the Lord alone designs and builds
foundations that remain.
2 Unless the Lord is keeping watch,
the city cannot stand;
the sentry guards the gates in vain
without God's mighty hand.
3 In vain you labor night and day,
by constant care oppressed;
the Lord supplies your loved ones' needs
and grants them sleep and rest.
4 The Lord designed the family,
providing earthly love;
our children are God's heritage -
a gift from heaven above.
5 Like weapons in a warrior's hand
are those who bear our name;
with them we face a hostile world
assured and free from shame. Scripture: Psalm 127 Used With Tune: ST. ANNE

Magnificat
Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Mary, Mother of God First Line: My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord Lyrics: My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
who has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me
and holy is his name.
God has mercy on those who fear him,
from generation to generation.
The Lord has shown strength with his arm
and scattered the proud in their conceit,
casting down the mighty from their thrones
and lifting up the lowly.
God has filled the hungry with good things
and sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the aid of his servant Israel,
to remember the promise of mercy,
the promise made to our forebears,
to Abraham and his children for ever. Scripture: Luke 1:47-55 Used With Tune: [My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord] Text Sources: The English translation of the Magnificat prepared by the English Language Liturgical Consultation (ELLC), 1988
