The Lord Is My Shepherd

Author: Julia H. Johnston Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8131 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: The Lord is my shepherd; little lambs Lyrics: 1 The Lord is my shepherd; little lambs May safely trust His care; I shall not want, for He will lead To pastures green and fair. Beside the waters safe and still, He guides me day by day; And in the paths of righteousness, He gently leads the way. 2 When thro’ the valley I must walk, Where death’s dark shadows fall, With rod and staff Thou wilt be near, To help me when I call. A bounteous table Thou dost spread Thou givest more and more; With all the blessings of Thy love, Behold, my cup runs o’er. 3 Thy care unceasing, I will trust, I follow after Thee! For Thou dost call me to Thy side, Thy little lamb to be. Thy goodness, mercy, love and truth, Shall follow me each day; And I shall dwell in God’s own house: My shepherd says I may.

Arise And Shine, O Zion Fair

Author: John A. Granade Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8217 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Arise and shine, O Zion fair, Behold, thy light is come! Thy glorious conquering king is near To take His exiles home. The trumpet sounding through the sky, To set poor captives free; The day of wonder now is nigh: The day of Jubilee. 2 Ye heralds, blow your trumpets loud, The earth must know her doom; Go spread the news from pole to pole, Behold, the Judge is come; Blow out the sun, burn up the earth! Consume the rolling flood; While every star shall disappear, Go turn the moon to blood. 3 Arise, ye nations under ground, Before the Judge appear; All tongues and languages shall come, Their final doom to hear! King Jesus on His dazzling throne, Ten thousand angels round; And Gabriel with a silver trump, Echoes the awful sound! 4 The glorious news of Gospel grace To sinners now is o’er; The trump in Zion now is still, And to be heard no more! The watchmen all have left their walls And with their flocks above, On Canaan’s peaceful shore they sing, And shout redeeming love. 5 Come, all ye pilgrims in the Lord, Whose hearts are joined in one, Hold up your hands with courage bold, Your race is almost run. Above the clouds the Savior sits, And smiling, bids you come; Angels will guide your happy souls To your eternal home. 6 Behold a pilgrim as he dies, With glory in his view, To Heaven he lifts his longing eyes, And bids the world adieu; While friends are weeping all around, And loth to let him go, He shouts with his expiring breath, And leaves them all below. 7 O! Christians, are you ready now, To cross that narrow flood, On Canaan’s happy shore behold, And see your smiling God? The dazzling charms of that bright world, Attracts my soul above; My tongue shall shout redeeming grace, When perfected in love. 8 Go on, my brethren in the Lord, I’m bound to meet you there; Although we tread enchanted ground, Be bold and never fear. Fight on, fight on, ye conquering souls, The land, it is in view; And when I gain fair Canaan’s shore, I hope to meet with you. Languages: English Tune Title: INGLESIDE

O Lovely Voices Of The Sky

Author: Felicia D. Hemans Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8355 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O lovely voices of the sky, That hymned the Savior’s birth, Are ye not singing still on high, Who once sang peace on earth? Still o’er us float those holy strains Wherewith in days gone by, Ye blessed the lowly Syrian swain, O voices of the sky! 2 O clear and shining light, whose beams A heav’nly radiance shed Around the palms, and o’er the streams And on the shepherd’s head; Be near thro’ life, be near in death, As in that holiest night Of hope, of gladness, and of faith, O clear and shining light. 3 O star, which led’st to Him whose love Brought down man’s ransom, free, Thou still art midst the hosts above: We still may gaze on thee! In Heav’n thy light doth never set, Thy rays earth may not dim; Oh, send them forth to guide us yet, Bright star which led to Him. Languages: English Tune Title: CLYDESDALE

While Humble Shepherds Watched Their Flocks

Author: Nahum Tate, 1652-1715 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8362 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 While humble shepherds watched their flocks In Bethl’hem’s plains by night, An angel sent from Heav’n appeared, And filled the plains with light.

From The Far-Blazing Gate Of Morn

Author: Caelius Sedulius, 5th Century; Edward Caswall Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8387 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 From the far-blazing gate of morn To earth’s remotest shore, Let every tongue confess to Him Whom holy Mary bore. Lo! the great Maker of the world, Lord of eternal years, To save His creatures, veiled beneath A creature’s form appears. 2 A spotless maiden’s virgin breast With heav’nly grace He fills; In her pure womb He is conceived, And there in secret dwells. That bosom, chastity’s sweet home, Becomes, oh, blest reward! The shrine of Heav’n’s immortal king, The temple of the Lord. 3 And Mary bears the Babe, foretold By an archangel’s voice; Whose presence made the Baptist leap, And in the womb rejoice. A manger scantly strewn with hay Becomes th’ Eternal’s bed; And He, who feeds each smallest bird, Himself with milk is fed. 4 Straightway with joy the heav’ns are filled, The hosts angelic sing; And shepherds hasten to adore Their shepherd and their king. Praise to the Father! praise to Thee, Thou virgin’s holy Son! Praise to the Spirit Paraclete, While endless ages run. Languages: English Tune Title: YALE

The Angels Sing Around The Stall

Author: Peter Gallwey Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8391 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 The angels sing around the stall Where Jesus cradled lies; The shepherds hear the joyful call That wakes the silent skies. Hark! to the music floating by, Ere yet its echoes cease! Poured forth from angels’ minstrelsy, Is heard the song of peace. 2 The eastern kings the star have seen, They hasten on their way; Long time they’ve watched and waiting been The dawning of that day; The dawning of the day of grace, The gleam of Jacob’s star, The virgin’s child of Jesse’s race, Whom prophets saw afar. 3 And now they open treasures rare, Which Indian silks enfold; Of myrrh, which sweetly scents the air, Of frankincense and gold. Their kingly heads they meekly bow The cradled Babe before; Their God confess, and kneeling low In humble faith adore. 4 With them I come to greet my king, Yet not with them to part; No gold, no frankincense, I bring, I offer Him my heart. With Him to live, with Him to die, Who by His lowly birth, Gave glory to our God on high, And peace to men on earth. Languages: English Tune Title: AMIENS

From Dayspring's Faintest Eastern Goal

Author: Caelius Sedulius, 5th Century; Richard Mant Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8394 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: From dayspring’s faintest eastern goal Lyrics: 1 From dayspring’s faintest eastern goal Far as the utmost west, Come, sing we Christ, the Savior born Of virgin mother blest: The Father of the age to come, In servant’s form arrayed, That Man He might for man atone, And ransom whom He made. 2 Within that mother’s spotless frame Celestial favor reigns, A secret load, she weened not of, The maiden pure sustains: Her bosom chaste at once becomes The temple for her God; And she, who knew not man, is made A heavenly Babe’s abode. 3 He comes, He comes, the virgin-born To Gabriel’s promise true; He, whom, as yet unborn, o’erjoyed The unborn Baptist knew: Nor reeks He of His bed of hay, Nor He the manger heeds; Enough the milky breast for Him, Who all the ravens feeds. 4 A shepherd to the shepherds’ fold The Lord of all is showed, Celestial choristers rejoice, And angels sing to God. Now glory, Jesus, be to Thee, Whom a pure virgin bore, With Father, and with Holy Ghost, Henceforth for evermore. Languages: English Tune Title: HUACHUCA

Thou From The Cradle To The Grave

Author: Jean B. de Santeüil, 1630-1697; Robert Campbell, 1814-1868 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8396 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Thou from the cradle to the grave For us to pain condemned, A grateful heart Thy people give To praise their suffering friend— That Friend who longed for man to die, While yet in Mary’s womb; That God who took humanity, To lay it in the tomb. 2 He comes a babe, though Lord of all, In cold and want to lie; His cradle is the oxen’s stall, The straw His drapery: ’Tis love that makes the Innocent The pains of guilt to bear, The Giver of the law content Its penalty to share. 3 That precious blood which gently flows And speaks the law obeyed, Foreshadoweth His dying woes A little while delayed. The sword that slays the sucklings now Unsheathèd must remain, To pierce His heart and lay Him low With those already slain. 4 His chosen race their God expel— An exile poor He flies; In heathen lands He seeks to dwell Who made the earth and skies. O King of suffering, King of love, All praise be paid to Thee, With Father, Spirit, God above, Eternal Trinity. Languages: English Tune Title: PAX
