O Sacred Head, Now Wounded
Author: Paul Gerhardt; James W. Alexander Hymnal: WSH1972 #524 (1972) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O sacred Head, now wounded,
With grief and shame weighed down;
Now scornfully surrounded
With thorns, thine only crown;
O sacred Head, what glory,
What bliss till now was thine!
Yet, though despised and gory,
I joy to call thee mine.
2 What thou, my Lord, hast suffered
Was all for sinners' gain:
Mine, mine was the transgression,
But thine the deadly pain.
Lo, here I fall, my Savior!
'Tis I deserve thy place;
Look on me with thy favor,
Vouchsafe to me thy grace.
3 What language shall I borrow
To thank thee, dearest Friend,
For this thy dying sorrow,
Thy pity without end?
O make me thine forever;
And should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
Outlive my love to thee.
Amen. Topics: Sacraments Lord's Supper; Christian Year Lent; Christian Year Good Friday; Other Observances World Communion Scripture: John 19:2-5 Tune Title: PASSION CHORALE

O Sing a New Song to the Lord
Hymnal: WSH1972 #525 (1972) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O sing a new song to the Lord:
Sing all the earth to God,
To God sing, bless his name, show still
His saving health abroad.
2 Great honor is before his face,
And majesty divine;
Strength is within his holy place,
And there does beauty shine.
3 O give unto the living Lord,
You men of every tribe,
All glory give unto the Lord
And mighty power ascribe.
4 O give the glory to the Lord
That to his name is due;
Come all into his courts, and bring
An offering with you.
5 In beauty of his holiness,
O do the Lord adore;
Likewise let all the earth throughout
Fear him whom we implore.

O Sing a New Song to the Lord
O Sing a Song of Bethlehem
Author: Louis F. Benson Hymnal: WSH1972 #526 (1972) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O sing a song of Bethlehem,
Of shepherds watching there,
And of the news that came to them
From angels in the air:
The light that shone on Bethlehem
Fills all the world today;
Of Jesus' birth and peace on earth
The angels sing alway.
2 O sing a song of Nazareth,
Of sunny days of joy;
O sing of fragrant flowers' breath,
And of the sinless boy:
For now the flowers of Nazareth
In every heart may grow;
Now spreads the fame of his dear name
On all the winds that blow.
3 O sing a song of Galilee,
Of lake and woods and hill,
Of him who walked upon the sea
And bade its waves be still:
For though, like waves on Galilee,
Dark seas of trouble roll,
When faith has heard the Master's word,
Falls peace upon the soul.
4 O sing a song of Calvary,
Its glory and dismay;
Of him who hung upon the tree,
And took our sins away:
For he who died on Calvary
Is risen from the grave,
And Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored,
Is mighty now to save.

O Spirit of the Living God
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: WSH1972 #528 (1972) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Spirit of the living God,
In all the fullness of your grace,
Where'er the foot of man has trod,
Descend on our rebellious race.
2 Give tongues of fire and hearts of love
To preach the reconciling word;
Give power and blessing from above,
Whene'er the joyful sound is heard.
3 Be darkness, at your coming, light;
Confusion, order in your path;
Souls without strength inspire with might;
Bid mercy triumph over wrath.
4 O Spirit of the Lord, prepare
All the round earth her God to meet;
And breathe abroad like morning air,
Till hearts of stone begin to beat.
5 Baptize the nations; far and nigh
The triumphs of the cross record;
The name of Jesus glorify,
Till every kindred call him Lord.

And keep our hearts from envy's blight;
Let faith her eager fires renew,
And hate the false, and love the true.

With thoughts as clear as morning's ray,
With faith like noon-tide shining bright,
Our souls unshadowed by the night.

Let Him, our perfect morn, arise;
The Father's help his children claim,
And sing the Father's glorious name.

O Where Are Kings and Empires Now
Author: Arthur Cleveland Coxe Hymnal: WSH1972 #530 (1972) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O where are kings and empires now
Of old that went and came?
But, Lord, your Church is praying yet,
A thousand years the same.
2 We mark her goodly battlements
And her foundations strong;
We hear within the solemn voice
Of her unending song.
3 For not like kingdoms of the world
Your holy Church, O God,
Though earthquake shocks are threatening her,
And tempests are abroad,
4 Unshaken as eternal hills,
Immovable she stands,
A mountain that shall fill the earth,
A house not made by hands.

Of glory that the church shall share,
Which Christ upon the mountain shows
When brighter than the sun he glows.

Christ deigns to manifest today
What glory shall be theirs above
Who joy in God with perfect love.
3 And faithful souls in vision see
The heights of God's own mystery;
For which in joyful strains we raise
The voice of prayer, the hymn of praise.
4 O Father, with th' eternal Son,
And Holy Spirit, ever One,
Be pleased to bring us by your grace
To see your glory face to face.

O Word of God Incarnate
Author: William Walsham How Hymnal: WSH1972 #532 (1972) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Word of God Incarnate,
O Wisdom from on high,
O Truth unchanged, unchanging,
O Light of our dark sky,
We praise you for the radiance
That from the hallowed page,
A lantern to our footsteps,
Shines on from age to age.
2 The Church from her dear Master
Received the gift divine,
And still that light is lifted
O'er all the earth to shine.
It is the chest so precious,
Where gems of truth are stored;
It is the heaven-drawn picture
Of Christ, the living Word.
3 It floats e'er like a banner
Before God's host unfurled;
It shines out like a beacon
Above the darkening world.
It is the chart and compass
That o'er life's surging sea,
'Mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
Still guides to Christ who saves.
4 O make your Church, dear Savior,
A lamp of purest gold,
To bear before the nations
Your true light, as of old.
O teach your wandering pilgrims
By this their path to trace,
Till, clouds and darkness ended,
They see you face to face.

O Word of God Incarnate
O Worship the King All-glorious Above
Author: Robert Grant Hymnal: WSH1972 #533 (1972) Meter: 10.10.11.11 First Line: O worship the King, all-glorious above Lyrics: 1 O worship the King all-glorious above,
O gratefully sing his power and his love;
Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days,
Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise.
2 O tell of his might, O sing of his grace,
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space.
His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form,
And dark is his path on the wings of the storm.
3 The earth with its store of wonders untold,
Almighty, your power has founded of old;
Established it fast by a changeless decree,
And round it has cast, like a mantle, the sea.
4 Your bountiful care, what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light;
It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.
5 We children of dust are feeble and frail,
In you do we trust, nor find you to fail;
Your mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend!
Amen. Topics: Service for the Lord's Day Opening of Worship; Service for the Lord's Day After Old Testament Lesson; Service for the Lord's Day After Offering Scripture: Psalm 104 Tune Title: LYONS
