See in Yonder Manger Low

He who built the starry skies,
He who, throned in height sublime,
Sits amid the cherubim. [Refrain]

In Thy sweet humility. [Refrain] Topics: Christmas; Humility Scripture: Luke 2:1-20 Used With Tune: HUMILITY

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Author: Robert Robinson, 1735-90 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2,203 hymnals First Line: Come, Thou Fount of ev'ry blessing Lyrics: 1 Come, Thou Fount of ev'ry blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
While the hope of endless glory
Fills my heart with joy and love,
Teach me ever to adore Thee;
May I still Thy goodness prove.
2 Here I raise my Ebenezer,
Hither by Thy help I've come;
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wand'ring from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
3 Oh, to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be;
Let that grace now like a fetter
Bind my wand'ring heart to Thee:
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it;
Prone to leave the God I love.
Here's my heart, oh, take and seal it,
Seal it for Thy courts above.
4 Oh, that day when freed from sinning,
I shall see Thy lovely face;
Clothed then in the blood-washed linen
How I'll sing Thy wondrous grace!
Come, my Lord, no longer tarry,
Take my ransom'd soul away;
Send Thine angels soon to carry
Me to realms of endless day. Topics: Commitment; Confession; Confirmation; Last Things Scripture: 1 Samuel 7:3-12 Used With Tune: NETTLETON

Swell the triumph of His train:

Deeply wailing, deeply wailing, deeply wailing.

Still His dazzling body bears,
Cause of endless exultation
To His ransomed worshipers.

High on Thine eternal throne;

Claim the kingdom as Thine own.

Has redeemed us by His blood."

When the forty days were o'er,
Shall our hearts forget His promise:
"I am with you evermore"?

Here on earth our food, our stay;

Earth's Redeemer, hear our plea
Where the songs of all the sinless
Sweep across the crystal sea.
4 Alleluia! King eternal,
Lord omnipotent we own;
Alleluia! Born of Mary,
Earth Your footstool, heav'n Your throne.
As within the veil You entered,
Robed in flesh, our great high priest,
Here on earth both priest and victim
In the eucharistic feast.
