Lyrics: 1 How brightly beams the Morning Star! What sudden radiance from afar! It cheers us with its shining. Brightness of God, that breaks our night and fills the darkened souls with light, who long for truth were pining! Newly, truly God's word feeds us, rightly leads us, life bestowing. Praise, O praise such love o'erflowing! 2 All praise to him who came to save, who conquered death and scorned the grave; each day new praise resoundeth to him, the life who once was slain, the friend whom none shall trust in vain, whose grace for aye aboundeth; sing then, ring then, tell the story of his glory, till his praises flood with light earth's darkest mazes!

Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: Voices United #62 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: The Christian Year C; Christian Year Christmas Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city stood a lowly cattle-shed, where a mother laid her baby in a manger for his bed. Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven, who, with God is over all, and his shelter was a stable, and his cradle was a stall. There among the poor and lowly lived on earth our Saviour holy. 3 For he is our lifelong pattern; daily, when on earth he grew; he was tempted, scorned, rejected, tears and smiles like us he knew. Thus he feels for all our sadness, and he shares in all our gladness. 4 And our eyes at last shall see him, through his own redeeming love; for that child who seemed so helpless is our Lord in heaven above; and he leads his children on to the place where he is gone.

As With Gladness Men of Old

Author: William Chatterton Dix Hymnal: Voices United #81 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: The Christian Year Epiphany; Christian Year Epiphany Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old did the guiding star behold, as with joy they hailed its light, leading onward, beaming bright, so, most gracious Lord, may we evermore your splendour see. 2 As with joyful steps they sped, to that lowly manger bed, there to bend the knee before Christ, whom heaven and earth adore; so may we with eager pace ever seek your throne of grace. 3 As they offered gifts most rare at that manger rude and bare, so may we with holy joy, pure and free from sin's alloy, all our costliest treasures bring, Christ, to you, our heavenly King. 4 Holy Jesus, every day keep us in the narrow way; and, when earthly things are past, bring our ransomed lives at last where they need no star to guide, where no clouds your glory hide. 5 In the heavenly country bright none shall need created light; you its light, its joy, its crown, you its sun which goes not down; there forever may we sing hallelujah to our King.
