O Christ, Thou bright and morning Star

Author: Miss Winkworth; Basil Foertzsch Hymnal: Church Book #24 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Advent, Third Sunday Lyrics: 1 O Christ, Thou bright and morning Star, Now shed Thy light abroad: Shine on us from Thy throne afar With Thy pure glorious Word. 2 O Jesus, Comfort of the poor, I lift my heart to Thee: I know Thy mercies still endure And Thou wilt pity me. 3 For Thou didst suffer for my soul, Her burdens to remove: O make me through Thy sorrows whole, Refresh me with Thy love. 4 Then, Jesus, glory, honor, praise, I'll ever sing to Thee: And Thou at last my soul wilt raise To endless joys with Thee!

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing

Author: Robert Robinson Hymnal: Church Book #30 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Topics: Advent, Third Sunday Lyrics: 1 Come, thou Fount of every blessing, Tune my heart to sing Thy grace; Streams of mercy, never ceasing, Call for songs of loudest praise. 2 Here I raise my Ebenezer, Hither by Thy help I'm come; And I hope, by Thy good pleasure, Safely to arrive at home. 3 Jesus sought me when a stranger, Wandering from the fold of God; He, to rescue me from danger, Interposed His precious Blood. 4 O, to grace how great a debtor Daily I'm constrained to be! Let that grace, Lord, like a fetter, Bind my wandering heart to Thee. 5 Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love; Here's my heart; O take and seal it, Seal it from Thy courts above.

Sweeter sounds than music knows

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Church Book #222 (1890) Topics: Advent, Third Sunday Lyrics: 1 Sweeter sounds than music knows, Charm me in Emmanuel's Name; All her hopes my spirit owes To His birth, and Cross, and shame. 2 When He came the angels sung, "Glory be to God on high:" Lord, unloose my stammering tongue; Who shall louder sing than I? 3 Did the Lord a man become, That He might the law fulfil, Bleed and suffer in my room, And canst thou, my tongue, be still? 4 No; I must my praises bring, Though they worthless are, and weak; For, should I refuse to sing, Sure the very stones would speak. 5 O my Saviour, Shield, and Sun, Shepherd, Brother, Lord, and Friend-- Every precious name in one! I will love Thee without end. Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 136TH PSALM

Jesus, Savior, come to me!

Author: Johann Scheffler (Angelus Silesius); Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #279 (1908) Topics: The Catechism The Redeemer; Fourth Sunday of Advent; Third Sunday in Lent; Sixth Sunday in Lent Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Savior! come to me, Let me ever be with Thee; Come, and nevermore depart, Thou who reignest in my heart. 2 Ever do I for Thee sigh, Nothing else can satisfy. Ever do I cry to Thee: Jesus, Jesus, come to me! 3 Earthly joys can give no peace, Ne'er can bid my longing cease; Still to have my Jesus near, This is all my pleasure here. 4 All that makes the angels glad, In their garb of glory clad, Only fills me with distress If Thy presence does not bless. 5 Take Thou all away from me, I shall still thus minded be, Thou who madest me Thine own Shalt be all my joy alone. 6 None shall claim my heart beside, None but Jesus crucified; Savior, I am only Thine, Other love shall ne'er be mine. 7 Thou alone, my God and Lord, Art my glory and reward; Thou hast bled for me and died, I will be no other's bride. 8 Come, then, Lamb for sinners slain, Come and ease me of my pain; Evermore I cry to Thee: Jesus, Jesus, come to me! 9 Patiently I wait and pray; Jesus do not say me nay; That when death shall come to me, Thou my Jesus sweet wilt be.

I'll praise my Maker whilst I've breath

How beauteous are their feet

Author: Watts Hymnal: Church Book #285 (1890) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Advent, Third Sunday Lyrics: 1 How beauteous are their feet, Who stand on Zion's hill! Who bring salvation on their tongues, And words of peace reveal. 2 How charming is their voice! How sweet the tidings are! "Zion, behold thy Saviour King; He reigns and triumphs here." 3 How happy are our ears, That hear this joyful sound, Which kings and prophets waited for, And sought, but never found! 4 How blessed are our eyes That see this heavenly light! Prophets and saints desired it long, But died without the sight. 5 The watchmen join their voice, And tuneful notes employ; Jerusalem breaks forth in songs, And deserts learn the joy. 6 The Lord makes bare His arm Through all the earth abroad; Let all the nations now behold Their Saviour and their God.
