Let the round world with songs rejoice
Author: Richard Mant, 1776-1848 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let the round world with songs rejoice,
Let heaven return the joyful voice,
All mindful of the Apostles’ fame,
Let heaven and earth their praise proclaim.
2 Ye servants who once bore the light
Of gospel truth o’er heathen night,
Still may your work that light impart,
To glad our eyes and cheer our heart.
3 O God, by whom to them was given
The key that shuts and opens heaven,
Our chains unbind, our loss repair,
And grant us grace to enter there.
4 For at thy will they preached the word
Which cured disease, which health conferred;
O may thy healing power once more
Our souls to grace and health restore.
5 That when as judge thy Son shall come
To bring his ransomed people home,
He may with them pronounce us blest,
And place us in thine endless rest.
6 To God the Father, God the Son,
And God the Spirit, Three in One,
Be honour, praise and majesty,
Now and throughout eternity. Amen. Topics: The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holidays: General; Apostles and Evangelists; Office Hymn Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Text Sources: Latin, c. 10th century

O God, Thy Soldiers' Crown and Guard
Author: Anonymous; John M. Neale Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O God, Thy soldiers’ crown and guard,
And their exceeding great reward;
From all transgressions set us free,
Who sing Thy martyr’s victory.
2. The pleasures of the world he spurned,
From sin’s pernicious lures he turned;
He knew their joys imbued with gall,
And thus he reached Thy heavenly hall.
3. For Thee through many a woe he ran,
In many a fight he played the man;
For Thee his blood he dared to pour,
And thence hath joy forevermore.
4. We therefore pray Thee, full of love,
Regard us from Thy throne above;
On this Thy martyr’s triumph day,
Wash every stain of sin away.
5. O Christ, most loving King, to Thee,
With God the Father, glory be;
Like glory, as is ever meet,
To God the holy Paraclete. Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Text Sources: The Hymnal Noted, 1852-54

From the dark borders of the grave?

And tell how large His goodness is;
Let all your powers rejoice and bless
While you record His holiness.

From God the Father, Virgin-Born
Author: John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 From God the Father, virgin-born
To us the only Son came down;
By death the font to consecrate,
The faithful to regenerate.
2 Beginning from his home on high,
In human flesh he came to die;
Creation by his death restored,
And shed new joys of life abroad.
3 Glide on, O glorious Sun, and bring
The gift of healing on your wing;
To ev'ry dull and clouded sense
The clearness of your light dispense.
4 Abide with us, O Lord, we pray;
The gloom of darkness chase away;
Your work of healing, Lord, begin,
And take away the stain of sin.
5 Lord, once you came to earth’s domain
And, we believe, shall come again;
Be with us on the battlefield,
From ev'ry harm your people shield.
6 To you, O Lord, all glory be
For this your blest epiphany;
To God whom all his hosts adore,
And Holy Spirit evermore. Topics: Epiphany; Baptism of Our Lord; The Baptism of Our Lord; Epiphany Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Text Sources: Latin office hymn, c. 11th cent.

My Soul Once Had Its Plenteous Years
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1. My soul once had its plenteous years,
And throve, with peace and comfort filled,
Like the fat kine and ripened ears,
Which Pharaoh in his dream beheld.
2. With pleasing frames and grace received,
With means and ordinances fed;
How happy for a while I lived,
And little feared the want of bread.
3. But famine came and left no sign
Of all the plenty I had seen;
Like the dry ears and half-starved kine,
I then looked withered, faint and lean.
4. To Joseph the Egyptians went,
To Jesus I made known my case;
He, when my little stock was spent,
Opened His magazine of grace.
5. For He the time of dearth foresaw,
And made provision long before;
That famished souls, like me, might draw
Supplies from His unbounded store.
6. Now on His bounty I depend,
And live from fear of dearth secure,
Maintained by such a mighty Friend,
I cannot want till He is poor.
7. O sinners, hear His gracious call!
His mercy’s door stands open wide,
He has enough to feed you all,
And none who come shall be denied. Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779), number 11

How Long Will Ye Despise My Name?
Author: William H. Bathurst Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: "How long will ye despise My name?" Lyrics: 1 "How long will ye despise My name?"
’Tis thus the God of mercy pleads;
:And turn My glory into shame,
And triumph in your evil deeds?"
2 "Search out your heart, and mend your ways,
That you may dwell with Me above;
Obedient faith, and thankful praise,
Such is the sacrifice I love."
3 O Lord, while others in despair
Cry, "Where is comfort to be found?"
I know that Thou wilt hear my prayer,
And let my soul with peace be crowned.
4 Thy blessings are of lasting worth,
Through endless years Thy goodness flows;
Vain are the riches of the earth
Compared with what Thy hand bestows.
5 I will lie down, and calmly sleep,
For on Thy succor I depend;
My soul in safety Thou wilt keep,
And be my never failing friend. Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Text Sources: Psalms and Hymns, 1831
