Joyful Is the Dark

Author: Brian Wren Meter: 5.5.10.6.5.10 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 27:59-60 Lyrics: 1 Joyful is the dark, holy, hidden God, rolling cloud of night beyond all naming, majesty in darkness, energy of love, Word in flesh, the mystery proclaiming. 2 Joyful is the dark Spirit of the deep, winging wildly o’er the world’s creation, silken sheen of midnight plumage black and bright, swooping with the beauty of a raven. 3 Joyful is the dark, shadowed stable floor; angels flicker, God on earth confessing, as with exultation, Mary, giving birth, hails the infant cry of need and blessing. 4 Joyful is the dark coolness of the tomb, waiting for the wonder of the morning. Never was that midnight touched by dread and gloom: darkness was the cradle of the dawning. 5 Joyful is the dark depth of love divine, roaring, looming thundercloud of glory, holy, haunting beauty, living, loving God. Hallelujah! Sing and tell the story!

Sing, My Tongue, the Song of Triumph

Author: Fortunatus, Sixth Century Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 26, 27 Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the song of triumph, Tell the story far and wide; Tell of dread and final battle, Sing of Savior crucified; How upon the cross a victim Vanquishing in death he died. 2 He endured the nails, the spitting, Vinegar and spear and reed; From that holy body broken Blood and water forth proceed: Earth and stars and sky and ocean By that flood from stain are freed. 3 Faithful Cross, above all other, One and only noble tree, None in foliage, none in blossom, None in fruit your peer may be; Sweet and wood and sweet the iron And your burden, sweet is he. 4 Bend your boughs, O Tree of glory! All your rigid branches, bend! For a while the ancient temper That your birth bestowed, suspend; And the King of earth and heaven Gently on your bosom tend.
