The Sky Can Still Remember

Author: Phillips Brooks Hymnal: H4BG1935 #42 (1936) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 The sky can still remember The earliest Christmas morn, When in the cold December The Saviour Christ was born. No star unfolds its glory, No trumpet wind is blown, But tells the Christmas story In music of its own. 2 O never-failing splendor! O never-silent song! Still keep the green earth tender, Still keep the gray earth strong, Still keep the brave earth dreaming Of deeds that shall be done, While children’s lives come streaming Like sunbeams from the sun. 3 O angels sweet and splendid, Throng in our hearts and sing The wonders which attended The coming of the King. Till we too, boldly pressing Where once the shepherds trod, Climb Bethlehem’s Hill of Blessing, And find the Son of God. Amen. Topics: Christmas Tune Title: CHENIES

Saw You Never in the Twilight

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: H4BG1935 #43 (1936) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Saw you never, in the twilight, When the sun had left the skies, Up in heav'n the clear stars shining Thro' the gloom, like silver eyes? So of old the wise men, watching, Saw a little stranger star, And they knew the King was given, And they follow'd it from far. 2 Heard you never of the story How they crossed the desert wild, Journeyed on by plain and mountain, Till they found the holy Child? How they opened all their treasure, Kneeling to that infant King; Gave the gold and fragrant incense, Gave the myrrh in offering? 3 Know ye not that lowly baby Was the bright and morning Star? He who came to light the Gentiles, And the darken'd isles afar? And we, too, may seek his cradle; There our hearts' best treasures bring; Love, and faith, and true devotion For our Saviour, God, and King. Amen. Topics: Epiphany Tune Title: THE STAR

Hosanna! Loud Hosanna

Author: Jeannette Threlfall Hymnal: H4BG1935 #44 (1936) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: Hosanna! loud hosanna! Lyrics: 1 Hosanna! loud hosanna! The little children sang; Thro' pillared court and temple The glorious anthem rang; To Jesus, who had blessed them, Close folded to His breast, The children sang their praises, The simplest and the best. 2 From Olivet they followed, 'Midst an exultant crowd, Waving the victor palm-branch, And chanting clear and loud; Bright angels joined the chorus Beyond the cloudless sky- "Hosanna in the highest' Glory to God on high!" 3 "Hosanna in the highest!" That ancient song we sing; For Christ is our Redeemer, The Lord of heaven our King. O may we ever praise Him With heart, and life, and voice, And in his radiant presence Eternally rejoice. Amen.
