5 Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me,
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.

O God, You Gave Your Servant John
Author: Joy F. Patterson Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 O Lord, you gave your servant John
a vision of the world to come:
a radiant city filled with light,
where you with us will make your home;
where neither grief nor pain shall dwell,
since former things have passed away,
and where they need no sun nor moon;
your glory lights eternal day.
2 Our cities wear great shrouds of pain;
beneath our gleaming towers of wealth
the homeless crouch in rain and snow,
the poor cry out for strength and health.
Youth’s hope is dimmed by ignorance;
unwilling, workers idled stand;
indifference walks unheeding by
as hunger stretches out its hand.
3 Come, Lord, make real John’s vision fair;
come, dwell with us, make all things new;
we try in vain to save our world
unless our help shall come from you.
Come, strengthen us to live in love;
bid hatred, greed, injustice cease.
Your glory all the light we need,
let all our cities shine forth peace.

O God, You Gave Your Servant John
Lord, it is good for us to be
Author: Arthur P. Stanley Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 67 hymnals Lyrics:
Lord, it is good for us to be
High on the mountain here with thee;
Where stand revealed to mortal gaze
Those glorious saints of other days;
Who once received on Horeb's height
Th'eternal laws of truth and right;
Or caught the still small whisper, higher
Than storm, than earthquake, or than fire.
Lord, it is good for us to be
Entranced, enwrapt, alone with thee;
And watch thy glistering raiment glow
Whiter than Hermon's whitest snow,
The human lineaments that shine
Irradiant with a light divine:
Till we too change from grace to grace,
Gazing on that transfigured face.
Lord, it is good for us to be
Here on the holy mount with thee;
When darkling in the depths of night,
When dazzled with excess of light,
263
We bow before the heavenly voice
That bids bewildered souls rejoice,
Though love wax cold, and faith be dim,
"This is my Son; O hear ye him!"
Amen.

The world Was Hushed in Silence Deep
Author: Mrs. S. K. Bourne Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The world was hushed in silence deep,
The waiting shepherds watched their sheep,
When came the joyful angel throng,
And list’ning ages caught their song.
O glorious song! O blessed story!
It floats along from realms of glory,
Each Christmas day it comes again,—
“On earth be peace! goodwill to men!”
2 A wondrous star was sent to shine,
And show the world the Babe divine;
And from the East the wise men came,
With royal honors to His name.
O guiding star, so brightly beaming!
From ages far thy radiance streaming,
Still draws the nations to His feet
The Babe of Bethlehem to greet!
3 ‘Twas Love that brought Him here to earth,
‘Twas Love that plann’d His humble birth,
‘Tis Love that draws us to Him now,
And bids us at His feet to bow.
O holy Love! in fullest measure,
We bring to Thee our richest treasure,
To grace Thy glowing diadem,
O blessed Babe of Bethlehem! Topics: Christmas Used With Tune: KENT
