Son of God, eternal Saviour
Author: S. C. Lowry, 1855-1932 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 62 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 2:14 Lyrics: 1 Son of God, eternal Saviour,
source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
hallows all our human race,
thou, our Head, who, throned in glory,
for thine own dost ever plead,
fill us with thy love and pity;
heal our wrongs, and help our need.
*2 As thou, Lord, hast lived for others,
so may we for others live;
freely have thy gifts been granted,
freely may thy servants give:
thine the gold and thine the silver,
thine the wealth of land and sea,
we but stewards of thy bounty,
held in solemn trust for thee.
3 Come, O Christ, and reign among us,
King of love, and Prince of peace;
hush the storm of strife and passion,
bid its cruel discords cease;
by thy patient years of toiling,
by thy silent hours of pain,
quench our fevered thirst of pleasure,
shame our selfish greed of gain.
4 Son of God, eternal Saviour,
source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
hallows all our human race,
thou who prayedst, thou who willest,
that thy people should be one,
grant, O grant our hope's fruition:
here on earth thy will be done. Topics: Epiphany IV Year B; Proper 7 Year B; Proper 18 Year B Used With Tune: EVERTON

Ye saints, proclaim abroad
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 40 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 2:16 Lyrics: 1 Ye saints, proclaim abroad
The honours of your king;
To Jesus your incarnate God,
Your songs of praises sing.
2 Not angels round the throne
Of majesty above,
Are half so much oblig'd as we,
To our Immanuel's love.
3 They never sunk so low,
They are not rais'd so high;
They never knew such depths of wo,
Such heights of majesty.
4 The Saviour did not join
Their nature to his own;
For them he shed no blood divine,
Nor breath'd a single groan.
5 May we with angels vie,
The Saviour to adore;
Our debts are greater far than theirs,
O be our praises more! Topics: Christ Incarnation; The birth of Christ joy to the world
Ye saints, proclaim abroad

When the Church of Jesus
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 2:14-17 Lyrics: 1 When the church of Jesus shuts its outer door,
lest the roar of traffic drown the voice of prayer:
may our prayers, Lord, make us ten times more aware
that the world we banish is our Christian care.
2 If our hearts are lifted where devotion soars
high above this hungry, suffering world of ours:
lest our hymns should drug us to forget its needs,
forge our Christian worship into Christian deeds.
3 Lest the gifts we offer, money, talents, time,
serve to salve our conscience, to our secret shame:
Lord, reprove, inspire us by the way you give;
teach us, dying Savior, how true Christians live.
