O Christ, for Thine own glory, And for our country's weal, We humbly plead before Thee, Thyself in us reveal; And may we know, Lord Jesus, The touch of Thy dear hand; And, healed of our diseases, The tempter's pow'r withstand. 3. Where error smites with blindess, Enslaves and leads astray, Do Thou in loving-kindness Proclaim Thy gospel day; Till all the tribes and races That dwell in this fair land, Aodrned with Christian graces, Within Thy courts shall stand. 4. Our Savior, King, defend us, And guide where we should go; Forth with Thy message send us, Thy love and light to show; Till, fired with true devotion Enkindled by Thy Word, From ocean unto ocean Our land shall own Thee Lord.

That Song of Old

Author: E. H. Sears Appears in 904 hymnals Topics: Special Occasions Christmas; Special Occasions Christmas First Line: It came upon the midnight clear Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold; "Peace on the earth, good will to men, From heav'n's all-gracious King." The world in solemn stillness lay, To hear the angels sing. 2 Still thro' the open skies they come, With peaceful wing unfurled; And still their heav'nly music floats O'er all the weary world; Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hov'ring wing, And ever o'er its Babel sounds The blessed angels sing. 3 But with the woes of sin and strife The world has suffered long; Beneath the angel-strain have rolled Two thousand years of wrong; And man, at war with man, hears not The love-song which they bring; O cease, ye mortals, cease your strife, And hear the angels sing!
