O God, Who by a Star Did Guide

Author: John Mason Neale Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 67 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God, who by a star did guide The Wise Men on their way, Until it came and stood beside The place where Jesus lay. 2 Although by stars you do not lead Your servants now below, Your Holy Spirit, when they need, Will show them how to go. 3 As yet we know you but in part, But still we trust your word That blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see the Lord. 4 O Savior, give us then your grace For pure in heart we'd be, That we may see you, face to face, Through all eternity. Amen. Topics: Christian Year Epiphany Scripture: Matthew 2:9-10 Used With Tune: ST. BERNARD

Ye who the Name of Jesus bear

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ye who the Name of Jesus bear, his sacred steps pursue; and let that mind which was in him be also found in you. 2 Though in the form of God he was, his only Son declar'd, nor to be equally ador'd as robb’ry did regard; 3 His greatness he for us abas'd, for us his glory vail'd; in human likeness dwelt on earth, his majesty conceal'd: 4 nor only as a man appears, but stoops a servant low; submits to death, nay, bears the cross, in all its shame and woe. 5 Hence God this gen’rous love to men with honours just hath crown'd, and rais'd the name of Jesus far above all names renown'd: 6 That at this name, with sacred awe, each humble knee should bow of hosts immortal in the skies, and nations spread below: 7 That all the prostrate pow’rs of hell might tremble at his word, and ev’ry tribe, and ev’ry tongue, confess that he is Lord. Scripture: Philippians 2:6-12 Used With Tune: ST BERNARD

All that I Was, My Sin, My Guilt

Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 120 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All that I was, my sin, my guilt, My death, was all mine own; All that I am I owe to Thee, My gracious God, alone. 2 The evil of my former state Was mine, and only mine; The good in which I now rejoice Is Thine, and only Thine. 3 The darkness of my former state, The bondage, all was mine; The light of life in which I walk, The liberty, is Thine. 4 Thy Word first made me feel my sin, It taught me to believe; Then, in believing, peace I found, And now I live, I live! 5 All that I am, e'en here on earth, All that I hope to be, When Jesus comes and glory dawns, I owe it, Lord, to Thee. Amen. Topics: Faith and Justification Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:10 Used With Tune: ST. BERNARD

I waited for the Lord my God

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 66 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I waited for the Lord my God, and patiently did bear; at length to me he did incline my voice and cry to hear. 2 He took me from a fearful pit, and from the miry clay, and on a rock he set my feet, establishing my way. 3 He put a new song in my mouth, our God to magnify: many shall see it, and shall fear, and on the Lord rely. 4 To do thy will I take delight, O thou my God that art; yea, that most holy law of thine I have within my heart. 5 In thee let all be glad, and joy, who seeking thee abide; who thy salvation love, say still, the Lord be magnified.

Thou hast been favourable, Lord

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thou hast been favourable, Lord, to thy beloved land; Jacob’s captivity thou hast recalled with mighty hand. 2 Thou pardoned thy people hast all their iniquities; thou all their trespasses and sins hast covered from thine eyes. 3 Thou hast thine anger all withdrawn, turned from thy furiousness; 4 O God of our salvation, turn and cause thy wrath to cease. 5 Shall thy displeasure thus endure against us without end? Wilt thou to generations all thine anger still extend? 6 That in thee may thy people joy, wilt thou not us revive? 7 Show us thy mercy, Lord, to us do thy salvation give. 8 I’ll hear what God the Lord will speak: to his folk he’ll speak peace, and to his saints; but let them not return to foolishness. 9 Surely to them that fear the Lord is his salvation near; that glory in our land again a dweller may appear. 10 Truth met with mercy, righteousness and peace kiss mutually: 11 truth springs from earth, and righteousness looks down from heaven high. 12 Yea, what is good the Lord shall give; our land shall yield increase: 13 justice, to set us in his steps, shall go before his face.
