Christians, awake, salute the happy morn

Author: John Byrom, 1692-1763 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #124 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Christians, awake, salute the happy morn, Whereon the Saviour of the world was born; Rise to adore the mystery of love, Which hosts of angels chanted from above; With them the joyful tidings first begun Of God Incarnate and the Virgin's Son. 2 Then to the watchful shepherds it was told, Who heard the angelic herald's voice, "Behold, I bring good tidings of a Saviour's birth To you and all the nations upon earth: This day hath God fulfilled His promised word, This day is born a Saviour, Christ the Lord." 3 He spake; and straightway the celestial choir In hymns of joy, unknown before, conspire; The praises of redeeming love they sang, And heaven's whole orb with alleluias rang: God's highest glory was their anthem still, Peace upon earth, and unto men good will. 4 To Bethlehem straight the enlightened shepherds ran, To see the wonder God had wrought for man, And found, with Joseph and the blessed maid, Her Son, the Saviour, in a manger laid: Then to their flocks, still praising God, return, And their glad hearts with holy rapture burn. 5 O may we keep and ponder in our mind God's wondrous love in saving lost mankind; Trace we the Babe, who has retrieved our loss, From His poor manger to His bitter cross; Tread in His steps, assisted by His grace, Till man's first heavenly state again takes places. 6 Then may we hope, the angelic hosts among, To sing, redeemed, a glad triumphal song: He that was born upon this joyful day Around us all His glory shall display: Saved by His love, incessant we shall sing Eternal praise to heaven's Almighty King.

Stay, Master, Stay

Author: Samuel Greg, 1804-1876 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #127 (2011) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 First Line: Stay, Master, stay upon this heavenly hill Lyrics: 1 Stay, Master, stay upon this heavenly hill; A little longer, let us linger still; With all the mighty ones of old beside, Near to God’s holy presence still abide; Before the throne of light we trembling stand, And catch a glimpse into the spirit land. 2 Stay, Master, stay! we breathe a purer air; This life is not the life that waits us there: Thoughts, feelings, flashes, glimpses come and go; We cannot speak them, nay, we do not know; Wrapt in this cloud of light we seem to be The things we fain would grow eternally. 3 "No!" saith the Lord, "the hour is past," we go; Our home, our life, our duties lie below. While here we kneel upon the mount of prayer, The plough lies waiting in the furrow there! Here we sought God that we might know His will; There we must do it, serve Him, seek Him still. 4 If man aspires to reach the throne of God, O’er the dull plains of earth must lie the road: He who best does his lowly duty here, Shall mount the highest in a nobler sphere: At God’s own feet our spirits seek their rest, And he is nearest Him who serves Him best.
