All My Heart This Night Rejoices

Author: Paulus Gerhardt; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.3.3.6 D Appears in 283 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Epiphany and Youth Lyrics: 1 All my heart today rejoices, as I hear, far and near, sweetest angel voices: "Christ is born," their choirs are singing, till the air ev'rywhere now with joy is ringing. 2 Hark, a voice from yonder manger; soft and sweet doth entreat, "Flee from woe and danger; people come: from all doth grieves you, you are freed; all you need I will surely give you." 3 Come, then, let us hasten yonder; here let all, great and small, kneel in awe and wonder. Love him who with love is yearning, hail the star that from far bright with hope is burning. 4 Blessed Savior, let me find thee! Keep thou me close to thee; cast me not behind thee! Life of life, my heart thou stillest; calm I rest on thy breast: all this void thou fillest. 5 Thee, O Lord, with care I'll cherish; live to thee, and with thee dying, shall not perish; but shall dwell with thee forever, far on high in the joy that can alter never. Scripture: Matthew 2:9 Used With Tune: BONN (FRÖHLICH SOLL) Text Sources: Fröhlich soll

Thy Word the choicest rules imparts To keep the conscience clean. 2 'Tis like the sun, a heav'nly light That guides us all the day, And through the dangers of the night A lamp to lead our way. 3 The starry heav'ns Thy rule obey; The earth maintains her place; And these Thy servants, night and day Thy skill and pow'r express. 4 But still Thy Law and Gospel, Lord, Have lessons more divine; Not earth stands firmer than Thy Word, Nor stars so nobly shine. 5 Thy Word is everlasting truth; How pure is ev'ry page! That holy Book shall guide our youth And well support our age. Scripture: Psalm 119 Used With Tune: AZMON

Lord, 'Tis Not That I Did Choose Thee

Author: J. Conder, 1789-1855 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 78 hymnals Topics: Epiphany 5 Lyrics: 1 Lord, 'tis not that I did choose Thee; That, I know, could never be, For this heart would still refuse Thee Had Thy grace not chosen me. Thou hast from the sin that stained me Washed and cleansed and set me free And unto this end ordained me, That I ever live to Thee. 2 'Twas Thy grace in Christ that called me, Taught my darkened heart and mind, Else the world had yet enthralled me, To Thy heav'nly glories blind. Now my heart owns none above Thee; For Thy grace alone I thirst, Knowing well that, if I love Thee, Thou, O Lord, didst love me first. 3 Praise the God of all creation; Praise the Father's boundless love. Praise the Lamb, our Expiation, Priest and King enthroned above. Praise the Spirit of salvation, Him by whom our spirits live. Undivided adoration To the great Jehovah give.

Thy realm endures forever, In heav'n is fixed Thy throne. Help that in earth’s dominions Thro'out from pole to pole, Thy realm may spread salvation To each benighted soul. 2 The Eastern sages, bringing Their tribute gifts to Thee, Bear witness to Thy kingdom And humbly bow the knee. To Thee the star is pointing, And the prophetic Word; Hence joyously we hail Thee: Our Savior and our Lord! 3 Thou art a mighty Monarch, As by Thy Word is told, Yet carest Thou but little For earthly goods or gold; On no proud steed Thou ridest, Thou wear’st no jeweled crown Nor dwell’st in lordly castle, But bearest scoff and frown. 4 Yet art Thou decked with beauty, With rays of glorious light; Thy works proclaim Thy goodness, And all Thy ways are right. Vouchsafe to shield Thy people With Thine almighty arm That they may dwell in safety From those who mean them harm. 5 Ah, look on me with pity Though I am weak and poor; Admit me to Thy kingdom To dwell there, blest and sure. I pray Thee, guide and keep me Safe from my bitter foes, From sin and death and Satan; Free me from all my woes. 6 And bid Thy Word within me Shine as the fairest star; Keep sin and all false doctrine From all Thy people far. Help me confess Thee truly And with Thy Christendom Here own Thee King and Savior And in the world to come. Amen. Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Used With Tune: VALET WILL ICH DIR GEBEN
