Hymn for Christmas

Author: Croswell Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 14 hymnals First Line: Now gird your patient loins again Lyrics: Now gird your patient loins again, Your wasting torches trim! The chief of all the sons of men, Shall we not welcome him? Fill all his courts with sacred songs, And from the temple wall Wave garlands o’er the joyful throngs That crowd his festival! And still more freshly in the mind Store up the hopes sublime Which then were born for all mankind, So blessed was the time; And, underneath these hallowed eaves, A Saviour will be born In every heart that him receives, On his triumphal morn.

The Reformers

Author: Nicoll Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 13 hymnals First Line: An offering at the shrine of power Lyrics: An offering at the shrine of power Our hands shall never bring; A garland on the car of pomp Our hands shall never fling; Applauding in the conqueror’s path Our voices ne’er shall be; But we have hearts to honor those Who bade the world go free! Praise to the good, the pure, the great, Who made us what we are,— Who lit the flame which yet shall glow With radiance brighter far! Glory to them in coming time, And through eternity, Who burst the captive’s galling chain, And bade the world go free!

Too Many, Lord, Abuse Thy Grace

Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1. Too many, Lord, abuse Thy grace, In this licentious day; And while they boast they see Thy face, They turn their own away. 2. Thy Book displays a gracious light That can the blind restore; But these are dazzled by the sight, And blinded still the more. 3. The pardon, such presume upon, They do not beg, but steal; And when they plead it at Thy throne, Oh! where’s the Spirit’s seal? 4. Was it for this, ye lawless tribe, The dear Redeemer bled? Is this the grace the saints imbibe From Christ the living Head? 5. Ah, Lord, we know Thy chosen few Are fed with heavenly fare; But these, the wretched husks they chew Proclaim them what they are. 6. The liberty our hearts implore Is not to live in sin; But still to wait at wisdom’s door, Till mercy calls us in. Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779)

According to Thy Gracious Word

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 550 hymnals Lyrics: 1 According to thy gracious word, in meek humility this will I do, my loving Lord: I will remember thee. 2 Thy body, given for my sake, my bread from heaven shall be; thy testamental cup I take, and thus remember thee. 3 Gethsemane can I forget, or there thy conflict see, thine agony and bloody sweat, and not remember thee? 4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes and rest on Calvary, O Lamb of God, my sacrifice, I must remember thee. 5 And when these failing lips grow dumb, and mind and memory flee, when thou shalt in thy kingdom come, then, Lord, remember me.
