As with Gladness Men of Old
Author: William C. Dix, 1837-1898 Hymnal: CWH2021 #372 (2021) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old
did the guiding star behold,
as with joy they hailed its light,
leading onward, beaming bright,
so, most gracious Lord, may we
evermore be led by thee.
2 As with joyful steps they sped,
Savior, to thy lowly bed,
there to bend the knee before
thee, whom heav’n and earth adore,
so may we with willing feet
ever seek thy mercy seat.
3 As they offered gifts most rare
at thy cradle, rude and bare,
so may we with holy joy,
pure and free from sin’s alloy,
all our costliest treasures bring,
Christ, to thee, our heav’nly King.
4 Holy Jesus, ev’ry day
keep us in the narrow way;
and, when earthly things are past,
bring our ransomed souls at last
where they need no star to guide,
where no clouds thy glory hide.
5 In the heav'nly country bright
need they no created light;
thou its light, its joy, its crown,
thou its sun which goes not down.
There forever may we sing
alleluias to our King!
Topics: Epiphany Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Languages: English Tune Title: DIX
As with Gladness Men of Old
Brightest and Best
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Hymnal: CWH2021 #373 (2021) Meter: 11.10.11.10 First Line: Brightest and best of the stars of the morning Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and lend us your aid.
Star of the east, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
2 Cold on his cradle the dewdrops are shining;
low lies his head with the beasts of the stall.
Angels adore him in slumber reclining,
maker and monarch and Savior of all.
3 Shall we yield him in costly devotion
rarest of fragrances, tribute divine,
gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,
myrrh from the forest and gold from the mine?
4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
vainly with gifts would his favor secure.
Richer by far is the heart's adoration,
dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.
5 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
dawn on our darkness and lend us your aid.
Star of the east, the horizon adorning,
guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
Topics: Epiphany Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Languages: English Tune Title: O QUANTA QUALIA

The Star Proclaims the King Is Here
Author: Coelius Sedulius, 5th cent.; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: CWH2021 #374 (2021) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The star proclaims the King is here;
but, Herod, why this senseless fear?
For he who came from heaven's throne
does not desire an earthly crown.
2 The eastern Magi saw from far
and followed on his guiding star,
and, led by light, to Light they pressed
and by their gifts their God confessed.
3 Within the Jordan River stood
the pure and holy Lamb of God;
the father's voice, the Spirit-dove,
confirmed the Savior from above.
4 At Cana, miracle divine,
when water reddened into wine,
the faithful saw his glory shown
and put their trust in him alone.
5 All glory unto Jesus be
and praise for his epiphany,
whom with the Father we adore
and Holy Spirit evermore. Topics: Epiphany Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Languages: English Tune Title: WO GOTT ZUM HAUS

God's glory breaks like dawn.
For though the earth be cloaked in night
and gloom shrouds ev'ryone,
yet over you the Lord will rise,
with glory gleaming clear,
till nations turn to seek your light
and humbled kings draw near.
2 Fling wide your gates, both day and night;
no more keep watch or guard.
You will be called God's holy hill,
the city of the Lord.
No sound of strife will plague your land,
nor harm besiege your ways;
"Salvation" will you name your walls,
and all your portals "Praise."
3 No more will you implore the sun
to shed by day its light,
nor will you need the changeful moon
to glisten through the night.
Your glory then will be your God,
whose light will never cease.
Rise up and shine! Your light has come
to give you joy and peace. Topics: Epiphany Scripture: Isaiah 60 Languages: English Tune Title: FOREST GREEN

Jesus Shall Reign Where'er the Sun
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: CWH2021 #380 (2021) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
does its successive journeys run;
his kingdom stretch from shore to shore
till moons shall wax and wane no more.
2 To him shall endless prayer be made
and endless praises crown his head;
his name like sweet perfume shall rise
with ev'ry morning sacrifice.
3 People and realms of ev'ry tongue
dwell on his love with sweetest song,
and infant voices shall proclaim
their early blessings on his name.
4 Blessings abound where'er he reigns:
the prisoners leap, unloosed their chains,
the weary find eternal rest,
and all who suffer want are blest.
5 Let ev'ry creature rise and bring
worship and honor to our King;
angels descend with songs again,
and earth repeat the loud amen. Topics: Epiphany Scripture: Psalm 72 Languages: English Tune Title: DUKE STREET
