Lord of all being, throned afar

Author: Oliver Wendell Holmes, 1809-1894 Hymnal: Common Praise #506 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: John 1:4 Lyrics: 1 Lord of all being, throned afar, thy glory flames from sun and star; centre and soul of every sphere, yet to each loving heart how near! 2 Sun of our life, thy quickening ray sheds on our path the glow of day; star of our hope, thy softened light cheers the long watches of the night. 3 Our midnight is thy smile withdrawn, our noontide is thy gracious dawn, our rainbow arch thy mercy's sign; all, save the clouds of sin, are thine. 4 Lord of all life, below, above, whose light is truth, whose warmth is love, before thy ever-blazing throne we ask no lustre of our own. 5 Grant us thy truth to make us free, and kindling hearts that burn for thee, till all thy living altars claim one holy light, one heavenly flame.

Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all, and his shelter was a stable, and his cradle was a stall. With the poor and meek and lowly lived on earth our Saviour holy. 3 And our eyes at last shall see him, through his own redeeming love; for that Child so dear and helpless is our Lord in heaven above; and he leads his children on to the place where he is gone. 4 Not in that poor lowly stable, with the oxen standing by, we shall see him; but in heaven, set at God's right hand on high, where his children gather round, bright like stars, with glory crowned.
