Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
Author: St John of Damascus, c. 750; J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 383 hymnals Topics: The Christian Year Eastertide Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
Of triumphant gladness;
God hath brought His Israel
Into joy from sadness;
Loosed from Pharoah's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters;
Led them with unmoistened foot
Through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls to-day:
Christ hath burst His prison,
And from three days' sleep in death
As a sun hath risen;
All the winter of our sins,
Long and dark, is flying
From his light, to whom we give
Laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons, bright
With the day of splendour,
With the royal feast of feasts,
Comes its joy to render;
Comes to glad Jerusalem,
Who with true affection
Welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesu's Resurrection.
4 Neither might the gates of death,
Nor the tomb's dark portal,
Nor the watchers, nor the seal,
Hold thee as a mortal;
But today amidst thine own
Thou didst stand, bestowing
That thy peace which evermore
Passeth human knowing. Used With Tune: AVE VIRGO VIRGINUM Text Sources: Greek
Come, ye faithful, raise the strain

Once He Came in Blessing
Author: Jan Roh; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Appears in 32 hymnals Topics: Advent; Christian year--Advent; Christian year--Advent; Confession of Sin; Forgiveness Lyrics: 1 Once he came in blessing
all our sins redressing,
came in likeness lowly,
Son of God most holy;
bore the cross to save us,
hope and freedom gave us.
2 Still he comes within us,
still his voice would win us
from the sins that hurt us;
would to truth convert us
from our foolish error
ere he comes in terror.
3 Thus if we have known him,
not ashamed to own him,
nor have spurned him coldly,
but will trust him boldly,
he will then receive us,
heal us, and forgive us.
4 Those who then are loyal
find a welcome royal.
Come then, O Lord Jesus,
from our sins release us;
let us here confess you
till in heav'n we bless you. Scripture: Matthew 1:23 Used With Tune: AVE HIERARCHIA

On prostrate death thou treadest,
And with thy blood dost mark the road
Whereby to heaven thou leadest.

Which thou hast borne with anguish,
Steeped in the tide from thy rent side;
O leave us not to languish!

Henceforth dost thou inherit;
Now comes the hour--then gently shower
On us thy promised Spirit!

O Sing a Song of Bethlehem
Author: Louis F. Benson Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 66 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Christmas; The Grace of Jesus Christ In Praise of Christ; Children's Choir Selections; Christian Year Christmas; Jesus Christ; Salvation Lyrics: 1. O sing a song of Bethlehem,
of shepherds watching there,
and of the news that came to them
from angels in the air.
The light that shone on Bethlehem
fills all the world today;
of Jesus' birth and peace on earth
the angels sing alway.
2. O sing a song of Nazareth,
of sunny days of joy;
O sing of fragrant flowers' breath,
and of the sinless Boy.
For now the flowers of Nazareth
in every heart may grow;
now spreads the fame of his dear name
on all the winds that blow.
3. O sing a song of Galilee,
of lake and woods and hill,
of him who walked upon the sea
and bade the waves be still.
For though like waves on Galilee,
dark seas of trouble roll,
when faith has heard the Master's word,
falls peace upon the soul.
4. O sing a song of Calvary,
its glory and dismay,
of him who hung upon the tree,
and took our sins away.
For he who died on Calvary
is risen from the grave,
and Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored,
is mighty now to save.
Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD
