St Patrick's Breastplate

Alexander, 1818-95 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #159 (1986) Meter: Irregular Topics: The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holy Days: Proper First Line: I bind unto myself today Lyrics: 1 I bind unto myself today The strong name of the Trinity, By invocation of the same, The Three in One, and One in Three. 2 I bind this day to me for ever, By power of faith, Christ’s Incarnation; His baptism in Jordan river; His death on Cross for my salvation; His bursting from the spicèd tomb; His riding up the heavenly way; His coming at the day of doom; I bind unto myself today. 3 I bind unto myself the power Of the great love of Cherubim; The sweet 'Well done' in judgement hour; The service of the Seraphim, Confessors' faith, Apostles' word, The Patriarchs' prayers, the Prophets' scrolls, All good deeds done unto the Lord, And purity of virgin souls. 4 I bind unto myself today The virtues of the star-lit heaven, The glorious sun’s life-giving ray, The whiteness of the moon at even, The flashing of the lightning free, The whirling wind’s tempestuous shocks, The stable earth, the deep salt sea, Around the old eternal rocks. 5 I bind unto myself today The power of God to hold and lead, His eye to watch, his might to stay, His ear to hearken to my need. The wisdom of my God to teach, His hand to guide, his shield to ward; The word of God to give me speech, His heavenly host to be my guard. 6 I bind unto myself the name, The strong name of the Trinity; By invocation of the same, The Three in One, and One in Three. Of whom all nature hath creation; Eternal Father, Spirit, Word: Praise to the Lord of my salvation, Salvation is of Christ the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: ST PATRICK'S BREASTPLATE

The highest and the holiest place

Author: Henry Alford, 1810-71 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #165 (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holy Days: Proper Lyrics: 1 The highest and the holiest place Guards not the heart from sin; The Church that safest seems without May harbor foes within. 2 Within that small and chosen band, Beloved above the rest, One fell from his apostleship, A traitor soul unblest. 3 But ne'er the great designs of God Man’s sins shall overthrow; A better witness to the truth Forth to the lands shall go. 4 Matthias was the chosen one-- God's purpose cannot fail-- The word of grace no less shall sound, The truth no less prevail. 5 Righteous, O Lord, are all thy ways: Long as the worlds endure, From foes without and foes within Preserve thy Church secure.
