Sing of God Made Manifest
Author: Carl P. Daw Jr. Hymnal: Glory to God #156 (2013) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Christian Year Baptism of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Sing of God made manifest
in a child robust and blest,
to whose home in Bethlehem
where a star had guided them,
magi came and gifts unbound,
signs mysterious and profound:
myrrh and frankincense and gold
grave and God and king foretold.
2 Sing of God made manifest
when at Jordan John confessed,
“I should be baptized by you,
but your bidding I will do.”
Then from heaven a double sign –
dove-like Spirit, voice divine –
hailed the true Anointed One:
“This is my beloved Son.”
3 Sing of God made manifest
when Christ came as wedding guest
and at Cana gave a sign,
turning water into wine;
further still was love revealed
as he taught, forgave, and healed,
bringing light and life to all
who would listen to God’s call.
4 Sing of God made manifest
on the cloud-capped mountain’s crest,
where the law and prophets waned
so that Christ alone remained:
glimpse of glory, pledge of grace,
given as Jesus set his face
towards the waiting cross and grave,
sign of hope that God would save. Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Languages: English Tune Title: SALZBURG

I Danced in the Morning
Author: Sydney Carter Hymnal: Glory to God #157 (2013) Meter: Irregular Topics: Christian Year Baptism of Jesus First Line: I danced in the morning when the world was begun Refrain First Line: Dance, then, wherever you may be Lyrics: 1 I danced in the morning when the world was begun,
and I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun,
and I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth.
At Bethlehem I had my birth.
Refrain:
Dance, then, wherever you may be;
I am the Lord of the Dance, said he,
and I'll lead you all, wherever you may be,
and I'll lead you all in the dance, said he.
2 I danced for the scribe and the Pharisee,
but they would not dance and they would not follow me.
I danced for the fishermen, for James and John.
They came with me and the dance went on. [Refrain]
3 I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame.
The holy people said it was a shame.
They whipped and they stripped and they hung me high,
and left me there on a cross to die. [Refrain]
4 I danced on a Friday when the sky turned black.
It's hard to dance with the devil on your back.
They buried my body and they thought I'd gone,
but I am the dance and I still go on. [Refrain]
5 They cut me down and I leapt up high.
I am the life that will never, never die.
I'll live in you if you'll live in me,
I am the Lord of the Dance, said he. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 11:17 Languages: English Tune Title: LORD OF THE DANCE

When Christ's Appearing Was Made Known
Author: Caelius Sedulius (5th cent.?); John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #163 (1998) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Baptism of Jesus Lyrics: 1 When Christ’s appearing was made known,
King Herod trembled for his throne;
but he who offers heavenly birth
sought not the kingdom of this earth.
2 The eastern sages saw from far
and followed on his guiding star;
by light their way to Light they trod,
and by their gifts confessed their God.
3 Within the Jordan’s sacred flood
the heavenly Lamb in meekness stood,
that he, to whom no sin was known,
might cleanse his people from their own.
4 And O what a miracle divine,
when water reddened into wine!
He spake the word, and forth it flowed
in streams that nature ne’er bestowed.
5 All glory, Jesus, be to thee
for this thy glad Epiphany:
whom with the Father we adore
and Holy Ghost forevermore. Scripture: Matthew 2 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. VENANTIUS

Lord, Who throughout These Forty Days
Author: Claudia F. I. Hernaman Hymnal: Glory to God #166 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Year Baptism of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Lord, who throughout these forty days
for us did fast and pray,
teach us with you to mourn our sins
and close by you to stay.
2 As you with Satan did contend
and did the victory win,
O give us strength to persevere,
in you to conquer sin.
3 And through these days of penitence,
and through this Passiontide,
yes, evermore, in life and death,
O Lord, with us abide.
4 Abide with us, till when this life
of suffering shall be past,
an Easter of unending joy
we may attain at last.

Dear Lord and Father of Mankind
Author: John Greenleaf Whittier Hymnal: Glory to God #169 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Topics: Christian Year Baptism of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
forgive our foolish ways;
reclothe us in our rightful mind,
in purer lives thy service find,
in deeper reverence, praise.
2 In simple trust like theirs who heard
beside the Syrian sea
the gracious calling of the Lord,
let us, like them, without a word
rise up and follow thee.
3 O Sabbath rest by Galilee,
O calm of hills above,
where Jesus knelt to share with thee
the silence of eternity,
interpreted by love!
4 Drop thy still dews of quietness,
till all our strivings cease;
take from our souls the strain and stress,
and let our ordered lives confess
the beauty of thy peace.
5 Breathe through the heats of our desire
thy coolness and thy balm;
let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still, small voice of calm!
Scripture: 1 Kings 9:1-13 Languages: English Tune Title: REST
Dear Lord and Father of Mankind
