A King Might Miss the Guiding Star
Author: Louis F. Benson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3548 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1. A king might miss the guiding star,
A wise man’s foot might stumble;
For Bethlehem is very far
From all except the humble.
’Tis Christmas Day! ’Tis Christmas Day!
And Christian hearts are humble.
2. Some pilgrims seek a hallowed shrine;
Some soldiers march to danger;
Some travelers seek an inn—its sign
The Baby in a manger.
When Christ was born on Christmas morn,
They laid Him in a manger.
3. There is no palace in that place,
Nor any seat of learning,
No hilltop vision of God’s face,
No altar candles burning:
O come and see our Christmas tree
And Christmas candles burning.
4. But he who gets to Bethlehem
Shall hear the oxen lowing;
And, if he humbly kneel with them,
May catch far trumpets blowing;
From far away, on Christmas Day,
May hear God’s trumpets blowing. Languages: English Tune Title: BIS WILKOMMEN
A King Might Miss the Guiding Star
Judge Eternal, Throned in Splendor
Author: Henry S. Holland Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #576 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Judge eternal, throned in splendor,
Lord of lords and King of kings,
With Thy living fire of judgment
Purge this realm of bitter things;
Solace all its wide dominion
With the healing of Thy wings.
2 Still the weary folk are pining
For the hour that brings release;
And the city's crowded clangor
Cries aloud for sin to cease;
And the homesteads and the woodlands
Plead in silence for their peace.
3 Crown, O God, Thine own endeavor;
Cleave our darkness with Thy sword;
Feed the faint and hungry peoples
With the richness of Thy Word;
Cleanse the body of this nation
Thro' the glory of the Lord.
Amen.

Judge Eternal, Throned in Splendor
When we pass through yonder river
Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: Church Book #576 (1890) Meter: 8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 When we pass through yonder river,
When we reach the farther shore,
There's an end of war for ever;
We shall see our foes no more:
All our conflicts then shall cease,
Followed by eternal peace.
2 O that hope, how bright, how glorious!
'Tis His people's blest reward;
In the Saviour's strength victorious,
They at length behold their Lord:
In His kingdom they shall rest,
In His love be fully blest. Topics: Death and Eternity Heaven; Ascension Day; Twenty Sixth Sunday after Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: WER SIND DIE VOR GOTTES TRONE
