Come, Ye Saints, Look Here and Wonder

See the place where Jesus lay:
He has burst His bands asunder;
He has borne our sins away;
Joyful tidings, joyful tidings,
Yes, the Lord has ris’n today,
Yes, the Lord has ris’n today!

By His death He overcame;
Thus the Lord His glory raises,
Thus He fills His foes with shame;
Sing ye praises, sing ye praises,
Praises to the victor’s name,
Praises to the victor’s name!
3. Jesus triumphs! countless legions
Come from Heav’n to meet their king;
Soon, in yonder blessèd regions,
They shall join His praise to sing:
Songs eternal, songs eternal,
Shall through Heav’n’s high arches ring,
Shall through Heav’n’s high arches ring! Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA Text Sources: Hymns &c., 1809

from her groans and travail cease;
let the glorious proclamation
hope restore and faith increase:
Christ is coming! Christ is coming!
Come, Thou blessed Prince of Peace,
come, Thou blessed Prince of Peace.

Of Thy bitter cross and pain;
she shall yet behold Thy glory,
When Thou comest back to reign:
Christ is coming! Christ is coming!
Let each heart repeat the strain,
let each heart repeat the strain.
3 Long Thine exiles have been pining,
far from rest, and home, and Thee;
but, in heav'nly vestures shining,
they their loving Lord shall see:
Christ is coming! Christ is coming!
Haste the joyous jubilee,
haste the joyous jubilee.
4 With that blessed hope before us,
let no harp remain unstrung;
let the mighty advent chorus
onward roll from tongue to tongue:

Come, Lord Jesus, quickly come,
come, Lord Jesus, quickly come!" Topics: Jesus Christ Advent Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA

Whate'er My God Ordains Is Right
Author: Samuel Rodigast; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 77 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Whate’er my God ordains is right:
His holy will abideth;
I will be still whate’er He doth;
And follow where He guideth;
He is my God; though dark my road,
He holds me that I shall not fall:
Wherefore to Him I leave it all.
2. Whate’er my God ordains is right:
He never will deceive me;
He leads me by the proper path:
I know He will not leave me.
I take, content, what He hath sent;
His hand can turn my griefs away,
And patiently I wait His day.
3. Whate’er my God ordains is right:
His loving thought attends me;
No poison can be in the cup
That my physician sends me.
My God is true; each morn anew
I’ll trust His grace unending,
My life to Him commending.
4. Whate’er my God ordains is right:
He is my friend and Father;
He suffers naught to do me harm,
Though many storms may gather,
Now I may know both joy and woe,
Some day I shall see clearly
That He hath loved me dearly.
5. Whate’er my God ordains is right:
Though now this cup, in drinking,
May bitter seem to my faint heart,
I take it, all unshrinking.
My God is true; each morn anew
Sweet comfort yet shall fill my heart,
And pain and sorrow shall depart.
6. Whate’er my God ordains is right:
Here shall my stand be taken;
Though sorrow, need, or death be mine,
Yet I am not forsaken.
My Father’s care is round me there;
He holds me that I shall not fall:
And so to Him I leave it all. Used With Tune: GASTORIUS

For the Healing of the Nations
Author: Fred Kaan Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 59 hymnals Lyrics: 1 For the healing of the nations,
Lord, we pray with one accord;
for a just and equal sharing
of the things that earth affords;
to a life of love in action
help us rise and pledge our word,
help us rise and pledge our word.
2 Lead us forward into freedom;
from despair your world release,
that, redeemed from war and hatred,
all may come and go in peace.
Show us how through care and goodness
fear will die and hope increase,
fear will die and hope increase.
3 All that kills abundant living,
let it from the earth be banned;
pride of status, race, or schooling,
dogmas that obscure your plan.
In our common quest for justice
may we hallow life's brief span,
may we hallow life's brief span.
4 You, Creator God, have written
your great name on humankind;
for our growing in your likeness
bring the life of Christ to mind,
that by our response and service
earth its destiny may find,
earth its destiny may find. Topics: God's World Justice and Righteousness; God: Image; God: Righteousness; Justice; Peace on Earth; Reconciliation; Righteousness Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA

Infant Holy, Infant Lowly
Author: Edith M. G. Reed, 1885-1933 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 103 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Infant holy, infant lowly,
for his bed a cattle stall;
oxen lowing, little knowing
Christ the babe is Lord of all.
Swift are winging angels singing,
noels ringing, tidings bringing:
Christ the babe is Lord of all.
Christ the babe is Lord of all.
2 Flocks were sleeping: shepherds keeping
vigil till the morning new
saw the glory, heard the story,
tidings of a Gospel true.
Thus rejoicing, free from sorrow,
praises voicing greet the morrow:
Christ the babe was born for you.
Christ the babe was born for you. Scripture: John 3:16 Used With Tune: W ZLOBIE LEZY Text Sources: Polish carol

Was Gott Tut, Das Ist Wohlgetan
Author: Samuel Rodigast Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 27 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan,
So denken Gottes Kinder.
Er sieht sie oft gar strenge an
Und lieb sie doch nicht minder;
Er zieht ihr Herz nur himmelwärts,
Wenn er sie lässt auf Erden
Ein Ziel der Plagen werden.
2 Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan.
Gibt er, so kann man nehmen;
Nimmt er, wir sind nicht übler dran,
Wenn wir uns nur bequemen.
Die Linke schmerzt, die Rechte herzt,
Und beide Hände müssen
Wir doch in Demut küssen.
3 Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan,
Er weist uns oft den Segen,
Und eh er noch gedeihen kann,
Muss sich die Hoffnung legen.
Weil er allein der Schatz will sein,
So macht er andre Güter
Durch den Verlust uns bitter. Used With Tune: GASTORIUS

Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah

Pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but Thou art mighty;
Hold me with Thy pow'rful hand;
Bread of Heaven, Bread of Heaven,
Feed me till I want no more,
Feed me till I want no more.
2 Open now the crystal fountain,
Whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through;
Strong Deliv'rer, strong Deliv'rer,
Be Thou still my strength and shield,
Be Thou still my strength and shield.
3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside;
Bear me through the swelling current,
Land me safe on Canaan's side;
Songs of praises, songs of praises
I will ever give to Thee,
I will ever give to Thee. Topics: Walking with God Guidance and Care Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA

Let Us Rise in Early Morning
Author: John of Damascus; John M. Neale Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Let us rise in early morning,
And, instead of ointments, bring
Hymns of praises to our Master,
And His Resurrection sing:
We shall see the Sun of Justice
Ris’n with healing on His wing,
Ris’n with healing on His wing.
2. Thy unbounded loving-kindness,
They that groaned in Hades’ chain,
Prisoners, from afar beholding,
Hasten to the light again
And to that eternal Pascha
Wove the dance and raised the strain,
Wove the dance and raised the strain.
3. Go ye forth, His saints, to meet Him!
Go with lamps in every hand!
From the sepulcher He riseth:
Ready for the Bridegroom stand:
And the Pascha of salvation
Hail, with His triumphant band,
Hail, with His triumphant band. Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA Text Sources: Hymns of the Eastern Church
