Faith is a living pow'r from heav'n
Author: Petrus Herbert; Catherine Winkworth Appears in 74 hymnals Topics: The Catechism Faith; Third Sunday after Epiphany; First Sunday after Easter; Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity; Nineteenth Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 Faith is a living pow'r from heav'n,
That grasps the promise God hath giv'n,
A confidence in Christ alone,
Whose grace cannot be overthrown.
2 Faith in the conscience worketh peace,
And bids the mourner’s weeping cease;
By faith the children’s place we claim
And give all honor to One Name.
3 Faith feels the Spirit’s kindling breath
In love and hope that conquer death;
Faith worketh joyfulness in God
And trusts and blesses e’en the rod.
4 We thank Thee, then, O God of heaven,
That Thou to us this faith hast given;
Preserve to us Thy Spirit's grace
Till we shall see Thee face to face. Used With Tune: UXBRIDGE Text Sources: Moravian

What Child Is This
Author: W. Chatterton Dix Meter: 8.7.8.7 with refrain Appears in 225 hymnals First Line: What child is this, who, laid to rest Refrain First Line: This, this is Christ the King Lyrics: 1 What Child is this, who, laid to rest,
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?
Chorus:
This, this is Christ, the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
2 Why lies He in such mean estate,
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.[Chorus]
3 So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh,
Come, peasant, king to own Him.
The King of kings salvation brings;
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.[Chorus]
Baptist Hymnal, (2008)
What Child Is This
When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay
Author: Thomas Gibbons Appears in 157 hymnals Topics: First Sunday after Epiphany Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay,
What were His works from day to day,
But miracles of pow'r and grace,
Which spread salvation thro' our race?
2 Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view
Thy pattern, and Thy steps pursue:
Let alms bestowed, let kindness done,
Be witnessed by each rolling sun.
3 That man may last, but never lives,
Who much receives, but nothing gives:
Whom none can love, whom none can thank,
Creation's blot, creation's blank.
4 But he who marks from day to day
In gen'rous acts his radiant way,
The same path treads the Savior trod,
The path to glory and to God. Used With Tune: SURREY
When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay
Shepherd of tender youth
Author: St. Clement of Alexandrea; Henry Martin Dexter Appears in 285 hymnals Topics: First Sunday after Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Shepherd of tender youth,
Guiding in love and truth,
Thro' all their ways;
Christ, our triumphant King,
We come Thy Name to sing,
And here our children bring
To join Thy praise.
2 Ever be near our side,
Our Shepherd and our Guide,
Our Staff and Song:
Jesus, Thou Christ of God,
By Thine enduring Word,
Lead us where Thou hast trod,
Make our faith strong.
3 So now, and till we die,
Sound we Thy praises high,
And joyful sing;
Let all the holy throng,
Who to Thy Church belong,
Unite and swell the song
To Christ our King! Used With Tune: ITALIAN HYMN
Shepherd of tender youth
O for a Faith that will not shrink
Author: William Hiley Bathurst Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 720 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Trust; Epiphany, Fourth Sunday; Twenty First Sunday after Trinity Lyrics: 1 O for a Faith that will not shrink,
Though prest by many a foe;
That will not tremble on the brink
Of poverty or woe;
2 That will not murmur nor complain
Beneath the chastening rod:
But in the hour of grief or pain
Can lean upon its God.
3 A Faith that shines more bright and clear
When tempests rage without;
That when in danger knows no fear,
In darkness feels no doubt:
4 That bears unmoved the world's dread frown,
Nor heeds its scornful smile;
That sin's wild ocean cannot drown,
Nor Satan's arts beguile:
5 A Faith that keeps the narrow way
Till life's last hour is fled,
And with a pure and heavenly ray
Lights up a dying bed.
6 Lord, give us such a Faith as this,
And then whate'er may come,
We'll taste e'en here the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home. Used With Tune: ABRIDGE

Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 864 hymnals Topics: liturgical Scripture Songs Lyrics: 1. Hail to the Lord's Anointed,
great David's greater Son!
Hail in the time appointed,
his reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
to set the captive free;
to take away transgression,
and rule in equity.
2. He comes with succor speedy
to those who suffer wrong;
to help the poor and needy,
and bid the weak be strong;
to give them songs for sighing,
their darkness turn to light,
whose souls, condemned and dying,
are precious in his sight.
3. He shall come down like showers
upon the fruitful earth;
love, joy, and hope, like flowers,
spring in his path to birth.
Before him on the mountains,
shall peace, the herald, go,
and righteousness, in fountains,
from hill to valley flow.
4. To him shall prayer unceasing
and daily vows ascend;
his kingdom still increasing,
a kingdom without end.
The tide of time shall never
his covenant remove;
his name shall stand forever;
that name to us is love.
The United Methodist Hymnal
Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Kommer, hid kun med de Smaa
Author: Grundtvig Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: First Sunday after Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Kommer hid kun med de Smaa,
Som ei godt og ondt forstaa,
I hvis Mund ei findes Svig,
Just til dem er Himmerig;
Deres Sjæl er i Guds Haand,
De bedrøve ei hans Aand,
Laste ei hans Ledebaand.
2 Født af Kjødet er dog Kjød,
Frugt af Synd og Sæd til Død,
Fødsel kun af Vand og Aand
Løser Synd og Dødens Baand;
Kum i den oplukker sig
Døren til Guds Himmerig.
Ordet staar evindelig.
3 Bærer da de Smaa til ham,
Som borttog vor Synd og Skam,
Som velsigner med Guds Haand,
Døber med den Helligaand,
Har fra Døden dyrekjøbt,
Har i sine Klæder svøbt
Hver, som tror og bliver døbt.
4 Jesus kalder ad de Smaa,
Hvo tør dem i Veien staa?
Sønnen i sin Faders Navn
Aabner dem sin kjære Favn,
Lukker til sit Himmerig
For den, som ophøier sig,
Vil ei være Barnet lig.
5 Fader, Søn og Helligaand,
Eet for os i Troens Baand,
Gak du med de Smaa i Pagt
Imod Synds og Dødens Magt!
Gjem dem i din Enddoms Favn,
Før dem frelst til Fredens Havn,
Saliggjør dem i dit Navn!
Kommer, hid kun med de Smaa
Herre Jesus Krist!
Author: Hans C. Sthen Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: First Sunday after Epiphany Lyrics: 1 Herre Jesus Krist!
Min Frelser du est,
Til dig haaber jeg alene;
Jeg tror paa dig,
Forlad ikke mig
Saa elendelig,
Mig trøster dit Ord det rene.
2 Alt efter den Vilje,
O Herre, mig stille,
At jeg dig trolig kan dyrke;
Du est min Gud,
Lær mig dine Bud,
Al min Tid ud
Du mig i Troen styrke!
3 Nu vil jeg være,
O Jesus kjære,
Hvor du mig helft vil have,
Jeg lukker dig ind
I mit Hjerte og Sind,
O Herre min,
Med al din Naad og Gave!
4 Saa inderlig
Forlader jeg mig
Alt paa din Gunst og Naade,
O Jesus sød,
Hjælp mig af Nød
For din haarde Død,
Frels mig af alskens Vaade!
5 Al min Tillid
Nu og al Tid
Har jeg til dig, o Herre!
Du est min Trøst,
Dit Ord og Røst
I al min Brøst
Min Hjertens Glæde mon være.
6 Naar Sorgen mig trænger,
Efter dig mig forlænger,
Du kan mig bedst husvale;
Den, du vil bevare,
Han er uden Fare,
Du mig forsvare,
Dig monne jeg mig befale!
7 Nu veed jeg vist,
Herre Jesus Krist,
Du vil mig aldrig forlade;
Du siger jo saa:
Kald du mig paa,
Hjælp skal du faa
I al din Sorg og Vaade.
8 O give det Gud,
Vi efter dine Bud
Kunde os saa skikke tilsammen,
At vi med dig
Evindelig
I Himmerig
Kunde leve i Salighed! Amen.
Herre Jesus Krist!
O who like Thee, so calm, so bright
Author: A. C. Coxe Appears in 30 hymnals Topics: The Church Year First Sunday after Epiphany; The Church Year First Sunday after Epiphany Lyrics: 1 O who like Thee, so calm, so bright,
Lord Jesus Christ, Thou Light of light,
O who like Thee did ever go
So patient through a world of woe;
So meek, so lowly, yet so high,
So glorious in humility?
2 O wondrous Lord, our souls would be
Still more and more conformed to Thee;
Would lose the pride, the taint of sin,
That burns these fevered veins within;
And learn of Thee, the lowly one,
And like Thee all our journey run.
3 O grant us ever on the road
To trace the footsteps of our God;
That when Thou shalt appear, arrayed
In light to judge the quick and dead,
We may to life immortal soar,
Through Thee, who livest evermore. Used With Tune: [O who like Thee, so calm, so bright]
O who like Thee, so calm, so bright
