How blest the virgin who endued
O Christ, our hope, our hearts' desire
Author: John Chandler, 1808-76 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #129 (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Office Hymn Compline Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our hope, our hearts' desire,
Redemption's only spring;
Creator of the world art thou,
Its Saviour and its King.
2 How vast the mercy and the love
Which laid our sins on thee,
And led thee to a cruel death
To set thy people free.
3 But now the bonds of death are burst,
The ransom has been paid;
And thou art on thy Father's throne
In glorious robes arrayed.
4 O may thy mighty love prevail
Our sinful souls to spare;
O may we come before thy throne,
And find acceptance there!
5 O Christ, be thou our present joy,
Our future great reward;
Our only glory may it be
To glory in the Lord.
6 All praise to thee, ascended Lord;
All glory ever be
To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Through all eternity. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: METZLER'S REDHEAD NO 66
O Christ, our hope, our hearts' desire
Creator of the earth and sky
Author: St. Ambrose, 340-97; Charles Bigg, 1840-1908 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #152 (1986) Topics: Office Hymn Weekday evenings Lyrics: 1 Creator of the earth and sky,
Ruling the firmament on high,
Clothing the day with robes of light,
Blessing with gracious sleep the night,
2 That rest may comfort weary men,
And brace to useful toil again,
And soothe awhile the harassed mind,
And sorrow’s heavy load unbind:
3 Day sinks; we thank thee for thy gift;
Night comes; and once again we lift
Our prayer and vows and hymns that we
Against all ills may shielded be.
4 That when black darkness closes day,
And shadows thicken round our way,
Faith may no darkness know, and night
From faith’s clear beam may borrow light.
5 Pray we the Father and the Son,
And Holy Spirit, Three in One;
Blest Trinity, whom all obey,
Guard thou thy sheep by night and day.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: DEUS CREATOR
Creator of the earth and sky
Ave, maris Stella
Author: Athelstan Riley, 1858-1945 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #180b (1986) Topics: Office Hymn First Line: Hail, O Star that pointest Lyrics: 1 Hail, O Star that pointest
Towards the port of heaven,
Thou to whom as maiden
God for Son was given.
2 When the salutation
Gabriel had spoken,
Peace was shed upon us,
Eva’s bonds were broken.
3 Bound by Satan’s fetters,
Health and vision needing,
God will aid and light us
At thy gentle pleading.
4 Jesu’s tender Mother,
Make thy supplication
Unto him who chose thee
At his Incarnation;
5 That, O matchless Maiden,
Passing meek and lowly,
Thy dear Son may make us
Blameless, chaste and holy.
6 So, as now we journey,
Aid our weak endeavour.
Till we gaze on Jesus,
And rejoice for ever.
7 Father, Son and Spirit,
Three in One confessing,
Give we equal glory,
Equal praise and blessing. Amen. Tune Title: AVE MARIS STELLA

The Apostles’ glorious deeds, we sing;
And while due hymns of praise we pay,
Our thankful hearts cast grief away.

These victor chiefs of warrior hosts;
The soldiers of the heavenly hall,
The lights that rose on earth for all.
3 ’Twas thus the yearning faith of saints,
The unconquered hope that never faints,
The love of Christ that knows not shame,
The prince of this world overcame.
4 In these the Father’s glory shone;
In these the will of God the Son;
In these exults the Holy Ghost;
Through these rejoice the heavenly host.
5 Redeemer, hear us of thy love,
That, with this glorious band above,
Hereafter, of thine endless grace,
Thy servants also may have place. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: AETERNA CHRISTI MUNERA
