Once He Came in Blessing
Author: Jan Roh; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Appears in 32 hymnals Topics: Christian year--Advent; Christian year--Advent Lyrics: 1 Once he came in blessing
all our sins redressing,
came in likeness lowly,
Son of God most holy;
bore the cross to save us,
hope and freedom gave us.
2 Still he comes within us,
still his voice would win us
from the sins that hurt us;
would to truth convert us
from our foolish error,
ere he comes in terror.
3 Thus if we have known him,
not ashamed to own him,
nor have spurned him coldly,
but will trust him boldly,
he will then receive us,
heal us, and forgive us.
4 Those who then are loyal
find a welcome royal.
Come then, O Lord Jesus,
from our sins release us;
let us here confess you
till in heav'n we bless you. Scripture: Matthew 1:23 Used With Tune: ADVENT

God the Lord, the king almighty
Author: Christopher Martin Idle (b. 1938) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Advent Lyrics: 1 God the Lord, the King almighty,
calls the earth from east to west:
shining out from Zion's splendour,
city loveliest and best,
comes our God! He breaks the silence,
robed in burning majesty:
'Gather all my covenant people,
bound by sacrifice to me'.
2 'Hear me testify against you:
listen, Israel, as I speak:
I do not require your offerings,
sacrifice I do not seek.
Mountain birds and meadow creatures,
Cattle on a thousand hills,
all the beasts are my possession,
moving as their maker wills.'
3 God who owns the whole creation
needs no gift, no food, no house:
bring to him your hearts' thanksgiving:
God most high will hear your vows.
Trust him in the day of trouble,
call to him who will redeem:
God will be your strong deliverer,
his renown your daily theme.
4 Lies increase and evil prospers;
God is silent, while men say,
'He has gone; let us forget him!'
thinking he is false as they.
But his word will judge or save us;
let us come before his throne
giving thanks, receiving mercy:
God's salvation now made known. Scripture: Psalm 50 Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL
God the Lord, the king almighty

all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
2 Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful,
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
3 Are we weak and heavy laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Christ the Saviour is our refuge;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do our friends despise, forsake us?
Are we tempted to despair?
Jesus' strength will shield our weakness,
and we'll find new courage there. Used With Tune: FRIENDSHIP
