Come, ye lofty, come, ye lowly
Now We Bring Our Christmas Treasures
Author: Maria H. Bulfinch Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now we bring our Christmas treasures,
Loving thoughts and deeds we bring;
Childlike hearts we gladly offer
To the Child, the children’s king.
To the Child, who in the manger,
Lay upon that Christmas morn,
When the angels came to tell us
That the children’s king was born.
2 And He lives throughout the ages,
Lives and reigns in earth and sky;
Angel hosts still sing the glory
Of the children’s king on high.
Yet He cares for children’s praises:
So, with heart and voice we ring;
Glory in the highest, glory,
To the Child, the children’s king. Used With Tune: CHESHAM Text Sources: Infant Songs by William A. Ogden (Bellefontaine, OH: W. A. Ogden, 1861)
Now We Bring Our Christmas Treasures
Father, though Thy Name be holy
Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father, though Thy Name be holy,
High and lifted up Thy throne,
Still, Thou stoopest to the lowly,
And wilt such with favour own.
Heav'nly Father, Heav'nly Father,
Let us worship Thee alone.
2 Heaven itself cannot contain Thee,
Bright and glorious as Thou art;
Yet a little child may claim Thee
As a dweller in his heart.
Heavenly Father,
Let me not from Thee depart.
3 With Thy gracious presence cheer me,
Keep me in Thy perfect love;
All my journey be thou near me,
Bring me to Thy home above,
Heavenly Father,
May I all Thy fulness prove!
Amen. Used With Tune: CECIL
