Awake, and sing the song
Sow in the morn thy seed
Author: James Montgomery Appears in 403 hymnals Used With Tune: FAREHAM
Sow in the morn thy seed
Lift up the Advent strain!
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 13 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lift up the Advent strain!
Behold the Lord is nigh!
Greet His approach, ye saints, again,
With hymns of holy joy.
2 The everlasting Son,
Incarnate deigns to be;
Our God the form of slave puts on,
A race of slaves to free.
3 Daughter of Sion, rise
To meet Thy lowly King.
Nor let the faithless heart despise
The peace He comes to bring.
4 As Judge in clouds of light
He shall come down again,
And all His scattered saints unite
With Him in Heaven to reign.
5 Before that dreadful day
May all our sins be gone,
The old man all be put away,
The new man all put on.
6 Jesus, all praise to Thee,
Our joy and endless rest;
We pray Thee here our Guide to be
Our crown amid the blest.
Amen. Topics: Our Lord Jesus Christ His Advent; Festivals Used With Tune: GOSS

Not by Thy mighty hand
Author: Bp. J. R. Woodford Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 24 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Not by Thy mighty hand,
Thy wondrous works alone,
But by the marvels of Thy Word,
Thy glory, Lord, is known.
2 Forth from the eternal gates,
Thine everlasting home,
To sow the seed of truth below,
Thou didst vouchsafe to come.
3 And still from age to age,
Thou, gracious Lord hast been
The bearer forth of goodly seed,
The sower still unseen.
4 And Thou wilt come again,
And heaven beneath Thee bow,
To reap the harvest Thou hast sown,
Sower and reaper Thou.
5 Watch, Lord, Thou harvest-field,
With Thine unsleeping eye,
The children of the kingdom keep
To Thy Epihany;
6 That, when in Thy great day,
The tares shall severed be,
We may be surely gathered in
With all Thy saints to Thee.
Amen.

When, Overwhelmed with Grief
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 242 hymnals Lyrics: 1. When, overwhelmed with grief,
My heart within me dies,
Helpless, and far from all relief,
To Heav’n I lift mine eyes.
2. O lead me to the rock
That’s high above my head
And make the covert of Thy wings
My shelter and my shade.
3. Within Thy presence, Lord,
For ever I’ll abide;
Thou art the tower of my defense,
The refuge where I hide.
4. Thou givest me the lot
Of those that fear Thy name;
If endless life be their reward,
I shall possess the same. Used With Tune: ADVENT (Goss) Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719

The cross is on our brow

To seal the work divine.

O Comforter most sweet:
Inflame with zeal each lukewarm heart,
And guide the trembling feet.

Thy presence let us feel:
With strength, Who art Thyself its source,
Inspire us as we kneel.
4 Confirm in us to-day
The work that Thou hast wrought:
Illume the souls with love's pure ray
Which Jesus' blood hath bought.
5 No earth-forged arms we bear:
Strength, weapons, all are Thine:
Accept each vow and hear each prayer,
Blest Trinity divine.
Amen. Used With Tune: [The cross is on our brow]

Our Eyes Salvation See
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Our eyes salvation see,
Prepared by grace divine;
How wide its splendors are diffused!
How bright its glories shine!
2 Through distant heathen lands
It darts a vivid ray,
And to the realms, where Satan reigned,
Imparts celestial day.
3 The Israel of the Lord
In Christ their glory boast,
And on the honors of His name
Their whole salvation trust.
4 By Him shall millions rise
To an immortal crown,
And millions, that His grace despise,
Shall sink in ruin down.
5 Our reckoning is begun,
And on th’account will go,
Till closed in everlasting joy,
Or never ending woe. Used With Tune: ADVENT Text Sources: Published posthumously in Hymns Founded on Various Texts in the Holy Scripture. By the Late Reverend Philip Doddridge, D. D., by Job Orton (J. Eddowes & J. Cotton: 1755)
