O happy band of pilgrims

Author: St. Joseph the Hymnographer; John Mason Neale Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 186 hymnals Lyrics: O happy band of pilgrims, If onward ye will tread With Jesus as your fellow To Jesus as your head! O happy if ye labour As Jesus did for men! O happy if ye hunger As Jesus hungered then! The cross that Jesus carried, He carried as your due: The crown that Jesus weareth, He weareth it for you. The faith by which ye see him, The hope in which ye yearn, The love that through all troubles To him alone will turn; The trials that beset you, The sorrows ye endure, The manifold temptations That death alone can cure; What are they but his jewels, Of right celestial worth? What are they but the ladder Set up to heaven on earth? O happy band of pilgrims, Look upward to the skies, Where such a light affliction Shall win so great a prize! 497 To Father, Son, and Spirit, The God whom we adore, Be loftiest praises given, Now and for evermore. Amen. Topics: Sundays after Trinity Divine Guidance; Travelers by Sea and Land; Processional; Sunday Schools Closing Hymns; Sunday Schools Processionals Used With Tune: KNECHT

A Great and Mighty Wonder

Author: Anatolius Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 125 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A great and might wonder Our Christmas festal brings; On earth, a lowly Infant, Behold the King of kings! 2 The Word is made incarnate, Descending from on high; And Cherubim sing anthems To shepherds, from the sky. 3 And we, with them triumphant, Repeat the hymn again: "To God on high be glory, And peace on earth, to men!" 4 Since all He comes to ransom, By all be He adored, The Infant born in Bethlehem, The Saviour and the Lord! 5 All idol forms shall perish, And error shall decay, And Christ shall wield His scepter, Our Lord and God for aye. Amen. Topics: Church Year Advent; Christmas Day Used With Tune: KOCHER
