A man there lived in Galilee
Author: Somerset Corry Lowry, 1855-1932 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 9 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1 A man there lived in Galilee
like none who lived before,
for he alone from first to last
our flesh unblemished wore;
a perfect life of perfect deeds
once to the world was shown,
that people all might mark his steps
and in them plant their own.
2 A man there died on Calvary
above all others brave;
the human race he saved and blessed,
himself he scorned to save.
No thought can gauge the weight of woe
on him, the sinless, laid;
we only know that with his blood
our ransom price was paid.
3 A man there reigns in glory now,
divine, yet human still;
that human which is all divine
death sought in vain to kill.
All pow'r is his; supreme he rules
the realms of time and space;
yet still our human cares and needs
find in his heart a place. Topics: Year A Christmas 1; Year A Easter 4; Year A Palm Sunday: Liturgy of the Passion; Year A Trinity Sunday; Years A, B, and C Presentation of Christ in the Temple Scripture: 1 Peter 2:21-22 Used With Tune: TYROL

The Wise May Bring THeir Learning
Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 117 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 First Line: The wise may bring their learning, The rich may bring their wealth Lyrics: 1 wise may bring their learning,
The rich may bring their wealth,
And some may bring their greatness,
And some their strength and health:
We too would bring our treasures
To offer to the King,
We have no wealth or learning—
What shall we children bring?
2 We’ll bring Him hearts that love Him,
We’ll bring Him thankful praise,
And young souls meekly striving
To follow in His ways:
And these be the treasures
We offer to the King,
And these are gifts that ever
The poorest child may bring.
3 We’ll bring the little duties
We have to do each day;
We’ll try our best to please Him
At home, at school, at play:
And better are these treasures
To offer to the King
Than richest gift without them:
Yet these a child may bring. Topics: Christan Life Stewardship Used With Tune: TYROLESE Text Sources: Book of Praise for Children, 1881

Come, Shepherds, Come!
Author: Anonymous; Anonymous Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 First Line: Come, shepherds, come! shake off your sleep Lyrics: 1. Come, shepherds, come! shake off your sleep,
And ope your weary eyes;
’Tis time to leave your folded sheep,
Come, shepherds, come, arise!
Hark! angels clad in bright array,
Burst forth in heav’nly song;
See! night grows brighter than the day,
Lit by their glistening throng.
2. Around the hut wherein I slept
A gleam of light was seen.
And golden strings of harps were swept
By angels clad in sheen.
What sounds of joy the air then stirred!
What hymns of holy rest!
In terra pax above I heard
And Christus natus est.
3. We, too, this welcome news did hear
From angels in the air,
They bade us cast away all fear,
And to the town repair.
We hastened to the humble stall,
The Holy Child we sought;
On bended knee each one did fall,
And humble offerings brought.
4. Then know, all friends, who wish to see
Your sweet Redeemer’s face,
Though long, the way full short will be,
If ye but ask His grace.
No thorns your faithful steps shall stay
And light will shine around;
All doubts and fears will pass away
When Jesus Christ is found. Used With Tune: TYROL Text Sources: Carols Old and Carols New, by Charles L. Hutchins (Boston, Massachusetts: Parish Choir, 1916), number 644.

As Saints of Old
Author: Frank von Christierson (1900-1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 30 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: As saints of old their first fruits broght Lyrics: 1 As saints of old their first fruits brought
of orchard, flock, and field
to God, the giver of all good,
the source of bounteous yield;
so we today first fruits would bring:
the wealth of this good land,
of farm and market, shop and home,
of mind, and heart, and hand.
2 A world in need now summons us
to labour, love, and give;
to make our life an offering
that others too may live.
The church of Christ is calling us
to make the dream come true:
a world redeemed, your kingdom come,
all life in Christ made new.
3 In gratitude and humble trust
we bring our best today,
to serve your cause and share your love
with all humanity.
O God, who gave yourself to us
in Jesus Christ your Son,
help us to give ourselves each day
until life's work is done. Topics: Discipleship; Justice; Harvest Thanksgiving Scripture: Exodus 23:16-19 Used With Tune: TYROL

Affirm anew the threefold name
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Affirm anew the threefold name
of Father, Spirit, Son,
our God whose saving acts proclaim
a world's salvation won.
In him alone we live and move
and breath and being find,
the wayward children of his love
who cares for humankind.
2 Declare in all the earth his grace,
to every heart his call,
the living Lord of time and place
whose love embraces all.
So shall his endless praise be sung,
his teaching truly heard,
and every culture, every tongue,
receive his timeless word.
3 Confirm our faith in this our day
amid earth's shifting sand,
with Christ as life and truth and way,
a rock on which to stand;
the one eternal Son and Lord
by God the Father given,
the true and life-imparting Word,
the Way that leads to heaven.
4 Renew once more the ancient fire,
let love our hearts inflame;
renew, restore, unite, inspire
the church that bears your name;
one name exalted over all,
one Father, Spirit, Son,
O grant us grace to heed your call
and in that name be one. Topics: Trinity Sunday Scripture: Acts 17:25-28 Used With Tune: TYROL
