O Word of God Incarnate
Author: William W. How Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #598 (1989) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Jesus Christ Incarnation Lyrics: 1. O Word of God incarnate,
O Wisdom from on high,
O Truth unchanged, unchanging,
O Light of our dark sky:
we praise you for the radiance
that from the hallowed page,
a lantern to our footsteps,
shines on from age to age.
2. The church from you, our Savior,
received the gift divine,
and still that light is lifted
o'er all the earth to shine.
It is the sacred vessel
where gems of truth are stored;
it is the heaven-drawn picture
of Christ, the living Word.
3. The Scripture is a banner
before God's host unfurled;
it is a shining beacon
above the darkling world.
It is the chart and compass
that o'er life's surging tide,
mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
to you, O Christ, will guide.
4. O make your church, dear Savior,
a lamp of purest gold,
to bear before the nations
your true light as of old.
O teach your wandering pilgrims
by this their path to trace,
till, clouds and darkness ended,
they see you face to face.

source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
hallows all our human race,
Christ our Head, who throned in glory
for your own will ever plead,
fill us with your love and pity,
heal our wrongs, and help our need.
2 As you, Lord, have lived for others
so may we for others live;
freely have your gifts been granted,
freely may your servants give:
yours the gold and yours the silver,
yours the wealth of sea and land,
we but stewards of your bounty
held in trust as from your hand.
3 Come, O Christ, and reign among us
King of love and Prince of peace;
hush the storm of strife and passion,
bid its cruel discords cease;
by your patient years of toiling,
by your silent hours of pain,
quench our fevered thirst of pleasure,
shame our selfish greed of gain.
4 Son of God, eternal Saviour,
source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
hallows all our human race,
in your love you prayed the Father
that your people should be one:
grant, O Christ, our hope's fruition,
here on earth your will be done. Scripture: 1 Peter 4:7-11 Languages: English Tune Title: POND STREET

yet mindful of the fears,
the hopes, the questions raised for us
by ever changing years:
so guide us through our pilgrim days
that we may find a home
where justice, truth, and mercy meet,
fulfilled in your shalom.
2 Incarnate God revealed in time,
true Word in flesh retold,
who marked the years from birth to death,
then rose to break death's hold:
by your becoming one with us,
help us to know and claim
the unity of all baptized
in your redeeming name.
3 Life breathing God enliv'ning time,
awaking heart and tongue,
inspiring prophets, bringing hope,
consoling old and young:
draw us to those denied your gifts
by bias, want, or strife,
convert our wills and form through us
new channels of your life.
4 Great Triune God, so bless the time
entrusted to our care,
that all our varied ministries
may form a common prayer;
then when time ceases,
bring us where divisions are undone,
that in your presence, joined in praise,
at last we may be one. Scripture: Psalm 119:33-40 Languages: English Tune Title: RESIGNATION

O How Shall I Receive Thee?
Author: Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #4 (1926) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Christ Incarnation; Incarnation of Christ First Line: O how shall I receive Thee Lyrics: 1 O how shall I receive Thee,
How greet Thee, Lord, aright?
All nations long to see Thee,
My Hope, my heart's Delight!
O kindle, Lord most holy,
Thy lamp within my breast,
To do in spirit lowly
All that may please Thee best.
2 Thy Zion palms is strewing,
And branches fresh and fair;
My heart, its powers renewing,
An anthem shall prepare.
My soul puts off her sadness
Thy glories to proclaim;
With all her strength and gladness
She fain would serve Thy Name.
3 I lay in fetters groaning,
Thou com'st to set me free;
I stood, my shame bemoaning,
Thou com'st to honor me.
A glory Thou dost give me,
A treasure safe on high,
That will not fail nor leave me
As earthly riches fly.
4 Love caused Thine incarnation,
Love brought Thee down to me;
Thy thirst for my salvation
Procured my liberty.
O love beyond all telling,
That led Thee to embrace,
In love all love excelling,
Our lost and fallen race!
5 Rejoice then, ye sad-hearted,
Who sit in deepest gloom,
Who mourn o'er joys departed,
And tremble at your doom;
He who alone can cheer you,
Is standing at the door;
He brings His pity near you,
And bids you weep no more.
Amen. Scripture: Haggai 2:7 Languages: English Tune Title: O, DU MITT HJÄRTAS TRÄNGTAN

Tomorrow Christ is coming
Author: Fred Kaan Hymnal: Voices United #27 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Jesus Christ Incarnation Lyrics: 1 Tomorrow Christ is coming
as yesterday he came;
a child is born this moment,
we do not know its name.
The world is full of darkness,
again there is no room;
the symbols of existence
are stable, cross and tomb.
2 Tomorrow will be Christmas,
the feast of love divine,
but for the nameless millions
the star will never shine.
Still is the census taken
with people on the move;
new infants born in stables
are crying out for love.
3 There will be no tomorrows
for many a baby born;
Good Friday falls on Christmas
when life is sown as corn.
But Jesus Christ is risen
and comes again in bread
to still our deepest hunger
and raise us from the dead.
4 Our God becomes incarnate
in every human birth.
Created in God's image,
we must make peace on earth.
God will fulfil Love's purpose
and this shall be the sign:
e shall find Christ among us
as woman, child, or man. Tune Title: LITTLE BADDOW
