As Royal Banners Are Unfurled
Author: Venantius Fortunatus (540?-600?); Alan Gaunt (1935-) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #187 (1998) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 As royal banners are unfurled,
the cross displays its mystery:
the Maker of our flesh, in flesh,
impaled and hanging helplessly.
2 Already deeply wounded: see
his side now riven by a spear,
and all our sins are swept away
by blood and water flowing here.
3 See everything the prophets wrote
fulfilled in its totality,
and tell the nations of the world
our God is reigning from the tree.
4 This tree, ablaze with royal light
and with the blood-red robe it wears,
is hallowed and embellished by
the weight of holiness it bears.
5 Stretched like a balance here, his arms
have gauged the price of wickedness;
but, hanging here, his love outweighs
hell's unforgiving bitterness.
6 The Saviour, victim, sacrifice
is, through his dying glorified;
his life is overcome by death
and leaps up, sweeping death aside.
7 We hail the cross, faith's one true hope:
God's passion set in time and space,
by which our guilt is blotted out,
engulfed in such stupendous grace. Amen. Topics: Holy Week (Good Friday) Scripture: John 18:33-37 Languages: English Tune Title: GONFALON ROYAL

Author: Venantius Fortunatus; Anonymous; J. M. Neale Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #286 (1985) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The royal banners forward go,
the cross shines forth in mystic glow;
upon it life did death endure,
and yet by death did life procure.
2 That which the prophet King of old
hath in myterious verse foretold
is now accomplished while we see
that God is reigning from a tree!
3 Blest tree, most sacred and divine,
which dost in royal purple shine,
supporting an incarnate God,
and rendered holy by thy load!
4 Blest tree, whose happy branches bore
the wealth that did the world restore,
the balance which the price which weigh
that spoiled the spoiler of his prey!
5 Blest Trinity, life's source and spring,
may ev'ry soul thy praises sing!
Let those obtain a crown in heav'n
to whom the cross has conquest giv'n!
Amen!
That which the prophet King of old
hath in mysterious verse forefold
is now accomplished while we see
that God is reigning from a tree.

the cross shines forth in mystic glow;
where he in flesh, or flesh who made,
our sentence bore, our ransom paid.
2 There whilst he hung, his sacred side
by soldier's spear was opened wide,
to cleanse us in the precious flood
of water mingled with his blood.

in true prophetic song of old,
how God the sinner's king should be;
for God is reigning on the tree.
4 O tree of glory, tree most fair,
ordained those holy limbs to bear,
how bright in purple robe it stood,
the purple of a Savior's blood!
5 Upon his arms, like balance true,
he weighed the price for sinners due,
the price which none but he could pay:
and spoiled the spoiler of his prey.
6 To thee, eternal Three in One,
let homage meet by all be done,
as by the cross thou dost restore,
so rule and guide us evermore. Amen. Topics: Passiontide; Years A, B, and C Good Friday Scripture: John 19:34 Languages: English Tune Title: GONFALON ROYAL

New every morning is the love
Author: John Keble, 1792-1866 Hymnal: Common Praise #6b (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love

through sleep and darkness safely brought,
restored to life and power and thought.
2 New mercies, each returning day,
hover around us while we pray;
new perils past, new sins forgiven,
new thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.
3 If on our daily course our mind
be set to hallow all we find,
new treasures still, of countless price,
God will provide for sacrifice.
4 The trivial round, the common task,
will furnish all we ought to ask,
room to deny ourselves, a road
to bring us daily nearer God.
5 Only, O Lord, in thy dear love,
fit us for perfect rest above;
and help us, this and every day,
to live more nearly as we pray. Topics: Morning; Lent II Year B; Lent III Year A Scripture: Hebrews 4:9 Languages: English Tune Title: GONFALON ROYAL

Whose blood hath brought redemption nigh,

How changed is our humanity;
That flesh hath purged what flesh had stained,
And God, the flesh of God, hath reigned.

Who art our future recompense:
So shall the light that springs from thee
Be ours through all eternity.

With Father and with Spirit One.

A scattered homeless flock, till all
Are gathered in your peaceful fold.

Till faith is born and doubts depart,
To awe the bold, to stay the weak,
And bind and heal the broken heart.

That makes us sadden as we gaze,
Shall bloom with living waters green
And lift to heav'n the voice of praise.

O Spirit of the living God
Lord Christ, who on thy heart
Author: Arnold Thomas, 1848-1924 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #407 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Lord Christ, who on thy heart didst bear Lyrics: 1 Lord Christ, who on thy heart didst bear
the burden of our shame and sin,
and now on high dost stoop to share
the fight without, the fear within:
2 Thy patience cannot know defeat,
thy pity will not be denied,
thy loving-kindness still is great,
thy tender mercies still abide.
3 O brother Man, for this we pray,
thou brother Man and sovereign Lord,
that we thy brethren, day by day
may follow thee and keep thy word.
4 That we may care, as thou hast cared,
for sick and lame, for deaf and blind,
and freely share, as thou hast shared,
in all the woes of humankind.
5 That ours may be the holy task
to help and bless, to heal and save;
this is the happiness we ask,
and this the service that we crave.

Jesus, the joy of loving hearts
Author: R. Palmer (1808-1887) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #413b (1987) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the joy of loving hearts,
true source of life, our lives sustain:
from the best bliss that earth imparts
we turn unfilled to you again.
2 Your truth unchanged has ever stood,
you rescue those who on you call:
to those yet seeking, you are good —
to those who find you, all-in-all.
3 We taste of you, the living bread,
and long to feast upon you still;
we drink from you, the fountain-head,
our thirsty souls from you we fill.
4 Our restless spirits long for you,
whichever way our lot is cast,
glad when your gracious smile we view,
blessed when our faith can hold you fast.
5 Jesus, for ever with us stay,
make all our moments calm and bright;
chase the dark night of sin away,
spread through the world your holy light.

O Spirit of the living God
Author: J. Montgomery (1771-1854) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #513 (1987) Lyrics: 1 O Spirit of the living God,
in all the fullness of your grace,
wherever human foot have trod,
descend upon our fallen race.
2 Give tongues of fire and hearts of love
to preach the reconciling word;
anoint with power from heaven above
whenever gospel truth is heard.
3 Let darkness turn to radiant light,
confusion vanish from your path;
those who are weak inspire with might:
let mercy triumph over wrath!
4 O Spirit of the God, prepare
the whole wide world the Lord to meet;
breathe out new life, like morning air,
till hearts of stone begin to beat:
5 Baptize the nations; far and near
the triumphs of the cross record;
till Christ is glory shall appear
and every race declare him Lord! (Amen.)

Cheer those who love his sweet employ,
Sing to our God, for he is love,
Exalt his name, for it is joy.
