Author: Joseph Simpson Cook, 1859-1933 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 48 hymnals Scripture: 1 John 3:5 Lyrics: 1 Gentle Mary laid her child

To the world a stranger.

Ask the saved of all the race
Who have found His favor.

Wise Men sought and found Him;
Heaven's star shone brightly forth
Glory all around Him.
Shepherds saw the wondrous sight,
Heard the angels singing;
All the plains were lit that night,
All the hills were ringing.

Lowly in a manger;
He is still the Undefiled
But no more a stranger.
Son of God of humble birth,
Beautiful the story;
Praise His name in all the earth;
Hail the King of glory! Used With Tune: TEMPUS ADEST FLORIDUM

God, who stretched the spangled heavens
Author: Catherine Cameron, 1927- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 46 hymnals Scripture: 1 John 3:1-3 Lyrics: 1 God, who stretched the spangled heavens
infinite in time and place,
flung the suns in burning radiance
through the silent fields of space,
we your children, in your likeness,
share inventive powers with you:
great Creator, still creating,
show us what we yet may do.
2 Proudly rise our modern cities,
stately buildings, row on row;
yet their windows, blank, unfeeling,
stare on canyoned streets below,
where the lonely drift unnoticed
in the city’s ebb and flow,
lost to purpose and to meaning,
scarcely caring where they go.
3 We have ventured worlds undreamed of
since the childhood of our race;
known the ecstasy of winging
through untraveled realms of space;
probed the secrets of the atom,
yielding unimagined power,
facing us with life’s destruction
or our most triumphant hour.
4 As each far horizon beckons,
may it challenge us anew,
children of creative purpose,
serving others, honouring you.
May our dreams prove rich with promise,
each endeavor, well begun:
great Creator, give us guidance
till our goals and yours are one. Topics: Art and Learning; City; Courage; Discipleship; Environment; Fulfilment; Gifts in Creation; Guidance; Providence; Science Used With Tune: LE THRORNET
