Not worthy, Lord, to gather up the crumbs

Author: Edward Henry Bickersteth Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 89 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Not worthy, Lord, to gather up the crumbs With trembling hand, that from Thy table fall, A weary, heavy-laden sinner comes To plead Thy promise and obey Thy call. 2 I am not worthy to be thought Thy child, Nor sit the last and lowest at Thy board; Too long a wanderer, and too oft beguiled, I only ask one reconciling word. 3 I hear Thy voice; Thou bid'st me come and rest; I come, I kneel, I clasp Thy piercèd feet; Thou bid'st me take my place, a welcome guest Among Thy saints, and of Thy banquet eat. 4 My praise can only breathe itself in prayer, My prayer can only lose itself in Thee; Dwell Thou for ever in my heart, and there, Lord, let me sup with Thee; sup Thou with me. Amen. Topics: The Holy Communion Used With Tune: REGNATOR ORBIS

Gladly we kneel in obedience before you; great is the one whom we worship this day! 4 Now let us listen, for you speak among us; open our hearts to receive what you say.

Brightest and Best

Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 912 hymnals First Line: Brightest and best of the stars of the morning Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, dawn on our darkness and lend us your aid. Star of the east, the horizon adorning, guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. 2 Cold on his cradle the dewdrops are shining; low lies his head with the beasts of the stall. Angels adore him in slumber reclining, maker and monarch and Savior of all. 3 Shall we yield him in costly devotion rarest of fragrances, tribute divine, gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean, myrrh from the forest and gold from the mine? 4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation, vainly with gifts would his favor secure. Richer by far is the heart's adoration, dearer to God are the prayers of the poor. 5 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning, dawn on our darkness and lend us your aid. Star of the east, the horizon adorning, guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. Topics: Epiphany Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Used With Tune: O QUANTA QUALIA

Guards, at the sepulchre, scatter before him; Jesus is risen and angels adore him. 5 Highest, Most Holy, once lost and forsaken: now, from the sleep of the dead you awaken; angels appear at the tomb with the story: "He is not here, but is risen in glory." 6 Give God the glory and glad adoration, from whom and through whom and in whom, creation looks for the joy which, in Christ, we inherit: praising the Father, the Son and the Spirit!

Praising my Father for all He has given, Onward I march to my mansion in heaven. 3 Friend of the friendless, I come to be blest, Joy of the joyless, in Thee I find rest; Jesus who died upon Calvary’s Cross, Mine is the blessing, but Thine was the loss. 4 Trusting Thee fully, Lord, lest I should fail, Counting on Thee for the power to prevail; Learning of Thee every step of the way, Singing of Thee as I journey each day.
