spring in his path to birth.
Before him on the mountains
shall peace the herald go,
and righteousness in fountains
from hill to valley flow.
4 Kings shall fall down before him,
and gold and incense bring;
all nations shall adore him,
his praise all people sing.
To him shall prayer unceasing
and daily vows ascend,
his kingdom still increasing,
a kingdom without end.
5 O'er every foe victorious,
he on his throne shall rest,
from age to age more glorious,
all-blessing and all-blest.
The tide of time shall never
his covenant remove.
His name shall stand for ever:
that name to us is Love. Topics: Adoration; Advent; Covenant; Epiphany (feast); Kingdom Languages: English Tune Title: CRÜGER

Nor the watchers, nor the seal
Hold him as a mortal;

Of triumphant gladness;
God has brought his Israel
Into joy from sadness;
Loosed from Pharoah's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters;
Led them with unmoistened foot
Through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls today;
Christ has burst his prison,
And from three days' sleep in death
As a sun has risen;
All the winter of our sins,
Long and dark is flying
From his light, to whom we give
Laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons, bright
With the day of splendor,
With the royal feast of feasts,
Comes its joy to render;
Comes to gladden faithful hearts
Who with true affection
Welcome in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4 Neither could the gates of death,
Nor the tomb's dark portal,
Nor the watchers, nor the seal
Hold him as a mortal;
For today amid the Twelve
Christ appeared bestowing
Lasting peace which evermore
Passes human knowing.
5 "Alleluia!" now we cry
To our King immortal,
Who, triumphant, burst the bars
Of the tomb's dark portal;
"Alleluia!" with the Son,
God the Father praising;
"Alleluia!" yet again
To the Spirit raising. Topics: Baptism; Celebration; Christian Initiation; Easter; Freedom; Gathering; Jesus Christ; Liberation; Paschal Mystery; Peace Languages: English Tune Title: GAUDEAMUS PARITER

O Where Are Kings and Empires Now
Author: Arthur Cleveland Coxe Hymnal: The Worshipbook #530 (1972) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Exodus 15:2 Lyrics: 1 O where are kings and empires now
Of old that went and came?
But, Lord, your Church is praying yet,
A thousand years the same.
2 We mark her goodly battlements
And her foundations strong;
We hear within the solemn voice
Of her unending song.
3 For not like kingdoms of the world
Your holy Church, O God,
Though earthquake shocks are threatening her,
And tempests are abroad,
4 Unshaken as eternal hills,
Immovable she stands,
A mountain that shall fill the earth,
A house not made by hands.
Amen. Topics: Service for the Lord's Day After Creed; Other Observances Mission; Other Observances Reformation Day Tune Title: ST. ANNE
