Creator of the starry height
Author: J. M. Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 91 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1:16 Lyrics: 1 Creator of the starry height,
thy people's everlasting light,
Jesu, redeemer of us all,
hear thou thy servants when they call.
2 Thou, sorrowing at the helpless cry
of all creation doomed to die,
didst come to save our fallen race
by healing gifts of heavenly grace.
3 When earth was near its evening hour,
thou didst, in love's redeeming power,
like bridegroom from his chamber, come
forth from a virgin-mother's womb.
*4 At thy great name, exalted now,
all knees in lowly homage bow;
all things in heaven and earth adore,
and own thee King for evermore.
5 To thee, O Holy One, we pray,
our judge in that tremendous day,
ward off, while yet we dwell below,
the weapons of our crafty foe.
6 To God the Father, God the Son,
and God the Spirit, Three in One,
praise, honour, might, and glory be
from age to age eternally. Amen. Topics: Advent Used With Tune: CONDITOR ALME Text Sources: Latin

Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright
Author: St Joseph the Hymnogrpher, d. 883; J. M. Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 69 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1:31 Lyrics: 1 Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright,
filled with celestial resplendence and light,
these that, where night never followeth day,
raise the Trisagion ever and aye:
2 These are thy counsellors, these dost thou own,
Lord God of Sabaoth, nearest thy throne;
these are thy ministers, these dost thou send,
help of the helpless ones, us to defend.
*3 These keep the guard amid Salem's dear bowers;
Thrones, Principalities, Virtues, and Powers;
where, with the Living Ones, mystical Four,
Cherubim, Seraphim bow and adore.
4 'Who like the Lord?' thunders Michael the Chief;
Raphael, 'the Cure of God', comforteth grief;
and, as at Nazareth, prophet of peace,
Gabriel, 'the Light of God', bringeth release.
5 Then, when the earth was first poised in mid-space,
then, when the planets first sped on their race,
then, when were ended the six days’ employ,
then all the Sons of God shouted for joy.
6 Still let them succor us; still let them fight,
Lord of angelic hosts, battling for right;
till, where their anthems they ceaselessly pour,
we with the angels may bow and adore. Topics: St. Michael and All Angels Used With Tune: TRISAGION Text Sources: Greek hymn

Revive us, Lord, the world is waiting,
equip your church to spread the light.

A Summary View of the Creation
Author: Needham Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1 First Line: Look up, ye saints, direct your eyes Lyrics: 1 Look up, ye saints, direct your eyes
To Him who dwells above the skies;
With your glad notes his praise rehearse
Who form'd the mighty universe.
2 He spoke, and from the womb of night
At once sprang up the cheering light;
Him discord heard, and at his nod
Beauty awoke, and spoke the God.
3 The word he gave, th' obedient sun
Began his glorious grace to run:
Nor silver moon, nor stars delay
To glide along th' aetherial way.
4 Teeming with life, air, earth, and sea
Obey th' Almighty's high decree;
To every tribe he gives their food,
Then speaks the whole divinely good.
5 But to complete the wondrous plan,
From earth, and dust, he fashion'd Man;
In man the last, in him the best,
The Maker's image stands confest.
6 Lord, while thy glorious works I view,
Form thou my heart and soul anew;
Here bid thy purest light to shine,
And beauty glow with charms divine. Topics: Creation and Providence; A Summary view of Creation; Creation Of Man; Submission filial

O Holy Ghost, thy people bless
Author: H. W. Baker, 1821-1877 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 25 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1:2 Lyrics: 1 O Holy Ghost, thy people bless
who long to feel thy might,
and fain would grow in holiness
as children of the light.

our selves to be thy throne;
let every thought and deed and word
thy pure dominion own.

as on the formless deep;
give life and order, light and love,
where now is death or sleep.

his saving truth reveal;
our tongues inspire his praise to sing,
our hearts his love to feel.

for joy or chastening, blow;
the garden-spices shall spring forth
if thou wilt bid them flow.

all graces come from thee;
grant us to know and serve aright
one God in Persons Three. Topics: Pentecost Used With Tune: ST TIMOTHY
