Thou Virgin-Born Incarnate Word

Author: Anna B. Hoppe Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6971 Meter: 8.7.87.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1. Thou virgin-born incarnate Word, Begotten of the Father, Blest Son of Mary, David’s Lord, In Thy dear name we gather. As Thou hast promised, be Thou nigh, And hear us as we testify, Thou art the Christ, our Savior. 2. The herald in the wilderness Prepares the way before Thee; With him let us Thy name confess, With him let us adore Thee. Grant that we hearken to his cry, Repent, the kingdom draweth nigh, And seek Thee, Christ our Savior. 3. Thou art indeed God’s holy Son, Beloved of Him so dearly, The mighty works that Thou hast done Reveal Thy Godhead clearly: The blind can see, the sick are healed, The lips once dumb are now unsealed, All power is Thine, dear Jesus! 4. Thou art our peace, our righteousness, The rock of our salvation. Clothed in Thy garb of holiness, We fear no condemnation. Thy blood has cleansed away our sin, Through Thee eternal life we win, O crucified Redeemer! Languages: English Tune Title: MITT HJERTA

The Lord my pasture shall prepare

Author: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #458 (1986) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 THE Lord my pasture shall prepare, And feed me with a shepherd's care; His presence shall my wants supply, And guard me with a watchful eye; My noonday walks he shall attend, And all my midnight hours defend. 2 When in the sultry glebe I faint, Or on the thirsty mountain pant, To fertile vales and dewy meads My weary wandering steps he leads, Where peaceful rivers, soft and slow, Amid the verdant landscape flow. 3 Though in a bare and rugged way Through devious lonely wilds I stray, Thy bounty shall my pains beguile; The barren wilderness shall smile With sudden greens and herbage crowned, And streams shall murmur all around. 4 Though in the paths of death I tread, With gloomy horrors overspread, My steadfast heart shall fear no ill, For thou, 0 Lord, art with me still: Thy friendly staff shall give me aid, And guide me through the dreadful shade.

O what their joy and their glory must be

Author: Pierre Abélard, 1079-1142; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #695 (2010) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 O what their joy and their glory must be, those endless sabbaths the blessèd ones see; crown for the valiant, to weary ones rest; God shall be all, and in all ever blest. *2 What are the Monarch, his court, and his throne? What are the peace and the joy that they own? O that the blest ones, who in it have share, all that they feel could as fully declare. 3 Truly Jerusalem name we that shore, vision of peace, that brings joy evermore. Wish and fulfillment can severed be ne'er, nor the things prayed for come short of the prayer. 4 There, where no troubles distraction can bring, we the sweet anthems of Sion shall sing, while for thy grace, Lord, their voices of praise thy blessèd people eternally raise. *5 There dawns no sabbath, no sabbath is o’er, those sabbath-keepers have one evermore; one and unending is that triumph-song which to the angels and us shall belong. 6 Now in the meanwhile, with hearts raised on high, we for that country must yearn and must sigh; seeking Jerusalem, dear native land, through our long exile on Babylon’s strand. 7 Low before him with our praises we fall, of whom, and in whom, and through whom are all: of whom, the Father; and in whom, the Son; through whom, the Spirit, with them ever One.
