Praise we the Lord this day

Author: Anon. Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 51 hymnals Matching Instances: 10 Lyrics: 1 Praise we the Lord this day, This day so long foretold, Whose promise shone with cheering ray On waiting saints of old. 2 The prophet gave the sign For faithful men to read; A virgin born of David's line, Shall bear the promised Seed. 3 Ask not how this should be, But worship and adore, Like her whom heaven's majesty Came down to shadow o'er. 4 Meekly she bowed her head To hear the gracious word, Mary, the pure and lowly maid, The favoured of the Lord. 5 Blessèd shall be her name In all the Church on earth, Through whom that wondrous mercy came, The incarnate Saviour's birth. Amen. Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts The Anunciation Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE

We give Thee but Thine own

Author: William Walsham How Appears in 481 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1 We give Thee but Thine own, Whate'er the gift may be; All that we have is Thine alone, A trust, O Lord, from Thee. 2 May we Thy bounties thus As stewards true receive, And gladly, as Thou blessest us, To Thee our first-fruits give. 3 O hearts are bruised and dead, And homes are bare and cold, And lambs for whom the Shepherd bled Are straying from the fold. 4 To comfort and to bless, To find a balm for woe, To tend the lone and fatherless, Is angels' work below. 5 The captive to release, To God the lost to bring, To teach the way of life and peace,-- It is a Christ-like thing. 6 And we believe Thy Word, Though dim our faith may be: Whate'er for Thine we do, O Lord, We do it unto Thee. Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Cross and Comfort Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE
