Savior of the Nations, Come
Author: William M. Reynolds; St. Ambrose, d. 397; Martin Luther Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 44 hymnals Scripture: John 1:14 Lyrics: 1 Savior of the nations, come,
Virgin's son, make here Thy home!
Marvel now, O heav'n and earth,
That the Lord chose such a birth.
2 Not by human flesh and blood
By the Spirit of our God,
Was the Word of God made flesh--
Woman's Offspring, pure and fresh.
3 Wondrous birth! O wondrous Child
Of the Virgin undefiled!
Tho' by all the world disowned,
Still to be in heav'n enthroned.
4 From the Father forth He came
And returneth to the same,
Captive leading death and hell--
High the song of triumph swell!
5 Thou the Father's only Son,
Hast o'er sin the victory won.
Boundless shall Thy kingdom be;
When shall we its glories see?
6 Brightly doth Thy manger shine,
Glorious is its light divine.
Let not sin o'ercloud this light;
Ever be our faith thus bright.
7 Praise to God the Father sing,
Praise to God the Son, our King,
Praise to God the Spirit be
Ever and eternally.

Songs of thankfulness and praise
Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-1885 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 127 hymnals Scripture: John 1:14 Lyrics: 1 Songs of thankfulness and praise
Jesus, Lord, to you we raise,
God revealed by guiding star
to the sages from afar,
branch of royal David's stem,
in your birth at Bethlehem:
anthems be to you addressed,
God in Christ made manifest.
2 God revealed at Jordan's stream
God's beloved Son supreme,
and at Cana, wedding-guest,
in your power manifest,
God revealed in works divine,
changing water into wine:
anthems be to you addressed,
God in Christ made manifest.
3 God revealed in making whole
weakened limbs and fainting soul,
God revealed in valiant fight,
quelling all the devil's might,
God revealed in gracious will,
ever bringing good from ill:
anthems be to you addressed,
God in Christ made manifest.
4 Manifest on mountain height,
shining in resplendent light,
where disciples filled with awe
your transfigured glory saw:
from that place you went with them
steadfast to Jerusalem;
cross and Easter day attest
God in Christ made manifest.
5 Grant us grace to see you, Lord,
mirrored in your holy word;
may we imitate you still
and obey your perfect will,
that we like to you may be,
at your great epiphany:
may your glory be confessed,
God in Christ made manifest. Topics: Church Year Epiphany; Jesus Christ Healer and Teacher; Wine Used With Tune: SALZBURG (HINTZE)

Sing of God Made Manifest
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944- Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: John 1:14 Lyrics: 1 Sing of God made manifest
in a child robust and blest,
to whose home in Bethlehem
where a star had guided them,
Magi came and gifts unbound,
signs mysterious and profound:
myrrh and frankincense and gold
grave and God and King foretold.
2 Sing of God made manifest
when at Jordan John confessed,
"I should be baptized by you,
but your bidding I will do."
Then from heaven a double sign--
dove-like Spirit, voice divine--
hailed the true Anointed One:
"This is my beloved Son."
3 Sing of God made manifest
when Christ came as wedding guest
and at Cana gave a sign,
turning water into wine;
further still was love revealed
as he taught, forgave, and healed,
bringing light and life to all
who would listen to God's call.
4 Sing of God made manifest
on the cloud capped mountain's crest,
where the law and prophets waned
so that Christ alone remained:
glimpse of glory, pledge of grace,
given as Jesus set his face
towards the waiting cross and grave,
sign of hope that God would save. Used With Tune: SALZBURG

Sing, my tongue, how glorious battle
Author: John Mason Neale (1818-1866); Arthur Wellesley Wotherspoon (1853-1936); William Mair (1830-1920); Venantius Honorius Clementianus Fortunatus (c. 535-609) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: John 1:14 Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, how glorious battle
glorious victory became;
and above the cross, his trophy,
tell the triumph and the fame:
tell how he, the earth's Redeemer,
by his death for all o'ercame.
2 When the thirty years were ended,
humbly lived for all to see,
willingly he met his passion,
born to set his people free:
on the cross the Lamb is lifted,
there the sacrifice to be.
3 His the nails, the spear, the spitting,
reed and vinegar and gall;
from his patient body piercèd
blood and water streaming fall:
earth and sea and stars and mankind
by that stream are cleansèd all.
4 Faithful cross, above all other,
one and only noble tree,
none in foliage, none in blossom,
none in fruit your match can be:
focus of the world's redemption,
your dear burden makes us free.
5 Praise and honour to the Father,
praise and honour to the Son,
praise and honour to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One,
one in might, and one in glory,
while eternal ages run. Topics: Christ Incarnate Passion and Death; Christian Year Good Friday; Jesus cross Used With Tune: PANGE LINGUA
Sing, my tongue, how glorious battle
