Christians, awake! salute the happy morn
Author: John Byrom Hymnal: HAGA1895 #176 (1895) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Lyrics: 1 Christians, awake! salute the happy morn
Whereon the Savior of the world was born;
Rise to adore the mystery of love
Which hosts of angels chanted from above;
With them the joyful tidings first begun
of God Incarnate and the Virgin's Son.
2 Then to the watchful shepherds it was told,
Who heard the angelic herald's voice: "Behold,
I bring good tidings of a Savior's birth
To you, and all the nations upon earth.
This day hath God fulfilled His promised word;
This day is born a Savior, Christ the Lord."
3 He spake: and straightway the celestial choir
In hymns of joy, unknown before, conspire;
The praises of redeeming love they sang,
And heaven's whole orb with alleluias rang:
God's highest glory was their anthem still,
Peace upon earth, and mutual good will.
4 To Bethlehem straight the enlightened shepherds ran,
To see the wonder God had wrought for man;
And found, with Joseph and the blessèd maid,
Her Son, the Savior, in a manger laid:
Amazed, the wondrous story they proclaim,
The first apostles of His infant fame.
5. Let us, like these good shepherds, then, employ
Our grateful voices to proclaim the joy;
Trace we the Babe, who has retrieved our loss,
From His poor manger to His bitter cross;
Treading His steps, assisted by His grace,
Till man's first heavenly state again takes place.
Amen. Languages: English
Christians, awake! salute the happy morn
Hark! hark, my soul! Angelic songs are swelling
Author: Rev. Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: HAGA1895 #620 (1895) Meter: 11.10.11.10.9.11 Lyrics: 1 Hark! hark, my soul, Angelic songs are swelling
O'er earth's green fields and ocean's wave-beat shore:
How sweet the truth those blessed strains are telling
Of that new life when sin shall be no more.
Angels of Jesus, Angels of light,
Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night.
2 Onward we go, for still we hear them singing,
"Come, weary souls, for Jesus bids you come;"
And through the dark, its echoes sweetly ringing,
The music of the gospel leads us home.
Angels of Jesus, Angels of light,
Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night.
3 Far, far away, like bells at evening pealing,
The voice of Jesus sounds o'er land and sea;
And laden souls by thousands meekly stealing,
Kind Shepherd, turn their weary steps to Thee.
Angels of Jesus, Angels of light,
Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night.
4 Rest comes at length: though life be long and dreary,
The day must dawn, and darksome night be past;
Faith's journeys end in welcomes to the weary,
And heaven, the heart's true home, will come at last.
Angels of Jesus, Angels of light,
Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night.
5 Angels, sing on, your faithful watches keeping;
Sing us sweet fragments of the songs above;
Till morning's joy shall end the night of weeping,
And life's long shadows break in cloudless love.
Angels of Jesus, Angels of light,
Singing to welcome the pilgrims of the night.
Amen. Languages: English
Hark! hark, my soul! Angelic songs are swelling
Father of all, to thee
Author: Rev. John Julian Hymnal: HAGA1895 #65 (1895) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Father of all, to Thee,
With loving hearts we pray,
Through Him, in mercy given,
The Life, the Truth, the Way;
From heaven, Thy throne, in mercy shed
Thy blessings on each bended head.
2 Father of all, to Thee,
Our contrite hearts we raise,
Unstrung by sin and pain,
Long voiceless in Thy praise;
Breathe Thou the silent chords along,
Until they tremble into song.
3 Father of all, to Thee,
we breathe unuttered fears,
Deep-hidden in our souls,
That have no voice but tears;
Take Thou our hand, and through the wild
Lead gently on, each trembling child.
4 Father of all, may we
In praise our tongues employ,
When gladness fills the soul
With deep and hallowed joy;
In storm and calm give us to see
The path of peace, which leads to Thee.
Amen. Languages: English

It is not death to die
Author: Rev. H. A. César Malan; Rev. George W. Bethune Hymnal: HAGA1895 #611 (1895) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 It is not death to die,
To leave this weary road,
And midst the brotherhood on high
To be at home with God.
2 It is not death to close
The eye long dimmed by tears,
And wake, in glorious repose
To spend eternal years.
3 It is not death to bear
The wrench that sets us free
From dungeon chain, to breathe the air
Of boundless liberty.
4 It is not death to fling
Aside this sinful dust,
And rise, on strong, exulting wing,
To live among the just.
5 Jesus, Thou Prince of Life,
Thy chosen cannot die:
Like Thee, they conquer in the strife,
To reign with Thee on high.
Amen.

It is not death to die
Come unto Me, ye weary
Author: William C. Dix Hymnal: HAGA1895 #446 (1895) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 "Come unto Me, ye weary,
And I will give you rest."
O blessed voice of Jesus
Which comes to hearts oppressed!
It tells of benediction,
Of pardon, grace, and peace,
Of joy that hath no ending,
Of love which cannot cease.
2 "Come unto Me, dear children,
And I will give you light."
O loving voice of Jesus
Which comes to cheer the night!
Our hearts were filled with sadness,
And we had lost our way;
But morning brings us gladness,
And songs the break of day.
3 "Come unto Me, ye fainting,
And I will give you life."
O peaceful voice of Jesus
Which comes to end our strife!
The foe is stern and eager,
The fight is fierce and long;
But Thou hast made us mighty,
And stronger than the strong.
4 "And whosoever cometh
I will not cast him out."
O patient love of Jesus
Which drives away our doubt;
Which calls us, very sinners,
Unworthy though we be
Of love so free and boundless,
To come, dear Lord, to Thee!
Amen. Languages: English
Come unto Me, ye weary
Holy Spirt, Truth Divine
Author: Rev. Samuel Longfellow Hymnal: HAGA1895 #279 (1895) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics:
1 Holy Spirit, Truth Divine,
Dawn upon this soul of mine;
Word of God, and inward light,
Wake my spirit, clear my sight.
2 Holy Spirit, Love Divine,
Glow within this heart of mine;
Kindle every high desire;
Perish self in Thy pure fire!

Fill and nerve this will of mine;
By Thee may I strongly live,
Bravely bear, and nobly strive.
4 Holy Spirit, Right Divine,
King within my conscience reign;
Be my Law, and I shall be
Firmly bound, for ever free.
5 Holy Spirit, Peace Divine,
Still this restless heart of mine;
Speak to calm this tossing sea,
Stayed in Thy tranquillity.
6 Holy Spirit, Joy Divine,
Gladden Thou this heart of mine;
In the desert ways I sing,
"Spring, O Well, for ever spring."
Amen.

Holy Spirt, Truth Divine
Happy the souls to Jesus joined
Author: Rev. Charles Wesley Hymnal: HAGA1895 #416 (1895) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Happy the souls to Jesus joined,
And saved by grace alone;
Walking in all Thy ways, we find
Our heaven on earth begun.
2 The Church triumphant in Thy love,
Their mighty joys we know;
They sing the Lamb in hymns above,
And we in hymns below.
3 Thee in Thy glorious realm they praise,
And bow before Thy throne,
We in the kingdom of Thy grace:
The kingdoms are but one.
4 The holy to the holiest leads;
From hence our spirits rise;
And he that in Thy statutes treads
Shall meet Thee in the skies.
Amen. Languages: English
Happy the souls to Jesus joined
Lord, I believe; Thy power I own
Author: Rev. John R. Wreford Hymnal: HAGA1895 #486 (1895) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Lord, I believe; Thy power I own,
Thy Word I would obey;
I wander comfortless and lone
When from Thy truth I stray.
2. Lord, I believe; but gloomy fears
Sometimes bedim my sight;
I look to Thee with prayers and tears,
And cry for strength and light.
3. Lord, I believe; but Thou dost know
My faith is cold and weak;
Pity my fraility, and bestow
The confidence I seek.
4. Yes, I believe; and only Thou
Canst give my soul relief:
Lord, to Thy truth my spirit bow;
Help Thou mine unbelief.
Amen. Languages: English
Lord, I believe; Thy power I own
O could I speak the matchless worth
Author: Rev. Samuel Medley Hymnal: HAGA1895 #159 (1895) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics:
1 O could I speak the matchless worth,
O could I sound the glories forth
Which in my Savior shine,
I'd soar, and touch the heavenly strings,
And vie with Gabriel while he sings
In notes almost Divine,
In notes almost Divine.
2 I'd sing the precious blood He spilt,
My ransom from the dreadful guilt
Of sin, and wrath Divine:
I'd sing His glorious righteousness,
In which all-perfect, heavenly dress,
My soul shall ever shine,
My soul shall ever shine.
3 I'd sing the characters He bears,
And all the forms of love He wears,
Exalted on His throne:
In loftiest songs of sweetest praise,
I would to everlasting days
Make all His glories known,
Make all His glories known.
4 Well, the delightful day will come
When my dear Lord will bring me home,
And I shall see His face;
Then with my Savior, Brother, Friend,
A blest eternity I'll spend,
Triumphant in His grace.
Amen. Languages: English
O could I speak the matchless worth
Father of all, from land and sea
Author: Bishop Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: HAGA1895 #419 (1895) Meter: 8.8.8.4 Lyrics: 1 Father of all, from land and sea
The nations sing, "Thine, Lord, are we;
Countless in number, but in Thee
May we be one."
2 O Son of God, whose love so free
For men did make Thee man to be,
United to our God in Thee
May we be one.
3 Thou, Lord, didst once for all atone;
Thee may both Jew and Gentile own
Of their two walls the Corner-stone,
Making them one.
4 Join high with low, join young with old,
In love that never waxes cold;
Under one Shepherd, in one fold,
Make us all one.
5 O Spirit blest, who from above
Cam'st gently gliding like a dove,
Calm all our strive, give faith and love;
O make us one.
6 So, when the world shall pass away,
We shall awake with joy and say,
"Now in the bliss of endless day
We all are one."
Amen. Languages: English
Father of all, from land and sea
Just as I am, without one plea
Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: HAGA1895 #477 (1895) Meter: 8.8.8.6 Lyrics:
1 Just as I am, without one plea
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidd'st me come to thee,
O Lamb of God, I come.
2 Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To Thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come.
3 Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come.
4 Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind;
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need, in Thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come.
5 Just as I am! Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
Because Thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come.
6 Just as I am! Thy love unknown
Has broken every barrier down;
Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come.
Amen.

Father of heaven whose love profound

A ransom for our souls hath found,
Before Thy throne we sinners bend:
To us Thy pardoning love extend.
2 Almighty Son, Incarnate Word,
Our Prophet, Priest, Redeemer, Lord,
Before Thy throne we sinners bend:
To us Thy saving grace extend.
3 Eternal Spirit, by whose breath
The soul is raised from sin and death,
Before Thy throne we sinners bend:
To us Thy quickening power extend.
4 Jehovah, - Father, Spirit, Son -
Mysterious Godhead, Three in One,
Before Thy throne we sinners bend:
Grace, pardon, life, to us extend.

Father of heaven whose love profound
Bow down Thine ear, Almighty Lord
Author: Rev. Thomas E. Powell Hymnal: HAGA1895 #338 (1895) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Bow down Thine ear, Almighty Lord,
And hear Thy Church's suppliant cry,
For all who preach Thy saving word,
And wait upon Thy ministry.
2 In mercy, Father, now give heed,
And pour Thy quickening Spirit's breath
On those whom Thou hast called to feed
Thy flock redeemed by Jesus' death.
3 O Saviour from Thy piercèd hand
Shed o'er them all Thy gifts Divine;
That those who in Thy presence stand
May do Thy will with love like Thine.
4 Blest Spirit, in their hearts abide,
And give them grace to watch and pray;
That, as they seek Thy flock to guide,
Themselves may keep the narrow way.
5 O God, Thy strength and mercy send
To shield them in their strife with sin;
Grant them, enduring to the end,
The crown of life at last to win.

Bow down Thine ear, Almighty Lord
Behold! a Stranger's at the door
Author: Rev. Joseph Grigg Hymnal: HAGA1895 #445 (1895) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Behold! a Stranger's at the door;
He gently knocks, has knocked before;
Has waited long, is waiting still:
You treat no other friend so ill.
2 But will He prove a friend indeed?
He will; the very Friend you need;
The Man of Nazareth, 'tis He,
With garments dyed at Calvary.
3 O lovely attitude! He stands
With melting heart and laden hands;
O matchless kindness! and He shows
This matchless kindness to His foes.
4 Rise, touched with gratitude Divine;
Turn out His enemy and thine,
That soul-destroying monster, sin,
And let the heavenly Stranger in.
5 Admit Him ere His anger burn;
His feet, departed, ne'er return;
Admit Him, or the hour's at hand
When at His door denied you'll stand.
Amen.
