Now Praise We Christ, the Holy One

Author: Richard Massie; Martin Luther; Coelius Sedulius Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #104 (1941) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Now praise we Christ, the Holy One, The blessed virgin Mary’s Son, Far as the glorious sun doth shine, E’en to the world’s remote confine. 2 He who Himself all things did make A servant’s form vouchsafed to take That He as man mankind might win And save His creatures from their sin. 3 The grace and pow'r of God the Lord Upon the mother was outpoured; A virgin pure and undefiled In wondrous wise conceived a child. 4 The noble mother bore a Son-- For so did Gabriel’s promise run-- Whom John confessed and leaped with joy Ere yet the mother knew her Boy. 5 Upon a manger filled with hay In poverty content He lay; With milk was fed the Lord of all, Who feeds the ravens when they call. 6 The heavenly choirs rejoice and raise Their voice to God in songs of praise. To humble shepherds is proclaimed The Shepherd who the world hath framed. 7 All honor unto Christ be paid, Pure Offspring of the favored maid, With Father and with Holy Ghost, Till time in endless time be lost. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Christmas Scripture: Philippians 2:6-7 Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTUM WIR SOLLEN LOBEN SCHON

From East to West

Author: C. Sedulius; J. Ellerton, 1826-93 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #267 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: From east to west, from shore to shore Lyrics: 1 From east to west, from shore to shore, Let ev'ry heart awake and sing The holy child whom Mary bore, The Christ, the everlasting King. 2 Behold, the world's creator wears The form and fashion of our frame; Our very flesh our Maker shares, To save a fallen world He came. 3 For this how wondrously he wrought! A maiden, in her lowly place, Became, in ways beyond all thought, The chosen vessel of his grace. 4 She bowed her to the angel's word, Declaring what the Father willed, And suddenly the promised Lord That pure and hallowed temple filled. 5 He shrank not from the oxen's stall, He lay within the manger bed, And He whose bounty feedeth all At Mary's breast Himself was fed. 6 And while the angels in the sky Sang praise above the silent field, To shepherds poor the Lord Most High, The one great Shepherd, was revealed. 7 All glory for this blessed morn To God the Father ever be; All praise to thee, O Virgin-born, All praise, O Holy Ghost, to Thee.
