Joyful, joyful we adore thee

Author: Henry van Dyke, 1852-1933 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #438 (1958) Topics: The Church Worship - The Close of Service Lyrics: 1 Joyful, joyful we adore thee, God of glory, Lord of love; Hearts unfold like flowers before thee, Praising thee, their Sun above. Melt the clouds of sin and sadness, Drive the dark of doubt away; Giver of immortal gladness, Fill us with the light of day. 2 All thy works with joy surround thee, Earth and heaven reflect thy rays, Stars and angels sing around thee, Center of unbroken praise: Field and forest, vale and mountain, Flowery meadow, flashing sea, Chanting bird and flowing fountain, Call us to rejoice in thee. A-men. 3 Thou art giving and forgiving, Ever blessing, ever blest, Well-spring of the joy of living, Ocean-depth of happy rest! Thee our Father, Christ our Brother, All who live in love are thine; Teach us how to love each other, Lift us to the joy divine. 4 Mortals, join the mighty chorus Which the morning stars began; Father-love is reigning o’er us, Brother-love binds man to man. Ever singing, march we onward, Victors in the midst of strife; Joyful music lifts us sunward In the triumph song of life. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ALLELUIA

The head that once was crowned with thorns

Author: Thomas Kelly, 1769 - 1854 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #439 (1958) Topics: The Church Worship - The Close of Service Lyrics: 1 The head that once was crowned with thorns Is crowned with glory now; A royal diadem adorns The mighty Victor's brow. 2 The highest place that heaven affords Is his, is his by right, The King of kings, and Lord of lords, And heaven's eternal Light; 3 The joy of all who dwell above, The joy of all below, To whom he manifests his love And grants his Name to know. 4 To them the Cross with all its shame, With all its grace, is given; Their name an everlasting name, Their joy, the joy of heaven. 5 They suffer with their Lord below, They reign with him above; Their profit and their joy to know The mystery of his love. 6 The Cross he bore is life and health, Though shame and death to him; His people's hope, his people's wealth, Their everlasting theme.

[Refrain] 4 Crowns and thrones may perish, Kingdoms rise and wane, But the Church of Jesus Constant will remain: Gates of hell can never 'Gainst that Church prevail; We have Christ's own promise, And that cannot fail. [Refrain] 5 Onward, then, ye faithful; Join the happy throng; Blend with ours your voices, In the triumph-song: Glory, laud, and honor, Unto Christ the King; This through countless ages Men and angels sing.
