Christmas Morning

Author: Sanford F. Bennett Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: The bells ring out, this Christmas morn Lyrics: 1 The bells ring out, this Christmas morn, From every steeple high, To greet the day when Christ was born, In humble couch to lie. Long years ago this very day The blessed Savior came, To show on earth redemption’s way, And wash away our blame. 2 Then blessed be the Christmas time, Whose bounties all may share! It celebrates the love divine, That had our souls in care. That we lose not the gracious gift, That Christmas morning bore, Our joyful voices let us lift, To praise and to adore.

The Lord Is My Shepherd

Author: Julia H. Johnston Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: The Lord is my shepherd; little lambs Lyrics: 1 The Lord is my shepherd; little lambs May safely trust His care; I shall not want, for He will lead To pastures green and fair. Beside the waters safe and still, He guides me day by day; And in the paths of righteousness, He gently leads the way. 2 When thro’ the valley I must walk, Where death’s dark shadows fall, With rod and staff Thou wilt be near, To help me when I call. A bounteous table Thou dost spread Thou givest more and more; With all the blessings of Thy love, Behold, my cup runs o’er. 3 Thy care unceasing, I will trust, I follow after Thee! For Thou dost call me to Thy side, Thy little lamb to be. Thy goodness, mercy, love and truth, Shall follow me each day; And I shall dwell in God’s own house: My shepherd says I may. Used With Tune: BOLIVIA Text Sources: Bible Study Songs, by Bertha F. Vella and Daniel. B. Towner (Boston: The Pilgrim Press, 1899)

When Mary Poured a Rich Perfume

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: When Mary poured a rich perfume ;on Jesus' weary feet Lyrics: When Mary poured a rich perfume on Jesus’ weary feet, Her caring filled that humble room; the fragrance there was sweet. But full of anger, Judas said, “We could have used this more! Why was her gift not sold instead, and given to the poor?” The Lord replied, “Leave her alone! She bought it for this day. This caring love that she has shown is faithful to God’s way. The poor will always be with you, but you will not have me.” He blessed her and he thanked her, too, for giving lavishly. O Christ, what can your people bring to show you thanks and love? You need no fragrant offering; for now you reign above. Since there will never cease to be the poor throughout the land, May we, your church, serve faithfully by offering them our hand.

In My Distress to GOD I cried

Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In my distress to GOD I cried, and He gave ear to me. From lying lips, and guileful tongue, O LORD, my soul set free. What shall be giv’n thee? Or what shall be done to thee, false tongue? E'en burning coals of juniper, sharp arrows of the strong. 2 Woe’s me that I in Meshech am a sojourner so long; that I in tabernacles dwell to Kedar that belong. My soul with him that hateth peace hath long a dweller been. I am for peace; but when I speak, for battle they are keen.
