It came upon the midnight clear
Author: Edmund Sears, 1810-76 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #29 (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold:
'Peace on the earth, good-will to men,
From heaven's all-gracious King!'
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
2 Still through the cloven skies they come,
With peaceful wings unfurled;
And still their heav'nly music floats
O'er all the weary world;
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing;
And ever o'er it Babel sounds
The blessèd angels sing.
3 Yet with the woes of sin and strife
The world has suffered long;
Beneath the angel-strain have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong;
And man, at war with man, hears not
The love-song which they bring:
O hush the noise, ye men of strife,
And hear the angels sing!
4 For, lo! the days are hastening on,
By prophet bards foretold,
When, with the ever-circling years,
Comes round the age of gold;
When peace shall over all the earth
Its ancient splendours fling,
And the whole world give back the song
Which now the angels sing. Topics: The Christian Year Christmas; Michaelmas Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL
It came upon the midnight clear
Give ye unto the Lord, ye sons
Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #P29a (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Give ye unto the Lord, ye sons
that of the mighty be,
all strength and glory to the Lord
with cheerfulness give ye.
2 O give ye glory to the Lord,
and his great name adore;
and in the beauty of holiness
bow down the Lord before.
3 The Lord’s voice on the waters is;
the God of majesty
doth thunder, and on multitudes
of waters sitteth he.
4 A mighty voice it is that comes
out from the Lord most high;
the voice of that great Lord is full
of glorious majesty.
5 The voice of the Eternal doth
asunder cedars tear;
Jehovah doth the cedars break
that Lebanon doth bear.
6 He makes them like a calf to skip,
even that great Lebanon,
and, like to a young unicorn,
the mountain Sirion.
7 The Lord’s voice cleaves the flames of fire;
8 the desert it doth shake:
the Lord doth make the wilderness
of Kadesh all to quake.
9 The Lord’s voice makes the hinds to calve,
it makes the forest bare:
and in his temple every one
his glory doth declare.
10 The Lord sat on the flood; the Lord
sits King, and ever shall.
11 The Lord will give his people strength,
and with peace bless them all. Scripture: Psalm 29 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 29TH

I Sing the Almighty Power of God
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #31 (2003) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 I sing the almighty power of God
that made the mountains rise,
that spread the flowing seas abroad
and built the lofty skies.
I sing the wisdom that ordained
the sun to rule the day;
the moon shines full at his command
and all the stars obey.
2 I sing the goodness of the Lord
that filled the earth with food;
he formed the creatures with his word
and then pronounced them good.
Lord, how your wonders are displayed
where'er I turn my eye,
if I survey the ground I tread
or gaze upon the sky!
3 There's not a plant or flower below
but makes your glories known;
and clouds arise and tempests blow
by order from your throne;
while all that borrows life from you
is ever in your care,
and everywhere that I may be,
you, God, are present there. Scripture: Psalm 95:6 Languages: English Tune Title: ELLACOMBE

I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say
Author: Horatius N. Bonar, 1808-1889 Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #31 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“Come unto me and rest;
I bring good tidings of release
to you who are oppressed.”
I came to Jesus as I was,
weary and worn and sad;
I found in him a resting place,
and he has made me glad.
2 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“Behold, I freely give
the living water! Thirsty one,
stoop down and drink and live.”
I came to Jesus and I drank
of that life-giving stream;
my thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
and now I live in him.
3 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“I am this dark world’s light;
look unto me; your morn shall rise,
and all your day be bright.”
I looked to Jesus, and I found
in him my star, my sun;
and in that light of life I’ll walk
till trav'ling days are done. Topics: Call/Calling; Calm; Comfort; Darkness; Healing; Jesus Christ; Jesus Christ Light of the World; Living Water; Memorial; Peace of Jesus Christ; Refuge; Trust Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30 Languages: English Tune Title: THE ROWAN TREE

In Thee, O LORD, I Put My Trust
Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns to the Living God #31 (2023) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 In Thee, O LORD, I put my trust,
shamed let me never be;
according to Thy righteousness
do Thou deliver me.
Bow down Thine ear to me, with speed
send me deliverance:
to save me, my strong Rock be Thou,
and my house of defense.
2 Because Thou art my rock, and Thee
I for my fortress take;
therefore do Thou me lead and guide,
e'en for Thine own name’s sake.
And, since Thou art my strength, therefore
pull me out of the net,
which they in subtlety for me
so privily have set.
3 Into Thine hands I do commit
my spir't: for Thou art He,
O Thou, Jehovah, God of truth,
Thou hast redeemed me.
Those that do lying vanities
regard, I have abhorred:
but as for me, my confidence
is fixed on the LORD.
4 I’ll Thy mercy greatly joy:
for Thou my miseries
considered hast; Thou hast my soul
known in adversities;
and Thou hast not enclosed me
within the enemy’s hand;
and by Thee have my feet been made
in a large room to stand.
5 O LORD, upon me mercy have,
for trouble is on me:
mine eye, my belly, and my soul,
with grief consumed be.
Because my life with grief is spent,
my years with sighs and groans:
my strength doth fail; and for my sin
consumed are my bones.
6 I was a scorn to all my foes,
and to my friends a fear;
and specially reproached of those
that were my neighbors near:
when they saw me they from me fled.
E'en so I am forgot
as men are out of mind when dead:
I'm like a broken pot.
7 For slanders I of many heard;
fear compassed me, while they
against me did consult, and plot
to take my life away.
But as for me, O LORD, my trust
upon Thee I did lay;
and I to Thee, Thou art my God,
did confidently say.
8 My times are wholly in Thine hand:
do Thou deliver me
from their hands that mine enemies
and persecutors be.
Thy countenance to shine do Thou
upon Thy servant make:
unto me give salvation,
for Thy great mercies’ sake.
9 Let me not be ashamed, O LORD,
for on Thee called I have:
let wicked men be shamed, let them
be silent in the grave.
To silence put the lying lips,
that grievous things do say,
and hard reports, in pride and scorn,
on righteous men do lay.
10 How great’s the goodness Thou for them
that fear Thee keep’st in store,
and wrought’st for them that trust in Thee
the sons of men before!
In secret of Thy presence Thou
shalt hide them from man’s pride:
from strife of tongues Thou closely shalt,
as in a tent, them hide.
11 All praise and thanks be to the Lord;
for He hath magnified
His wondrous love to me within
a city fortified.
For from Thine eyes cut off I am,
I in my haste had said;
my voice yet heard’st Thou, when to Thee
with cries my moan I made.
12 O love the LORD, all ye His saints;
because the Lord doth guard
the faithful, and He plenteously
proud doers doth reward.
Be of good courage, and He strength
unto your heart shall send,
all ye whose hope and confidence
doth on the LORD depend. Topics: Supplication Scripture: Psalm 31 Languages: English Tune Title: OESTREICH
