Cross of Jesus, Cross of Sorrow
Author: William J. Sparrow-Simpson, 1860-1952 Hymnal: Worship Supplement 2000 #721 (2007) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Cross of Jesus, cross of sorrow,
Where the blood of Christ was shed,
Perfect man on thee did suffer,
Perfect God on thee has bled!
2 Here the King of all the ages,
Throned in light ere worlds could be,
Robed in mortal flesh is dying,
Crucified by sin for me.
3 O mysterious condescending!
O abandonment sublime!
Very God Himself is bearing
All the sufferings of time!

All who love and serve your city
Author: Erik Routley, 1917-1982 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #721 (1997) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 All who love and serve your city,
all who bear its daily stress,
all who cry for peace and justice,
all who curse and all who bless:
2 in your day of loss and sorrow,
in your day of helpless strife,
honour, peace and love retreating,
seek the Lord, who is your life.
3 In your day of wealth and plenty,
wasted work and wasted play,
call to mind the word of Jesus,
"You must work while it is day."
4 For all days are days of judgement,
and the Lord is waiting still,
drawing near a world that spurns him,
offering peace from Calvary's hill.
5 Risen Lord, shall yet the city
be the city of despair?
Come today, our Judge, our Glory,
be its name “The Lord is there!" Topics: City / City of God; Discouragement / Despair; Judgement; Mission; New Day; One Life in Christ Justice; Peace; Servant / Service; Social Concerns / Social Justice Scripture: Isaiah 55:6 Languages: English Tune Title: CHARLESTOWN

Christ, Above All Glory Seated
Author: Anonymous; James R. Woodford Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #723 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1. Christ, above all glory seated!
King triumphant, strong to save!
Dying, Thou hast death defeated;
Buried, Thou hast spoiled the grave.
2. Thou art gone, where now is given
What no mortal might could gain,
On the eternal throne of Heaven,
In Thy Father’s power to reign.
3. There Thy kingdoms all adore Thee,
Heaven above and earth below;
While the depths of hell before Thee
Trembling and defeated bow.
4. We, O Lord, with hearts adoring
Follow Thee above the sky!
Hear our prayers Thy grace imploring,
Lift our souls to Thee on high.
5. So when Thou again in glory
On the clouds of Heaven shalt shine,
We Thy flock may stand before Thee,
Owned for evermore as Thine.
6. Hail! all hail! in Thee confiding,
Jesus, Thee shall all adore,
In Thy Father’s might abiding
With one Spirit evermore! Languages: English Tune Title: ST. OSWALD

Hark! A Thrilling Voice Is Sounding
Author: Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Hymnal: Hymnal Supplement 1991 #725 (1991) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Hark! A thrilling voice is sounding!
"Christ is near," we hear the cry.
"Cast away the works of darkness,
All you children of the day!"
2 Startled at the solemn warning,
Let the earth-bound soul arise;
Christ, its sun, all sloth dispelling,
Shines upon the morning skies.
3 See the Lamb, so long expected,
Comes with pardon down from heav'n.
Let us haste, with tears of sorrow,
One and all, to be forgiv'n;
4 So when next he comes in glory
And the world is wrapped in fear,
He will shield us with his mercy
And with words of love draw near.
5 Honor, glory, might, dominion
To the Father and the Son,
With the ever-living Spirit
While eternal ages run.

Where is this stupendous stranger
Author: Christopher Smart (1722-1771) Hymnal: Wonder, Love, and Praise #726 (1997) Meter: 8.7.8.7 First Line: Where is this stupendous stranger? Lyrics: 1 Where is this stupendous stranger?
Gentle shepherd now, advise.
Lead me to my Master's manger,
show me where my Savior lies.
O Most Mighty! O Most Holy!
Far beyond the seraph's thought,
art thou then so weak and lowly
as unheeded prophets taught?
2 O the magnitude of meekness!
Worth from worth immortal sprung;
O the strength of infant weakness,
if eternal is so young!
God all bounteous, all creative,
whom no ills from good dissuade,
is incarnate, and a native
of the very world he made. Topics: Hymns and Spiritual Songs Advent and Christmas Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Languages: English Tune Title: MARIPOSA
