Sing of God Made Manifest

Author: Carl P. Daw Jr. Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Nativity/Christmas; Christian Year Epiphany; Christian Year Baptism of Jesus; Christian Year Transfiguration; Incarnation; Jesus Christ Birth Lyrics: 1 Sing of God made manifest in a child robust and blest, to whose home in Bethlehem where a star had guided them, magi came and gifts unbound, signs mysterious and profound: myrrh and frankincense and gold grave and God and king foretold. 2 Sing of God made manifest when at Jordan John confessed, “I should be baptized by you, but your bidding I will do.” Then from heaven a double sign – dove-like Spirit, voice divine – hailed the true Anointed One: “This is my beloved Son.” 3 Sing of God made manifest when Christ came as wedding guest and at Cana gave a sign, turning water into wine; further still was love revealed as he taught, forgave, and healed, bringing light and life to all who would listen to God’s call. 4 Sing of God made manifest on the cloud-capped mountain’s crest, where the law and prophets waned so that Christ alone remained: glimpse of glory, pledge of grace, given as Jesus set his face towards the waiting cross and grave, sign of hope that God would save. Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12 Used With Tune: SALZBURG
