A little child the Saviour came
Author: W. Robertson Appears in 55 hymnals Used With Tune: BROOKFIELD
A little child the Saviour came
O Happy Time! Auspicious Morn!
Author: John Needham Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 O happy time! Auspicious morn!
When the blest Prince of Peace was born;
Angels in raptures hailed His birth,
Who brought down peace from Heaven to earth.
2 ’Twas when th’appointed years were run,
The God of grace sent forth His Son;
In mortal dress this Prince of light
Conceals a form divinely bright.
3 Heaven’s equal laws by us defied
Jesus obeyed and patient died;
Our curse He bears upon the tree,
And by His death makes captives free.
4 The saint’s full bliss, who can relate?
His honors, how divinely great,
Through Christ a son, a royal heir,
What angel can the bliss declare?
5 Ye men with joyful angels sing,
For unto you was born this King;
In heavenly raptures hail His birth;
Who brought down peace from Heaven to earth. Used With Tune: BROOKFIELD Text Sources: Hymns Devotional and Moral on Various Subjects (Bristol, England: S. Farley, 1768)
O Happy Time! Auspicious Morn!
Awake, My Zeal; Awake, My Love
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Awake, my zeal; awake, my love,
To serve my Savior here below,
In works which perfect saints above
And holy angels cannot do.
2. Awake, my charity, to feed
The hungry soul, and clothe the poor;
In Heav’n are found no sons of need,
There all these duties are no more.
3. Subdue thy passions, O my soul!
Maintain the fight, thy work pursue,
Daily thy rising sins control,
And be thy victories ever new.
4. The land of triumph lies on high,
There are no foes t’encounter there;
Lord, I would conquer till I die,
And finish all the glorious war.
5. Let every flying hour confess
I gain Thy Gospel fresh renown;
And when my life and labors cease,
May I possess the promised crown! Used With Tune: BROOKFIELD Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Songs, Book I, 1707, number 46
Awake, My Zeal; Awake, My Love
The Peace Which God Alone Reveals
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 88 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The peace which God alone reveals,
And by His word of grace imparts,
Which only the believer feels,
Direct and keep, and cheer your hearts.
2 And may the holy Three in One,
The Father, Word, and Comforter,
Pour an abundant blessing down
On every soul assembled here! Used With Tune: BROOKFIELD Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London, W. Oliver, 1779), Book 3
The Peace Which God Alone Reveals
Almighty Ruler of the Skies
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 78 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Almighty Ruler of the skies,
Thro’ the wide earth Thy name is spread;
And Thine eternal glories rise
O’er all the heav’ns Thy hands have made.
2. To Thee the voices of the young
A monument of honor raise;
And babes, with uninstructed tongue,
Declare the wonders of Thy praise.
3. Thy power assists their tender age
To bring proud rebels to the ground,
To still the bold blasphemer’s rage,
And all their policies confound.
4. Children amidst Thy temple throng
To see their great Redeemer’s face;
The Son of David is their song,
And young hosannas fill the place.
5. The frowning scribes and angry priests
In vain their impious cavils bring;
Revenge sits silent in their hearts;
While Jewish babes proclaim their King. Used With Tune: BROOKFIELD Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719
Almighty Ruler of the Skies
Ere yet the dawn hath filled the skies
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Johann Heermann Appears in 19 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ere yet the dawn hath filled the skies
Behold my Saviour Christ arise;
He chaseth from us sin and night,
And brings us joy and life and light.
2 O stronger Thou than death and hell,
Where is the foe Thou canst not quell!
What heavy stone Thou canst not roll
From off the prisoned suff'ring soul?
3 If Jesus lives can I be sad?
I know He loves me, and am glad:
Though all the world were dead to me,
Enough, O Christ, if I have Thee!
4 He feeds me, comforts and defends,
And when I die His angels sends
To bear me whither He is gone,
For of His own He loseth none.
5 No more to fear or grief I bow,
God and the angels love me now;
The joys prepared for me to-day
Drive fear and mourning far away.
Amen.

Ere yet the dawn hath filled the skies
Lord Jesus Christ, My Life, My Light
Author: M Behemb; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 34 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, my Life, my Light,
My strength by day, my trust by night,
On earth I'm but a passing guest,
And sorely by my sins oppressed.
2 O let thy sufferings give me power
To meet the last and darkest hour.
Thy cross, the staff whereon I lean,
My couch, the grave where Thou hast been.
3 Since Thou hast died, the pure, the just,
I take my homeward way in trust;
The gates of heaven, Lord, open wide,
When here I may no more abide.
4 And when the last great day is come,
And Thou, our Judge, shalt speak the doom,
Let me with joy behold the light,
And set me then upon Thy right.
5 Renew this wasted flesh of mine,
That like the sun it there may shine
Among the angels pure and bright.
Yea, like thyself, in glorious light.
6 Ah, then I have my heart's desire,
When, singing with the angels' choir,
Among the ransomed of thy grace,
Forever I behold thy face.
AMEN. Topics: Jesus, Our Shepherd Used With Tune: BROOKFIELD
