Author: Allen E. Cross Appears in 14 hymnals First Line: The hidden years at Nazareth! Lyrics: 1 The hidden years at Nazareth! How deep and still they seem, Like rivers flowing in the dark, Or waters in a dream! Like waters under Syrian stars Reflecting lights above, Repeating in their silent depths The wonder of God’s love. 2 The hidden years at Nazareth! How deep and true they lie, As open to the smile of God As to the Syrian sky! As open to the heart of man As to the genial sun, With dreams of vast adventuring, And deeds of kindness done! 3 The hidden years at Nazareth! How radiant they rise, With life and death in balance laid Before a Lad’s clear eyes! O soul of youth, forever choose, Forgetting fate or fear, To live for truth or die with God, Who stands beside thee here! Used With Tune: BETHLEHEM

Lift Up Your Heads In Joyful Hope

Author: Martin Madan; Richard W. Adams Appears in 30 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lift up your heads in joyful hope, Salute the happy morn; Hear heav’nly power proclaim the hour: Lo, Jesus Christ is born. All glory be to God on high, To Him all praise is due; The promise sealed, the Lord revealed, He proves the record true. 2 Let joy around like rivers flow, Flow on, and still increase, Spread o’er the earth at Jesus’ birth, With Heav’n and men at peace. Rejoice, come see, salvation free For Adam’s helpless race: From Heaven’s throne to save His own, Messiah comes with grace. 3 Then let us join the skies above, Where shining seraphs sing; Join angel powers, their Lord is ours, Our prophet, priest, and king. The tidings of great joy be spread To earth’s remotest bound; With heav’nly host, to every coast We raise the joyful sound.

Author: Washington Gladden, 1836-1918 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Behold a Sower! from afar He goeth forth with might; The rolling years His furrows are, His seed, the growing light; For all the just His Word is sown, It springeth up alway; The tender blade is hope’s young dawn, The harvest, love’s new day. 2 O Lord of life, to Thee we lift Our hearts in praise for those, Thy prophets, who have shown Thy gift Of grace that ever grows, Of truth that spreads from shore to shore, Of wisdom’s widening ray, Of light that shineth more and more Unto Thy perfect day. 3 Shine forth, O Light, that we may see, With hearts all unafraid, The meaning and the mystery Of things that Thou hast made; Shine forth, and touch the darkling past Beneath Thy beam grow bright; Shine forth, and touch the future vast With Thine untroubled light. 4 Light up Thy Word; the fettered page From killing bondage free: Light up our way; lead forth this age In love’s large liberty. O Light of light! within us dwell, Through us Thy radiance pour, That word and life Thy truths may tell, And praise Thee evermore. AMEN. Topics: The Holy Scripture Used With Tune: BETHLEHEM
