Hosanna, raise the pealing hymn

Hosanna, raise the pealing hymn
The highest and the holiest place
Author: Henry Alford, 1810-71 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The highest and the holiest place
Guards not the heart from sin;
The Church that safest seems without
May harbor foes within.
2 Within that small and chosen band,
Beloved above the rest,
One fell from his apostleship,
A traitor soul unblest.
3 But ne'er the great designs of God
Man’s sins shall overthrow;
A better witness to the truth
Forth to the lands shall go.
4 Matthias was the chosen one--
God's purpose cannot fail--
The word of grace no less shall sound,
The truth no less prevail.
5 Righteous, O Lord, are all thy ways:
Long as the worlds endure,
From foes without and foes within
Preserve thy Church secure.

The highest and the holiest place
Christ is the heavenly food that gives
Author: Timothy Rees, 1874-1939 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ is the heavenly food that gives
to every famished soul
new life and strength, new joy and hope,
and faith to make them whole.
2 We all are made for God alone,
without him we are dead;
no food suffices for the soul
but Christ, the living bread.
3 Christ is the unity that binds,
in one the near and far;
for we who share his life divine
his living body are.
4 On earth and in the realms beyond
one fellowship are we;
and at his altar we are knit
in mystic unity. Topics: Holy Communion; Proper 13 Year B Scripture: Ephesians 2:1 Used With Tune: JACKSON

Psalm 116
Blessed is he that carefully
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blessed is he that carefully
considereth the poor;
the Lord in time of trouble him
deliverance will secure.
2 He will him keep, yea save alive;
on earth he blessed shall live,
and to his enemies' desire
thou wilt him never give.
3 The Lord will strengthen when on bed
of weakness he doth mourn;
and in his sickness sore, O Lord,
thou all his bed wilt turn.
4 I said, O Lord, do thou extend
thy mercy unto me;
O do thou heal my soul, because
I have offended thee.
5 Those that to me are enemies
of me do evil say,
when shall he die, that so his name
may perish quite away?
6 To see me if he comes, he speaks
vain words; but then his heart
doth gather mischief, which he tells,
when forth he doth depart.
7 My haters jointly whispering
against me hurt devise;
8 mischief, say they, cleaves fast to him;
he lies and shall not rise.
9 Yea, even mine own familiar friend,
on whom I did rely,
who ate my bread, even he his heel
against me lifted high.
10 But, Lord, be merciful to me,
and up again me raise,
that I may justly them requite
according to their ways.
11 By this I know that certainly
I favoured am by thee;
because my hateful enemy
doth not exult o'er me.
12 But as for me, thou me uphold'st
in mine integrity;
and me before thy countenance
thou sett'st continually.
13 The Lord, the God of Israel,
be blest for ever then,
from age to age eternally
Amen, yea, and amen.
Scripture: Psalm 41 Used With Tune: JACKSON (BYZANTIUM)
Blessed is he that carefully
Blessed are they that undefiled
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 15 hymnals Lyrics: ALEPH THE FIRST PART
1 Blessed are they that undefiled,
and straight are in the way;
who in the Lord’s most holy law
do walk, and do not stray.
2 Blessed are they who to observe
his statutes are inclined;
and who do seek the living God
with their whole heart and mind.
3 Such in his ways do walk, and they
do no iniquity.
4 Thou hast commanded us to keep
thy precepts carefully.
5 O that thy statutes to observe
thou would’st my ways direct!
6 Then shall I not be shamed when I
thy precepts all respect.
7 Then with integrity of heart
thee will I praise and bless,
when I the judgments all have learned
of thy pure righteousness.
8 That I will keep thy statutes all
firmly resolved have I:
O do not then, most gracious God,
forsake me utterly. Scripture: Psalm 119:1-8 Used With Tune: JACKSON (BYZANTIUM)
