We sing the glorious conquest

Author: J. Ellerton Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #150 (1898) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts The Conversion of St. Paul Lyrics: 1 We sing the glorious conquest Before Damascus gate, When Saul, the Church's spoiler, Came breathing threats and hate; The ravening wolf rushed forward Full early for the prey; But lo! the Shepherd met him, And bound him fast to-day. 2 Oh, glory most excelling That smote across his path! Oh, light that pierced and blinded The zealot in his wrath! Oh, voice that spake within him The calm, reproving word! Oh, love that sought and held him The bondman of his Lord! 3 O Wisdom ordering all things In order strong and sweet, What nobler spoil was ever Cast at the Victor's feet? What wiser master-builder E'er wrought at Thine employ Than he, till now so furious Thy building to destroy? 4 Lord, teach Thy Church the lesson, Still in her darkest hour Of weakness and of danger, To trust Thy hidden power: Thy grace by ways mysterious The wrath of man can bind, And in Thy boldest foeman Thy chosen saint can find. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MUNICH

Disposer supreme, and judge of the earth

Author: J. B. de Santeuil, 1630-97; Isaac Williams, 1802-65 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #216 (1986) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: The Conversion of St. Paul January 25th Lyrics: 1 Disposer supreme, and judge of the earth, Who choosest for thine the weak and the poor, To frail earthen vessels, and things of no worth, Entrusting thy riches which ay shall endure; 2 Throughout the wide world their message is heard, And swift as the wind it circles the earth; It echoes the voice of the heavenly Word, And brings unto mortals the hope of new birth. 3 Their cry thunders forth, 'Christ Jesus is Lord', Then Satan doth fear, his citadels fall: As when those shrill trumpets were raised at thy word, And one long blast shattered proud Jericho's wall. 4 O loud be the call, and stirring the sound, To rouse us, O Lord, from sin's deadly sleep; May lights which thou kindlest in darkness around, The dull soul awaken, her vigil to keep. 5 All honour and praise, dominion and might, To thee, Three in One, eternally be, Who pouring around us thy glorious light, Dost call us from darkness thy glory to see.

In the cross of Christ I glory

Author: John Bowring Hymnal: The Hymnal #152b (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Holy Days Conversion of St. Paul Lyrics: In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. When the woes of life o'ertake me, Hopes deceive, and fears annoy, Never shall the cross forsake me: Lo! it glows with peace and joy. When the sun of bliss is beaming Light and love upon my way, From the cross the radiance streaming, Adds new luster to the day. Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, By the cross are sanctified; Peace is there that knows no measure, Joys that through all time abide. In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. Tune Title: RATHBUN
