The Babe of Bethlehem
Author: William C. Dix Hymnal: Laudes Domini #65 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: As with gladness men of old Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old
Did the guiding star behold,
As with joy they hailed its light,
Leading onward, beaming bright;
So, most gracious Lord, may we
Evermore be led to thee.
2 As with joyful steps they sped,
Saviour, to thy manger bed,
There to bend the knee before
Thee whom heaven and earth adore;
So may we with willing feet
Ever seek the mercy-seat.
3 As they offered gifts most rare
At thy cradle rude and bare,
So may we with holy joy,
Pure and free from sin's alloy,
All our costliest treasures bring,
Christ, to thee our heavenly King.
4 Holy Jesus, every day
Keep us in the narrow way;
And, when earthly things are past,
Bring our ransomed souls at last
Where they need no star to guide,
Where no clouds thy glory hide. Languages: English Tune Title: DIX

Evening psalm

Ruler of the earth and sea,
Hear us, while we lift to thee

Lift on us thy light divine;
And let charity benign
Breathe on us her balm.

Let it close on sin forgiven;
Fold us in the peace of heaven,
Shed a vesper calm.

Darkling here we worship thee;
With the saints hereafter we
Hope to bear the palm. Languages: English Tune Title: GREY

Borne aloft on angels' wings,

Jesus, hear and save!

Judge of angels and of men,
Hear us now, and hear us then,
Jesus, hear and save! Languages: English Tune Title: GREY

Psalm 23
Author: James Merrick Hymnal: Laudes Domini #42 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: To thy pastures fair and large Lyrics: 1 To thy pastures fair and large,
Heavenly Shepherd, lead thy charge,
And my couch, with tenderest care,
"Mid the springing grass prepare.
2 When I faint with summer's heat,
Thou shalt guide my weary feet
To the streams that still and slow,
Through the verdant meadows flow.
3 Safe the dreary vale I trade,
By the shades of death o'erspread,
With thy rod and staff supplied,
This my guard and that my guide.
4 Constant to my latest end,
Thou my footsteps shall attend;
And shalt bid thy hallowed dome
Yield me an eternal home. Languages: English Tune Title: DIJON

And Christ invites us near;
With both, our friendship shall be sweet,
And our communion dear.
2 God pities all our griefs:
He pardons every day;
Almighty to protect our souls,
And wise to guide our way.
3 How large his bounties are!
What various stores of good,
Diffused from our Redeemer's hand,
And purchased with his blood.
4 Jesus, our living Head,
We bless thy faithful care;
Our Advocate before the throne,
And our Forerunner there.
5 Here fix, my roving heart!
Here wait, my warmest love!
Till the communion be complete,
In nobler scenes above. Languages: English Tune Title: SHIRLAND

Humility
Author: D. C. Colesworthy Hymnal: Laudes Domini #53 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: While we lowly bow before thee Lyrics: 1 While we lowly bow before thee,
Wilt thou, gracious Saviour, hear?
We are poor and needy sinners,
Full of doubt and full of fear;
Gracious Saviour,
Make us humble and sincere.
2 Fill us with thy Holy Spirit;
Sanctify us by thy grace;
Oh, incline us more to love thee,
And in dust our souls abase.
Hear us, Saviour,
And unvail thy glorious face.
3 None in vain did ever ask thee
For the Spirit of thy love;
Hear us, then, dear Saviour, hear us;
Grant an answer from above;
Blessed Saviour,
Hear and answer from above.

Holy One, in whom we all
Live, and move, and have our being,

Weak and wandering ones are we;
Then for ever, yes, for ever,
In thy presence would we be;
Oh, be near us,
That we wander not from thee. Languages: English Tune Title: ALVAN

"The blessed Trinity"
Author: C. Wordsworth Hymnal: Laudes Domini #63 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: Holy, holy, holy Lord Lyrics: 1 Holy, holy, holy Lord,
God of hosts, eternal King,
By the heavens and earth adored;
Angels and archangels sing,
Chanting everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity.
2 Thousands, tens of thousands, stand,
Spirits blest, before the throne,
Speeding thence at thy command,
And, when thy commands are done,
Singing everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity.
3 Cherubim and seraphim
Vail their faces with their wings;
Eyes of angels are too dim
To behold the King of kings,
While they sing eternally
To the blessed Trinity.
4 Thee apostles, prophets thee,
Thee the noble martyr band,
Praise with solemn jubilee,
Thee, the church in every land;
Singing everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity.
5 Hallelujah! Lord, to thee,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost;
Godhead one, and Persons three;
Join us with the heavenly host,
Singing everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity. Languages: English Tune Title: DIX

Nature's King
Author: Josiah Conder Hymnal: Laudes Domini #64 (1890) Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: O give thanks to Him who made Lyrics: 1 Oh, give thanks to him who made
Morning light and evening shade;
Source and giver of all good,
Nightly sleep and daily food;
Quickener of our wearied powers;
Guard of our unconscious hours.
2 Oh, give thanks to nature's King,
Who made every breathing thing:
His, our warm and sentient frame,
His, the mind's immortal flame.
Oh, how close the ties that bind
Spirits to the Eternal Mind!
3 Oh, give thanks with heart and lip,
For we are his workmanship;
And all creatures are his care:
Not a bird that cleaves the air
Falls unnoticed; but who can
Speak the Father's love to man?
4 Oh, give thanks to him who came
In a mortal, suffering frame
Temple of the Deity
Came, for rebel man to die;
In the path himself hath trod,
Leading back his saints to God. Languages: English
Nature's King
