O Child of lowly manger birth
As Birds Their Infant Brood Protect
Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1. As birds their infant brood protect,
And spread their wings to shelter them,
Thus saith the Lord to His elect,
So will I guard Jerusalem.
2. And what then is Jerusalem,
This darling object of His cares?
Where is its worth in God’s esteem?
Who built it? Who inhabits there?
3. Jehovah founded it in blood,
The blood of His incarnate Son;
There dwell the saints, once foes to God
The sinners whom He calls His own.
4. There, though besieged on every side,
Yet much beloved and guarded well,
From age to age they have defied
The utmost force of earth and hell.
5. Let earth repent, and hell despair,
This city has a sure defense;
Her name is called, The Lord is there,
And who has power to drive Him hence? Used With Tune: MAINZER Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779)
As Birds Their Infant Brood Protect
Now Let Us Join with Hearts and Tongues
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Now let us join with hearts and tongues,
And emulate the angels’ songs;
Yea, sinners may address their King
In songs that angels cannot sing.
2. They praise the Lamb who once was slain,
But we can add a higher strain;
Not only say, He suffered thus,
But that He suffered all for us.
3. When angels by transgression fell,
Justice consigned them all to hell;
But mercy formed a wondrous plan,
To save and honor fallen man.
4. Jesus, who passed the angels by,
Assumed our flesh to bleed and die;
And still He makes it His abode,
As man, He fills the throne of God.
5. Our next of kin, our brother now,
Is He to whom the angels bow;
They join with us to praise His name,
But we the nearest interest claim.
6. But ah! how faint our praises rise!
Sure, ’tis the wonder of the skies;
That we, who share His richest love,
So cold and unconcerned should prove.
7. O glorious hour, it comes with speed
When we from sin and darkness freed,
Shall see the God who died for man,
And praise Him more than angels can. Used With Tune: MAINZER Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779), number 39

Under His Wings Shalt Thou Trust
They come, God's messengers of love
Author: Robert Campbell Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 26 hymnals Lyrics: 1 They come, God’s messengers of love,
They come from realms of peace above,
From homes of never-fading light,
From blissful mansions ever bright.
2 They come to watch around us here,
To soothe our sorrow, calm our fear:
But chiefly, at our journey's end,
'Tis theirs the spirit to defend.
3 Blest Jesus, Thou Whose groans and tears
Have sanctified frail nature’s fears,
To earth in bitter sorrow weighed,
Thou didst not scorn Thine angel’s aid.
4 An angel guard to us supply,
When on the bed of death we lie;
And by Thine own almighty power,
O shield us in that final hour.
Amen. Topics: The Church The Church Triumphant: St. Michael and all angels Used With Tune: MAINZER
They come, God's messengers of love
God Only Wise, and Great, and Strong
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1. God only wise, and great, and strong,
Hath made the orbs to run their race:
Knowledge and might to God belong,
Honor, and majesty, and praise.
2. Jehovah is unchangeable,
His ways and thoughts are not as ours;
He cheers the languid souls that fail;
And quickens all their drooping powers.
3. Gently He lifts the fallen up,
He gives them faith, and faith’s increase,
Revives their feeble, dying hope,
And fills with love, and joy and peace.
4. Blasted, the vigor of the young
Shall fade, and suddenly decay;
The bold, and confident and strong,
Shall fear, despair, and die away.
5. But they who wait upon the Lord
Shall surely find His promise true,
Receive the quickening powerful Word,
And, born of God, their strength renew.
6. Their willing souls, from sin set free,
Shall swiftly in His statues move,
Shall walk in glorious liberty
Shall fly upon the wings of love. Used With Tune: MAINZER Text Sources: Hymns for Use of Families, 1767
