O Word of God Incarnate
Author: William Walsham How Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #267 (1961) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Holy Scriptures Lyrics: 1 O Word of God Incarnate,
O Wisdom from on high,
O Truth unchanged, unchanging,
O Light of our dark sky;
We praise thee for the radiance
That from the hallowed page,
A lantern to our footsteps
Shines on from age to age.
2 The church from her dear Master
Received the gift divine,
And still that light she lifteth
O'er all the earth to shine.
It is the golden casket,
Where gems of truth are stored;
It is the heav'n-drawn picture
Of Christ, the living Word.
3 It floateth like a banner
Before God's host unfurled;
It shineth like a beacon
Above the darkling world.
It is the chart and compass
That o'er life's surging sea,
'Mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
Still guides, O Christ, to thee.
4 O make thy church, dear Saviour,
A lamp of purest gold,
To bear before the nations
Thy true light, as of old.
O teach thy wand'ring pilgrims
By this their path to trace,
Till, clouds and darkness ended,
They see thee face to face.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 119:130 Languages: English Tune Title: MUNICH
O Word of God Incarnate
Glorious things of thee are spoken
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #269 (1961) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Holy Scriptures Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
He whose word cannot be broken
Formed thee for his own abode:
On the Rock of Ages founded,
What can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
Thou may'st smile at all thy foes.
2 See, the streams of living waters,
Springing from eternal love,
Well supply thy sons and daughters,
And all fear of want remove:
Who can faint, while such a river
Ever flows their thirst t'assuage?
Grace which, like the Lord, the giver,
Never fails from age to age.
3 Round each habitation hov'ring,
See the cloud and fire appear
For a glory and a cov'ring,
Showing that the Lord is near:
Thus deriving from their banner
Light by night and shade by day,
Safe they feed upon the manna
Which he gives them when they pray.
4 Saviour, if of Zion's city
I, through grace, a member am,
Let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in thy Name:
Fading is the worldling's pleasure,
All his boasted pomp and show;
Solid joys and lasting treasure
None but Zion's children know.
Amen. Scripture: Exodus 13:21 Languages: English Tune Title: AUSTRIAN HYMN
Glorious things of thee are spoken
How sweet and awful is the place
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #271 (1961) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Holy Scriptures Lyrics: 1 How sweet and awful is the place
With Christ within the doors,
While everlasting love displays
The choicest of her stores.
2 While all our hearts and all our songs
Join to admire the feast,
Each of us cry, with thankful tongues,
"Lord, why was I a guest?
3 "Why was I made to hear thy voice,
And enter while there's room,
When thousands make a wretched choice,
And rather starve than come?"
4 'Twas the same love that spread the feast
That sweetly drew us in;
Else we had still refused to taste,
And perished in our sin.
5 Pity the nations, O our God,
Constrain the earth to come;
Send thy victorious Word abroad,
And bring the strangers home.
6 We long to see thy churches full,
That all the chosen race
May, with one voice and heart and soul,
Sing thy redeeming grace.
Amen. Scripture: Luke 14:14-24 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. COLUMBA
How sweet and awful is the place
Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning!
Author: Thomas Hastings Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #274 (1961) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Topics: Holy Scriptures Lyrics: 1 Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning!
Joy to the lands that in darkness have lain!
Hushed be the accents of sorrow and mourning;
Zion in triumph begins her mild reign.
2 Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning!
Long by the prophets of Israel foretold!
Hail to the millions from bondage returning!
Gentiles and Jews the blest vision behold.
3 Lo, in the desert rich flowers are springing,
Streams ever copious are gliding along;
Loud from the mountain tops echoes are ringing,
Wastes rise in verdure, and mingle in song.
4 See, from all lands, from the isles of the ocean,
Praise to Jehovah ascending on high;
Fall'n are the engines of war and commotion,
Shouts of salvation are rending the sky.
Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 35:1-2 Languages: English Tune Title: WESLEY
Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning!

O word of God incarnate
Break Thou the bread of life
Author: Mary A. Lathbury Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #309 (1899) Topics: Holy Scriptures Lyrics: 1 Break Thou the bread of life,
Dear Lord, to me,
As Thou didst break the loaves
Beside the sea;
Beyond the sacred page
I seek Thee, Lord;
My spirit pants for Thee,
O living Word!
2 Bless Thou the truth, dear Lord,
To me--to me--
As Thou didst bless the bread
By Galilee;
Then shall all bondage cease,
All fetters fall;
And I shall find my peace,
My All-in-All!

A glory gilds the sacred page
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #310 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Holy Scriptures Lyrics: 1 A glory gilds the sacred page,
Majestic like the sun:
It gives a light to every age,
It gives, but borrows none.
2 The hand that gave it still supplies
The gracious light and heat;
His truths upon the nations rise,
They rise, but never set.
3 Let everlasting thanks be Thine,
For such a bright display,
As makes a world of darkness shine
With beams of heavenly day.
4 My soul rejoices to pursue
The steps of Him I love,
Till glory break upon my view
In brighter worlds above.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: BOARDMAN

In vain would boasting reason find
Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #311 (1899) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Holy Scriptures Lyrics: 1 In vain would boating reason find
The path to happiness and God;
Her weak directions leave the mind
Bewildered in a doubtful road.
2 Jesus, Thy words alone impart
Eternal life; on these I live;
Diviner comforts cheer my heart
Than all the powers of nature give.
3 Here let my constant feet abide;
Thou art the true, the living Way:
Let Thy good Spirit be my guide
To the bright realms of endless day.
4 The various forms that men devise
To shake my faith with treacherous art,
I scorn as vanity and lies,
And bind Thy gospel to my heart.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HARMONY GROVE
In vain would boasting reason find

A lamp of burnished gold,
To bear before the nations
Thy true light as of old;
Oh, teach Thy wandering pilgrims
By this their path to trace,
Till, clouds and darkness ended,
They see Thee face to face.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: CHENIES
