All Is O'er, the Pain, the Sorrow

Author: Gerard Moultrie, 1829-85 Hymnal: Worship Supplement #731 (1969) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 All is o'er, the pain, the sorrow, Human taunts and Satan's spite; Death shall be despoiled tomorrow Of the Prey he grasps tonight. Yet once more, his own to save, Christ must sleep within the grave. 2 Fierce and deadly was the anguish On the bitter cross he bore; How did soul and body languish Till the toil of death was o'er! But that toil, so fierce and dread, Bruised and crushed the Serpent's head. 3 Close and still the tomb that holds him While in brief repose he lies; Deep the slumber that enfolds him, Veiled awhile from mortal eyes-- Slumber such as needs must be After hard-won victory. 4 So this night, with voice of sadness Chant the anthem soft and low; Loftier strains of praise and gladness From tomorrow's harps shall flow: Death and Hell at length are slain, Christ has triumphed! Christ doth reign! Topics: The Christian Year Holy Saturday Tune Title: PSALM 146

Long Before the World Is Waking

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: Worship Supplement 2000 #735 (2007) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Long before the world is waking, Morning mist on Galilee, From the shore, as dawn is breaking, Jesus calls across the sea; Hails the boat of weary men, Bids them cast their net again. 2 So they cast, and all their heaving Cannot haul their catch aboard; John in wonder turns, perceiving, Cries aloud, "It is the Lord!" Peter waits for nothing more, Plunges in to swim ashore. 3 Charcoal embers brightly burning, Bread and fish upon them laid: Jesus stands at day's returning In His risen life arrayed; As of old His friends to greet, "Here is breakfast; come and eat." 4 Christ is risen! Grief and sighing, Sins and sorrows, fall behind; Fear and failure, doubt, denying, Full and free forgiveness find. All the soul's dark night is past, Morning breaks in joy at last. 5 Morning breaks, and Jesus meets us, Feeds and comforts, pardons still; As His faithful friends He greets us, Partners of His work and will. All our days, on ev'ry shore, Christ is ours for evermore! Topics: Easter Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS (ZEUCH MICH)

Who are these like stars appearing

Author: Heinrich Theobald Schenck, 1656-1727; Frances Elizabeth Cox, 1812-1897 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #746 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Who are these like stars appearing, these before God's throne who stand? Each a golden crown is wearing; who are all this glorious band? Alleluia, hark, they sing, praising loud their heav'nly King. 2 Who are these of dazzling brightness, clothed in God's own righteousness, these, whose robes of purest whiteness shall their lustre still possess, still untouched by time's rude hand - whence came all this glorious band? 3 These are they who have contended for their Saviour's honour long, wrestling on till life was ended, following not the sinful throng; these, who well the fight sustained, triumph through the Lamb have gained. 4 These are they whose hearts were riven, sore with woe and anguish tried, who in prayer full oft have striven with the God they glorified; now, their painful conflict o'er, God has bid them weep no more. 5 These, th'Almighty contemplating, did as priest before him stand, soul and body, always waiting day and night at his command: now, in God's most holy place blest they stand before his face.

Lord, Who Left the Highest Heaven

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: Christian Worship #771 (2021) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Lord, who left the highest heaven for a homeless human birth and, a child within a stable, came to share the life of earth, with your grace and mercy bless all who suffer homelessness. 2 Lord, who sought by cloak of darkness refuge under foreign skies from the swords of Herod's soldiers, ravaged homes and parents' cries, may your grace and mercy rest on the homeless and oppressed. 3 Lord, who lived secure and settled, safe within the Father's plan, and in wisdom, stature, favor growing up from boy to man, with your grace and mercy bless all who strive for holiness. 4 Lord, who leaving home and kindred, followed still as duty led, sky the roof and earth the pillow for the Prince of glory's head, with your grace and mercy bless sacrifice for righteousness. 5 Lord, who in your cross and passion hung beneath a darkened sky, yet whose thoughts were for your mother, and a thief condemned to die, may your grace and mercy rest on the helpless and distressed. 6 Lord, who rose to life triumphant with our whole salvation won, risen, glorified, ascended, all the Father's purpose done, may your grace, all conflict past, bring your children home at last.

Christ, in Highest Heaven Enthronèd

Author: Jean de Santëuil; William Palmer Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #804 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 First Line: Christ, in highest Heav'n enthronèd Lyrics: 1. Christ, in highest Heav’n enthronèd, Equal of the Father’s might, By pure spirits, trembling, ownèd, God of God, and Light of Light, Thee ’mid angel hosts we sing, Thee their Maker and their King. 2. All who circling round adore Thee, All who bow before Thy throne, Burn with flaming zeal before Thee, Thy behests to carry down; To and fro, ’twixt earth and Heav’n, Speed they each on errands given. 3. First of all those legions glorious, Michael waves his sword of flame, Who of old in war victorious Did the Dragon’s fierceness tame; Who with might invincible Thrust the rebel down to hell. 4. Strong to aid the sick and dying, Called from Heav’n they swiftly fly, Grace divine and strength supplying In their mortal agony: Souls released from bondage here Safe to Paradise they bear. 5. To the Father praise be given By the unfallen angel host, Who in His great war have striven With the legions of the lost; Equal praise in highest Heav’n To the Son and Holy Ghost.
