Before Jehovah’s awful throne
Author: I. Watts (1674-1748); J. Wesley (1703-1791) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #15 (1987) Topics: Epiphany 2, Revelation The First Disciples Lyrics: 1 Before Jehovah's awful throne,
you nations, bow with sacred joy;
know that the Lord is God alone —
he can create, and he destroy.
2 His sovereign power, without our aid,
formed us and fashioned us of old;
and when like wandering sheep we strayed,
he brought us back into his fold.
3 We'll crowd your gates with thankful songs,
high as the heavens our voices raise;
and earth with her ten thousand tongue
shall fill your courts with sounding praise.
4 Wide as the world is your command,
vast as eternity your love;
firm as a rock your truth must stand,
when rolling years shall cease to move. Scripture: Psalm 100 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 100th

we are his, for he has made us;
we are sheep within his fold.
3 Come with grateful hearts before him,
enter now his courts with praise;
show your thankfulness towards him,
give due honour to his name.
4 For the Lord our God is gracious —
everlasting in his love,
and to every generation
his great faithfulness endures. Scripture: Psalm 100 Languages: English Tune Title: COME REJOICE

'Take up your cross,' the Saviour said
Author: C. W. Everest (1814-1877) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #114 (1987) Topics: Epiphany 2, Revelation The First Disciples Lyrics: 1 'Take up your cross,' the Saviour said,
'if you would my disciple be;
deny yourself, forsake the world,
and humbly follow after me.'
2 Take up your cross — let not its weight
fill your weak soul with vain alarm;
his strength shall bear your spirit up,
and brace your heart, and nerve your arm.
3 Take up your cross, nor heed the shame,
nor let your foolish pride rebel;
the Lord for you the cross endured
to save your soul from death and hell.
4 Take up your cross, then, in his strength,
and calmly every danger brave;
he guides us to a better home,
and leads to conquest of the grave.
5 Take up your cross and follow Christ,
nor think till death to lay it down;
for only they who bear the cross
may hope to win the glorious crown. Scripture: Mark 8:34 Languages: English Tune Title: BRESLAU
'Take up your cross,' the Saviour said
Eternal Ruler, of the ceaseless round

of circling planets singing on their way;
guide of the nations from the night profound
into the glory of the perfect day;
rule in our hearts, that we may ever be
guided and strengthened and upheld by thee.
2 We are of thee, the children of thy love,
by virtue of thy well-belovèd Son;
descend, O Holy Spirit, like a dove,
into our hearts, that we may be as one:
as one with thee, to whom we ever tend;
as one with him, our Brother and our Friend.
3 We would be one in hatred of all wrong,
one in our love of all things sweet and fair,
one with the joy that breaketh into song,
one with the grief that trembles into prayer,
one in the pow'r that makes thy children free
to follow truth, and thus to follow thee.
4 O clothe us with thy heav'nly armour, Lord,
thy trusty shield, thy sword of love divine;
our inspiration be thy constant word;
we ask no victories that are not thine:
give or withhold, let pain or pleasure be;
enough to know that we are serving thee. Scripture: Ephesians 1:5 Languages: English Tune Title: SONG 1

Now, my tongue, the mystery telling
Author: St Thomas Aquinas, 1227-1274; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866; Edward Caswall 1814-1878 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #473a (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Year B Epiphany 2 Lyrics: 1 Now, my tongue, the myst'ry telling
of the glorious body sing,
and the blood, all price excelling,
which the Gentiles' Lord and King,
in a virgin's womb once dwelling,
shed for this world's ransoming.
2 Giv'n for us, for us descending
of a virgin to proceed,
he, with us in converse blending,
scattered here the gospel seed,
till his sojourn drew to ending,
which he closed with wondrous deed.
3 At the last great supper lying,
circled by his chosen hand,
meekly with the law complying,
first he finished its command.
Then, immortal food supplying,
gave himself with his own hand.
4 Word made flesh, by word he maketh
very bread his flesh to be;
we in wine, Christ's blood partaketh,
and if senses fail to see,
faith alone the true heart taketh,
to behold the mystery.
5 Therefore we, before him bending,
this great sacrament revere:
types and shadows have their ending,
for the newer rite is here;
faith, our outward sense befriending,
makes our inward vision clear.
6 Glory let us give and blessing
to the Father and the Son,
honour, might and praise addressing,
while eternal ages run;
ever too his love confessing,
who, from both, with both is One. Amen. Scripture: 1 Peter 1:19 Languages: English Tune Title: PANGE LINGUA
