Come, you faithful, raise the strain
Author: St. John of Damascus (c. 675-c. 750); John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #414 (2005) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 Come, you faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness;
God has brought his Israel
into joy from sadness;
loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters;
led them with unmoistened foot
through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls today;
Christ has burst his prison,
and from three days' sleep in death
as a sun has risen:
all the winter of our sins,
long and dark, is flying
from his light, to whom we give
laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons, bright
with the day of splendour,
with the royal feast of feasts
comes its joy to render;
comes to glad Christian hearts,
which, with true affection,
welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4 Neither could the gates of death,
nor the grave's dark portal,
nor the watchers, nor the seal,
hold you as a mortal.
Here today amid your own
now you stand, bestowing
your own peace, which evermore
passes human knowing. Topics: Christ Risen Resurrection and Exaltation; Christian Year Easter Scripture: Exodus 14:15-22 Languages: English Tune Title: AVE VIRGO VIRGINUM

The Spirit Came, As Promised
Author: James E. Seddon Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #418 (1987) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 First Line: The Spirit came as promised Lyrics: 1 The Spirit came, as promised,
in God's appointed hour;
and now to each believer
he comes in love and power.
And by his Holy Spirit,
God seals us as his own,
and through the Son and Spirit
makes access to his throne.
2 The Spirit makes our bodies
the temple of the Lord.
He binds us all together
in faith and true accord.
The Spirit in his greatness
brings power from God above,
and with the Son and Father
dwells in our hearts in love.
3 He bids us live together
in unity and peace;
employ his gifts in blessing,
and let base passions cease.
We should not grieve the Spirit
by open sin or shame,
nor let our words and actions
deny his holy name.
4 The word, the Spirit's weapon,
will bring all sin to light;
and prayer, by his directing,
will give new joy and might.
Be filled then with his Spirit,
live out God's will and word;
rejoice with hymns and singing,
make music to the Lord.

Author: Samuel J. Stone, 1839-1900 Hymnal: Breaking Bread (Vol. 39) #418 (2019) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 The Church's one foundation
Is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is his new creation
By water and the word:
From heav'n he came and sought her
To be his holy bride;
With his own blood he bought her,
And for her life he died.
2 Elect from ev'ry nation,
Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation,
"One Lord, one faith, one birth!"
One holy Name she blesses,
Partakes one holy food,
And to one hope she presses
With ev'ry grace endued.
3 'Mid toil and tribulation,
And tumult of her war
She waits the consummation
Of peace forevermore,
Till with the vision glorious
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest.
4 Yet she on earth hath union
With God, the Three-in-One,
And with the saints, communion
With those whose rest is won.
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we
Like them, the meek and lowly,
On high may dwell with thee. Topics: General Music for Worship Church Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

If God Himself Be For Me
Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-76; Richard Massie, 1800-87; Unknown Hymnal: Christian Worship (1993) #419 (1993) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 If God himself be for me,
I may a host defy;
For when I pray, before me
My foes, confounded, fly.
If Christ, my head and master,
Befriend me from above,
What foe or what disaster
Can drive me from his love?
2 This I believe, yea rather,
Of this I make my boast,
That God is my dear Father,
My friend who loves me most,
And that, whate'er betide me,
My Savior is at hand
Through stormy seas to guide me
And bring me safe to land.
3 I build on this foundation:
That Jesus and his blood
Alone are my salvation,
My true, eternal good.
Without him all that pleases
Is valueless on earth;
The gifts I have from Jesus
Alone have priceless worth.
4 He canceled my offenses,
Delivered me from death;
He is the Lord who cleanses
My soul from sin through faith.
In him I can be cheerful,
Courageous on my way;
In him I am not fearful
Of God's great Judgment Day.
5 No sin can now condemn me
Or set my hope aside.
Now hell no more can claim me;
Its fury I deride.
No sentence now reproves me;
No guilt destroys my peace,
For Christ, my Savior, loves me
And shields me with his grace.
6 No danger, thirst, or hunger,
No pain or poverty,
No earthly tyrant's anger
Shall ever vanquish me.
Though earth should break asunder,
You are my Savior true;
No fire or sword or thunder
Shall sever me from you.
7 My heart for joy is springing
And can no more be sad,
'Tis full of joy and singing,
Sees only sunshine glad.
The sun that cheers my spirit
Is Jesus Christ, my King;
The heav'n I shall inherit
Makes me rejoice and sing. Topics: Trust; Trust Languages: English Tune Title: VALET WILL ICH DIR GEBEN
