Creator of the starry height

Author: John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 93 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Creator of the starry height, thy people's everlasting light, Jesu, redeemer of us all, hear thou thy servants when they call. 2 Thou, sorrowing at the helpless cry of all creation doomed to die, didst come to save our fallen race by healing gifts of heavenly grace. 3 When earth was near its evening hour, thou didst, in love's redeeming power, like bridegroom from his chamber, come forth from a virgin-mother's womb. 4 At thy great name, exalted now, all knees in lowly homage bow; all things in heaven and earth adore, and own thee King for evermore. 5 To thee, O Holy One, we pray, our judge in that tremendous day, ward off, while yet we dwell below, the weapons of our crafty foe. 6 To God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit, Three in One, praise, honour, might, and glory be from age to age eternally. Amen. Topics: Advent; Redemption and Salvation; Year A Proper 21; Year A Proper 22 Scripture: Philippians 2:5-11 Used With Tune: CONDITOR AME SIDERUM Text Sources: 7th century

Gott heilger Schöpfe aller Stern

Author: Thomas Müntzer Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Gott, heilger Schöpfer aller Stern Lyrics: 1 Gott, heilger Schöpfer aller Stern, erleucht uns, die wir sind so fern, daß wir erkennen Jesus Christ, der für uns Mensch geworden ist. 2 Denn es ging dir zu Herzen sehr, da wir gefangen waren schwer und sollten gar des Todes sein; drum nahm er auf sich Schuld und Pein. 3 Da sich die Welt zum Abend wandt, der Bräut’gam Christus ward gesandt. Aus seiner Mutter Kämmerlein ging er hervor als klarer Schein. 4 Gezeigt hat er sein groß Gewalt, daß es in aller Welt erschallt, sich beugen müssen alle Knie im Himmel und auf Erden hie. 5 Wir bitten dich, o heilger Christ, der du zukünftig Richter bist, lehr uns zuvor dein’ Willen tun und an dem Glauben nehmen zu. 6 Lob, Preis sei, Vater, deiner Kraft und deinem Sohn, der all Ding schafft, dem heilgen Tröster auch zugleich so hier wie dort im Himmelreich. Amen. Topics: Das Kirchenjahr Advent Used With Tune: [Gott, heilger Schöpfer aller Stern] Text Sources: 10. Jh. bei Johann Leisentrit 1567
