Lo! He comes with clouds descending
Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 792 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lo! He comes with clouds descending,
Once for favoured sinners slain;
Thousand thousand saints attending
Swell the triumph of His train:
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Amen.
2 Every eye shall now behold Him,
Robed in dreadful majesty;
Those who set at nought and sold Him,
Pierced, and nailed Him to the tree,
Deeply wailing,
Shall the true Messiah see.
3 Now redemption, long expected,
See in solemn pomp appear;
All His saints, by man rejected,
Now shall meet Him in the air:
Hallelujah!
See the day of God appear!
4 Yea, Amen! let all adore Thee,
High on Thine eternal throne;
Saviour, take the power and glory,
Claim the kingdom for Thine own:
O come quickly;
Hallelujah! come, Lord, come!

Sing, My Tongue, the Glorious Battle
Author: Venantius Fortunatus (540?-600?); Percy Dearmer (1867-1936) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle,
sing the ending of the fray;
now above the cross, the trophy,
sound the loud triumphant lay:
tell how Christ, the world's redeemer,
as a victim won the day.
2 Tell how, when at length the fullness
of the appointed time was come,
Christ, the word, was born of woman,
left for us his heavenly home;
showed us human life made perfect,
shone as light amid the gloom.
3 Thus, with thirty years accomplished,
went he forth from Nazareth,
destined, dedicated, willing,
wrought his work and met his death.
Like a lamb he humbly yielded
on the cross his dying breath.
4 Faithful cross, thou sign of triumph,
now for us the noblest tree,
none in foliage, none in blossom,
none in fruit thy peer may be;
symbol of the world's redemption,
for the weight that hung on thee!
5 Unto God be praise and glory:
to the Father and the Son,
to the eternal spirit honour
now and evermore be done;
praise and glory in the highest,
while the timeless ages run. Topics: Holy Week (Good Friday) Scripture: Isaiah 52:13-15; 53 Used With Tune: ORIEL

Thou who sentest thine apostles
Come Thou now, and be among us
Appears in 13 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come Thou now, and be among us,
Lord and Maker, while we pray:
Let Thy presence fill the temple
Which we dedicate to-day;
And, Thyself its consecrator,
Dwell within its walls alway.
2 Grant that all Thy faithful people
May Thy truer temple be;
Neither flesh, nor soul, nor spirit,
Know another Lord than Thee;
But, to Thee once dedicated,
Serve Thee everlastingly.
3 Bright be here Jehovah's altar
With the presents that we bring,
Held in holy veneration,
Rich with many an offering;
Ever hallowed, ever quiet,
Ever dear to God, its king.
4 Here our souls, as Thy true altars,
Deign to hallow and to bless,
O Thou future Judge of all men,
With Thy grace and holiness;
That Thy gifts sent down from heaven,
We may evermore possess. Topics: The Church Church Buildings; The Church Church Buildings Used With Tune: [Come Thou now, and be among us] Text Sources: Latin, 6th or 7th Century

In the Name of Christ We Gather
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (1931-) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In the name of Christ we gather,
in the name of Christ we sing,
celebrate new vows, new promise
of a life's whole offering,
here ordained to lead God's people
at the Gospel's beckoning.
2 Sons and daughters of the Spirit --
these are called to teach and care,
called as were the first disciples,
commonwealth of Christ to share,
by the bread and wine and water
sacraments of grace declare.
3 In the ministry of preaching
may the word spring into life;
in our time of doubt and challenge,
may its truth affirm belief;
in the day of pain and darkness,
heal the hurt of guilt and grief.
4 Now within this solemn moment
we invoke the power of God --
by the hands laid on in blessing
be there strength to take the load,
be there faithfulness in loving,
be there courage for this road.
5 Word of joy, enlivening Spirit,
more than lover, parent, friend,
born in Jesus, born in Mary,
born in us, that love extend,
grow within your chosen servant,
life of God that has no end! Topics: Ordinations Used With Tune: ORIEL
