The God Whom Earth, and Sea, and Sky

Author: Venantius Fortunatus, 530-609; John M. Neale Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2074 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. The God whom earth, and sea, and sky, Adore, and laud, and magnify, Who o’er their threefold fabric reigns, The virgin’s spotless womb contains. 2. The God whose will by moon and sun And all things in due course is done, Is borne upon a maiden’s breast, By fullest heavenly grace possessed. 3. How blest the mother, in whose shrine The great Artificer Divine, Whose hand contains the earth and sky, Vouchsafed, as in His ark, to lie! 4. Blest, in the message Gabriel brought; Blest, by the work the Spirit wrought: From whom the Great Desire of earth Took human flesh and human birth. 5. All honor, laud, and glory be, O Jesu, virgin-born, to Thee! All glory, as is ever meet, To Father and to Paraclete. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. AMBROSE

The Praises of That Saint We Sing

Author: Silvio Antoniano; J. Athelstan Riley, 1858-1945 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5636 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. The praises of that saint we sing, To whom all lands their tribute bring, Who with indomitable heart, Bore throughout life true woman’s heart. 2. Restraining every froward sense By gentle bonds of abstinence, With prayer her hungry souls she fed, And thus to heavenly joys hath sped. 3. King Christ, from whom all virtue springs, Who only doest wondrous things, As now to Thee she kneels in prayer, In mercy our petitions hear. 4. All praise to God the Father be, All praise, eternal Son, to Thee; Whom with the Spirit we adore Forever and forevermore. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. AMBROSE

Receive, O Lord, in Heaven Above

Author: Ephraim of Edessa, 303-373; Francis C. Burkitt Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5838 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Receive, O Lord, in Heaven above Our prayers and supplications pure; Give us a heart all full of love And steady courage to endure. 2. Thy holy name our mouths confess, Our tongues are harps to praise Thy grace; Forgive our sins and wickedness, Who in this vigil seek Thy face. 3. Let not our song become a sigh, A wail of anguish and despair; In lovingkindness, Lord most high, Receive tonight our evening prayer. 4. O raise us in that day, that we May sing, where all Thy saints adore, Praise to Thy Father, and to Thee, And to Thy Spirit, evermore. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. AMBROSE
