Beautiful Savior! King of Creation
Author: Joseph Seiss Hymnal: Concordia #67 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Christmas First Line: Beautiful Savior! King of creation! Lyrics: 1 Beautiful Savior!
King of creation!
Son of God and Son of Man!
Truly I'd love Thee,
Truly I'd serve Thee,
Light of my soul, my joy, my crown!
2 Fair are the meadows,
Fairer the woodlands,
Robed in flowers of blooming spring;
Jesus is fairer;
Jesus is purer;
He makes our sorrowing spirit sing.
3 Fair is the sunshine,
Fairer the moonlight
And the sparkling stars on high;
Jesus shines brighter,
Jesus shines purer,
Than all the angels in the sky.
4 Beautiful Savior!
Lord of the nations!
Son of God and Son of Man!
Glory and honor,
Praise, adoration,
Now and forevermore be Thine! Languages: English Tune Title: DEILIG ER JORDEN
Beautiful Savior! King of Creation
Brightest and Best
Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: Concordia #68 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Christmas First Line: Brightest and best of the sons of the morning Lyrics: 1 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid;
Star of the east, the horizon adorning,
Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.
2 Cold on His cradle the dew-drops are shining,
Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall;
Angels adore Him in slumber reclining,
Maker and Monarch and Savior of all.
3 Shall we not yield Him, in costly devotion,
Odors of Edom, and off'rings divine,
Gems of the mountain, and pearls of the ocean,
Myrrh from the forest, and gold from the mine?
4 Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
Vainly with gifts would His favor secure;
Richer by far is the heart's adoration,
Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.
5 Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
Dawn on our darkness and lend us thine aid;
Star of the east, the horizon adorning,
Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid. Languages: English Tune Title: EASTWELL

Holy Night! Peaceful Night
Author: J. Mohr Hymnal: Concordia #69 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Christmas First Line: Holy night! peaceful night! Lyrics: 1 Holy night! peaceful night!
Through the darkness beams a light,
Yonder, where they sweet vigils keep
O'er the Babe who, in silent sleep,
Rests in heavenly peace,
Rests in heavenly peace.
2 Silent night! holiest night!
Darkness flies, and all is light!
Shepherds hear the angels sing:
"Hallelujah! hail the King!
Jesus the Savior is here!
Jesus the Savior is here!"
3 Silent night! holiest night!
Guiding Star, O lend thy light!
See the eastern wise men bring
Gifts and homage to our King!
Jesus the Savior is here!
Jesus the Savior is here!
4 Silent night! holiest night!
Wondrous Star, O lend thy light!
With the angels let us sing
Hallelujah to our King!
Jesus our Savior is here!
Jesus our Savior is here! Languages: English Tune Title: GLADE JUL

Thy little Ones, dear Lord, are We
Author: Mrs. Harriet R. Spaeth; H. A. Brorson Hymnal: Concordia #70 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Christmas Lyrics: 1 Thy little ones, dear Lord, are we,
And come Thy lowly bed to see;

And kiss the dust before Thy feet,

With all Thy saints, Thy glorious name;

And praise Thee as the angels do. Languages: English Tune Title: HER KOMMER DINE
Thy little Ones, dear Lord, are We
Angels, from the Realms of Glory
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Concordia #71 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Christmas Lyrics: 1 Angels, from the realms of glory,
Wing your flight o'er all the earth;
Ye who sang creation's story,
Now proclaim Messiah's birth;

Watching o'er your flocks by night,
God with man is now residing;
Yonder shines the Infant Light;

Worship Christ, the new-born King.
3 Saints, before the altar bending,
Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In His temple shall appear;
Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King. Languages: English Tune Title: REGENT SQUARE

A few More Years shall Roll
Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Concordia #72 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals New Year Lyrics: 1 A few more years shall roll,
A few more seasons come,
And we shall be with those that rest,
Asleep within the tomb.
A few more suns shall set
O'er these dark hills of time,
And we shall be where suns are not,
A far serener clime.
2 A few more storms shall beat
On this wild, rocky shore,
And we shall be where tempests cease,
And surges swell no more.
A few more struggles here,
A few more partings o'er,
A few more toils, a few more tears,
And we shall weep no more.
3 'Tis but a little while,
And He shall come again,
Who died that we might live, who lives
That we with Him may reign;
Then, O my Lord, prepare
My soul for that glad day;
O wash me in Thy precious blood,
And take my sins away! Languages: English Tune Title: LEOMINSTER

Standing at the Portal
Author: Frances R. Havergal Hymnal: Concordia #73 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals New Year Refrain First Line: Onward then, and fear not, children of the day Lyrics: 1 Standing at the portal
Of the opening year,
Words of comfort meet us,
Hushing ev'ry fear;
Spoken thro' the silence
By our Father's voice,
Tender, strong, and faithful,
Making us rejoice.
Chorus:
Onward, then, and fear not,
Children of the day!
For His word shall never,
Never pass away.
2 "I, the Lord, am with thee,
Be thou not afraid;
I will keep and strengthen,
Be thou not dismayed.
Yea, I will uphold thee
With My own right hand;
Thou art called and chosen
In My sight to stand." [Chorus]
3 For the year before us,
Oh, what rich supplies!
For the poor and needy
Living streams shall rise;
For the sad and sinful
Shall His grace abound;
For the faint and feeble
Perfect strength be found. [Chorus]
4 He will never fail us,
He will not forsake;
His eternal cov'nant
He will never break!
Resting on His promise,
What have we to fear?
God is all-sufficient
For the coming year. [Chorus]

Father, Let me Dedicate
Author: L. Tuttiett,1825-97 Hymnal: Concordia #74 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals New Year Lyrics: 1 Father, let me dedicate
All this year to Thee,
In whatever worldly state
Thou wilt have me be.
Not from sorrow, pain, or care,
Freedom dare I claim;
This alone shall be my prayer:
Glorify Thy name.
2 Can a child presume to choose
Where or how to live?
Can a Father’s love refuse
All the best to give?
More Thou givest ev'ry day
Than the best can claim;
Nor withholdest aught that may
Glorify Thy name.
3 If in mercy Thou wilt spare
Joys that yet are mine;
If on life, serene and fair,
Brighter rays may shine,
Let my glad heart, while it sings,
Thee in all proclaim;
And whate’er the future brings,
Glorify Thy name.
4 If Thou callest to the cross,
And its shadow come,
Turning all my gain to loss,
Shrouding heart and home:
Let me think how Thy dear Son
To His glory came,
And in deepest woe pray on,
"Glorify Thy name." Languages: English Tune Title: DEDICATIO ANNI
Father, Let me Dedicate
O Sacred Head, now Wounded
Author: Paul Gerhardt; J. W. Alexander; Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091-1153 Hymnal: Concordia #75 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 O sacred Head, now wounded,
With grief and shame weighed down,
Now scornfully surrounded
With thorns, Thine only crown;
O sacred Head, what glory,
What bliss, till now was Thine!
Yet, though despised and gory,
I joy to call Thee mine.
2 What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered
Was all for sinner's gain;
Mine, mine was the transgression,
But Thine the deadly pain.
Lo, here I fall, my Savior!
’Tis I deserve Thy place;
Look on me with Thy favor,
Vouchsafe to me Thy grace.
3 What language shall I borrow
To thank Thee, dearest Friend,
For this, Thy dying sorrow,
Thy pity without end?
O make me Thine forever;
And should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
Outlive my love to Thee.
4 Be near when I am dying,
O show Thy cross to me;
And for my succor flying,
Come, Lord, and set me free.
These eyes, new faith receiving,
From Jesus shall not move,
For He who dies believing,
Dies safely through Thy love. Languages: English Tune Title: MIG HJERTELIG NU LÆNGES
O Sacred Head, now Wounded
Alas! and Did my Savior Bleed?
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Concordia #76 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter First Line: Alas! and did my Savior bleed Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Savior bleed,
And did my Sov'reign die,
Would He devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I?
2 Was it for crimes that I had done
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity, grace unknown,
And love beyond degree.
3 Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut His glories in,
When God, the mighty Maker, died
For man, the creature's sin.
4 Thus might I hide my blushing face
While His dear cross appears,
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
And melt my eyes to tears.
5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay
The debt of love I owe;
Here, Lord, I give myself away,
'Tis all that I can do. Languages: English Tune Title: MARTYRDOM
Alas! and Did my Savior Bleed?
