Prayer For Rain
Author: Hannah J. Lewis, 1816-1885 Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Rain, rain! the meadow lands are all athirst Lyrics: 1 Rain, rain! the meadow lands are all athirst;
The leaves grow crisp upon the forest trees;
The flowers that spring’s abundant moisture nursed
Yield no more fragrance to the passing breeze—
They have all bowed their heads like things accursed
And when shall fresher ones succeed to these?
2 Along the bed of the once rushing brook
We seek in vain to trace its sparkling tide;
And far away in some old shady nook,
Where late its crystal drops it loved to hide.
The clustering branches bend, and vainly look
For the lost jewels, once the woodland pride!
3 Clouds rise and float across the azure main,
The thunder sends its greeting o’er the hills,
But the soft falling and refreshing rain
No more the parching earth with gladness fills;
And the sere upland, with the barren plain
Unheeded supplicate the vanished rills.
4 God of the storm and the reviving shower,
Look Thou in mercy on our sorest need!
Let not the harvest fail, since Thine the power
To fill the reaper’s hand with priceless meed:
We look to Thee in this o’ershadowed hour,
For blessings which alone from Thee proceed! Used With Tune: YORKSHIRE Text Sources: The Poetical Works of Mrs. H. J. Lewis (Boston: Cupples, Upham, 1885)

To Christ the Monarch
Author: William Dix; Richard W. Adams Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: To Christ the Monarch, be our praise today Lyrics: 1 To Christ the Monarch, be our praise today,
Unto the Lord who set His people free;
His tribes have passed on dry ground through the flood,
Their foes cast down to darkest depth of sea;
With His right hand, and glorious holy arm
The King gains for Himself the victory.
2 The enemy said, I will overtake,
But horse and rider sank down like a stone
In surging tide, when parted watery walls
By God on high were all together thrown.
With His right hand, and glorious mighty power
The King gains for Himself the victory.
3 The enemy said, I will cast them down
To lions’ den, into the sevenfold flame;
But angels saved them from the lions’ mouths,
And cooling wind into the furnace came.
With His right hand, that rules o’er beast and fire,
The King gains for Himself the victory.
The enemy said, I will bind in chains
Th’imprisoned souls that lie in death’s domain;
But Christ the Lord led them into the light,
And Hades’ prisoners were free again;
With His right hand, and power o’er life and death,
The King gains for Himself the victory.
Glory, thanksgiving, praises to the King
May all His servants bring ’til heavens ring;
See, through the grave and gate of death He passed,
From bonds of sin His precious own to free;
With His right hand, and glorious holy arm
The King gains for Himself the victory.

As Jonah, Issuing from His Three Days' Tomb
Author: Cosmas the Melodist; John M. Neale Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1. As Jonah, issuing from his three days’ tomb,
At length was cast, uninjured, on the earth;
So, from the virgin’s unpolluted womb
Th’incarnate Word, that dwelt there, had His birth:
For He, who knew no taint of mortal stain,
Willed that His mother spotless should remain.
2. Christ comes, incarnate God, amongst us now,
Begotten of the Father ere the day:
And He, to whom the sinless legions bow,
Lies cradled, ’midst unconscious beasts on hay:
And, by His homely swaddling-bands girt in,
Looses the many fetters of our sin.
3. Now the new Child of Adam’s race draws nigh,
To us, the faithful, giv’n: This, this is He
That shall the Father of eternity,
The Angel of the Mighty Counsel, be:
This the eternal God, by whose strong hands
The fabric of the world supported stands. Used With Tune: YORKSHIRE Text Sources: Trans. Hymns of the Eastern Church, 1862
As Jonah, Issuing from His Three Days' Tomb
Oh More Than Merciful
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Oh more than merciful! whose bounty gave Lyrics: 1 Oh more than merciful! whose bounty gave
Thy guiltless self to glut the greedy grave!
Whose heart was rent to pay Thy people’s price;
The great high priest at once and sacrifice!
Help, Savior, by Thy cross and crimson stain,
Nor let Thy glorious blood be spilt in vain!
2 When sin with flowery garland hides her dart,
When tyrant force would daunt the sinking heart,
When fleshly lust assails, or worldly care,
Or the soul flutters in the fowler’s snare—
Help, Savior, by Thy cross and crimson stain,
Nor let Thy glorious blood be spilt in vain!
3 And, chiefest then, when nature yields the strife,
And mortal darkness wraps the gate of life;
When the poor spirit, from the tomb set free,
Sinks at Thy feet and lifts its hope to Thee—
Help, Savior, by Thy cross and crimson stain,
Nor let Thy glorious blood be spilt in vain! Used With Tune: YORKSHIRE Text Sources: Published posthumously in Hymns Written and Adapted to the Weekly Church Service of the Year (London: J. Murray, 1827)
