O Morning Star, How Fair and Bright
Author: Philipp Nicolai; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #247 (1989) Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.4.8.4.8 Topics: Christian Year Christmas; Christian Year Epiphany; Christian Year Christmas; Christian Year Epiphany Lyrics: 1. O Morning Star, how fair and bright
thou beamest forth in truth and light,
O Sovereign meek and lowly!
Thou Root of Jesse, David's Son,
my Lord and Master, thou hast won
my heart to serve thee solely!
Thou art holy,
fair and glorious, all-victorious,
rich in blessing,
rule and might o'er all possessing.
2. Thou heavenly Brightness! Light divine!
O deep within my heart now shine,
and make thee there an altar!
Fill me with joy and strength to be
thy member, ever joined to thee
in love that cannot falter;
toward thee longing
doth possess me; turn and bless me;
here in sadness
eye and heart long for thy gladness!
3 What joy to know, when life is past,
the Lord we love is first and last,
the end and the beginning!
He will one day, O glorious grace,
transport us to that happy place
beyond all tears and sinning!
Amen! Amen!
Come, Lord Jesus! Crown of gladness,
we are yearning
for the day of your returning.

There's a Song in the Air
Author: Josiah G. Holland Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #249 (1989) Meter: 6.6.6.6.12.12 Topics: Christian Year Christmas; Christian Year Epiphany; Christian Year Christmas; Christian Year Epiphany Lyrics: 1. There's a song in the air!
There's a star in the sky!
There's a mother's deep prayer
and a baby's low cry!
And the star rains its fire
while the beautiful sing,
for the manger of Bethlehem
cradles a King!
2. There's a tumult of joy
o'er the wonderful birth,
for the virgin's sweet boy
is the Lord of the earth.
Ay! the star rains its fire
while the beautiful sing,
for the manger of Bethlehem
cradles a King!
3. In the light of that star
lie the ages impearled;
and that song from afar
has swept over the world.
Every hearth is aflame,
and the beautiful sing
in the homes of the nations
that Jesus is King!
4. We rejoice in the light,
and we echo the song
that comes down through the night
from the heavenly throng.
Ay! we shout to the lovely
evangel they bring,
and we greet in his cradle
our Savior and King!

Once in Royal David's City
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #250 (1989) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Christian Year Christmas; Christian Year Epiphany; Christian Year Christmas; Christian Year Epiphany Lyrics: 1. Once in royal David's city
stood a lowly cattle shed,
where a mother laid her baby
in a manger for his bed;
Mary, loving mother mild,
Jesus Christ, her little child.
2. He came down to earth from heaven
who is God and Lord of all,
and his shelter was a stable,
and his cradle was a stall.
With the poor, the scorned, the lowly
lived on earth our Savior holy.
3. Jesus is our childhood's pattern;
day by day, like us he grew;
he was little, weak, and helpless,
tears and smiles like us he knew;
and he feeleth for our sadness,
and he shareth in our gladness.
4. And our eyes at last shall see him,
through his own redeeming love;
for that child so dear and gentle
is our Lord in heaven above;
and he leads his children on
to the place where he is gone.

sounds through the earth and skies. [Refrain]

your tongues again employ;
you blind, behold your Saviour comes,
and leap, you lame, for joy!

assist me to proclaim,
to spread through all the earth abroad
the honours of your name. Tune Title: AZMON

his holy fast and hungered sore;
for us temptations sharp he knew,

for us, in crown of thorns arrayed,
he bore the shameful cross and death;
for us gave up his dying breath.
4 For us he rose from death again;
for us he went on high to reign;
for us he sent the Spirit here
to guide, to strengthen, and to cheer.

for love so deep, so high, so broad:
the Trinity whom we adore
forever and forevermore. Scripture: Matthew 3:13 Languages: English Tune Title: DEO GRACIAS
