O King of Glory! David's Son!
Author: Martin Behm; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 27 hymnals First Line: O King of Glory! David's Son Lyrics: 1. O King of Glory! David’s Son!
Our Sovereign and our Friend!
In Heav’n forever stands Thy throne,
Thy kingdom hath no end:
Oh now to all men, far and near,
Lord, make it known, we pray,
That as in Heav’n all creatures here
May know Thee and obey.
2. The Eastern sages gladly bring
Their tribute-gifts to Thee;
They witness that Thou art their King,
And humbly bow the knee;
To Thee the morning star doth lead,
To Thee th’inspirèd Word,
We hail Thee, Savior in our need,
We worship Thee, the Lord.
3. Ah look on me with pitying grace,
Though weak and poor I be,
Within Thy kingdom grant a place
Secure and blest to me.
Oh rescue me from all my woes,
And shield me with Thine arm
From sin and death, the mighty foes
That daily seek our harm.
4. And bid Thy Word, the fairest Star,
Within us clearly shine;
Keep sin and all false doctrine far,
Since Thou hast claimed us Thine:
Let us Thy name aright confess,
And with Thy Christendom,
Our King and Savior own and bless
Through all the world to come. Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD Text Sources: Centuria precationum rhythmicarum (Wittenberg, Germany: 1606); translation in Lyra Germanica, second series, 1858

Deep in the Shadows of the Past
Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Deep in the shadows of the past,
far out from settled lands,
some nomads traveled with their God
across the desert sands.
The dawning hope of humankind
by them was sensed and shown;
a promise calling them ahead,
a future yet unknown.
2 While others bowed to changeless gods
they met a mystery,
invisible, without a name:
"I AM WHAT I WILL BE";
and by their tents, around their fires,
in story, song and law,
they praised, remembered, handed on
a past that promised more.
3 From Exodus to Pentecost
the promise changed and grew,
while some, remembering the past,
recorded what they knew,
or with their letters and laments,
their prophecy and praise
recovered, kindled and expressed
new hope for changing days.
4 For all the writings that survived,
for leaders, long ago,
who sifted, copied and preserved
the Bible that we know,
give thanks, and find its story yet
our promise, strength and call,
the model of emerging faith,
alive with hope for all. Topics: The Community of Faith The Book of the Church: Holy Scripture Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

All You Who Seek a Comfort Sure
Author: Edwad Caswall, 1814-1878 Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All you who seek a comfort sure
In sadness and distress,
Whatever sorrow burdens you,
Whatever griefs oppress:
When Jesus gave himself for us
And died upon the tree,
His heart was pierced for love of us;
He died to set us free.
2 Now hear him as he speaks to us
Those words for ever blest:
"All you who labor, come to me,
And I will give you rest."
O heart adored by saints on high,
And hope of sinners here,
We place our ev'ry trust in you
And lift to you our prayer. Topics: Comfort/Consolation; Healing; Sacraments/Rites Reconciliation; Order of Christian Funerals Funeral Liturgy; Sacred Heart Scripture: Matthew 11:1-6 Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD Text Sources: Latin, 18th C.

who lift our hearts to thee;
have mercy now, most merciful,
most holy Trinity.
When heaven and earth were yet unmade,
when time was yet unknown,
thou in thy bliss and majesty
didst live and love alone.
2 How wonderful creation is,
the work which thou didst bless;
and, O what then must thou be like,
eternal loveliness!
Most ancient of all mysteries!
Low at thy throne we lie:
have mercy now, most merciful,
most holy Trinity. Topics: Creation; Trinity; Elements of Worship Confession Scripture: Psalm 51 Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD

O Come to Me, the Master Said
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O come to me, the Master said,
my Father knows your need;
and I shall be, the Master said,
your bread of life indeed.
By faith in him we live and grow
and share the broken bread,
and all his love and goodness know,
for so the Master said.
2 Abide in me, the Master said,
the true and living vine;
my life shall be, the Master said,
poured out for you as wine.
His body to the cross he gave,
his blood he freely shed,
who came in love to seek and save,
for so the Master said.
3 Believe in me, the Master said,
for I have called you friends,
and yours shall be, the Master said,
the life that never ends.
And so, with sin and sorrow past,
when death itself is dead,
the Lord shall raise us up at last,
for so the Master said.
