God, that madest earth and heaven
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826; Richard Whately, 1787-1863 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #15 (2000) Meter: 8.4.8.4.8.8.8.4 Tune Title: AR HYD Y NOS Lyrics: 1 God, that madest earth and heaven,
darkness and light;
who the day for toil hast given,
for rest the night;
may thine angel-guards defend us,
slumber sweet thy mercy send us,
holy dreams and hopes attend us,
this livelong night.
2 Guard us waking, guard us sleeping,
and, when we die,
may we in thy mighty keeping
all peaceful lie:
When the last dread call shall wake us,
do not thou our God forsake us,
but to reign in glory take us
with thee on high. Topics: Evening Scripture: Genesis 1:1 Languages: English
God, that madest earth and heaven
O cross of Christ, immortal tree
Author: Stanbrook Abbey Hymnal: CPAM2000 #115 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: ARDEN Lyrics: 1 O cross of Christ, immortal tree
on which our Saviour died,
the world is sheltered by your arms
that bore the crucified.
2 From bitter death and barren wood
the tree of life is made;
its branches bear unfailing fruit
and leaves that never fade.
3 O faithful cross, you stand unmoved
while ages run their course:
foundation of the universe,
creation's binding force.
4 Give glory to the risen Christ
and to his cross give praise,
the sign of God's unfathomed love,
the hope of all our days. Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Scripture: Acts 5:30 Languages: English
O cross of Christ, immortal tree
With joy we meditate the grace
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #624 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: ARDEN Lyrics: 1 With joy we meditate the grace
of our High Priest above;
his heart is made of tenderness,
and ever yearns with love.
2 Touched with a sympathy within,
he knows our feeble frame;
he knows what sore temptations mean
for he has felt the same.
3 He in the days of feeble flesh
poured out his cries and tears;
and, in his measure, feels afresh
what every member bears.
4 He'll never quench the smoking flax,
but raise it to a flame;
the bruisèd reed he never breaks,
nor scorns the meanest name.
5 Then let our humble faith address
his mercy and his power:
we shall obtain delivering grace
in every needful hour. Topics: Proper 20 Year A Scripture: Hebrews 4:14-16 Languages: English
With joy we meditate the grace
The church's one foundation
Author: S. J. Stone, 1839-1900 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #585 (2000) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Tune Title: AURELIA Lyrics: 1 The church's one foundation
is Jesus Christ her Lord;
she is his new creation
by water and the word:
from heaven he came and sought her
to be his holy Bride;
with his own blood he bought her,
and for her life he died.
2 Elect from every nation,
yet one o'er all the earth,
her charter of salvation
one Lord, one faith, one birth;
one holy name she blesses,
partakes one holy food,
and to one hope she presses
with every grace endued.
*3 Though with a scornful wonder
men see her sore opprest,
by schisms rent asunder,
by heresies distrest;
yet saints their watch are keeping,
their cry goes up, 'How long?'
And soon the night of weeping
shall be the morn of song.
4 'Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of her war,
she waits the consummation
of peace for evermore;
till with the vision glorious
her longing eyes are blest,
and the great church victorious
shall be the church at rest.
5 Yet she on earth hath union
with God the Three in One,
and mystic sweet communion
with those whose rest is won:
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we,
like them, the meek and lowly,
on high may dwell with thee. Topics: Third Sunday Before Lent Year A; Proper 5 Year C; Proper 16 Year A Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:10-13 Languages: English
The church's one foundation
Forty days and forty nights
Author: G. H. Smyttan, 1822-1870; Francis Pott, 1832-1909 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #95 (2000) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Tune Title: AUS DER TIEFE (HEINLEIN) Lyrics: 1 Forty days and forty nights
thou wast fasting in the wild;
forty days and forty nights
tempted, and yet undefiled:
2 Sunbeams scorching all the day;
chilly dew-drops nightly shed;
prowling beasts about thy way;
stones thy pillow, earth thy bed.
3 Shall not we thy sorrows share,
and from earthly joys abstain,
fasting with unceasing prayer,
glad with thee to suffer pain?
4 And if Satan, vexing sore,
flesh or spirit should assail,
thou, his vanquisher before,
grant we may not faint nor fail.
5 So shall we have peace divine;
holier gladness ours shall be;
round us too shall angels shine,
such as ministered to thee.
6 Keep, O keep us, Saviour dear,
ever constant by thy side;
that with thee we may appear
at the eternal Eastertide. Topics: Lent; Ash Wednesday; Lent I Year A; Lent I Year B; Lent I Year C Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:17 Languages: English
Forty days and forty nights
Glorious things of thee are spoken
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #435b (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Tune Title: AUSTRIA Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken,
Zion, city of our God;
he whose word cannot be broken
formed thee for his own abode.
On the Rock of ages founded,
what can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
thou may'st smile at all thy foes.
2 See, the streams of living waters,
springing from eternal love,
well supply thy sons and daughters,
and all fear of want remove.
Who can faint while such a river
ever flows their thirst to assuage:
grace which, like the Lord the giver,
never fails from age to age?
*3 Round each habitation hovering,
see the cloud and fire appear
for a glory and a covering,
showing that the Lord is near.
Thus they march, the pillar leading,
light by night and shade by day;
daily on the manna feeding
which he gives them when they pray.
4 Saviour, if of Zion's city
I through grace a member am,
let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in thy name.
Fading is the worldling's pleasure,
all his boasted pomp and show;
solid joys and lasting treasure,
none but Zion's children know. Topics: Lent III Year A; Proper 9 Year B; Second Sunday Before Advent Year B Scripture: 1 John 2:17 Languages: English
Glorious things of thee are spoken
Praise the Lord! Ye heavens adore him
Hymnal: CPAM2000 #556 (2000) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Tune Title: AUSTRIA Lyrics: 1 Praise the Lord! Ye heavens, adore him;
praise him, angels, in the height;
sun and moon, rejoice before him,
praise him, all ye stars and light.
Praise the Lord! for he hath spoken;
worlds his mighty voice obeyed:
laws, which never shall be broken,
for their guidance he hath made.
2 Praise the Lord! for he is glorious;
never shall his promise fail:
God hath made his saints victorious;
sin and death shall not prevail.
Praise the God of our salvation;
hosts on high, his power proclaim;
heaven and earth and all creation,
laud and magnify his name! Scripture: 1 Chronicles 16:35 Languages: English
Praise the Lord! Ye heavens adore him
Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
Author: St John of Damascus, d. c. 754; J. M. Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #143b (2000) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Tune Title: AVE VIRGO VIRGINUM Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness!
God hath brought his Israel
into joy from sadness;
loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters;
led them with unmoistened foot
through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls to-day;
Christ hath burst his prison,
and from three days' sleep in death
as a sun hath risen:
all the winter of our sins,
long and dark, is flying
from his light, to whom we give
laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons, bright
with the day of splendour,
with the royal feast of feasts,
comes its joy to render;
comes to glad Jerusalem,
who with true affection
welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesu's resurrection.
4 Alleluia now we cry
to our King immortal,
who triumphant burst the bars
of the tomb's dark portal;
Alleluia, with the Son
God the Father praising;
Alleluia yet again
to the Spirit raising. Topics: Easter; Easter III Year C; Easter IV Year A; Easter V Year B Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:17 Languages: English
Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
Christian people, raise your song

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: CPAM2000 #45 (2000) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Tune Title: AWAY IN A MANGER Lyrics: 1 Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
the little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head;
the stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay,
the little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.
2 The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,
but little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes.
I love thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
and stay by my side until morning is nigh.
3 Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask thee to stay
close by me for ever, and love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care,
and fit us for heaven, to live with thee there.
Scripture: Luke 2:6-7 Languages: English
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
