The Lamb's High Banquet
Author: J. M. Neale Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 24 hymnals Topics: Biblical Characters Pharaoh First Line: The Lamb's high banquet called to share Lyrics: 1 The Lamb's high banquet called to share,
arrayed in garments white and fair,
the Red Sea past, we now would sing
to Jesus our triumphant King.
2 Upon the altar of the cross
his body hath redeemed our loss;
and, tasting of his precious blood,
our life is hid with him in God.
3 That paschal eve God's arm was bared,
the devastating angel spared;
by strength of hand our hosts went free
from Pharaoh's ruthless tyranny.
4 Now Christ, our Passover, is slain,
the Lamb of God without a stain;
the true oblationoffered here,
our own unleavened bread sincere.
5 Christ rises conqueror from the grace,
from death returning, strong to save,
with his right hand the tyrant chains,
and pradise for us regains.
5 All praise be thine, O risen Lord,
from death to endless life restored;
all praise to God the Father be
and Holy Ghost eternally.

I Danced in the Morning
Author: Sydney Carter Meter: Irregular Appears in 52 hymnals Topics: Biblical Characters James and John; Biblical Characters Pharisees Refrain First Line: Dance, then, wherever you may be Lyrics: 1 I danced in the morning
when the world was begun,
and I danced in the moon
and the stars and the sun,
and I came down from heaven
and I danced on the earth;
at Bethlehem I had my birth.
[Refrain:]
Dance, then, wherever you may be;
I am the Lord of the dance, said he,
and I’ll lead you all, wherever you may be,
and I’ll lead you all in the dance, said he.
2 I danced for the scribe
and the pharisee,
but they would not dance
and they would not follow me;
I danced for the fishermen,
for James and John;
they came with me
and the dance went on. [Refrain]
3 I danced on the Sabbath
and I cured the lame;
the holy people
said it was a shame;
they whipped and they stripped
and they hung me high,
and they left me there
on a cross to die. [Refrain]
4 I danced on a Friday
when the sky turned black;
it’s hard to dance
with the devil on your back;
they buried my body
and they thought I’d gone,
but I am the dance
and I still go on. [Refrain]
5 They cut me down
and I leap up high;
I am the life
that will never, never die;
I’ll live in you
if you’ll live in me;
I am the Lord
of the dance, said he. [Refrain] Used With Tune: LORD OF THE DANCE

1 Arise, O King of grace, arise,
and enter to thy rest:
thy people wait with longing eyes
thus to be owned and blessed.
2 Enter with all thy glorious train,
thy Spirit and thyh word;
all that the Ark did once contain
could no such grace afford.
3 Here, mighty God, accept our vows,
here let thy praise be spread;
bless the provisions of thy house
and fill thy poor with bread.
4 Here let the Son of David reign,
let God's Anointed shine;
justice and truth his court maintain
with love and power divine.
5 Clothe all thy ministers with grace,
let truth their tongues employ,
that in the Savior's righteousness
thy saints may shout for joy.

revive my heart, increase my faith:

Thy work I love, thy judgments fear,
and tremble while I pray and praise.

A Hymn of Glory Let Us Sing
Author: Venerable Bede; B. Webb; J. M. Neale Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 46 hymnals Topics: Biblical Characters Mary Lyrics: 1 A hymn of glory let us sing;
New songs thro'out the world shall ring:
Christ by a road before untrod,
ascendeth to the throne of God.
The holy apostolic band
upon the Mount of Olives stand,
and with the virgin mother see
their Lord's resplendent majesty.
2 To them the angels, drawing nigh;
"Why stand and gaze upon the sky?
This is the Saviour," thus they say;
"this is his noble triumph day.
Again shall ye behold him so
as ye today have seen him go:
in glorious pomp ascending high
up to the portals of the sky."
3 O grant us thitherward to tend,
and with unwearied hearts ascend
toward thy kingdom's throne, where thou,
as is our faith, art seated now.
Be thou our joy and strong defense,
who art our future recompense:
so shall the light that springs from thee
be ours through all eternity.
Scripture: Genesis 15:1 Used With Tune: ST. PATRICK Text Sources: Hymnum canamus gloriae
