Songs of Thankfulness and Praise
Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-85 Hymnal: LW1982 #88 (1982) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Person Name: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-85 Lyrics: 1 Songs of thankfulness and praise,
Jesus, Lord, to thee we raise;
Manifested by the star
To the sages from afar,
Branch of royal David's stem
In thy birth at Bethlehem:
Anthems be to thee addressed,
God in flesh made manifest.
2 Manifest at Jordan's stream,
Prophet, Priest, and King supreme;
And at Cana wedding guest
In thy Godhead manifest;
Manifest in pow'r divine,
Changing water into wine;
Anthems be to thee addressed,
God in flesh made manifest.
3 Manifest in making whole
Palsied limbs and fainting soul;
Manifest in valiant fight,
Quelling all the devil's might;
Manifest in gracious will,
Ever bringing good from ill;
Anthems be to thee addressed,
God in flesh made manifest.
4 Grant us grace to see thee, Lord,
Present in thy holy Word;
Grace to imitate thee now
And be pure, as pure art thou;
That we might become like thee
At thy great epiphany
And may praise thee, ever blest,
God in flesh made manifest. Topics: Epiphany Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE'S WINDSOR

O Day of Rest and Gladness
Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-85 Hymnal: LW1982 #203 (1982) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Person Name: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-85 Lyrics: 1 O day of rest and gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
Most beautiful, most bright:
On you the high and lowly,
Through ages joined in tune,
Sing, "Holy, holy, holy,"
To the great God triune.
2 On you at earth's creation
The light first had its birth;
On you for our salvation
Christ rose from depths of earth;
On you our Lord victorious
The Spirit sent from heav'n;
And thus on you, most glorious,
A three-fold light was giv'n.
3 Today on weary nations
The heav'nly manna falls;
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
Where Gospel light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
5 New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We reach the rest remaining
To spirits of the blest.
To Holy Ghost be praises,
To Father, and to Son;
The Church its voice upraises
To you, blest Three in One. Topics: Beginning of Service; Sunday Languages: English Tune Title: ELLACOMBE

Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and ev'rywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born!

O'er silent flocks by night,
Behold, throughout the heavens
There shone a holy light. [Refrain]
2 The shepherds feared and trembled
When lo, above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus
That hailed our Savior's birth. [Refrain]

The humble Christ was born;
And God sent us salvation
That blessed Christmas morn. [Refrain] Topics: Spiritual Songs Languages: English Tune Title: GO TELL IT

Elijah's mantle on Elisha cast.
Each age its solemn task may claim but once;
Make each one better, nobler than the last.
2 Anoint them prophets, men who are intent
To hear and share your Word; their hearts awake
To human need; their lips make eloquent
To gird the right and ev'ry evil break.
3 Anoint them priests; strong intercessors, they,
For pardon and for love and hope and peace.
Oh, if with them the world might,now astray,
Find, Lord, in you from all their woes release.
4 Make them apostles, heralds of your cross;
Forth let them go to tell all lands your grace.
By you inspired, they count all else but loss
And stand at last with joy before your face. Topics: Ordination, Installation Languages: English Tune Title: OLD 124TH abbr.

My beauty are, my glorious dress;
Mid flaming worlds, in these arrayed,
With joy shall I lift up my head.
2 Bold shall I stand in that great day,
Cleansed and redeemed, no debt to pay;
For by your cross, absolved I am
From sin and guilt, from fear and shame.
3 Lord, I believe your precious blood,
Which at the mercy seat of God
Pleads for the captives' liberty,
Was also shed in love for me.
4 Lord, I believe, were sinners more
Than sands upon the ocean shore,
You have for all a ransom paid,
For all a full atonement made.
5 When from the dust of death I rise
To claim my mansion in the skies,
This then shall be my only plea:
Christ Jesus lived and died for me.
6 Then shall I praise you and adore
Your blessed name forevermore,
Who once, for me and all you made,
An everlasting ransom paid. Topics: Atonement; Church Triumphant; Eternal Life; Justification; Life Everlasting Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CRISPIN

Till our rest be won;
And although the way be cheerless,
We will follow calm and fearless;
Guide us by your hand
To our fatherland.
2 If the way be drear,
If the foe be near,
Let no faithless fears o'ertake us,
Let not faith and hope forsake us;
Safely past the foe
To our home we go.
3 When we seek relief
From a long-felt grief,
When temptations come alluring,
Make us patient and enduring;
Show us that bright shore
Where we weep no more.
4 Jesus, still lead on
Till our rest be won;
Heav'nly leader, still direct us,
Still support, console, protect us,
Till we safely stand
In our fatherland. Topics: Confirmation; Hope; Love and Obedience; New Year; Pilgrimage; Trust Languages: English Tune Title: SEELENBRÄUTIGAM
