Glory, love, and praise, and honour
Author: Charles Wesley 1707-1788 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #436 (2000) Meter: 8.3.3.6 D Tune Title: BENIFOLD Lyrics: 1 Glory, love and praise, and honour
for our food,
now bestowed,
render we the Donor.
Bounteous God, we now confess thee;
God, who thus
blessest us,
meet it is to bless thee.
2 Thankful for our every blessing,
let us sing
Christ the Spring,
never, never ceasing.
Source of all our gifts and graces
Christ we own;
Christ alone
calls for all our praises.
3 He dispels our sin and sadness,
life imparts,
cheers our hearts,
fills with food and gladness.
Who himself for all hath given,
us he feeds,
us he leads
to a feast in heaven. Topics: Proper 15 Year B; Holy Communion Scripture: Acts 14:17 Languages: English
Glory, love, and praise, and honour
God is working his purpose out, as year succeeds to year
Author: Arthur C. Ainger, 1841-1919 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #444 (2000) Meter: Irregular Tune Title: BENSON Lyrics: 1 God is working his purpose out, as year succeeds to year,
God is working his purpose out, and the time is drawing near;
nearer and nearer draws the time, the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
2 From utmost east to utmost west, wherever feet have trod,
by the mouth of many messengers goes forth the voice of God,
'Give ear to me, ye continents, ye isles, give ear to me,
that the earth may be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.'
3 What can we do to work God's work, to prosper and increase
the love of God in all mankind, the reign of the Prince of peace?
What can we do to hasten the time, the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea?
4 March we forth in the strength of God, with the banner of Christ unfurled,
that the light of the glorious gospel of truth may shine throughout the world;
fight we the fight with sorrow and sin, to set their captives free,
that the earth may be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
5 All we can do is nothing worth unless God blesses the deed;
vainly we hope for the harvest-tide till God gives life to the seed;
yet nearer and nearer draws the time, the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea. Topics: Advent III Year B; New Year Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:36-39 Languages: English
God is working his purpose out, as year succeeds to year
O Christ the word incarnate
Author: W. Walsham How, 1823-1897 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #531 (2000) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Tune Title: BENTLEY Lyrics: 1 O Christ the Word incarnate,
O wisdom from on high,
O truth unchanged, unchanging,
O light of our dark sky,
we praise thee for the radiance
that from the hallowed page,
a lantern to our footsteps
shines on from age to age.
2 The Church from her dear Master
received the gift divine,
and still that light she lifteth
o'er all the earth to shine;
it is the precious treasury
where gems of truth are stored;
it is the heaven-drawn picture
of Christ, the living Word.
3 O make thy Church, dear Saviour,
a lamp of burnished gold,
to bear before the nations
thy true light, as of old;
O teach thy wandering pilgrims
by this their path to trace,
till, clouds and darkness ended,
they see thee face to face. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:24 Languages: English
O Christ the word incarnate
People, look East. The time is near
Author: Eleanor Farjeon, 1881-1965 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #35 (2000) Meter: 8.7.9.8.8.7 Tune Title: BESANÇON Topics: Advent; Advent IV Year A; Advent IV Year C Scripture: Luke 2:8-14 Languages: English
People, look East. The time is near
There is a land of pure delight
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #597 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: BEULAH Lyrics: 1 There is a land of pure delight,
where saints immortal reign;
infinite day excludes the night,
and pleasures banish pain.
2 There everlasting spring abides,
and never-withering flowers;
death, like a narrow sea, divides
that heavenly land from ours.
3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood
stand dressed in living green;
so to the Jews old Canaan stood,
while Jordan rolled between.
4 But timorous mortals start and shrink
to cross the narrow sea,
and linger shivering on the brink,
and fear to launch away.
5 O could we make our doubts remove,
those gloomy doubts that rise,
and see the Canaan that we love
with unbeclouded eyes;
6 Could we but climb where Moses stood,
and view the landscape o'er,
not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,
should fright us from the shore!

There is a land of pure delight

Lord, I have made thy word my choice
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #504 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: BILLING Lyrics: 1Lord, I have made thy word my choice,
my lasting heritage;
there shall my noblest powers rejoice,
my truest thoughts engage.
2 I'll read the histories of thy love,
and keep thy laws in sight,
while through the promises I rove
with ever-fresh delight.
3 'Tis a broad land of wealth unknown,
where springs of life arise,
seeds of immortal bliss are sown,
and hidden glory lies. Topics: Epiphany III Year C; Fifth Sunday Before Lent Year A; Proper 18 Year C; Bible Sunday Scripture: Psalm 119:16 Languages: English

O quam juvat
Author: Robert Bridges, 1844-1930; Charles Coffin, 1676-1749 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #456 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Tune Title: BINCHESTER First Line: Happy are they, they that love God Lyrics: 1 Happy are they, they that love God,
whose hearts have Christ confest,
who by his cross have found their life,
and 'neath his yoke their rest.
2 Glad is the praise, sweet are the songs,
when they together sing;
and strong the prayers that bow the ear
of heaven's eternal King.
3 Christ to their homes giveth his peace,
and makes their loves his own:
but ah, what tares the evil one
hath in his garden sown!
4 Sad were our lot, evil this earth,
did not its sorrows prove
the path whereby the sheep may find
the fold of Jesus' love.
5 Then shall they know, they that love him,
how all their pain is good;
and death itself cannot unbind
their happy brotherhood.

Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear
Author: John Keble, 1792-1866 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #21b (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Title: BIRLING Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear,
it is not night if thou be near:
O may no earth-born cloud arise
to hide thee from thy servant's eyes.
2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep
my weary eyelids gently steep,
be my last thought, how sweet to rest
for ever on my Saviour's breast.
3 Abide with me from morn till eve,
for without thee I cannot live;
abide with me when night is nigh,
for without thee I dare not die.
4 If some poor wandering child of thine
have spurned to-day the voice divine,
now, Lord, the gracious work begin;
let him no more lie down in sin.
5 Watch by the sick; enrich the poor
with blessings from thy boundless store;
be every mourner's sleep to-night,
like infant's slumbers, pure and light.
6 Come near and bless us when we wake,
ere through the world our way we take;
till in the ocean of thy love
we lose ourselves in heaven above. Topics: Evening Scripture: James 5:19-20 Languages: English
Sun of my soul, thou Saviour dear
The heavens declare thy glory, Lord
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: CPAM2000 #264 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Title: BIRLING Lyrics: 1 The heavens declare thy glory, Lord;
in every star thy wisdom shines;
but when our eyes behold thy word,
we read thy name in fairer lines.
2 The rolling sun, the changing light,
and nights and days, thy power confess;
but the blest volume thou hast writ
reveals thy justice and thy grace.
3 Sun, moon, and stars convey thy praise
round the whole earth, and never stand;
so, when thy truth began its race,
it touched and glanced on every land.
4 Nor shall thy spreading gospel rest
till through the world thy truth has run;
till Christ has all the nations blest
that see the light or feel the sun.
5 Great Sun of Righteousness, arise;
bless the dark world with heavenly light;
thy gospel makes the simple wise,
thy laws are pure, thy judgements right.
6 Thy noblest wonders here we view,
in souls renewed and sins forgiven:
Lord, cleanse my sins, my soul renew,
and make thy word my guide to heaven. Topics: Creation Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:15-16 Languages: English
The heavens declare thy glory, Lord
