Calm on the Listening Ear of Night
Author: Edmund Hamilton Sears Hymnal: HOoS1926 #38 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Tune Title: BETHLEHEM (NEW) First Line: Calm on the list'ning ear of night Lyrics: 1 Calm on the list'ning ear of night
Come heav'n's melodious strains,
Where wild Judea stretches forth
Her silver-mantled plains;
Celestial choirs from courts above
Shed sacred glories there;
And angels, with their sparkling lyres,
Make music on the air.
2 The answ'ring hills of Palestine
Send back the glad reply,
And greet from all their holy heights
The Day-spring from on high:
O'er the blue depths of Galilee
There comes a holier calm;
And Sharon waves in solemn praise
Her silent groves of palm.
3 "Glory to God!" the lofty strain
The realm of ether fills;
How sweeps the song of solemn joy
O'er Judah's sacred hills!
"Glory to God!" the sounding skies
Loud with their anthems ring:
"Peace on the earth; good will to men,"
From heaven's eternal King.
4 This day shall Christian tongues be mute,
And Christian hearts be cold?
O catch the anthem that from heaven
O'er Judah's mountains rolled,
When burst upon that listening night
The high and solemn lay,
"Glory to God; on earth be peace":
Salvation comes to-day.
Amen. Topics: Church Year Christmas; Christmas Day; Names and Office of Christ Dayspring Languages: English
Calm on the Listening Ear of Night
O Thou, Who by a Star Didst Guide
Author: John Mason Neale Hymnal: HOoS1926 #63 (1926) Tune Title: BETHLEHEM (NEW) Lyrics: 1 O Thou, who by a star didst guide
The wise men on their way,
Until it came and stood beside
The place where Jesus lay:
Although by stars Thou dost not lead
Thy servants now below,
Thy Holy Spirit, when they need,
Will show them how to go.
2 As yet we know Thee but in part,
But still we trust Thy Word,
That blessed are the pure in heart,
For they shall see the Lord.
O Saviour, give us then Thy grace
To make us pure in heart,
That we may see Thee face to face,
Hereafter as Thou art.

Saviour, For the Little One
Author: Mary Ann Thomson Hymnal: HOoS1926 #609 (1926) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Tune Title: BLESSED HOPE Lyrics: 1 Saviour, for the little one
Safely gathered in Thine arms,
Ere the battle had begun,
Victor, spared from war's alarms,
We who toil and struggle sing
Praise to Thee, the children's King.
2 Thou dost give and take away,
Full of love, in all Thy ways:
Be each mourner's heart to-day
Full of loving trust and praise,
In the midst of grief to bring
Thanks to Thee, the children's King.
Amen. Topics: Last Things Death and Burial of Children Languages: English

In my suff'rings to sustain;
In my sorer griefs to cheer me
By Thy more than mortal pain.
Call to mind that unknown anguish
In Thy days of flesh below,
When Thy troubled soul did languish
Under a whole world of woe.
2 By Thy fainting in the garden,
By Thy dreadful death, I pray,
Write upon my heart Thy pardon,
Take my sins and fears away.
By the travail of Thy Spirit,
By Thine outcry on the tree,
By thine agonizing merit,
Gracious Lord, remember me!

Dread Jehovah, God of Nature
Hymnal: HOoS1926 #576 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Tune Title: BÖJD UNDER KORSET Lyrics: 1 Dread Jehovah, God of nature,
From Thy temple in the skies,
Hear Thy people's supplications,
Now for their deliv'rance rise.
2 Lo, with deep contrition turning,
Humbly at Thy feet we bend;
Hear us, fasting, praying, mourning;
Hear us, spare us, and defend.
3 Though our sins, our hearts confounding,
Long and loud for vengeance call,
Thou hast mercy more abounding,
Jesus' blood can cleanse from all.
4 Let that love veil our transgression,
Let that blood our guilt efface:
Save Thy people from oppression,
Save from spoil Thy holy place.

A Charge to Keep I Have
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: HOoS1926 #501 (1926) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Tune Title: BOYLSTON Lyrics: 1 A charge to keep I have,
A God to glorify;
A never-dying soul to save,
And fit it for the sky.
2 To serve the present age,
My calling to fulfill;
O may it all my pow'rs engage
To do my Master's will.
3 Arm me with jealous care,
As in Thy sight to live;
And O, Thy servant, Lord, prepare
A strict account to give!
4 Help me to watch and pray,
On Thee alone rely,
Assured, if Thee I trust alway,
That I shall never die.
Amen. Topics: Christian Conduct and Service; Septuagesima Languages: English

"Repent, the Kingdom Draweth Nigh"
Author: Anna Hoppe Hymnal: HOoS1926 #15 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Tune Title: BRESLAU Lyrics: 1 "Repent, the kingdom draweth nigh,"
The herald of the Lord doth cry.
Ye sinners lost through Adam’s fall,
Will ye not hearken to the call?
2 Repent! The gracious call believe,
Haste His forgiveness to receive.
The Prince of Life, incarnate Word,
Life and salvation can afford.
3 Divine Redeemer, glorious King!
Repentant hearts to Thee we bring.
Thy holy blood for us was spilt,
Cleanse us from all the stains of guilt.
4 Drawn by Thy Spirit, through Thy Word,
Thine invitation have we heard.
In answer to Thy sweet request,
We come to Thee, O Christ, for rest.
5 Thy pardon, full, complete, and free,
Removes sin’s awful penalty.
Our Father’s love is now restored;
Thou hast redeemed us, dearest Lord.
6 Let us Thy Name forever bless,
On earth Thy gospel truth confess,
Till saved by grace, through faith in Thee,
The gates of paradise we see.

Unbroken by the last of foes.

To be for such a slumber meet!
With holy confidence to sing
That death has lost its venomed sting!

Whose waking is supremely blest:
No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour
That manifests the Saviour's power.

May such a blissful refuge be!
Securely shall my ashes lie,
And wait the summons from on high.

God is Love: His Mercy Brightens

All the path in which we rove;
Bliss He wakes, and woe He lightens:
God is Wisdom, God is Love.

Man decays, and ages move;
But His mercy waneth never;
God is Wisdom, God is Love.
3 E'en the hour that darkest seemeth
Will His changeless goodness prove;
From the gloom His brightness streameth:
God is Wisdom, God is Love.
4 He with earthly cares entwineth
Hope and comfort from above;
Everywhere His glory shineth:
God is Wisdom, God is Love.

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Author: Robert Robinson Hymnal: HOoS1926 #320 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Tune Title: BROCKLESBURY First Line: Come, Thou Fount of ev'ry blessing Lyrics: 1 Come, Thou Fount of eve'y blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
2 Teach me some melodious measure
Sung by flaming tongues above;
O the vast, the boundless treasure
Of Thy free, unchanging love!
3 Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Freely shed His precious blood.
4 O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let that grace, Lord, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to Thee.
5 Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love,
Here's my heart; O take and seal it,
Seal it for Thy courts above.
