Raised between the Earth and Heaven

Author: Wharton Buchanan Smith Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Raised between the earth and heaven, Now our bells are set on high, In the Name of Him Who giveth Skill, and strength, and industry. For His praise we meekly place it As a gift beneath His throne; All their sweet and noblest music Shall resound for Him alone. 2 Faithful men afar shall listen, 'Mid their daily toil or rest, While the melody shall bid them Love the Church where all are blest. They who languish, sick and lonely, Shall be minded, as they sigh, Of the Church's one communion, God's true home and family. 3 When the spirits of the faithful Pass away to light and peace; Solemn tones shall then forewarn us, Soon our life and work must cease. May these loud reverberations, Pealing forth in grand accord, Lift our hearts through joy and sorrow To Thy throne, most gracious Lord. Amen.

Gentle Jesus, Pure And Holy

Author: Charles W. Wendte Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Gentle Jesus, pure and holy, Once Thou wert a little child, Cradled in a manger lowly, O’er it watched Thy mother mild. So while Mary, bending o’er Thee, Waited for the coming morn, Angels sang the joyous story: Lo! The Prince of Peace is born! 2 High in Heav’n’s blue deep above Thee, Rose that bright and morning star; As the wise men knelt before Thee, Bringing treasures from afar; While the happy shepherds following Where the angels led the way; At the shrine they knelt adoring, Where the Babe in beauty lay. 3 Gentle Jesus, pure and holy, Still the angels lead to Thee; And the children follow gladly To the Child of Galilee. Like the wise men, gifts we bring Thee, Like the shepherds, we adore, Like the angels, songs we sing Thee, Love and praise forever more.
