Ye Choirs of New Jerusalem
Author: Fulbert of Chartres (?-1028); Robert Campbell (1814-1868) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 68 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 1:15-23 Lyrics: 1 Ye choirs of new Jerusalem,
your sweetest notes employ,
the paschal victory to hymn
in strains of holy joy.
2 For Judah's Lion bursts his chains,
crushing the serpent's head;
and cries aloud through death's domains
to wake the imprisoned dead.
3 Devouring depths of hell their prey
at his command restore;
his ransomed hosts pursue their way
where Jesus goes before.
4 Triumphant in his glory now
to him all power is given;
to him in one communion bow
all saints in earth and heaven.
5 All glory to the Father be,
all glory to the Son,
all glory, Holy Ghost to thee,
while endless ages run. Topics: Easter (season) Used With Tune: ST. FULBERT

Author: Patrick of Ireland (389?-461?); Cecil Frances Alexander (1818-1895) Meter: Irregular Appears in 68 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 1:15-23 Lyrics: 1 I bind unto myself today
the strong name of the Trinity,
by invocation of the same,
the Three-in-One, and One-in-Three.
2 I bind this day to me for ever,
by power of faith, Christ's incarnation,
his baptism in the Jordan river,
his death on cross for my salvation.
His bursting from the spiced tomb,
his riding up the heavenly way,
his coming at the day of doom,
I bind unto myself today.
3 I bind unto myself today
the virtues of the starlit heaven,
the glorious sun's life-giving ray,
the whiteness of the moon at even,
the flashing of the lightning free,
the whirling wind's tempestuous shocks,
the stable earth, the deep salt sea,
around the old eternal rocks.
4 I bind unto myself today
the power of God to hold and lead,
his eye to watch, his might to stay,
his ear to hearken to my need,
the wisdom of my God to teach,
his hand to guide, his shield to ward;
the word of God to give me speech,
his heavenly host to be my guard.
5 Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me,
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.
6 I bind unto myself the name,
the strong name of the Trinity,
by invocation of the same,
the Three-in-One, and One-in-Three.
of whom all nature hath creation,
eternal Father, Spirit, Word.
Praise to the Lord of my salvation,
salvation is of Christ the Lord. Topics: Call and Vocation; Covenant; Ordination; Trinity Used With Tune: ST. PATRICK'S BREASTPLATE

Son of God, eternal Saviour
Author: Somerset Corry Lowry, 1855-1932 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 62 hymnals Scripture: Ephesians 1:20-23 Lyrics: 1 Son of God, eternal Saviour,
source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
hallows all our human race,
Christ our Head, who throned in glory
for your own will ever plead,
fill us with your love and pity,
heal our wrongs, and help our need.
2 As you, Lord, have lived for others
so may we for others live;
freely have your gifts been granted,
freely may your servants give:
yours the gold and yours the silver,
yours the wealth of sea and land,
we but stewards of your bounty
held in trust as from your hand.
3 Come, O Christ, and reign among us
King of love and Prince of peace;
hush the storm of strife and passion,
bid its cruel discords cease;
by your patient years of toiling,
by your silent hours of pain,
quench our fevered thirst of pleasure,
shame our selfish greed of gain.
4 Son of God, eternal Saviour,
source of life and truth and grace,
Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
hallows all our human race,
in your love you prayed the Father
that your people should be one:
grant, O Christ, our hope's fruition,
here on earth your will be done. Topics: Ascension; Ecology; Jesus Christ Incarnation; Jesus Christ Priesthood and Intercession; Repentance; Saints Days and Holy Days St Matthew; Stewardship; Unity of Humanity Used With Tune: POND STREET

And angels praised God in heav’n. (Refrain)

My sins nailed Him there, my burdens He bare.
He suffered all this for me. (Refrain)

To Jesus my life I’ve giv’n. (Refrain)

Grant us your peace; make us so strong and pure
that we may conquerors be, all ills endure.
