I Cannot Tell
Author: William Y. Fullerton Hymnal: TWC #109 (1990) Meter: 11.10.11.10 D First Line: I cannot tell why he whom angels worship Lyrics: 1 I cannot tell why he whom angels worship
should come in flesh as prophets long foretold,
or why the Shepherd longs to save the wanderers
and bring them back rejoicing to the fold.
But this I know, that he was born of Mary
when Bethlehem's manger was his only home,
and that he lived at Nazareth and labored,
and so the promised Savior of the world is come.
2 I cannot tell how silently he suffered
as with his peace he graced this place of tears,
or how his heart upon the cross was broken,
the crown of pain to three and thirty years.
But this I know, he heals the broken-hearted,
and stays our sin, and calms our lurking fear,
and lifts the burden from the heavy laden,
for still the suffering Savior of the world is here.
3 I cannot tell how he will win the nations,
how he will claim his earthly heritage,
how satisfy the needs and aspirations
of east and west, of sinner and of sage.
But this I know, all flesh shall see his glory,
and he shall reap the harvest he has sown,
and some glad day his sun shall shine in splendor,
when he, the risen Savior of the world, is known.
4 I cannot tell how all the lands shall worship
when at his bidding,every storm is stilled,
or who can say how great the jubilation
when all our hearts with love for him are filled.
But this I know, the skies will thrill with rapture,
and countless voices then will join to sing,
and earth to heaven, and heaven to earth will answer:

Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee
Author: Edward Caswall Hymnal: TWC #112 (1990) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the very thought of thee
with sweetness fills my breast;
but sweeter far thy face to see,
and in thy presence rest.
2 No voice can sing, no heart can frame,
nor can the mind recall
a sweeter sound than thy blest name,
O Savior of us all!
3 O hope of every contrite heart,
O joy of all the meek,
to those who ask, how kind thou art,
how good to those who seek!
4 But what to those who find? Ah, this
no tongue or pen can show;
the love of Jesus, what it is
none but his loved ones know.
5 Jesus, our only joy be thou,
as thou our prize wilt be;
in thee be all our glory now,
and through eternity.

Fairest Lord Jesus
Author: Anonymous; Joseph A. Seiss, 1823-1904 Hymnal: TWC #115 (1990) Meter: 5.6.8.5.5.8 Lyrics: 1 Fairest Lord Jesus, ruler of all nature,
O thou of God and man the Son,
thee will I cherish, thee will I honor,
thou, my soul's glory, joy, and crown!
2 Fair are the meadows, fairer still the woodlands,
robed in the blooming garb of spring:
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer
who makes the woeful heart to sing.
3 Fair is the sunshine, fairer still the moonlight,
and all the twinkling, starry host:
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer,
than all the angels heaven can boast.

Son of God and Son of Man!
Glory and honor, praise, adoration,
now and forevermore be thine!

Jesus, Priceless Treasure
Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: TWC #119 (1990) Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.7.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless treasure,
source of purest pleasure,
truest friend to me:
Ah, how long I've panted,
and my heart has fainted,
thirsting, Lord, for Thee!
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb;
I will suffer nought to hide thee,
nought I ask beside thee.
2 In thine arms I rest me;
foes who would molest me
cannot reach me here.
Though the earth be shaking,
every heart be quaking,
Jesus calms my fear.
Sin and hell in conflict fell
with their bitter storms assail me,
Jesus will not fail me.
3 Hence, all fear and sadness,
for the Lord of gladness,
Jesus, enters in.
Those who love the Father,
though the storms may gather,
still have peace within.
Yea, whate'er I here must bear,
still in thee lies purest pleasure,
Jesus, priceless treasure!
