A Babe is born in Bethlehem

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #297 (1898) Meter: 8.4.8.8 Lyrics: 1 A Babe is born in Bethlehem, In Bethlehem, Therefore rejoice, Jerusalem. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! 2 He doth within a manger lie, A manger lie, Whose throne is set above the sky. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! 3 Stillness was all the manger round, The manger round, The creature its Creator found. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! 4 The wise men came, led by the star, Led by the star, Gold, myrrh, and incense, brought from far. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! 5 His mother is the Virgin mild, The Virgin mild, And He the Father’s only Child. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! 6 The serpent’s wound He beareth not, He beareth not, Yet takes our blood, and shares our lot. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! 7 Our human flesh He enters in, He enters in, But bears no single taint of sin. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! 8 To fallen man Himself He bowed, Himself He bowed, That He might lift us up to God. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! 9 On this most blessed Jubilee, Best jubilee, All glory be, O God, to Thee. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! 10 O Holy Three, we Thee adore, We Thee adore, This day, henceforth, for evermore. Hallelujah, Hallelujah!

A hymn of glory let us sing

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #13 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 A hymn of glory let us sing; New hymns throughout the world shall ring; By a new way none ever trod, Christ mounteth to the throne of God. 2 May our affections thither tend, And thither constantly ascend, Where, seated on the Father's throne, Thee reigning in the heavens we own! 3 Be Thou our present joy, O Lord, Who wilt be ever our reward: And as the countless ages flee, May all our glory be in Thee!

A mighty fortress is our God

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #270 (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God, A trusty shield and weapon; Our help is He in all our need, Our stay, whate'er doth happen. The old malignant foe Doth seek to work us woe; His craft and power are great, And, armed with cruel hate, On earth is not his equal. 2 With might of ours naught can be done, Soon were our loss effected; But for us fights the Valiant One, Whom God Himself elected. Ask ye who this may be? Christ Jesus, it is He; Lord Sabaoth is His name, From age to age the same,-- He holds the field forever. 3 And were the world with devils filled, All eager to devour us, Our souls to fear should little yield, They cannot overpower us. The prince of darkness grim, We tremble not for him; His rage we can endure, For lo! his doom is sure, One little word can fell him. 4 The Word they still shall let abide, Nor thanks be due them for it; The Lord of hosts is by our side, Grants us His gifts and Spirit; And though they take our life, Goods, honor--children, wife, Yet, when their worst is done, They still have nothing won: The Kingdom ours remaineth.

A pilgrim and a stranger

A slumber I know, in Jesus' name

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #211 (1898) Meter: 9.8.9.8.9.8 Lyrics: 1 A slumber I know, in Jesus' name, A rest from all toil and sorrow; Earth tenderly takes my weary frame, To sleep till the blissful morrow; In heaven my soul with God abides, Forgotten are cares and trials. 2 An even I know, serene and blest, And oft is my spirit longing, When, weary and worn, it finds no rest, While woes on the way are thronging,-- Oft longing to see the journey's end, And rest in a blissful slumber. 3 A morning I know, so bright and fair, When tidings of joy shall wake us, When anthems from high shall fill the air, And God to His glory take us, when Jesus shall bid us rise from sleep-- How joyous that hour of awaking! 4 Oh, dear is that morning fair to me! And oft, o'er the mountains beaming, In spirit its heavenly light I see, As golden the peaks are gleaming-- For joy I must sing, as birds at dawn Their carols in lofty lindens. 5 The Saviour then comes unto our graves; His mighty command is given: Then break from the deep the ocean waves, Each tomb and restraint is riven. All earth hears the cry: Ye dead, come forth! In glory we go to meet Him. 6 Then open the heavenly portals wide, The names of God's saints are given. God grant that we all in faith abide, And rise to the bliss of heaven! Our Father, may we in that great hour Find none of our dear ones missing! 7 O Saviour, when darkens life's last day, And Death in his bonds me keepeth, Come unto my bed, in mercy say: The child is not dead, but sleepeth. Then grant me Thy grace, that I arise To praise Thee in life eternal. Topics: Resurrection of the Dead; Sickness, Death, and Burial Languages: English Tune Title: A SLUMBER I KNOW, IN JESUS' NAME

Abide with me! fast falls the eventide

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #155 (1898) Lyrics: 1 Abide with me! fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide! When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me! 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O Thou who changest not, abide with me! 3 Come not in terrors as the King of kings, But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings, Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea; O Friend of sinners, thus abide with me! 4 Thou on my head in every youth didst smile, And, though rebellious and perverse meanwhile, Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee; On to the close, O Lord, abide with me! 5 I need Thy presence every passing hour; What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me! 6 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless; Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness; Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me! 7 Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes, Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies; Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!
