A Babe is born in Bethlehem

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #297 (1898) Meter: 8.4.8.8 Tune Title: A BABE IS BORN IN BETHLEHEM 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 mighty fortress is our God

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #270 (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Tune Title: A MIGHTY FORTRESS IS OUR GOD 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 slumber I know, in Jesus' name

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #211 (1898) Meter: 9.8.9.8.9.8 Tune Title: A SLUMBER I KNOW, IN JESUS' NAME 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

My life is hid in Jesus

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #117 (1898) Meter: 7.6.7.6 Tune Title: ABIDE WITH US, OUR SAVIOUR Lyrics: 1 My life is hid in Jesus, And death is gain to me; Then, whensoe'er He pleases, I meet it willingly. 2 For Christ, my Lord and Brother, I leave this world so dim, And gladly seek that other, Where I shall be with Him. 3 My woes are nearly over, Though long and dark the road; My sin His merits cover, And I have peace with God. 4 Lord, when my powers are failing, My breath comes heavily, And words are unavailing, O hear my sighs to Thee! 5 When mind, and thought, O Saviour, Are flickering, like a light That to and fro doth waver, Ere 'tis extinguished quite; 6 In that last hour, O grant me To slumber soft and still, No doubts to vex or haunt me, Safe anchored on Thy will; 7 And so to Thee still cleaving Through all death's agony, To fall asleep believing, And wake in heaven with Thee. 8 Amen! Thou Christ, my Saviour, Wilt grant this unto me: Thy Spirit lead me ever, That I fare happily. Topics: Heavenly-Mindedness; Sickness, Death, and Burial Languages: English

Delay not, delay not, O sinner, draw near

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #160 (1898) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Tune Title: ADESTE FIDELES Lyrics: 1 Delay not, delay not, O sinner, draw near, The waters of life are now flowing for thee; No price is demanded, the Saviour is here; Redemption is purchased, salvation is free. Redemption is purchased, salvation is free. 5 Delay not, delay not, why longer abuse The love and compassion of Jesus, thy God? A fountain is opened; how canst thou refuse To wash and be cleansed in His pardoning blood? To wash and be cleansed in His pardoning blood? 3 Delay not, delay not, O sinner, to come, For mercy still lingers, and calls thee to-day; Her voice is not heard in the shades of the tomb; Her message, unheeded, will soon pass away. Her message, unheeded, will soon pass away. 4 Delay not, delay not, the Spirit of grace, Long grieved and resisted, may take His sad flight, And leave thee in darkness to finish thy race, To sink in the gloom of eternity’s night. To sink in the gloom of eternity’s night.
