Author: Peter Abelard, 12th cent.; John Mason Neale Hymnal: HTLG2017 #341 (2017) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Person Name: Peter Abelard, 12th cent. Lyrics: 1 Oh, what their joy and their glory must be, those endless Sabbaths the blessed ones see! Crowns for the valiant, to weary ones rest; God shall be all, and in all, ever blest. 2 In new Jerusalem joy shall be found, blessings of peace shall forever abound; wish and fulfillment are not severed there, nor the things prayed for come short of the pray'r. 3 We, where no troubles distraction can bring, safely the anthems of Zion shall sing; while for Your grace, Lord, their voices of praise Your blessed people shall evermore raise. 4 Now let us worship our Lord and our King, joyfully raising our voices to sing: Praise to the Father, and praise to the Son, praise to the Spirit, to God, Three in One.

Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Hymnal: HTLG2017 #120 (2017) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Person Name: Cecil F. Alexander Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David’s city stood a lowly cattle shed, where a mother laid her baby in a manger for His bed: Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all, and His shelter was a stable, and His cradle was a stall: with the poor, and meek, and lowly, lived on earth our Savior holy. 3 And our eyes at last shall see Him, through His own redeeming love; for that child so dear and gentle is our Lord in heav'n above, and He leads His children on to the place where He is gone. 4 Not in that poor lowly stable, with the oxen standing by, we shall see Him, but in heaven, set at God’s right hand on high; when like stars His children crowned all in white shall wait around.

Dying He has death defeated; ris'n He reigns for endless days. Now in heaven interceding, Jesus, Friend of sinners, prays for the weakest, daily pleading; all sufficient is His grace. 3 O that we might know You better, Jesus Christ, our living Lord. Let our love grow daily greater as we hear Your Holy Word. There You have revealed Your glory, there we marvel at Your grace. Feed our souls and make us like You till we see You face to face.

Author: Henry Alford Hymnal: HTLG2017 #299 (2017) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Person Name: Henry Alford Lyrics: 1 Come, ye thankful people, come; raise the song of harvest home. All is safely gathered in ere the winter storms begin. God, our Maker, doth provide for our wants to be supplied; come to God's own temple, come, raise the song of harvest home. 2 All the world is God's own field, fruit unto His praise to yield, wheat and tares together sown, unto joy or sorrow grown. First the blade, and then the ear, then the full corn shall appear, Lord of harvest, grant that we wholesome grain and pure may be. 3 For the Lord our God shall come and shall take His harvest home; from His field shall in that day all offenses purge away, give His angels charge at last in the fire the tares to cast, but the fruitful ears to store in His garner evermore. 4 Even so, Lord, quickly come to Thy final harvest home; gather Thou Thy people in, free from sorrow, free from sin, there forever purified, in Thy presence to abide. Come, with all Thine angels, come, raise the glorious harvest home. Topics: Commission Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE'S WINDSOR

O wondrous Child Of the virgin undefiled! Though by all the world disowned, still to be in heav'n enthroned. 4 From the Father forth He came and returneth to the same, captive leading death and hell-- high the song of triumph swell! 5 Thou the Father's only Son, hast o'er sin the victory won. Boundless shall Thy kingdom be; when shall we its glories see? 6 Brightly doth Thy manger shine, glorious is its light divine. Let not sin o'ercloud this light; ever be our faith thus bright. 7 Praise to God the Father sing, Praise to God the Son, our King, Praise to God the Spirit be ever and eternally.
