Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence
Author: Gerard Moultrie Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 172 hymnals Matching Instances: 112 Lyrics: 1. Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
and with fear and trembling stand;
ponder nothing earthly-minded,
for with blessing in his hand,
Christ our God to earth descendeth,
our full homage to demand.
2. King of kings, yet born of Mary,
as of old on earth he stood,
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
in the body and the blood;
he will give to all the faithful
his own self for heavenly food.
3. Rank on rank the host of heaven
spreads its vanguard on the way,
as the Light of light descendeth
from the realms of endless day,
that the powers of hell may vanish
as the darkness clears away.
4. At his feet the six-winged seraph,
cherubim, with sleepless eye,
veil their faces to the presence,
as with ceaseless voice they cry:
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia, Lord Most High!

Lo! He Comes with Clouds Descending
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 768 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 Lo! He comes with clouds descending,
Once for favored sinners slain;
Thousand thousand saints attending
Swell the triumph of his train:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ the Lord returns to reign.
2 Every eye shall now behold him
Robed in dreadful majesty;
Those who set at naught and sold him,
Pierced and nailed him to the tree,
Deeply wailing, deeply wailing,
Shall the true Messiah see!
3 Those blest tokens of his passion,
Glorified, his body bears,
Cause of endless adoration
By his ransomed worshipers.
With what rapture, with what rapture
Gaze we on those glorious scars!
4 Yea, Amen! Let all adore thee,
High on thine eternal throne;
Savior, take the power and glory;
Claim the Kingdom for thine own.
O come quickly! O come quickly!
Alleluia! Come, Lord, come!

you who saw the dark of prison,
you who knew the price of faith:
touch our world of sad oppression
with your Spirit's healing breath.

you whose hands were nailed to wood;

you who shed the tears and blood:
move in us the power of pity
restless for the common good.

quick to hear, to act, to plead;
make us truly sisters, brothers
of whatever race or creed:

Sing, My Tongue, the Glorious Battle
Author: Venantius Fortunatus; Percy Dearmer; John M. Neale Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 13 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1. Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle,
Sing the ending of the fray;
Now above the cross, the trophy,
Sound the loud triumphant lay:
Tell how Christ the world’s Redeemer,
As a victim won the day.
2. He, our maker, deeply grieving
That the first made Adam fell,
When he ate the fruit forbidden
Whose reward was death and hell,
Marked e’en then this tree the ruin
Of the first tree to dispel.
3. Tell how, when at length the fullness,
Of th’appointed time was come,
Christ, the Word, was born of woman,
Left for us His heavenly home;
Showed us human life made perfect,
Shone as light amid the gloom.
4. Lo! He lies an Infant weeping,
Where the narrow manger stands,
While the mother-maid His members
Wraps in mean and lowly bands,
And the swaddling clothes is winding
Round His helpless feet and hands.
5. Thus, with thirty years accomplished,
Went He forth from Nazareth,
Destined, dedicated, willing,
Wrought His work, and met His death.
Like a lamb He humbly yielded
On the cross His dying breath.
6. There the nails and spears He suffers,
Vinegar, and gall, and reed;
From His sacred body piercèd
Blood and water both proceed;
Precious flood, which all creation
From the stain of sin hath freed.
7. Faithful cross, thou sign of triumph,
Now for us the noblest tree,
None in foliage, none in blossom,
None in fruit thy peer may be;
Symbol of the world’s redemption,
For the weight that hung on thee!
8. Bend thy boughs, O tree of glory!
Thy relaxing sinews bend;
For awhile the ancient rigor
That thy birth bestowed, suspend;
And the King of heavenly beauty
On thy bosom gently tend!
9. Thou alone wast counted worthy
This world’s ransom to sustain,
That a shipwrecked race forever
Might a port of refuge gain,
With the sacred blood anointed
Of the Lamb of sinners slain.
10. To the Trinity be glory
Everlasting, as is meet:
Equal to the Father, equal
To the Son, and Paraclete:
God the Three in One, whose praises
All created things repeat. Used With Tune: PICARDY
Sing, My Tongue, the Glorious Battle
