Praise we the Lord this day
Author: Anon. Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 51 hymnals Matching Instances: 10 Lyrics: 1 Praise we the Lord this day,
This day so long foretold,
Whose promise shone with cheering ray
On waiting saints of old.
2 The prophet gave the sign
For faithful men to read;
A virgin born of David's line,
Shall bear the promised Seed.
3 Ask not how this should be,
But worship and adore,
Like her whom heaven's majesty
Came down to shadow o'er.
4 Meekly she bowed her head
To hear the gracious word,
Mary, the pure and lowly maid,
The favoured of the Lord.
5 Blessèd shall be her name
In all the Church on earth,
Through whom that wondrous mercy came,
The incarnate Saviour's birth.
Amen. Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts The Anunciation Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE

How welcome was the call
We give thee but thine own
Author: William Walsham How, 1823 - 97 Appears in 478 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1 We give thee but thine own,
Whate'er the gift may be;
All that we have is thine alone,
A trust, O Lord, from thee.
2 May we thy bounties thus
As stewards true receive,
And gladly, as thou blessest us,
To thee our first-fruits give.
3 O hearts are bruised and dead,
And homes are bare and cold,
And lambs for whom the Shepherd bled
Are straying from the fold. A-men.
4 To comfort and to bless,
To find a balm for woe,
To tend the lone and fatherless,
Is angels' work below.
5 The captive to release,
To God the lost to bring,
To teach the way of life and peace,
It is a Christlike thing.
6 And we believe thy word,
Though dim our faith may be;
Whate'er for thine we do, O Lord,
We do it unto thee.
Amen. Topics: The Church Worship - The Day's Work; The Life In Christ Service Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE (ST. OLAVE)

Sweet feast of love divine
God from on high hath heard!
Author: Charles Coffin, 1676-1749; James Russell Woodford, 1820-1885 Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 36 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 God from on high hath heard!
Let sighs and sorrows cease!
Lo! from the opening heaven descends
to man the promised peace.
2 Hark! through the silent night
angelic voices swell;
their joyful songs proclaim that God
is born on earth to dwell.
3 See how the shepherd-band
speed on with eager feet;
come to the hallowed cave with them
the holy Babe to greet.
4 But O what sight appears
within that lowly door!
A manger, stall, and swaddling clothes,
a child and mother poor!
5 Art thou the Christ? The Son?
The Father’s image bright?
And see we him whose arm upholds
earth and the starry height?
6 Yea, faith can pierce the cloud
which veils thy glory now;
we hail Thee God, before whose throne
the angels prostrate bow.
7 Our sinful pride to cure
with that pure love of thine,
O be thou born within our hearts,
most holy Child divine. Topics: Hymns for the Church Year Christmas Used With Tune: ST GEORGE (GAUNTLETT)
