Light of the Gentile nations

Author: Miss Winkworth; John Frank Hymnal: Church Book #144 (1890) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 Thou Light of Gentile nations, Thy people's joy and love! Drawn by Thy Spirit hither, We gladly come to prove Thy presence in Thy temple, And wait with earnest mind, As Simeon once had waited His Saviour God to find. 2 Yes, Lord, Thy servants meet Thee, Even now, in every place Where Thy true Word hath promised That they should see Thy face. Thou yet wilt gently grant us, Who gather round Thee here, In faith's strong arms to bear Thee, As once that aged seer. 3 Be Thou our Joy, our Brightness, That shines mid pain and loss, Our Sun in times of terror, The glory round our cross: A glow in sinking spirits, A sunbeam in distress, Physician, Friend in sickness, In death our happiness. 4 Let us, O Lord, be faithful With Simeon to the end, That so his dying song may From all our hearts ascend: "O Lord, let now Thy servant Depart in peace for aye, Since I have seen my Saviour And here beheld His day." 5 My Saviour, I behold Thee Now with the eye of Faith: No foe of Thee can rob me, Though bitter words he saith. Within Thy heart abiding, As Thou dost dwell in me, No pain, no death has terrors To part my soul from Thee! Topics: Epiphany Languages: English Tune Title: WIE SOLL ICH DICH EMPFANGEN

Let me be Thine forever

Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #156 (1893) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 LET me be Thine forever, Thou faithful God and Lord; Let me forsake Thee never Nor wander from Thy Word, Lord, do not let me waver, But give me steadfastness, And for such grace forever Thy holy name I'll bless. 2 Lord Jesus, my Salvation, My Light, my Life divine, My only Consolation, O make me wholly Thine! For Thou hast dearly bought me With blood and bitter pain; Let me, since Thou hast sought me, Eternal life obtain. 3 And Thou, O Holy Spirit, My Comforter and Guide, Grant that in Jesus' merit I always may confide, Him to the end confessing, Whom I have known by faith. Give me Thy constant blessing, And grant a Christian death. Topics: The Word and the Church Loyalty Languages: English

How Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #159 (1894) Meter: 7.6 Lyrics: 1 We praise Thy grace, O Saviour, That beareth with us long, And ever out of weakness Thy servants maketh strong. 2 The saint, who left his comrades, And turned back from the fight, Behold at last victorious In Thy prevailing might! 3 From Thee, Lord, came the courage Once more to front the host: Thy strength, most mighty Savior, In weakness shineth most. 4 Thy love Saint Mark hath numbered Among the blessèd four, And all the world rejoiceth To learn his Gospel-lore. 5 O Lord, our human weakness With pitying eye behold; Uplift the fainting spirit, And make the coward bold. 6 O Jesu, glorious Victor O'er all the hosts of sin, In us Thy strength make perfect, In us the victory win. Amen. Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts St. Mark Languages: English Tune Title: [We praise Thy grace O Saviour]
